Quote:I'm not sure if you're directing this at me or not. I pretty clearly called Stone a know-it-all prick. To answer your question, Stone is not exempt. In fact, the 9 years since have only proved to most Cub fans that Stone is an unlikable dickhead.

Again, no one muzzled him. The truth of his comments are completely and utterly beside the point.
Put another way, Stone criticized the players, the players got upset. The players criticized Stone, Stone quit. The players moved on. Stone has spent 9 years backstabbing, undercutting, and slighting the Cubs, Hendry and Baker. You want to call Mercker and Alou bitches? Fine, I won't argue. How is Stone exempt?

No one in in particular. I'm just saying this reinforces my original point that the Stone/dusty/mercker flap should have been the writing on the wall that Stone was a whiny bitch, even if he had a point way back then.
And Baker is and ass hat.
I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.
