From NBCs baseball blog
TimV
is having to watch Jeff Francoeur try to play every day:
Desperate times call for desperate measures, so Braves right fielder Jeff
Francoeur said he'll wear the same underwear to Turner Field Tuesday that he
wore on Sunday. He claimed the Braves are 7-0 when he wears his
Thanksgiving-themed "turkey underwear" to the ballpark.
For a team that has a disappointing 35-40 overall record, that 7-0 mark is
no small feat. The Braves open a three-game series against NL East leader
Philadelphia on Tuesday.
Francoeur said he had not worn the turkey briefs for back-to-back games all
season, but will Tuesday (the Braves were off Monday, and he planned to ask
his wife, Catie, to wash the underwear).
Note that the article doesn't say that Francoeur plays better in the gobbler
skivvies, only that the team does. Given his performance (.248/.283/.347),
maybe the Braves would be better off by simply keeping the underwear around
and ditching Francoeur. At least the underwear seems to ad some sort of
value.

Doesn't sound like the God you've espoused.

I'm pretty sure that Marty has never claimed to actually *be* God.
s/

Of course not, I was kidding. But theologically speaking punishment
for doing right would only come from man, not God, and that is a very
small thing to me. So yeah, anyone can get punished for doing nice
things (not that what I was doing was pure as the wind-driven snow),
but it's a fallen world, it comes with the territory. One can not
expect righteous judgment here on Earth. Christ has already received
the punishment for his chosen, there is no condemnation for them.

If you can't successfully spell Maddux or Glavine it's a wonder you

picking a favorite player to follow is inferior to your decision to

I'm speaking of the righteous creator of the Earth who has for a time
allowed the wheat and tares to grow together. But His patience will
not last forever. Flee the wrath to come. Who did you suspect I was
talking about?

Matter can neither be created nor destroyed. Everything tends towards
disorder, not order. Life can not come from no-life. The creator of
the world and life itself is God. To say there is no proof is just
willful ignorance. Evidence shows that to be par for the course for
you so far (I hope against hope that will change).
You on the other hand are much harder to prove. You appear only as a
series of characters on a newsgroup, a light mist at best,
indistinguishable from a bad dream. From dust you came and from dust
you will return, soon forgotten. Who will even bother to ask if there
really was a lookout?
Tarkus
Guess the joke about that last line went over your head.
Marty Winn
I guess I must have, I wrote this response several times and almost
trashed it altogether as I was unable to parse it fully. I concluded
that I was being accused of thinking I was God and thus the
distributor of punishment. Sam stepped in and said in essence while
Marty might make all sorts of wild claims he does not go so far as to
actually claim to be God.
It's embarassing to have to have a joke explained to me (that's 2 in
one week for me, need to get more sleep) but I can live with never
fully understanding this one if necessary. Hope it's just some movie
reference I don't know rather than something more basic than that.
Tarkus
The operative word is "dead".
Lookout
The spelling isn't important to me because I'm not a FANATIC. I'm
simply a fan. But we know you had to find something to whine about and
you're trolling for attention so the best you could do is find a
spelling error.
You don't pick a player...you have a 11 year old's infatuation with an
athlete. It's really childish for an adult to get so wrapped up in
another person.

I find it easy to believe you are the type of person who believes
truth is determined by majority vote. Of course forget hoping that
you would deal with the substance of my arguments. Long before God
becomes a farcical idea one must deal with the origins or life and
matter.

Again being in the minority is often the correct and true stance to
take. I suspect that not understanding this is a majority opinion,
just the place for you. I'm not at all sure the burden of proof falls
on me here. I say God made everything, you say that everything cam
from nothing, life came from no life, and design happened without a
designer. I think you have the tenuous position. FWIW you're = you
are.

I did not say you don't exist. I said that the evidence of your
existence is much weaker than the evidence of God's existence. To put
it in an argument you would understand. More people believe in the
existence of God than believe in you. You are in the minority.

