Brian's sarcastic response was uncalled for in my opinion. What did I do wrong in this thread. Why can't I think the Bell acquistion is pivotal for this team's success. What is the big deal? As already discussed, the thread you started was a duplicate, and should have been posted in the Bell thread that already exists, and the predictions for his performance that evening belonged elsewhere aswell. Afterall, I completely agree that acquiring Bell will lead us to the playoffs, but instead of the wildcard, he'll help us overtake the Cardinals to win the Central, and then eventually beat the Mets 4-0 in the NLCS, and go on to win the World Series over the heavily favored Tigers, who will likely forfeit the Championship rather than to have to face the intimidating force that is David Bell. BTW, I also think your thread was outstanding, and couldn't have been better written or more well articulated if it had been posted by the likes of Jupiter or Zeus themselves.
