i don't know why he's still here. i guess because he doesn't disrupt the other forums and because some have emailed me asking that we keep him. i'll let you guys vote on it in here.

beanster stays?

or

beanster goes?

hey bean? will you grade the consensus??

Jack,

I vote we let him stay.

Granted, he ain't the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree, and after that last barrage of Barfly's pictures (guy with his head up his butt...rof!), I don't think bean wants another sampling of forum artillery.

You have to admit he's a gambler and his posts are somethin' else. Like other members, I don't appreciate his rudeness. Who wants to come home from working all day and see some ridicule and sarcasm from a total stranger?

On the other hand, you take a thick-skinned guy like Nick Douglas and he plays off bean's sarcasm and makes it entertaining. That's just my opinion, Nick.

Bean likes baseball. He likes to handicap and fwiw, he provides an analysis. That's a plus.

He's interactive and his replies are amusing. That's a plus.

He's a moron and that's a minus.

He's rude and sarcastic and that's a minus.

I think the plusses are "slightly" larger than the minuses.

The guy's shtick is just tiresome - it has no originality, no smarts - it's just shite!!

And frankly, he's lasted far longer than he should have - every second post has some barb at a valued MJ member!

Fire his ass Jack!

I agree with Anders. I think he disrupts the mood in here. Somtimes I do think it is funny, but most of the time it is just annoying.

He's entertaining and funny. I don't take him seriously and usually read all of his posts in this section. Let him stay.

My thoughts on this have been made fairly clear. I vote he gets the boot. I am not sure when lack of grace, humility and respect for fellow man became funny. If it is considered funny, this guy is f-ing hilarious. You can't convince me it is schtick, cuz he is a absolute a-hole to people for no good reason most of the time. I guess a keyboard and screen can sometimes bring out the worst in people.

On the course!
I abstain from voting.

Bean will get tired of this place fast enough. People who are not here to handicap come and go all of the time. I think he is just having fun, so we have fun right back.

It's no big deal.

I will go along with the crew with one stipulation.If he does get the boot I think he should be allowed a post on Thanksgiving Day as a reminder to all that we do indeed have things to be thankful for.He could be your neighbor,your daughters husband,your boss,forum moderator ect

P.S. I do find his post somewhat amusing at times also gives posters a real life entity to take out frustrations on.

Jack, let him stay. He's good for the offshore industry. They'll bury him and we can watch the execution.

I find his posts somewhat funny until he makes "unprovoked" insults towards people.

He is the weakest link. Boot him.

One can short of a six pack? I really don't have a feel for this guy.I believe i have seen more posts on b.s. then capping games from him and really have no idea how he is at cappin.I just feel he goes against the way Jack wants this site run and find it surprising Jack keeps giving him chances.He does not bother me so let him have his fun and just hope it does'nt open the door and this site becomes like all the rest.
My Final answer>>> STAY

You know Jack, Nick has been jumping hard on a few folks too. I know BTJ has done more.
So how about a run off. Thats what were about, right. 7 days straight they each must post two games on any sport. Winner stays.
Your the judge. You decide a tie breaker. I believe the guys here would love it. Can't think of a more fair way.
However if you do not like the idea. Then he must go.

Its all fun and games until we lose a respected "Quality" capper from this site due to some obnoxious post that is taken the wrong way...
BTJ has been booted from many other sites already. If he's not allowed on those other sites which have quite a few bashers why should we keep him on this site that is known for how well kept it is. He has been given quite a few chance's to straighten up his act which IMO was a fair deal. The "new" BTJ was just as bad as the old BTJ, there was no change...

So IMO he should be released before he causes any serious turmoil at this site.
