No Sportmanship

Come on guys dont get angry at each other...Everyone makes mistakes. Learn and go, you will get better, just work together, remember that term "THERE IS NO "I" IN TEAM"

I was really disgusted with that gesture and attitude. I couldn’t believe he did that, but kind of can because I have began to see how selfish he can be at times. The comments about demanding more playing time and almost acting rudely when Podsednik got to play weren’t "TEAM" oriented. Of course, I’m Omar’s fan because I played high school baseball with him, but come on, why blame or act rude to a guy that’s doing all he can for the "TEAM"; that’s how our coach taught us. That was straight RUDE, I’m quickly loosing respect, well more like already lost it because I’ve watched him at Coors and sometimes he looks like he doesn’t even try. I am not one to criticize his talent because he made it to the MLB, yet just acting like he did was disrespect to the game and more to his teammates, especially when he made that error in Chicago, LOL!!! Omar didn’t act rude with him, LOL!!!! Or throw the ball back at him to see if he could catch it, LOL!!! Anyway, I’m still behind them cus that how we are raised in TX…to stick with your team even in the bad times…. GO ROCKIES, AND GO OMAR!!!!

Umm...

what are you talking about? (no offense, I’m just very confused…)

me too, actually.

I’ve deciphered part of it:

Omar is great.

But the rest left me scratching my head. I was hoping somebody would fill in the blank spots about who it was that made whatever comment was made, and what exactly that comment was. It seems to be talking about Taveras with the allusion to playing time complaints and Podsednik, but why would Willy T say anything about Q? They’re at entirely different positions and I saw nothing about this in the papers this morning.

I guess it shouldn’t be surprising that there’s tension in the clubhouse, though. Losing and under performance add a boat load of stress onto people and that will make tempers short.
