DMZâ€™s past tirades against posters have been equally disappointing.

My what?

then ..

If you like ProballNW so much, go there. Pretending that Dave is trying to pick a fight with poor, misunderstood Jim Street isnâ€™t going to fly, here.

Yes, telling people who don’t agree with you to go away is good way to achieve an audience that is 99% in agreement. You might want to consider that the next time you have to refute the group-think charge.

I don’t know, I always thought Dave needed a little more mid-range, and a little less gain, but that’s most guitar players really.

We’re talking about Dave Navarro, right?

Who wins the fight if Bedard does sign with the M’s for $1.5 million plus incentives?

You’re about to see a rant, but it’s not going to be from Dave.

It was Jim Street who decided to call “bloggers and twitters” out as not caring about accuracy.

Dave’s well within his rights to defend himself against that accusation, and he’s not required to wear kid gloves while doing so, since Street sure as hell didn’t.

If you kids don’t play nice I’m going to take the trolley down to the newstand and buy a P-I!

We all grow old so be kind to your elders. Life will kick you in the ‘nads soon enough.

CCW (and Dave), The tweet that you referenced was the main reason why I wrote my earlier post… I do appreciate that hard work and the analysis from this site and I have benefited from it, but this kind of thing (pettieness towards Jim Steet) makes me feel like I am reading a juvenile’s rant. DMZ’s past tirades against posters have been equally disappointing. I hope USSM decides to take a page out of ProballNW’s book and truly take the higher road that Taylor H suggested.

Ditto Joeyjojo’s sentiments. Dave, you come across as a petty whiner in this post. I thought maybe you’d leave it at that, but then you added an additional comment, and tweeted about it, saying: “Bedard tells LaRue: ‘No one’s made a concrete offer.’ Chalk up another lazy blogger just making stuff up. What? Street’s a journalist? Oh.” C’mon. Grow up.

I’m sure 99% of us would like to focus on the awesomeness of Bedard on a 1-year deal.
