Does LTR Bash the Yankees?

[love_that_reefer]

I was just wondering how many people think I bash the Yankees at every turn. Nyjunc seems to confuse my being critical of certain moves the Yankees make with straight up bashing them for no reason. He keeps crying and *****ing so I am moving this to the smack talk. I don't want other real threads being closed over nyjunc being ignorant. I give my opinions but some can't handle them so I put it to you guys. Keep in mind I love guys like Jeter, I think Arod is one of the best ever(regular season), The late 90's dynasty was fun to watch, loved Bernie, Mo, Pettitte, Wells and Posada and I love the history. Do I bash the Yankees?

I think the only team LTR bashes just to bash is San Diego.

And I think that's only to stick it to pff

Oh, give yourself some credit!! I do give props to the Padres when they deserve don't I?

You are the biggestest Yankees hater since George Steinbren.....o wait. nvm. lolzezlolz

[GiantsFanatic]

Yeah man, your just jealous of the evil empire!

In all seriousness, LTR is one of the best posters we have on this site.

He posts news in pretty much every team forum and when you read his comments on the news, whether it be a good or bad opinion of it, you'd swear he was a fan of that team. (a happy fan if it's a good comment, a disgruntled fan if it's a bad one.)

Being critical of a bad team isn't wrong at all, he's critical of Boston, sandiego, San fran among... He's just saying what mves he disagrees with which is what we all should do, defend the moves we like and voice our displeasure at ones we don't... If that makes me a basher so be it... That would be a badge of honor in my book

Don't confuse being active w/ being the best, I'm more of a quality over quantity type of person. His type is needed at every good board and he can be a good poster at times but once he starts losing an argument he goes right into the personal attacks. I don't recall ever having a problem w/ him until recently, I don't have problems w/ people rationally criticizing the Yankees and they deserve it this year BUT he's always bashing the Yanks(and then the jets after the Favre move).

I agree w/ you but when a person claims he doesn't have bias but it's obvious in his posts thats where I have a probelm. If he was honest I would never have gotten into it w/ him.

I notcied it's pretty much all Yankee haters who voted, the poll is meanignless. Go view SOME of his posts that I posted in the Caberra/Sexon thread in the Yankee forum.

First off the Farve move was terrible. There team isn't built to win now, they will go 9-7 at best and miss the playoffs and then you have to deal with the whole is Farve going to retire story. I'd rather develop a young QB for the future cause the present isn't the time for the jets.

2nd, I didn't know that a Padres and Twins fan suddenly became the worse enemies of the Evil Empire

3rd, He's had a right to bash the Yankees for the last 8 years cause they have the highest payroll by far but still can't win the World Series

Wait a minute, I said I was going to bash the Yankees. Also did you read how I posted it? At one point I was without question the biggest Yankee basher here. Ask the fellas how I backed off. Now I might be once or twice a year I take a shot at the Yankees, compared to every chance I could get a year or two ago.


All I was doing yesterday was to lighten the mood between LTR and NYJ..

While I agree he does have a propensity to get into the personal attacks deep into debates a bit too much he more than makes up for it with his activity and stating an actual opinion on news he posts. (As opposed to just posting an article and a link like a lot of people do, myself included.)

It seems like he's "always" bashing the Yankees because they deserve a lot of criticism this year.

If I recall correctly he's praised the Yankees on more than one occasion regarding the Xavier Nady trade.
