  1. They can, but they generally don't. They want endless home runs and strikeouts above all else. The new trend of more steals does give me hope though.
  2. I still no nothing about her other than she sings and is incredibly popular. Anybody who consistently annoys MAGAs seems OK though.
  3. And he might have wound up just as valuable. He would have been less interesting though. The modern game lacks variety.
  4. His hit total would have approached if not reached 4,000. His rate stats are not as good as his reputation. The Asian Pete Rose.
  5. Why not? AI can take care of that.
  6. As much as I like Granderson, that would be a really large HoF. I can't really see any argument that gets him in.
  7. Maybe Sabathia, but probably not the first year. There has been talk about Ichiro being a unanimous choice and it could happen. He is clearly a Hall of Famer, but I don't know if he's that special where he should be only the second unanimous choice ever. On the other hand, it's stupid to keep someone out just because you don't want it to be unanimous.
  8. Lazy voter Independents or Democrats could be watching the show, but I agree he is giving himself too much credit.
  9. It can be interpreted two ways. Because he is a whiney little bitch, I think he was saying that Democrats will investigate Haley if she wins. They won't need to investigate DeSantis because he is a loser already. Like the mob boss that he is though, he sent a double message.
  10. I met Jordan too. Wheat Thrower seems like a good guy.
  11. Welcome back JBK. I hadn't seen you in a long time.
  12. I am not worried about that because Obama would kick his ass in 2028. Not sure about Biden this year.
  13. Why is this being billed as a historic win for Trump (by CNN)? A former President winning a primary by 10 points is nothing to brag about. CNN and the rest of the media needs to stop jerking off to Trump, but they won't because they need him.
  14. They won't be worse than some of the writers and Veterans Committee voters.
  15. The last time the Tigers traded a 26-year-old Nevin, he blossomed into a solid player, even all-star level for a couple of years.
  16. I don't know if that's true. He is probably as racist as a lot of old white guys, but I don't know that he has really strong feelings either way. Ultimately, everything is about him. He will do or say anything that benefits himself in terms of fame and fortune. I think his racist campaign is more of a sales job to his base than something he really cares about. He is a lot worse than Haley, but not because of racism.
  17. She also said she was going to pardon Trump, so screw her. She might be less crazy but she is still enabling the crazy. When she drops out of the race in a few weeks, she'll throw all her support his way.
  18. but but but, what about the Clinton death count?
  19. I was going to do that until I saw what a difficult time she had addressing racism. That's a non-starter for me. My current plan is to vote for Phillips over Biden. Biden's favorability rating is awful and I think the Democrats are making a big mistake letting him go pretty much unopposed.
  20. He would still be President if there were not term limits.
  21. I was speaking in general, pobably should have responded to Edman rather than you.
  22. Every case is different and I don't care at all whether Mize makes 700k or a million. I just don't know that I'd see it as a positive thing if the GM of my favorite team developed a philosophy of consistently playing hardball with his own players.
  23. I do not care about Kimmel or Kelly at all and do not know the details of their cases, so my post is not about them specifically. I do think it's ridiculous how people excuse their own party's trangressions a lot more easily. However, I think sometimes your comparisons get stretched too much. If somebody apologizes for something that they did once and do not continue a pattern of bad behavior, that is a lot different from someone who does something very offensive, won't apologize it and continues to do offnsive things throughout their lives. An example of the former would Be Obama's "special olympics" comment. It was really disappointing and inexcusable when he said that. He then apologized and never said anything remotely like that again. It is still a bad mark on him because no President should say anything like that, but it's something that can now be mostly excused. Then you have Trump who says or does offensive stuff like that pretty much every day of his life, never apologizes and usually never admits to it and continues to show that his bad behavior is exactly who is. Yet, his followers still look up to him like a god. Just to give an example on the left, I present Bill Clinton, who (although not quite in Trump's class) was and still is an unapologetic pig.
