  1. And apparently it is JUST pollsters, because they have zero problems telling anyone else. Everyone else: Hey let's have a discussion about the election polls Trump voters: HELP HELP I AM BEING REPRESSED!
  2. Again, you must not watch the President at all. He attacks anyone and everyone. Remember those cute nicknames he has for everyone? Why is that different?
  3. How many people did you just attack in your previous posts? Why do you think you get to call everyone names, but everyone else can't answer?
  4. So what is your considerable political training that allows you to talk about topics like this?
  5. I know you aren't talking about Trump voters, because they are anything but silent.
  6. We JUST saw a right wing militia who was ready to kidnap a sitting governor. We have seen plenty of riots with Republican Presidents, governors and mayors. Hell these things are happening right now with Republican President who routinely talks about violence against those who oppose him. if you don't see it, you don't want to see it.
  7. What exactly was moronic about it? All he did was talk about the losses and the difference between playing most of a season and none of a season with fans, and the difference on the bottom line because of it. Remove your feelings here.
  8. Especially since so many teams will be looking to cut, that taking on a contract like this will come at a discount.
  9. Honestly? I am the furthest thing from a Biden supporter. I believe that Donald Trump is such a danger to this country that I am willing to support Biden despite all of his baggage and things I disagree with. The funny thing, the President himself has said a multitude more of irrational and stupid things, why isn't anyone questions his mental capacity?
  10. I would like to see these happen, as I think this is where the best values will come this winter, probably the best of our lifetimes, but I don't hold a lot of faith that this team will spend a lot of money to take advantage of it.
  11. This is not really accurate, but it won't stop it from getting repeated. He got asked a press question about the topic, and he answered it.
  12. This is also a great unintentional side point. I am sure you noticed the demographics of the people who get to fight the wars. Keeping enough of American poor and without opportunities keeps a ready supply of people who see themselves as having no other options but to take the military route.
  13. This is one of the dumbest tropes to emerge from this election. Biden is a stutterer. Sometimes the guy has to take a second to translate his thoughts into formed words so that they come out without a stutter, because that process takes longer for him than most people. It is an intentional technique designed to reduce stuttering. The fact the President has turned it into an issue should be enough to disqualify him from the highest office in the land.
  14. When the President actively sabatogued the PR recovery, my hope was that there would be a mass migration to places like PA/MI/WI/FL which would swing the election against him. It would be the most fitting way for him to lose.
  15. Its funny that you mention a clubhouse destructing, because bringing a powderkeg like LaRussa who has no problem making his beliefs public and has publicly said he would taken actions against players who contradict his beliefs, would be the top person is baseball to cause the destruction of a clubhouse IMO.
  16. Well at least they are finally endorsing the Russia vote.
  17. I am sure they will set something up.
  18. Sports have ALWAYS involved politics. Go back generations to find people like Jackie Robinson in baseball, Ali in boxing, the Olympics all of the way back to Hitler in '36 and the black power salutes of '68. Social justice is interwoven in the very fabric of sports. Acting like this is a new thing is woefully ignoring history, at best.
  19. Its a nice goalpost move, but he didn't take a decade off of baseball, he took a decade off of managing. He hasn't done the job for 10 years now. "a different perspective" isn't doing the job. The job has changed a TON during that time. While you claim his track record should earn "respect", you ignore everything that doesn't fit that mantra. There is a lot about his record that earns him fear and trepidation. And yes you are pretending to know what it will take to manager the White Sox, by repeatedly excusing all of the problems in his history, and repeatedly pointing to his track record as an absolution that all of those things will be over come by it. This has already gone badly. The White Sox are the laughing stock of baseball with this hire, free agents are already reacting badly, and his own players are being ignored. This isn't a hindsight situation. When there are this many red flags, it is more than acceptable to be critical in the moment.
  20. Yet he hasn't reached out to his own team yet. How many managers would have done (or more accurately NOT DONE) that?
  21. You are opining that the opposite of all of them. Which means you are making arguments despite your opinion that you have no authority to do so. The problem is that every single one of your arguments are contradicted by Tony's own words, or the words of people who have played for him. Also if a person in my field took a decade off of doing my job, they would no longer understand the federal rule set, which is kind of the point of SEC compliance, and proves my point.
  22. Especially when the key to his argument is to compare him to guys who haven't had a decade off from the job they are about to do.
  23. You quite literally are by making every single contra-argument after listing off why you couldn't possibly know. Your thought would have more validity if you hadn't, but you continue to so so.
  24. You go see him throw in a month and see what you see. If he is healthy looking? Absolutely take a shot at him.
  25. This team has about $20 million in raises coming.
