on this site is growing a back bone. uh ohhh. Good one though, I mean the Raps have been around since 1996 and Cavs,, 1970? Oh and we didn't have the best player in the league on our team for 7 years.
Cleveland is about as appealing as masturbating with sandpaper.

What you do on your own time about masturbating with sandpaper, keep that shit to yourself...no one cares!
And I have never been on here bragging up the Cavs, so I am not even sure where or why you are trying to start something with me. I have never not admitted that the Cavs have stunk it up in the NBA.
In fact, I have stated a few times how I do not blame LeBron James for leaving. I have told people, put yourself in his place, you tried for 7 years and still could not win it all. How long do you continue trying before you say enough is enough.
So I am not sure what the basis of your argument is.
I can tell you, you keep running your fucking mouth though and calling me a twat and shit when you know nothing about me, you will find out how much of a backbone I have if I ever meet your fat ass in person!

Whoa whoa whoa, how is it not a back track? Cmon now Dave, he was saving face, a ton of athletes do it.
i said first thing the next morning (go back thru and find it if you'd like, it was response to VVV i believe who brought it up) that i felt people were taking what he said way out of context (as did many other people). i stated that if he said what others were inferring what he said that i would stop supporting LeBron because it's about as lowlife of a thing as you can possibly say. Believing in yourself, being confident/arrogant is one thing, but putting down others (in a blanket statement like that) is another thing completely and i would never support anyone who does that.
suddenly people know what LeBron meant more than he knows what he meant.
i know i'm late, but he was frustrated and I'm as close to certain as I can be from doing hundreds of interviews that he changed paths in that post-game comment from the "well their lives suck anyways so they can keep hating" to a more PC statement but it was clear where he was going and that just makes him a prick. I'm still thinking he wants to be loved but he has too much pride to admit it
...if you don't take him #1 you're a lunatic tho

you also need to compare the ballparks in this one.
Seattle's totals are usually from 6.5 to as high as 8, while you will hardly anything close to that in the Bronx considering Beckett-Sabathia last week was 8.
So a Seattle ballpark sitting at 7 runs compared to Yankee Stadium at 9, plus a weaker team and a division of hitters parks (besides the Trop) compared to a division of pitcher's parks (besides Arlington) and those numbers can get skewed even more.
Jeter has certainly been an awesome hitter for a really long time, but in terms of hitting only I'd favor Ichiro. He's also a much better fielder in the current, but SS is certainly a harder position to play as you get older and your range decreases

Regardless, i'm not saying you're wrong if you think ichiro is a better hitter, with a gun to my head if asked before I saw numbers I would have said ichiro also.
After looking at the numbers and seeing that Ichiro has a lower ops (forget about obs, thats not as important when comparing overall hitting) I just cant agree that 'its not even close'
Then again you're just like a jv coach or some shit, right

Their OPS+ is almost identical over their average 162 game sample size.
Remember, Jeter plays in a very hitter friendly park for slugging compared to Seattle (OPS+ is ballpark adjusted).

I'd also throw behind Ichiro the fact that he's been on some offensively punch-less teams for much of his career. Jeter has a lot more protection in the Bronx.

I told my girl when he rolled up to the wedding wedding (he ended up at our table) that guy has some sick shoes and slacks on and he looks like this guy Derron Williams for the Nets. So finally after a few drinks before we get to our table I say "dude you look just like Derron Williams" and he replies "yeah I get that a lot."
Turns out I cant afford his slacks or his shoes

boy sure making alot out of nothing in the ichiro/jeter thing.
the only comment ever made that has been in disagreement was BFIVL saying 'not even close', which i said seems like a stretch.
