Elvis, do you remember the knock down drag out fight Xeno and I got in over Pedro's HoF future?

no, but I am sure it would have been fun to watch. I'd have to put the fuckface in.

I was arguing first ballot, he was arguing that he wasn't getting in at all.

Come to think of it, he may have been trollin' me and laughing his ass off behind his computer.

nah. yankee fan.....

I hate that you wasted so much time grabbing and posting offensive statistics for a debate over defensive skillz, Article 15.

It makes me sad.

My bad, dude. I thought my two posts saying that defensive stats were shady at best and me saying that I guess we are going to have to just disagree to Elvis killed the whole fielding thing and we had moved onto peripheral stats when you said I didn't want to count them for second basemen.

Thems some of their riphs, homey.

OK - then we agree: both were great players, with Ryno being the better defensive player.
