2020 Election Thoughts
Also, you know what, let's keep going. Here's a map from the University of Michigan that shows the 2016 results in shades of purple. Looks like our country is governed by the minority opinion and wide swaths of land, not people, and the states that receive federal funding than they provide get more of a say in government. Maybe they should start carrying their weight?

So, what nation is this?

2020 Election Thoughts
Big problem is the president not condemning it, saying they did nothing wrong, and expressing outrage at the FBI for investigating it. Biden condemned looting in Portland. Trump supported it. At this point, supporting Trump is supporting those caravans.

Maybe we're trying to send a message to Tony La Russa already?

Tony La Russa was with the Diamondbacks and executed what is considered one of the worst trades of all time, especially because of what was known about how the players were valued at the time. He traded for the wrong Basabe brother because he didn't get the name right. He signed Yasmany Tomas. Their signing of Yoan Lopez blocked their international spending for two years. Your argument that he has success "everywhere he's been"?

Fun thing about this photoshop: I made this back when Obama unveiled his portrait because Cubs fans were trying to claim that the vines in the painting were Wrigley's Ivy. So I used a photo of his beat up Sox hat that he's had since at least '05.

Had prime Andrew McCutchen, Starling Marte, young Gerritt Cole, Neil Walker, and others. A loaded farm system. Couldn't do anything with them.

As evidenced by our profile pictures, Ron and I are on opposite sides of this spectrum. We agree on this point.

It's revenge for us stealing Yolbert away from them.

Clint Hurdle was on your list of candidates.

That would have been celebrated across baseball and the fanbase. It's so infuriatingly stupid that Jerry is trying to atone for Hawk's sins of decades past that he wouldn't even do a full managerial search.

On one hand, the worst choice. On the other hand, the best choice.

How serious is expansion in the next 5 years?
If not for COVID, I think we'd see Nashville, Charlotte, Montreal, Mexico City, Las Vegas and Portland vying for teams. My money would be on Nasvhille and Portland to help balance the west without giving Las Vegas a team. Las Vegas would get a team if they gave up the whole "we'll never allow a team near gambling" thing.