Some spelling errors are understandable. Our soon to be X right
fielder, the former Brave first baseman with cancer, the Twins 1B.
These are hard names. Andy Pettitte is another. I'm a horrible
speller myself. If I don't look it up I'm going to mess up double
letter spellings often. But some things are so basic that they
clearly either manifest a child at the keyboard or a troll. Cal
Ripkin, Greg Maddox, Roger Clemons, Tom Glavin. These types of errors
are not based in hurry or forgetfulness. They are based in ignorance
or immaturity. Tell me you are 14 or just learned English and I
understand. Otherwise you are clearly a troll.
Also It's mind-numbingly obvious that fan is short for fanatic. It's
like saying you have lots of RAM but no Random Access Memory, you are
a fan of the Nats but not the Nationals, you're a homo but not a
homosexual. They mean the same thing, they are the same thing.
I suspect that others would finger you as the troll. I strongly
suspect a clear majority would say so.
I'm not sure if you are arguing that (1) it is wrong to show more
interest in one player than any other player on a team (because that's
immature) or (2) if you are arguing, yeah you can do that but not so
much you have become too fanatical, or (3) if you are arguing that you
can't even care about players it must be the team, the laundry. Not
that any of these arguments make sense to me. Stirring up trouble on
a newsgroup featuring a subject you know precious little about is much
more mature.
I believe it's a rare fan that does not have a favorite player, if you
want to argue 95% of sports fans are immature, okay. Obviously if you
have a favorite tennis player, golfer, race car driver, biker you fall
in the same category. "I just like to watch them play, I don't care
who wins." Personally, I like to watch excellence and I have limited
time so I specialize my time, increase the like-hood I will see
something great. I watched Clemens, Pedro, Randy, and Maddux as often
as possible. I wouldn't turn the dial if Bonds or Pujols was up to
the plate because it's an opportunity to see something extraordinary.
I've been blessed to follow Maddux and Marino and to a lesser extent
Murphy, Dominique Wilkens, and Niekro. I hope to catch lightning in a
bottle again and get to see excellence on my team. It might be Tommy
Hanson who can do it. If hoping this is immaturity then I am guilty.
Either way you are a troll.

Wrong. A fan is someone who likes something. A FANATIC is someone who
is FANATICAL..that means beyond a fan. EVERYONE knows that but
FANATICS won't admit it. Cheeseheads are FANATICS. The idiots who
paint their faces the team colors are FANATICS. And an adult who fawns
over a pro player is a FANATIC..in your cause an immature adult with
no life.

As is the case most of the time, you're an ignorant troll.
There are +/- 2.1 billion Christians in the world. That accounts for
roughly a third of the human population.
Following in second is Islam with +/- 1.5 million adherents, for a 20%
share of the shaved ape family. Then Hinduism (+/- 900M),
"traditional Chinese religion" (+/- 395M), Buddhism (+/- 375M),
"primal/indigenous" including African natural religions (300-400M,
depending on how you count subsets.) At that point you fall off into
your second-tier "major world religions" like Sikhism (mystical Islam,
23M), Spiritism (15M depending on how you count subsets) and Judiaism
(14M.) Ba'hai, Shinto and Jainism come in +/- 5M each. 2.5M
Zorastarians, 2M Tenrikyo, 1M Neo-Pagans, 800K Universalist
Unitarians, 600K Rastafarians and, regretfully, a good half mil
Scientologists.
If you combine ALL POSSIBLE categories of "non-believers" into one
slice of the pie you get about a billion people. Now, half of those
self describe as "theistic, non-religious" so you're really not out of
the believer categories yet.
The point, of course, is that "most of the world" are Christians, and
doesn't think Christians are nuts. If you add up the Christians and
Muslims (who, in case you were wondering, believe everything
Christians believe except that bit about Christ) you've accounted for
more than half of the hairless apes on the planet.
You're an idiot. Your children should be ashamed of you.
