Nevermortal 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 oh come on Ghettoman, just cause the dude's 72 doesn't give him any right to charge at Pedro after a play that didn't involve him while teams were having to be separated and then taking a swipe at the opposing starting pitcher and not expect any retaliation Pedro was headhunting. Zimmer was standing up for his player. So he should've expected to get tossed if he was coming at someone with a swing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Report post Posted October 11, 2003 Zimmer did an awful job of standing up, Pedro tossed him like a ragdoll. The guy is 72 years old, out of shape, with two artificial knees. Classless comments like yours are just ignorant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyQuinn 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 I'm sure the players could stand up for themselves just fine Banky. Also at Zimmer's age, to do something like that is dumb since he was asking to get taken down. Come on, he took a swipe at Pedro's face...what was Pedro supposed to do? Let Zimmer beat him around?

Right.  Johnny Damon got concussed in game 7, the A's gave him a standing ovation. Don Zimmer, a 72 year old man, gets tossed by Pedro and the Red Sox fans boo him.  Fucking losers.

Guest Ghettoman Report post Posted October 11, 2003 Banky those players he was sticking up for were Yankees, don't expect much logic. Â You think Don just got up from the dugout, charged at him looking to take him down or something?

HarleyQuinn 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 Well Zimmer was charging towards Pedro...so I'd expect that Zimmer was planning to do something whether it be get in an arguing match or resort to something physical Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tpww7 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 Damon didnt attack any A's player. Zimmer attacked the Sox best pitcher..thats different Banky. Plus, not all fans were cheering for Damon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyQuinn 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 I do agree that the pitch was nowhere near Manny's head and he overreacted... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tpww7 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 I'll agree that Manny oversold that pitch looking for a reason to charge, and I wouldnt of been mad if he was tossed. But on the Pedro situation..do you want Pedro to just turn around so he can be hit from behind? You probably do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JangoFett4Hire 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 Banky, you can bitch all you want, but the A's season will still be over. So, maybe you should concentrate on those Raiders... do'oop! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Report post Posted October 11, 2003 Damon didnt attack any A's player. Zimmer attacked the Sox best pitcher..thats different Banky. Plus, not all fans were cheering for Damon. Oh jesus, who cares what Zimmer was doing, he got wrestled down by a guy 40 years his junior. I can't believe how narrow minded and ignorant you Red Sox fans can be. I don't think there is much difference between Damons and Zimmers incidents. Both guys were hurt and needed assitance from the field. One guy got booed and the other cheered. Â I was cheering for Damon when he got up, and I'm an A's fan. Some things tanscend the actual game...like when an old man is lying on the ground hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, maybe you should concentrate on those Raiders... do'oop! Oh come on, face it, aside from the Cubs, the red Sox are the asshole of baseball history. They are perrenial losers who will need to grow up before karma allows them to win again. Â When did the A's win their last World Series? It certainly wasn't 80 years ago.
