Trop a UFO?

Tropicana Field has been called a lot of things, but Rays exec Michael Kalt, the point man for the new stadium, took it to a new page in the dictionary with this quote from a John Donovan piece on si.com:

"Part of the reason that baseball hasn't been very successful here in Florida ... really comes down to the venues [do] nothing to highlight that feeling that this is baseball, in Florida," he says. "I mean, they stuck us in a UFO and [the Marlins] in a football stadium."

Stuck us in a UFO? Dude, you bought the team knowing full well that the stadium was what it was.

If the stadium is so obviously flawed, why in the heck did you buy the Rays?

Or was it your intention all along to force the city to help you build a new stadium? You said you never would, but look at what's happening now.

And they say you've never given us any reason not to trust you. Hah! Probably said the same thing about Enron too.

I'm Justin, I'm Justin, I'm Justin, I'm Justin, I'm Justin...

Really? That's your comeback? Very clever.

[Justin Elza]

Why is it people like you always attack the person delivering the message rather than focusing on the message itself?

Could it be it pisses you off that the message rings true?

[Justin Elza]

Besides, "Broken Record" grow a pair and use your real name rather than hiding behind the cloak of the internet like some coward/pervert.

[Broken Record]

Yes, that's the comeback. You spew the same junk over and over. The message doesn't ring true, it rings dumb. Stupid. Moronic. Nonsensical. Idiotic. Every single time, you prove to be a jerkoff who knows nothing.

[Justin Elza]

Again, you are attacking me but have said nothing about what I actually said. Besides, how can I say the same thing over and over when this was my first post in response to this article, which was just put online?

And in any event, I'll gladly meet you any time in person if you'd like to find out just how much of a jerk off I really am.

Just tell me when and where.

Trop a UFO? I read this same line of thought on a Rays blog, last night. Once again, the amateurs outdo the professionals.

[Justin Elza]

Or some of the amateurs are actually hired by the professionals to blog on their behalf. Not saying that YOU are one of them, but let's be realistic, paid blogging is a very common thing these days and the Rays aren't denying that they're doing it.

[Broken Record]

This isn't the only article on the site "Justin". You have posted multiple moronic opinions regarding the new stadium, the Trop, and the owners.

I have commented on what you said. I said it was stupid. All of it. Every word combined with every other word to form sentences that make stupid points. Just live with it tough guy.

[Broken Record]

Rays aren't paying me anything "Justin". I just think you're a complete tool.

[Justin Elza]

What's moronic is calling people tools or jerkoffs rather than refuting their comments. Besides, like I said before, why do you keep using a moniker? Why don't you be a man and use your real name if you are going to make personal attacks. To me, that's what a tool does, hides behind the internet rather than speaking as himself. And I never said YOU were a paid blogger, please read my posts before responding. I said the Rays undoubtedly are paying people to blog in these and other forums. And two more things:

1. I never addressed the dome being a UFO or made any of the same comments in postings elsewhere that I originally made to this post, so the repetition argument makes no sense.
2. Even if I do repeat myself from time to time, so what. It's called being consistent.

You can call me tough guy and keep throwing other insults out there all you want. But the fact is, you are being a coward by hiding your real identity when you make personal attacks on someone and nothing you can say, other than, my real name is _______ is going to change that.

Meet me in person and say that stuff to my face, its not a challenge to fight, its an invitation to be a man and look someone in the eyes when you insult them rather than cower behind your monitor like an insolent child.
