A Trip Down Memory Lane... - Coach - 06-04-2009
<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->But in all seriousness, I'm not denying to anyone that I was loud and constant in defending Mitre and Williams, but I was also consistent in my evaluation of them as capable MLB starters. And now they are both MLB starters. I'm not bragging at all, just saying I wasn't wrong.
If Harvey flops this year and beyond, and if Gallagher doesn't become a middle of the rotation starter at the big league level, I will eat a TON of crow, because I admit I've been "gushing" about them for years.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

This a quote from you? I just don't see the context.

I'm not gonna pile on anyone because I was wrong on Williams too, but examples like these are why I never put any stock in prospects, especially Cubs prospects. That's why I try to avoid ever getting into an argument with anyone regarding unproven talent.

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->You are taking the definition you saw too literally.
If you are in queue for something then yes, you are in fact waiting in line. If you're putting something in reserve, you are putting it in queue, or queueing it. To queue something is to put it on reserve waiting for it to commence. It's simple English Kid and I don't understand why can't understand this.
Is it that hard for you to admit when you're wrong? Can you not appologize for wrongfully attacking my post?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I'm happy if this diverges into a funny quote-fest, but what the fuck, Coach? Are you trying to become a caricature of yourself?
