Saw Clemens, Hernandez, and Mussina.....walked around Boston in my #5 jersey....and got harassed by that godamn green Wall mascot.

When they came back to the Stadium the next weekend, it was another sweep of Boston, and the last time I saw the Towers, which my grandfather helped build, and the last time I had drinks with my high school prom date who died on the 95th floor of the South Tower.

And I lost four more people that day.

So I understand what it's like to lose people to terror. But I would never call Barack Obama a piece of shit because of it.

Was the piece of shit used car salesman there? Wrong thread? nt msanthrope Apr 2014 #10

No, sadly he was not, but Our President said this the other day... sheshe2 Apr 2014 #11

Our President is a class act. Boston was very kind to me, too, enabling so many Yankee rings.... msanthrope Apr 2014 #13

The President is indeed a class act. sheshe2 Apr 2014 #15

Hey Will....did you appeal the formulary, in writing, as I advised you to? msanthrope Apr 2014 #40

Hey msanthrope...did you just change the subject again? WilliamPitt Apr 2014 #41

Again...did you take my advice and appeal the formulary in writing? msanthrope Apr 2014 #42

A class act indeed. LanternWaste Apr 2014 #24

Are you trying to reprimand me? Why not just say what you mean? nt msanthrope Apr 2014 #26

Thanks for kicking my thread WilliamPitt Apr 2014 #12

Did you take my advice and appeal the formulary decision your insurance msanthrope Apr 2014 #14

What a lousy attempt at hijacking a thread. Grow up. nm rhett o rick Apr 2014 #19

You can always put me on ignore! nt msanthrope Apr 2014 #20

actually there are more replies in the subthread than to the OP snooper2 Apr 2014 #25

I find that when an OP does not address posters to their thread, that tends to happen. nt msanthrope Apr 2014 #30

In either case I think it's a lousy thing to do. It's an attempt at rhett o rick Apr 2014 #38

How crass - nt badtoworse Apr 2014 #27

Indeed. Calling the President a "piece of shit used car salesman" was crass. nt msanthrope Apr 2014 #29

Will apologized for that. The crass comment describes your post badtoworse Apr 2014 #31

No, actually I found Mr. Pitt's apology to be factually deficient, and I don't accept it, as I told msanthrope Apr 2014 #33

You should stop digging badtoworse Apr 2014 #34

I'll take it under advisement. nt msanthrope Apr 2014 #35
