Indians acquire Brian Bixler

[SanduskyCav]

Wow, I would hate to hear how you talk about your enemies... :chuckles:

So tell us, has he done steroids? And if he hasn't, can you talk him into it? The Tribe needs all the help they can get. Frankly, he wins in my book on name alone. I am now torn between who I want to see be the utility infielder, Bixler or Grudzielanek. Partial to Grudz, since I can spell his name w/o thinking about it, but Brian Bixler just flows so well.

I'm not trying to say bad things about him, but even he knows it. I've talked to him about it before and he knows his only drawback is batting. He's a great base runner and great fielder, but I'm not going to lie, he is a below average hitter when in the big leagues.

Well hes not going to get anywhere without confidence

He's got confidence, he works his ass off practicing hitting..

I love how there's always a race to put a sarcastic post in an Indians thread. It never fails to amuse me haha.

What do you mean what am I trying to get at? He knows he's not a good hitter, yet he has confidence in himself and he works at it. What the hell is so hard to comprehend? Just because you know your not the best at something doesn't mean your not confident in yourself

F*** MLB and Selig. That's all.

fixed it up a bit

Why did you say this? Is it because:

A) You understand and hate the revenue structure of MLB and the fact that Cleveland is a small-mid market victim given their owner who chooses to make a profit from the club if possible.

B) You don't understand the revenue structure of MLB and blame either Dolan or Shapiro (or both) blindly for the product on the field last year because they obviously want to lose.

C) You are a bandwagon fan who only roots for a clear winner.

D) You are trolling the MLB section of RCF because you are bored.

E) You really had some great insight into the Indians' attempt to contend while retooling this year, but decided that " *** the Indians. That's all." would cover it nicely because your verbal capacity is limited.

F) You didn't pick any of the Indians for your fantasy league, and you want them all to under-perform because of this.

G) You are really just a bandwagon Cavs fan because they're a contender this year, and don't know anything about the Cleveland Indians or MLB, but wanted to seem cool.

You should have another letter...it should read: "H) Because they are choke artists. And by the way, I spent way too much time typing this post out because I have no life...plus I'm immature and like fighting over the internet.

I would have selected it.

Hmmm. Sounds like "All of the Above" to me. If you hate the Indians so much, why bother following and commenting about them in this forum? To say they are choke artists adds absolutely nothing to the conversation.

Why did you say this? Is it because:

Leave us alone, we are all disgruntled Indians fans, and have been let down, pushed over, and kicked when we are down in the past years. YOU must be a new fan.

Honestly, I can never tell if you're serious in your posts.

I've been a fan a very long time, and a very loyal one. One thing that I've learned: spewing negativity does not make the team better.

 

[Chardon]

The only reason we make jokes and can laugh, is because if we werent, we would be crying half the time.

I still hate the Yanks! That is all.
