    The guy is unlikable as hell and handles a pandemic terribly, and the Dems still manage to blow it. The rioting and looting that happens after a police shooting, regardless of whether it was justified or not absolutely hurt the Democrats. The recent riots in Philly over a completely justified shooting did NOTHING to help the Dems, and I wouldn't be surprised if it shifted the tide for a significant chunk of independent voters.

    Trump is going to win this again isn't he? He's dominating pennsylvania.

    OAN for me
  6. Laurence Holmes was flabbergasted when Carrington called him out for his strong criticism of the La Russa hire. Laurence proceeded to address him as "young man" in a condescending fashion.

    I live on the north side of Chicago, and there are PLENTY of silent Trump supporters. Either in person or on Facebook, people are extremely bold with their disdain for Trump. Maybe it's the people I know, but you are much more likely to verbally attacked for supporting Trump than you are for supporting the left around me. I've seen multiple posts on Facebook today stating that if you voted for Trump, that person will no longer be friends with you. I was working on the southside in 2015-2016 doing some road inspection with 1 other guy. We stopped and talking with somebody doing campaigning around there. The person told us that if you admit to being a republican down there that you'll get roughed up. I'm not blaming one side over the other here. Both sides have shitheads. Claiming one side has more than the other just makes your biases clear.
  9. Anyway, I think Jose wins this. It's a shame it will have an asterisk due to the shortened season, but who knows if he keeps that place up in a 162-game season. I doubt it.
  10. I didn't say anything about steroids here. I just made an observation. You came to that conclusion yourself.

    All I know is this is fucking hysterical, and if you disagree you need to get your sense of humor examined.
  12. RBIs greg? Do you also piss in a chamber pot and bloodlet when you are sick? Get with the times bro. RBIs are worthless. I would lead the league in RBIs if I had Tim Anderson ahead of me in the order.
  13. His resurgence and production at his age is something you would see in the 90s MLB. Crazy.

    The dreaded triple entente consisting of Harris, Pelosi, and AOC. greg is the GOAT. If there was a Soxtalk Mount Rushmore, greg has to be on there, right?
  15. Who the hell ever thought what WSD said was gospel? I don't know anybody that did. Stone is a special baseball mind and what he says often goes hand in hand with what goes on with the team. Equating WSD with Steve Stone's at any level is boneheaded. WSD can't even carry Stone's jock strap.

    There's a lot wrong with this, but regarding the "strong and viable military". The military budget is typically bloated and rises no matter who is president. Both sides take money from defense contractors. Do people really think the longtime establishment democrat will totally destroy the military? That's just insane. I'm somebody who this is it is ridiculously bloated and should be cut, But that won't happen. The defense budget will continue to be massive no matter who wins this election. I'm sorry man, but this is just so cheesy. It sounds like something that would be read on Rush Limbaugh's show. You need to be drinking some strong kool aid to honestly think that applies to Trump (or any other candidate).

    Renaming "French Fries" too "Freedom Fries". Never forget.

    George W Bush started a meaningless war against the wrong enemy that resulted in the loss of many lives, a shit ton of money and helped created ISIS and further instability in the Middle East. Sorry, but Trump is not GWB levels of bad yet.
  19. We can dream fathom... Would you give up Cease in a Nimmo trade? I'd strongly consider it, but Nimmo's injury history makes me nervous.
  20. Nimmo is still my dream candidate for RF, but doubtful the Mets trade him. Bauer would obviously be great, but I would settle with Braun Stroman
  21. Sounds like he is a fan of Sheriff Joe Arpaio, which is a red flag to say the least
  22. I'm sure this got posted... But I'll do it anyway. https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/vacuum-tony-la-russa-loves-arizonas-sb-1070/ "In 2010, Arizona governor Jan Brewer signed a law that required police officers to investigate the immigration status of anyone they interact with “where reasonable suspicion exists that the person is an alien who is unlawfully present in the United States.” It also restricted local governments from enforcing federal immigration law to anything less than its fullest extent. When put into action, that law, SB 1070, effectively gave police the power to stop anyone who looked Latin American and demand to see their papers. This law was so unpopular nationally that it sparked threats of an economic boycott of Arizona, including from several MLB players and then–White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen, who said they wouldn’t attend the 2011 All-Star Game if it were held in Phoenix. La Russa publicly endorsed the law. Later in 2010, La Russa appeared at Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally in Washington, where he presented Pujols with an award."
  23. Is Jerry really going to open the checkbook even more because Hahn "agreed" to make La Russa the manager? We all have to hope. Hahn should offer to bring in Gar Forman for an upper management roll. That may earn an extra 5m in payroll courtesy of Mr. Reinsdorf.
  24. A man's man. RIP to a dying breed.
