We essentially did that with Tim Anderson. Sure he went to a JuCo, but he was a basketball players up until mid high school, and essentially came out of college with a high school level of experience. I'd love a Howard pick in concept, especially if we get an underslot deal to do it.

Its a bit hokey, as it is was designed for kids, but this is a great way of putting the generational effects of poverty and discrimination into a skit. It is WAY bigger than personal responsibility as a society. At the very end, where you have the kids who don't even run, those are the kids who turn into adults who poison the next generation, and they take down the generation after that, etc. Why run a rigged race? There are A LOT of people who feel that way, and teach their kids the exact same thing. So while it is easy to say it isn't my fault they ended up that way, WE ALL are the ones who bear the greater burden. Who pays for them as adults who can't contribute to society? We all do.

l think right now they can play the game. With no sports around, no one really notices this in the grander, non-hardcore fans sense. Now if Basketball and or Hockey start playing again, and baseball still hasn't figured this out, THEN we will be looking at hell to pay. We will see who blinks first, but I think the underlying agreement being in place means the owners can hold out a bit longer than the players.

How are people today personally responsible for their parents and grandparents being discriminated against.

Hey great. Now welcome to reality. We have built a society of disenfranchisement. There is a significant portion of the United States who literally don't have two parent stability. Many don't even have on around. So then what? As a society we have a choice, you can either pay in childhood to put kids into a position to succeed, or you can spend their adulthood paying for that failure. Incarceration, welfare, or education, pick one. We have generations of adults out there who can't teach their kids to read, let alone how to do math, science or anything that kids need in 2020. Too many kids are already starting from behind. If you forget about them, you build the next welfare generation and prison population.

If you read the whole letter, he isn't calling for everyone to loot, or any other law breaking,. but he is making it clear that the longer you ignore racial equality, the more likely you make it that you will see this kinds of incidents happen.

I was just talking about this letter yesterday when people were misquoting Martin. It reads like was written for right now, 55 years later.

Let's be honest, if she was that ready to file divorce, this didn't just happen over night. She had wanted to for a long time but didn't for some reason.

If he is as abusive of a husband as he is a cop, this might have been her chance to get out while having the cover to do so. He isn't going to be able to come after her, and she knows it. She is leaving a cop who has gotten away with 18 counts of abuse as a cop, what chance does she have? Calling the police? This might have been her salvation.

I will upgrade that to probably worse, and there is zero chance at a conviction.

They just teargassed a public protest for a Presidential photo-op.

When you add in the disgusting racist faction of this family, I am not sure there is an ownership group I dislike more than this one in pro sports, and that doesn't even include the Cubs factor in it.

LOUDER FOR THE SOX FANS IN THE BACK

If only we knew a famous media reporter.

Howards connections to the White Sox just seem like the really obvious thing to me, but I guess we will see.

Ok Boomer

So is the idea that some people are just more "infectious" than other people? Or that we don't know why some events happen or not?

So is that to due to social distancing of the people, or the virus not being as infectious as was previously thought?

Form the sounds of it, there is a number of players who fall into the at risk category. I would bet the number is greater than zero.

The Union has to negotiate for the best financial plan for everyone. The individual players will each make a decision as to whether that is good enough to risk it for.

I didn't think I would have to explain this part, but MLB tries to restrict dangerous activities to minimize injury and death because players know their contracts can be voided if they get hurt doing forbidden stuff. See also Cespedes. In this situation, the very act of playing baseball would be the dangerous activity and be the thing that could cause injury and death by a deadly virus.

I guess you haven't heard about the list of things that players contracts ban them from doing, have you.

To follow up on this, check out this string of tweets on the topic, Hopefully this helps the Sox.

It isn't nearly as simple as that. You also have to look at how many people have been exposed to get an accurate death rate. It isn't hard to think that in an athletic situation where you are intimately close with all of your teammates, plus the other team, if one guy gets it, it will explode through clubhouses. We see it happen with a normal flu for sure. Baseball is probably the least of the major sports when it comes to contact, but it still has its points where guys come into closer than social distancing from each other.
