Thanks Maniac I appreciate your effort.

Funny thing is, I keep getting called a baiter, liar, I try and get people banned, had blatant lies made up about me, yet this ENTIRE thread of posts from the boys club is in response to MY post that was geared towards no one, but had actually Statistical facts talking baseball………

Why do people insist on arguing with the mentally challenged? This is a nice article/interview where decent questions get asked and answered, and it turns into a flame war with some poor shmoe who ignores all facts, reasons, logic or anyone with an IQ outside of double digits and berates everyone into FONZIE IS THE BEST POSITION PLAYER IN THE HISTORY OF THE METS.

Derp? Why does this site permit such retardetry to continue all the time? Guess I needed a reminder of why I don’t visit here very much.

What are you talking about Extreem? What’s unfair. The debate here is who was the better player.The one’s in favor of Wright have done nothing but throw out offensive stats.Nothing about defense and intangibles which is what should be taken into consideration when evaluating them as players.The debate wasn’t who put up better numbers,if it was it’s Wright no question. The guys who think Wright is better,obviously think that because of numbers.I’m taking the whole package into consideration All around player and when you look at the whole package offense,defense,baserunning,intangibles,clutch it’s Fonzie.He was a better all around player.That’s not a knock on Wright.He has the numbers but he’s not a very good defensive player.I’m asking those who think David is better because of numbers.Do you guys think Davis is better than Keith Hernandez.Wright has better numbers than Keith.I’m asking who was the better all around player.There’s nothing unfair.If you think David is better than Fonzie because of numbers than you obviously think Davis is better than Keith.As all around players I’ll go Keith,Fonzie and David 3rd.

You guys are throwing up numbers which is fine but none of you are mentioning the defense in this debate.The entire package as a whole,not just offensive statistics.Wright has gone from a decent 3rd baseman to a below avg 3rd baseman.Fonzie was exceptional at 3 infield positions.He came up as a slick fielding SS and was moved to 2nd and 3rd because of Ordonez.His 1st 2 years were like a Martin Prado role until 97 when he became an everyday player.To say Wright as a whole was better is not true unless you’re talking about offensive numbers only.The debate was better player.Player is all aspects of the game.

I’m twice as old as Evan Roberts and season tickets were in my family from 1964-2008 and I can tell you for sure I’ve seen more Met games live than Evan Roberts.What does that have to do with anything?

2 of the most underserving GG i have ever seen in my life. both to david wright.. the other to jeter in 2010

Just because Wright has better numbers it doesn’t mean he’s the better player.Wright has better numbers than Keith Hernandez does that mean he’s better than Keith as well?
What about defense? Does that not count? Alfonzo could play 3 of them exceptionally well.Wright doesn’t even play his one position all that well. How many 2nd baseman play a full season and make only 4 errors.

no doubt Vinny

Good point. At their peaks I would take Alfonso too because he was always in the middle of rallies and like alex said, Fonzie was a 3 type hitter hitting 2nd. And you can play him at 3 positions and get an above average glove at all 3.

It’s funny how jessep is caught LYING. I’d be embarrassed. I mean what does he think that nobody else follow Evan Roberts here? And nobody else going to get anything he tweets or retweets?

Very embarrassing. Jessep is a proven liar but that’s to be expected considering the type of sniveling person he shows to be here.

And bayonne, he asked over their entire 8 years on the team – That skews everything. Because Alfonzo struggled the 1st two years when he came up, and had a lot of injuries.

If you just went by their entire 8 years on the team, i’d take Wright too. BUT, if you asked me who would I rather have when they were both at the peak of their careers, I’ll take Alfonzo.

Alfonzo was a better overall player at the peak of his career than Wright was.

Bayonne, first of all, hapy thanksgiving to you and yours my friend. and second of all, why are you acting surprise at what he does? he’s been doing it forever. this shouldn’t come as a shock to you man..

jessep flat out LIED to the readership about Evan Robert’s response

“Just as an FYI I tweeted Adam Rubin and Evan Roberts and both said David Wright. How many games has Evan Roberts been to live compared to Bayonne I wonder?”

Evan Robert’s response

Wright statistically…Fonzie w/ glove/clutch RT @mbranda41 over entire 8 years they were a Met, who was a better player? wright or Alfonzo?

which is what i said all along – Give me Fonzie when going to battle during a pennant race and I said i don’t care about Wright’s numbers and I said that Wright is probably statistically better
but that doesn’t matter. Fonzie is still better IMO.

jessep flat out LIES out here on the boards again but i’m not surprised because that is exactly the type of slimy, slithering, snake that guy is

no argument there Kevin,

I may be rude, lose my temper, curse people out but i’d rather but like that then lie, bait, and be snarky. I may be wrong on calling talent and stuff like that but i don’t lie, spin and do any of that other stuff

just rude, lol

no way Maniac, never… i don’t like her one bit and she’s come out here and misunderstood arguments as attacks before and has called me crybaby for stating my opinion so she’s no angel. Far from it.

She should just trying sticking to the subject too but she doesn’t so she gets what she deserves. And that’s when i actually respond to her cuz usually i don’t

Bayonne is just flat out rude. But yes, Kay does bait a bit.

By: Alex68

Alex68 — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 15:45:09 +0000

Maniac, happy thanksgiving to you and yours my friend. regarding bayonne owing kay an apology, he should and he shouldn’t apologize to her. she’s a baiter who all seem to do is wait for someone to make a comment and then comes in trying to bait people to get them banned. also, bayonne, you kinda owe an apology to all the women in the site, there are some good readers here and writers, is thanksgiving my friend, is better off that way.

Bayonne, the reply button didn’t work for some reason. Regarding what jessep posted I just wanted to tell you that “liars always instigate, and instigators always lie”. So said Billy Martin.

But, I must call you out for that comment you made to Kay about “big boys”. You owe her an apology.

By: Bayonne Mets Fan

Bayonne Mets Fan — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 15:33:20 +0000

actually jessep that’s a flat out LIE. you just lied out here.

Evan Roberts said Wright statistically but Fonzie clutch/glove. Which is what I’ve been saying all along. Forget Wright’s numbers it’s Fonzie I would want to go to battle with during a pennant race.

So you LIED jessep. You LIED to the readership. But i’m not surprised man because this is exactly what you are

Wright statistically…Fonzie w/ glove/clutch RT @mbranda41 over entire 8 years they were a Met, who was a better player? wright or Alfonzo?

By: Vinny B

Vinny B — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 15:14:22 +0000

By the way, what was the question you asked them?

Did you ask “who had the better Mets career?” Or did you ask “who was the better overall player?”

Because if you asked who had the better career, the’d say Wright, because Alfonzo’s career was runied by injuries.

Just wondering because the answer could be different depending on the question you aked.

So, when they agree with you, they are credible and reliable, but when they disagree with you, they are no nothings, mouthpieces for Alderson and all the horrible things you’ve said about them and others as professionals and as people.

Hypocrite.

is funny how me mentioning how imo reyes is the franchise’s better player. then it turned to alfonso versus wright, then i’m told that what am i basing reyes being better than wright, on his 2011 season? yet all people here talk about is his 2007 season, 5 years ago, when i thought the man was on his way to be a legendary met, ohh how times change. now he’s a trade commodity for the mets, and what realistic met fan does not view this guy as an all time choker in big spots? from the 2006 playoffs, to leaving murphy stranded at 3rd in 2008, to his latest epic failure in sept 11 in 2011. i mean..
