Nationals Strike Again

Re: Nationals Strike Again

Strange, very strange. If their fan base will not support their team then they have to go somewhere. Blame ownership if you want but don't blame the city they went to.

Exactly. I said the same to him before.

Like I said, I lived through it as a 12 year old when the Senators left town. Can you imagine having Ted Williams as your Manager and hero and he leaves for Texas. It sucked. I never blamed Texas, I blamed the lousy owner Robert Short!!!!

Re: Nationals Strike Again

Now that is funny. By the way, a majestic HR tonight by Adam Dunn. The HR ball sat in the centerfield grass and was retrieved by the authenticator!!!! I want that ball!!!!

Heard about the HR. Hope to see it on ESPN. Going to send my helmet and hats off to that signing Dunn is doing in May.

Re: Nationals Strike Again

Brett - He is not being sarcastic or funny. He seriously hates the Nationals because he was a huge Expos fan and holds the Nationals responsible.

It is ridiculous. Read some of his old posts and inaccurate #'s on attendence.

He tried to be a revisionist to the Expos history. Those of us in Washington that are in our 40's or older met the same fate with the Washington Senators. It sucks to lose your team. You find allegiance in another team or become a multi-millionaire and buy your own team. To blame the new franchise is ridiculous.

Re: Nationals Strike Again

Dirty's posts are usually directed towards venting about the Expos move to Washington DC. Somehow, he believes that venting here about Nats' early woes means something... Problem is, nobody here has a clue, including I, what he is trying to communicate...

He's best off ignored.

I thought he was being sacrastic? Am I the only one who saw it that way???

Re: Nationals Strike Again

I might get some heat but Dukes has a job. His job is a pro baseball player and he should show up on time to his job.

End of story.

Bob,

You are 100% right. I guess it's just pathetic to take something good like an MLB player giving up their time for some kids and trying to piss all over it. There were plenty of things I wanted to say, but I tried to respect the forum rules. Some people just live a sad, bitter life.

Re: Nationals Strike Again

I'm not even a nats fan, but what generosity shown by dukes to give up his time for a little league team, and the team to give up $500 as a thank you. Your posts are absolutely stupid.

Moderators: what does this crap have to do with game used memorabilia?
