We are watching a AAA team

[Cranny]

AAA team with an A ball manager. Not a good combination.

Disagree with the first, agree with the second.

Glad we agree on something.

With trying to compete on a Major League level.

This team is hard to watch. This is likely the first year (excluding Covid time) since the late 70's that I won't go to a Cardinals game. I did go to Busch to see the Savannah Bananas.

I haven’t been to a game since the Wild Card Series in 2022, so my daughter and I could see Pujols & Yadi one last time. Haven’t watched nine innings combined in the last three seasons. This franchise is a shell of its former self.

They did, and that’s why I have him on ignore per their demand, and will keep him there.

Serious question: If you have him on “ignore” (i.e., Foe List) and therefore allegedly can’t see/read his posts, then how is possible for you to directly quote-reply to him?

See here:

apparently Baghdad Bob doesn't like poopie words and is a self appointed mod!

I can’t read your post, but you’ve been warned to stop stalking by the moderators (like I’ve been warned) so I suggest you stop before you’re banned.

And here:

Be careful, stalker troll. You’ve been warned by the powers to be. You were told to put me on ignore.
You might want to follow their advice.

So were you...and you continue to follow my posts...so go and report us both.

You follow with a post after every one of my posts. Not vice versa. Stop the stalking and trolling before it’s too late for you.

As a purely technical matter, it is impossible to directly quote-reply to a post on this forum without first being able to see/read it. How do you explain this apparent discrepancy?

Can confirm it's impossible, you can't even see what FOEs have written when they quote your post and you get a notification... looking forward to Cranny's response I'm sure it will resolve all our confusion

Interesting observation!

I'm sure we'll be gobbling a few buckets of popcorn waiting for the Cranster's come back on that one.

Bloom has a big job constructing a decent pitching staff for 2026.

That’s what happens when his predecessor was derelict in his duty for several years.

Roughly half the ML teams have a record worse than the Cards. And this is called a AAA team? LOL.
Now that’s funny.

You already tried this tactic a few pages ago.

And it still holds true, as has been said by other posters.

So, just a random trolling bump so you can keep it going, or just your insatiable need to have the last word?

If it bothers you, AEP, there’s always the ignore function. Easy to use.

WHAT? after all the year you didn't use he "quote" function . . . . LOL!

Of course I did for the obvious troll, Red……… but not for you. You have two personae - a very nice person watching practice with me in Jupiter, and a different type of person on here. Can you explain that? I’ll opt for the real you.

I'm still the same guy. I observe, I comment. A practice in Jupiter is like going to a Carnival as a kid. Nothing is serious, it's just a fun time.

As opposed to a forum with the anonymous curtain up?
You were upbeat, positive, and friendly in Jupiter.
That’s the real Red that I like.

This has become my favorite thread...they certainly are playing listless and boring baseball...I think AAA players would play harder but still lose

This is true.

Certainly with Mikolas pitching.
