The OFFICIAL thread to trash players and their collectors
 

[B]Do you bump player threads to gloat to people who didn’t listen to your prior opinions that turned out to be correct?[/B]

Do you think that Vlad Jr. is overrated because he plays in a minor league ballpark?

Do you think that Mike Trout is mediocre, at best?

Do you think that Julio Rodriguez is nothing more than the second coming of Chris Coghlan?

Do you think that Juan Soto's BA has dipped because he walks too much or recently turned 40?

Do you think collecting Luis Robert is a waste of money because he receives age-based Social Security benefits?

Do you think that Judge, Ohtani, and Acuna are too streaky and oft-injured to be hobby relevant?

Do you enjoy manipulating statistics, ignoring facts, and passing off your opinions as truths?

If you answered YES to any or all of the above and believe that anyone who disagrees with you is stupid and is (or will be) a bag holder - then this thread is all you will ever need, want, or desire.

The intent of this thread is to offer a free space for you and all people like you to scream your critiques of any player and their collectors.

And the best part is - all of the player collectors on this forum have agreed to read this thread every single day in order to absorb your verbal barrages and critiques of their favorite players and collecting choices for the purpose of introspection and self-loathing.

In view of the above, there is no reason to ever post overly negative or critical things in each of the threads dedicated to specific players and their collectors. Instead, post all of that awesome analysis here, and trust that they will read it every day until they see the light and fall asleep crying in their beer.

EDITED - removed references to Wander Franco

This thread should be titled...

"The OFFICIAL place for BBases and Pete to hang out"

I don’t care for Bryce Harper. Boom, roasted.

he's washed, bro

Yes, but a subtle title like OPs is more likely to bring them here.

Seems like every person like me that started collecting during Covid and bought modern and ultramodern to collect/hold and did not flip/sell are the bag holders for now.

How dare you bad mouth Chris Coghlan

Please add --

Do you think Yordan is a horrible buy and can never be a superstar because he's a DH?

Great idea!

Did you leave off Robert because he’s that irrelevant?

[QUOTE=KhalDrogo;18281483]Great idea!

Did you leave off Robert because he’s that irrelevant?[/QUOTE]

He’s too old for inclusion - you know this

Kidding - he has been added

You should probably also add something for Tatis too! Like injury prone and immature.

I vote for adding:

Are you sick of seeing posts saying young players are HOF worthy after 4 years?

That’s a different thread - you should create that one

Some of us just like holding our bags.

Exactly, I don't like making other people do it for me. I hold my own bags just fine, thanks!

Haha, get outta my head

Do you think that Vlad Jr. is overrated because he plays in a minor league ballpark?

[B]Remember Prince Fielder? I remember.[/B]

Do you think that Wander Franco will never be good because he's a midget?

[B]Nobody cares about Devil Rays players. 4th place AL East team at best.[/B]

Do you think that Mike Trout is mediocre, at best?

[B]Probably the world's most boring player. So boring he only plays while everyone else sleeps[/B]

Do you think that Julio Rodriguez is nothing more than the second coming of Chris Coghlan?

[B]Flavor of the month. Will be forgotten about by next April[/B]

Do you think that Juan Soto's BA has dipped because he recently turned 40?

[B]Down 50% from April 1st? If you want to be down another 50% by Oct 1st. Invest! Those walks are really exciting.[/B]

Do you think collecting Luis Robert is a waste of money because he receives age-based Social Security benefits?

[B]Literally who?[/B]

Do you think that Judge, Ohtani, and Acuna are too streaky and oft-injured to be hobby relevant?

[B]Acuna will end up like Hanley Ramirez. Ohtani will have the greatest 3-4 seasons you have ever seen in your entire life and then become irrelevant. Judge is a senior citizen.[/B]

Do you enjoy manipulating statistics, ignoring facts, and passing off your opinions as truths?

[B]Yup. You forgot Tatis who will end up being the worst hobby investment and contract of all time after his wrist and shoulder are 75% titanium by age 25[/B]

Enjoy the bags folks. It's just photos of grown men on paper.

Ha, I love seeing the two different market discussions. Last year it was start a pump thread for all of these and 8-10 prospects. Now it's let's trash all the pump threads while we cry into our PSA 10s of bass of these guys that lose 10% value every week and convince ourselves the bubble hasn't popped.

BO forum has been a strange lady for the last 3 years, never know what to expect.

[QUOTE=seanrs1;18281521]You should probably also add something for Tatis too! Like injury prone and immature.[/QUOTE]

Haha! The Tatis thread is so dead that you can no longer locate it even with the BO advanced search function.

Just don't see the WOW factor with Franco. He's good but not hobby good. Not much power and not much speed. Him and Alek Thomas have about the same numbers.

They wait 4 years?

Everyone knows the only stat that matters in collecting is Age @ MLB Debut.

#ThanksTopps

Everyone sucks except Ohtani

/thread

Sadly many of my PC players are so unloved that people won’t bash them :(

Ohtani has no HOF chance unless they let him in as a novelty
