From the Sports community manager of the shithole: Our terms of service do not allow personal attacks, such as calling someone “an idiot” or a “piss poor excuse for a human being.” I can have an elementary school teacher call you if you don’t understand the difference between criticism and personal attacks. I couldn’t help but laugh at the personal attack here while explaining that personal attacks are not allowed. Anyway, Greenfield isn’t worth getting upset about. As dumb as he is, he’s probably one of the better writers over there. ChicagoNOW’s terms of service apply to only those who disagree, which is what most people should be doing when they visit that place. For example, here’s Kaplan violating the terms of service: I am so sick of hearing that Carlos Zambrano is the “ace” of the Cubs staff and that he is considered one of the best starters in the baseball. That is such a pile of garbage and it is about time people start to call this guy what he really is, a fraud. We’ve tired of you and your immaturity. Elsewhere on ChicagoNOW: Milton, Shut the Hell Up Already Never in my memory has a Chicago player gone so far out of his way to distract attention from the fact that his season has been a big pile of suck. Lies. ChicagoNOW enjoys having liars write for them. could you please shut the hell up already? ChicagoNOW likes to have people write that tells people to shut up. That doesn’t violate their terms of service. You want to bitch about racism? Go talk to Hank Aaron, the Palestinians, the Israelis, or people living in Rwanda first. ChicagoNOW supports the idea that in order to complain about something you have to be among the most severely victimized. They do now however believe that when it comes to their writers complaining about whatever it is they are complaining about. Every game I’ve been at lately, the only people NOT being booed are DLee and Theriot. Fonenot is definitely getting his share and so is Aaron Miles. In fact, Miles might bet getting it worse than anyone, but he’s not out there much. Lies. ChicagoNOW is OK with liars. I can post audio if you would like. Maybe Fontenot’s just smart enough not to say stupid things to the media on a daily basis? Hey Jimmy, isn’t this in direct violation of the terms of service? Wow. A game thread dedicating Milton Bradley to “Shut the hell up already”. Call me nuts, but that seems a little harsh. I have never been that offended at what Milton has had to say. He has everyone, including you Julie, dissecting every single thing he says, and if he doesn’t say pretty please, you call him an asshole, lable him selfish, and bitch about him. He doesn’t like getting booed. Nobody does. He is more willing to talk about it. I have no idea why he keeps being referred to as selfish. I’m sorry Milton Bradley can’t be the nice neiborhood friendly black man who stays out of the limelight and quietly does his thing. He has not been terrible this year, he’s been exactly average. After the worst slump of his career. And through his slump he’s had to deal with asshole fans and media who are basically a mob with pitchforks. The reason you don’t hear Soriano complain is that he doesn’t speak English as well. Furthermore, Milton Bradley has even admitted that he’s been slumping. I don’t see him blaming fans for his problems, he is just stating that he doesn’t like getting booed. Why don’t the Cubs just replace all their players with Care Bears. They’ll play cheap, and we’ll have the most loveable team ever. This comment got no response. None. They practically made fun of him and called him a chicken for not talking to them. He’s ******* damned-if-he-do, damned-if-he-don’t. Also no response. A pattern is emerging. The thing is, I don’t understand why anyone cares what any of the players says. Just… don’t listen to them. Christ, I don’t even read the newspaper because everything *anyone* says pisses me off. So I just ignore it. And then I can appreciate Bradley for his .400 OBP. Pattern continues as there is no response. Say something rational or decent about Bradley and you get no response. Bradley making gestures at the fans again. THAT’s why people don’t like him. (dying laughing) yeah, that’s why people don’t like him. It doesn’t have anything to do with the fact that you didn’t like him to begin with, are now lying about him, will continue to lie about him, will make up whatever you have to, and ignore any complaints the man may have. Yep. The fans don’t like him because of gestures. Gestures was the last straw, people! Gestures! Oh yeah Bradley drove in both runs tonight how about that mofoers. No response to this. Shocking. hey…we are winning. Bradley Rocks! Not one response. You know what, nothing makes me feel better than when a player proves me wrong. Way to go Bradley. Not a single response. The crappy Marmol is back. This is a violation of the terms of service, jimmy boy. You’re failing at your job. Uh-oh . . . Milty at the mic. Unfuckingbelievable! The only uh-oh thing here is that Cubs fans are ******* douchebags and ChicagoNOW promotes it. If you don’t hate Milton Bradley, you are not tolerated on ChicagoNOW. You either hate him, lie about him, make **** up to please yourself, or the terms of service apply to you. Once you like the guy, terms of service begin applying. HJE had initially agreed to move to ChicagoNOW, but after they insisted they let up on attacking Dave Kaplan. That’s what ChicagoNOW is. With that, I’m officially done with that place. It’s a pile of suck over there. And Jimmy is proud of it. Pathetic.
