Sorry to hurt your feeling gs white sox fan but as usual your hero AJ is getting the treatment he deserves. I actually didn't know white sox fans existed outside of the south side. You guys have always reminded me of ISU fans in the way you wish you were the cubs and in the way you can't fill a crappy stadium.
...So once again, you've got nothing?
Furthermore, you must not know anything about baseball if you think White Sox fans want to be anything like the Cubs and their fanbase.
I've answered "Scorpio"s question. And made you resort to personal chest thumping instead of actually adding anything of value to the thread. That's what matters.
You keep telling yourself that white sox don't envy the cubs. You won a world series and the city forgot about you within two years for the cubs.
What proof have you shown that AJ is ahat?

loud-mouth, jorts-wearing, red-faced, late 90's boy band hair style having, central Florida jagwagon.
None of this is incorrect.
But should Iowans really be pointing fingers in regards to jorts-wear?

This is funny since your first post in this thread included the "I know you are but what am I" defense.

In a poll of his peers taken last month, AJ was voted the most hated man in baseball. This is by his peers.
Why is everyone dodging the jorts comment?!
What jorts comment? AJ is from Central Florida, the mecca of world-wide Jorts culture. I wouldn't be surprised if he wore his jorts under his baseball uniform.
..You are a Cubs fan that posted a thread about AJ, right?
So, my first post is far from inaccurate, no?
So.. as was established.. you got nothing?
Also, if you think that was the highlight of Barrett's career, you are an idiot.. free cheap shot and he didn't even phase him... I think we know who the ***** is..
Chicago White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski was recently voted the meanest player in baseball by 215 of his peers.
Pierzynski, who has been labeled a cancer, has admitted to taking shots before playoff games, been involved in fistfights on the field and has been accused of kneeing a trainer in the crotch
There is a sort of unspoken bond among most professional athletes during competitions that one won’t deliberately try to hurt the other and possibly end his career. Such agreements are more necessary in games like football where the contracts aren’t guaranteed, but it exists in other sports as well. In baseball, players openly fraternize before and even during games (some think too extensively). Players know the difference between someone getting hurt during a clean play and when someone is intentionally trying to injure them. In today’s game between the Minnesota Twins and Chicago White Sox, A.J. Pierzynski added to his legend by possibly trying to injure reigning AL MVP Justin Morneau by appearing to intentionally try to step on his foot on a ground out.
Pierzynski has had a storied career full of clutch hits, fistfights and run-ins with teammates. He’s widely acknowledged as one of the most reviled players in baseball among opposing players; perhaps he would have fit in better during the 50s, 60s and 70s when players were strictly warned against fraternization with the "enemy". Pierzynski uses his reputation and his grating personality to its advantage to help his team win—-there’s nothing wrong with that; in fact, it should be applauded—-but when a player intentionally tries to hurt another player for no reason is where the line should be drawn.
On the initial controversial play, Pierzynski appeared to come close to stepping on Morneau’s foot as the play was being completed. This may have been an unintentional consequence of the way Pierzynski happened to be running on that particular play; these things happen. But with A.J. Pierzynski, there’s always an assumption of guilt for whatever it is he does because of his well-crafted reputation; and the Twins know better than anyone because he spent six seasons with them. On a later at bat, Pierzynski went out of his way to try and step on Morneau’s foot which sparked a back and forth between Pierzynski and Twins manager Ron Gardenhire; and also sparked the Twins to pour it on and blow the game open in the late innings.
The first play may have been unintentional, the second definitely wasn’t, and Pierzynski makes it a point to cross the line between competition and cheap shots. It’s a part of his game that he could probably do without. There’s nothing wrong with being intense; there’s nothing wrong with being a competitor; there’s not even anything wrong with being obnoxious and aggravating one’s opponent so he’s not concentrating on his job; but when one player attempts to injure another simply because he can; because it will enhance his reputation; or because he wants some form of retribution for an earlier accusation is when a player loses the respect of his peers because he’s behaving in such a way. A.J. Pierzynski is a good player; he’s also a cheap shot artist.
If I was a Sox fan I would be more steamed about Peavy not making the team than AJ, although you can still vote him on for the final roster spot. After all you did get Adam Dunn and his .210 average and 126 strikeouts on the team.
