Jim Thome's Secret Plan....

[Chuckles the Clown]

But since you asked, I don't think it was nearly as silly as the one where you suggested giving Barry Bonds second base for taking ball eight.

Har-de-******* '-har-har-har.

Eyes of a clown who definitely views the world upside down.

Once the topic was transferred to the MJB board, it was treated in very respectful manner and SEVERAL posters thought it was a good idea.

The idea had to do with protecting hitting streaks from pitchers who don't challenge the batter. If you had followed the discussion after it had been transferred to the MJB board, you might have noticed how petty the initial negative reaction really was.

A little touchy today, aren't we, Alex?

By no means did I mean to imply that ALL your posts are silly. At times you are quite insightful, and the three examples you just gave are adequate evidence of that.

Then again, given the fact thay you have over 6,500 posts to your credit, it could just be blind squirrel theory.
