    I hear ya dawk, so move the posts if you have to.

    btw, you are disagreeing and debating, FSU was not, he was upset that I disagreed with him and took it to a personal level. I wouldn't include myself in a group with FSU, he was not doing what you are at all.

    How would you know? You haven't done that yet.

    Ah, on the contrary. I posted a wonderful blend of facts and insults. Worked both into the post quite well.

    Your first three posts in this thread consisted of "he sucks." Wow. Tim McCarver? Is that you?

    You say I started insulting you? Well....I believe I asked for greater depth than "he sucks" about three times. I also posted an entire paragraph of FACTS and stats about Liriano.

    I may be on the Internet too (any more wisdom to bestow on us?) but I'm not the one starting threads with "well I have Internet awards and you don't." as if that validates your "he sucks because I say so" opinion.

    When Liriano is rolling, he's nasty.

    What Liriano does when he is on ecstasy is his own business

    Dawk????:laughy32:

    You can have your opinion that he's gonna break down or whatever.....you're calling him a scrub is probably where you go way out on a limb. At no point has he ever been a scrub nor is he now.

    Just like to point out that the "scrub" Liriano is 4-0 with an ERA of 1.32 since his call-up. :icon_cool:

    No surprise. He's a great pitcher. Enjoy him well you have him, because when his contract rolls around,you won't be able to afford him.

    That's not for awhile yet, and I wouldn't even go that far. Johan left because he WANTED to, not because the Twins couldn't afford him. They offered him a very nice deal, close to $100m but he wanted to go to New York. The Twins pony up to keep the people they need to (ie. Morneau, Mauer, and Nathan). If Liriano wants to stay here the Twins will pay him.

    2 of his last 3 starts were absolutely horrendous, 6 runs to the freaking Royals, LMAO!!!

    chiefswin19games Don't be defeated.

    Royals played good ball in the end.

    yeah, but if he won that game, they would be in the playoffs right now. He collapsed and choked at the end, much like I predicted.

    Wow. Go heck yourself, you spineless chicken crap. You don't say a freaking word until he loses and then you sing and dance like a goober acting like you just discovered electricity.

    As you predicted? Really? He was 5-1 with an ERA under 3 since he was called up and the bullpen blew his last three starts. Where were you then? Huh? Biding your time, fingers crossed that something would happen for you to come and crow about something minor and make it something big.

    What the heck ever....:icon_rolleyes:

    1 good start in his last 3, 14 runs in the other 2, hardly the bullpens fault

    8-1 loss to the royals where he gave up 6 runs in 4 innings, was hardly the bullpens fault. I didn't have to bide my time, Liriano showed his true colors in the clutch.

    No, actually, he didn't. But you act like he stole your lunch money so everything he does that isn't on par with Sandy Koufax and Nolan Ryan, you take the opportunity to crap on him.

    Which, like you, is freaking pathetic.

    Liriano was still recovering from TJS.

    Cut him some slack. That's tough to comeback from.

    He'll be good as new in 09.

    All I know is, that if he dominates instead of giving up 6 runs in 4 innings then the twins are in the playoffs and not the white sox.

    cry all you want. Your baseless insults are nothing more than a means to make me laugh.

    Nobody is crying. My insults towards you are standing on a strong, solid foundation.

    You're an even bigger tool than normal if you think it was all on him that they lost.

    I think it's been proven that I was right about this guy. I guess the search feature is working because I was finally able to find this thread.


    ----The Twins don't have a whole lot of options, but Liriano has been shaky in recent weeks and is 4-11 with a 5.63 ERA on the year. "We're talking about a lot of different things," said manager Ron Gardenhire.

    In danger of losing spot in rotation

    I knew his days as a dominating pitcher were over. Too bad FSU is banned and is not here to eat crow.
