driventotheedge Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Now reading reports Turner was belligerent when told to isolate. Assuming Manfred has sobered up from Tuesday night, he's probably going to face some kind of discipline.Nope. No discipline. That's because Manfred is a gutless worm.Yep. His testicles were removed when he took office. Was obvious in his lack of action with the cheating Asterisks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjbear05 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 BWAHAHA, more Assterisk douchebaggery. Former GM Jeff Luhnow suing team, claiming a Sergeant Schultz on sign stealing, and that he was scapegoated in an agreement negotiated between Assholes owner Jim Crane and Commissioner Rob Boyfred so the 'Holes could retain their Series championship. Luhnow wants $22 mil+ in unpaid salary and his name cleared. I hope he takes them to the cleaners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only for being in (at the very least) aware of cheating in the sign stealing scandal, but it's certainly possible that he was involved in the scandal regarding stealing information from the Cardinals. I hope he wins his case but only gets a penny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Principled Man Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Just finished replying to a friend's post on Facebook. Her post was about the Cleveland Indians and how they named their team to honor Louis Sockalexis, a Native American player on the team (1897-1899). It was my unfortunate duty to inform her that the story is a myth, that the Cleveland team as well as its fans did not in any way honor Sockalexis. Every game, Sockalexis was taunted by fans in the stands. In 1915, sixteen years after he left the team and Baseball, the owners Cleveland Spiders decided to change the team's name to the Indians. They promoted the team as savage warriors, who were to be feared. Not once did they mention Sockalexis. Cleveland newspapers then printed many stories and cartoons that used blatant stereotypes about Native Americans and how they spoke and lived. I hope that my friend reads all the info that I put on her post. I hope that she can handle a friend saying that she's "wrong". :eh: http://onthebenchreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Louis-Sockalexis-in-a-suit.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invisible airwave Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 (edited) Congrats to Howie Kendrick on his retirement. Loved having him on my Angels and was happy he got his ring for DC. He had a Wade Boggs and Tony Gwynn style early in his career. Not quite as high as them average wise but finishing career .294 ain't bad.
