Yankees_1996_Champs: troll or dumbass

There’s something off about this guy…

His newest thread asks a question that shows he understands Americans in general and those Americans who post on this board in particular.

Is anyone here tired of Trump and McConnell?

Good question. I’m not sure the topic has come up. This guy really has his finger on the pulse of this board.

He goes on…

Oh no. Can’t vote for someone who is made fun of online. That leaves a plethora of promising choices.

In a different thread he phrases a question about police unions endorsing Republicans in a perfectly American fashion.

Yes ‘swiftly’. Excellent word choice.

I’m not even going to bother to dig up his many, many, many weirdly worded posts about race and politics in past.

Bah… ten minutes to kill so…

If you ignore the right wing stuff, Savage is very intelligent. Right?

They do say that, don’t they?

Yep, “Volatile in his temperament and personality,” is the exact phrase I’d use.

Being a Yankee fan, I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for him. Not sure why he selected the 1996 team, but whatevs.

Well he has a soft in his cranium that is best avoided.

If he’s American like he claims, English is not his first language. I picture him as the Balowski family from The Young Ones.

I flagged him as a troll about 4 minutes after he first posted. Troll is obvious.

Many of his posts are, “Now, I don’t agree but many people think this.” Not sure why he’s starting threads about opinions he claims not to hold.

(Im)plausible deniability.

Also Yankees 1996 Champs is the user name that captured Nazi from Saving Private Ryan would pick…

“I like American. Steamboat Willie. I say, can you see. Yankees 1996 Champs.”

Or pretty close.

“Adolf Hitler - you know the more I hear about that guy the more I don’t care for him.” -Norm Macdonald

He’s very special. He’s like that kid whose parents protected with cotton wadding and hid in their basement his whole life out of fear that the neighbors might realize that insanity ran in their family.

“Papa, did you disconnect the WIFI and unplug the router?”
“Uh-oh…”

He’s Manny Peoples?

Russian troll practicing his excellent first class American genuine English on the SDMB, hoping that he’ll get noticed and promoted up to the big leagues (Facebook).

Dumbass: the Yankees from 1998-2000 were much, much better.

He’s a trock; duh.

I’m thinking dumbass. Probably ESL. Troll is always a possibility. Let’s see if he can up his game or stay an enigmatic dumbass.

As a Yankee fan, his posts make me embarrassed to be associated with the same team. I feel guilty and breathtakingly stupid by association.

I don’t think he is a troll, just someone with a very high thread-to-post ratio, and also has a hard time seeing things from the viewpoints of others - i.e., thinking that baseball world revolves around the Yankees (although that may be a syndrome that infects many NYY fans in general.)

So…a Rain Man focused on baseball instead of Wapner?

He’s obsessed with race, but he’s not a racist. No, sir.
