Give your insults a rest already, troll.


Yeah, I am the troll. My guys Esoteric Thinker will be trolling all over your NY Breds. Don't worry a got a piece of a California bred too. Is it my KY bred that bothers you or the fact that you are in the negative in the contest and I am in second place. LOL.

Why don't you go back to being Investigator Clouseau and solving the troll puzzle. I wished I had the time you did. Maybe you should find a hobby. :eek:

Who cares who uses steroids. It isn't a reporters responsibility to control steroids. It is Bud Selif's job to make sure baseball is free of steroids. Gammoms doesn't report on steroids because he doesn't care. What benefit does do to report a story about a team using steroids. If I had my way, steroids would be legal so we wouldn't have to hear about this garbage all the time.

Gammons makes no bones about being a Red Sox fan, and his reporting is fair and accurate. I love the trade rumors he has and all the leads. Now his knowledge of the game pales in comparison to Reynolds, Kruk and Morgan. But he isn't there for baseball startegy, he is there to report on rumors and try and report it as accurate as possible. I don't know how anyone can fault anyone for doing something they love.

He is a reporter. It is his job to report what he knows. Gammons looks the other way. That is what make him a go to guy for GM's and players. I will give you info if you make baseball look good. Fact is that Gammons is more of a salesman for baseball than a reporter. That guy knows what color underwear players are wearing, don't tell me he didn't know about steroids in the game.

Being a contracted reporter he can choose what he wants to report and what he doesnt. He chooses to report the good side of baseball. There are plenty of other people who only look at the negative (Jay Mariotti) side of baseball. Again, he is an independent contractor--he can report on what he wants. He isnt obligated to report every story.

Peter Gammons, a highly respected Major League Baseball journalist, serves as a studio analyst on ESPN's Baseball Tonight.

That is his bio from ESPN.

You are not a journalist if you are really just a salesman for baseball. I guess reporting on steroids went against the salesman job. He has a degree I believe in journalism from Chapel Hill. He should know better than to be a coverup man for baseball.

What does his bio have to do with anything? A journalist reports a story. That is exactly what he does. Just because he doesnt report what you want doesnt mean he is any less of a journalist.

Lol... Fidget... lol. Hasn't won a race in 2 years, burned $ at 9/5 and even money. Gonna get a 2nd flight trip. 7 yo mare gonna pass 3 or 4 of them on an off track? Lol, well at least you'll get 2-1 today.

Delta Sea ... well, he's the cheapest horse in the race, is moving up and probably has to pass all of them. Probably 5-1 today for his crack 4% trainer who brings him back in six days. Good luck.

Dr Pleasure... well you bought in on the front page article I guess. Figure 5/2 at most. Why do you like him? You admire how he stopped like a trained pig at 4/5 at Keeneland 2 months ago?

S2S, it's pretty obvious that this guy just loves to hit his typewriter keys while he's sucking on his bottle.

Know nothings like to do that.

Get ready S2S!

Sure. Where was the pick before the race. If I had a dollar for every winner people had after the race I would be retired. Put up or shut up. The entire day is left and I see ZERO picks from you. Typical guy that is full of it.

Let's see story broke out on the 21st by Eric Wilbur in ESPN the Magazine. Still hasn't become big news yet. Still dealing with Jason Grimsley. Once it becomes Big News, I'm sure Gammons will make comments about it. Wait a minute he's in ICU.

The conspiracy theorist say he has known about it forever. No one has made a big deal about it until 2002. He is doing his job! He is not holding back. He already said when McGwire becomes eligible for the HoF. McGwire does not have a vote from him.

By the way
Who killed Kennedy?
What happened at area 51?
Are the Kennedy's cursed?
Are the Cubs cursed?
