HIYOOOOO





too soon?

Jesus Shuttlesworth 10-11-2006 11:11 PM

Yeah not really fun at all. Neither is that retarded group you tried to get me to join on facebook either. Look, I'm not saying you should be like sad or depressed about some dude you don't know dieing since it happens all the time, but making fun of it is pretty pointless.

RoXer 10-11-2006 11:12 PM

Come onnnn, I thought that group was one of the more creative ones.

DaveWadding 10-11-2006 11:23 PM

LMAO.

Dragon 10-11-2006 11:29 PM

RoXer 10-11-2006 11:29 PM

Some of these on the facebook groups are really terrible. I'm just posting the "kinda" funny ones.

Skippord 10-12-2006 03:17 AM

You're all going to hell

weather vane 10-12-2006 03:23 AM

RIP Cory Lidle

ct2k 10-12-2006 05:07 AM

I'm sure his wife and son find this as hilarious as Joey does:-\

ct2k 10-12-2006 05:11 AM

Fuck I tink I just pos repped Roxer by accident, goddamnit Joey.

Also:

Roberto Clemente
Thurmon Munson

No uber-hilarious comedy for their early deaths?

YOUR Hero 10-12-2006 10:14 AM

Wow, sorta shocked at your actions here, RoXer. Did your little brother get into your account??

Loose Cannon 10-12-2006 03:08 PM

Very Sad.

I was real excited when the Yanks signed him this year. He's always been one of my favorite pitchers (and I'm not just saying that cause he died) ever since his run with the A's in 2002. The A's have always been my 2nd team. I became a fan when he went on that classic run from August-Sept '02. I'll always remember that.

I'm glad I got to see him pitch in a Yankees uniform

RIP

The Outlaw 10-12-2006 05:19 PM

Yeah, pretty terrible...

samichna 10-12-2006 08:32 PM

lol K Zone

RIP though, pretty sad.

Nervous Ferret 10-12-2006 11:21 PM

RIP, I really thought he was gunna do well when he came over with Abreu. Really really sad although I did chuckle at K Zone a little :o

RoXer 10-13-2006 12:36 AM

I don't really get why this is such a haven for bad jokes? Not just talking about this board. I was in the newsroom as it was all happening on TV, and nobody was serious at all, it was just making fun of the situation.

I mean I know its a pretty random situation. You see a plane crashes into a NYC building, well shit, then WTF it is Cory Lidle, but why is it so socially acceptable to make fun of this situation?

I am asking in all honesty, not because I have strong feelings about it. It just seems odd that an athlete dies in such a way and it seems like a big joke.

ct2k 10-13-2006 07:55 AM

Unfortunately for Cory Lidle his death is considered less important that one caused by terrorism, once everyone realised it wasn't an attack they stopped giving a fuck:-\

toxic rooster 10-13-2006 09:39 AM

Joey RoXer is getting a reputation for making fun of deaths too soon.

Supreme Olajuwon 10-13-2006 11:42 AM

Joey RoXer I support your freedom of speech.

ct2k 10-13-2006 11:44 AM

It is ofcourse Roxer's right to say what he wants, but obviously it is my right and anybody else's right to tell him he's being a prick doing it.

RoXer 10-13-2006 12:01 PM

Yeah, BCWWF basically hit it on the head there. If you watched CNN or MSNBC for about an hour, it would get worse and worse. First it was an explosion, then it was an gas leak, then it was a small plane, then it was terrorism, then they officially ruled out terrorism, then it MIGHT have been a terrorist attack, and then the big climax was a Cory Lidle attack. And everyone right there goes, "What"? I know that after hearing that, I was expecting this thing to keep spiraling out of control. Hell, I guessed that he was in the bahamas or in the woods on vacation and has no idea this was going on.

Anyway, this thing just kept spiraling and spiraling and I think everyone found the situation humorous in a way. Now that it's stopped though, everyone still has that feeling in them.

Supreme Olajuwon 10-13-2006 12:25 PM

All I know is this is not even close to being the worst thing someone has posted on here but people only speak up at convenient times.

BCWWF 10-13-2006 06:27 PM

I think it comes down to the odd circumstances when the news broke, and the fact that Cory Lidle, especially after the trade, was a player that most people knew of, but that is about it. If it was a random journeyman guy, it would have probably been a lot of "sad" type coverage, and if it was a star it would obviously be different. Lidle is just kind of like "that guy," you know him but not, there isn't really a personal tie to him.

That might just be me though.

Crippla 10-13-2006 06:39 PM

:n: :nono: Not funny RoXer. You really are a dick.

Nah you're right, if it'd been a legendary veteren like Roger Clemens or an all-american rookie star like David Wright there would've been people crying in the streets of various places

Avenger 10-14-2006 01:21 PM

fucking not funny

Vastardikai 10-16-2006 03:21 AM

I have a dark sense of humor. I'll admit it. I think my only remark about the whole thing was that the Yankee's Pitching Staff were Terrorists. The follow up that I heard was "Boston might stand a chance if the Bronx Bombers were all at Gitmo." That I feel was a good joke.

I looked at all of Roxer's stuff and was like :-\

I didn't like the whole bit, but only because it wasn't funny. Jokes about Deaths I have no problem with, as long as they can connect with my sense of humor. I, for one, enjoy the Darwin Awards. At the same time, some people carry themselves with an amount of respect and bring a goodness to the world that I can't find any humor in them dying.

Seriously though, if you're gonna make fun of someone's death, at least TRY to be funny. And try to keep it in context.

RoXer 10-16-2006 05:04 PM

The only things that really made me laugh was K zone, Plane Crash, and a few of those haikus.
