I instantly regret this post, because of how many of y'all are gonna skim right past "local" lol

I'm always on some "skeet what you want" sh t, but I don't think it's unreasonable to avoid skeeting about local politics unless (a) you live there or (b) you damn sure know what you're talking about (and, even then, see (a))

One of my favorite incorrect Immaculate Grid plays for “born outside the US”! (Topeka’s Mike Torrez is still my most embarrassing play there)

It’s been ~12 hours and I’m still gobsmacked dude threw away his career like this. He’s got another year of guaranteed money, but ain’t no one touching him after the Braves eventually cut him

Wither the Wheeze Kids?

Oh, that dude is a *first ballot* bum hall of famer lol. Deserves to be excommunicated from the group chat

Must be nice meme kid wearing A's cap

Boooooo 🍅🍅🍅

The WWF/E has been trying to position itself as "mainstream" entertainment for 40 years. It is never going to happen. Pro wrestling has legions of fans, but the people who hate it *viscerally* hate it. They don't want it anywhere near their eyes. Of COURSE, it's not a fit with ESPN

You already know

Three of the California teams are doing this to some degree, too - even my broke ass #athletics! It's March 3, I want to give them my money and they don't want it yet lol

Absolutely perfect that two-time n-word "slip-of-the-tongue" bum Glen Kuiper is on the radio call for this exhibition game featuring two teams impossible to root for!

idk nothin about football but seeing outstanding women of color makin mediocres mad is gonna thrill me no matter the subject

That statue, which was cast back in 1961, was modeled on 1950s Texas Rangers – as in the law enforcement Texas Rangers – Captain Jay Banks. Since it's unveiling 65 years ago it has spent most of its life at Love Field in Dallas. But then in 2020 it was removed and placed in storage. Why? Because Captain Jay Banks was a racist cop who made it his mission to stop schools from integrating. This is an excerpt from the 2020 book, Cult of Glory: The Bold and Brutal History of the Texas Rangers by Doug Swanson, which describes' Banks' role in efforts to keep schools in Texas racially segregated in defiance of the United States Supreme Court's 1954 decision, Brown v. Board of Education: Then there is the form and face of the statue itself. This dates to 1956, when the NAACP, backed with a court order, attempted to integrate the high school in Mansfield, about 30 miles southwest of Dallas. White residents erupted in fury, so Gov. Allan Shivers dispatched the Rangers. But unlike state police in other Southern racial hotspots, the Rangers in Mansfield did not escort black students past howling mobs of white supremacists. They had been sent instead to keep the black children out of a white school.

The commanding Ranger on the scene was Sgt. E.J. “Jay” Banks. A wire service photo showed him casually leaning against a tree outside Mansfield High. To his left, above the school’s entrance, was a dummy in blackface, hanging from a noose. Nearby a white mob had assembled. Some carried signs that threatened death for anyone attempting to integrate the school. Banks saw no need to remove the effigy or disperse the mob. “They were just ‘salt of the earth’ citizens,” he later wrote. “They were concerned because they were convinced that someone was trying to interfere with their way of life.” Blacks were so intimidated that none attempted to enroll at Mansfield. Several days later, Gov. Shivers ordered Banks and a few other Rangers to Northeast Texas, because African-Americans wished to take classes at all-white Texarkana Junior College, a public institution. Again the Rangers’ job was to stop black students from enrolling. As at Mansfield, a mob of white men gathered outside the school. An 18-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy, both black, arrived by cab and began to walk toward the college. The mob blocked their path. Some surrounded the 17-year-old and kicked him, while others threw gravel. The Rangers watched it happen and did nothing except threaten to arrest the two students. That wire service photo of Banks in front of the school with the Black person hung in effigy can be seen at the top of today's newsletter.

The statue was removed from public view in 2020 in the wake of that book about the Rangers being published. This occurred at the same time that statues of Confederates, Klansmen, racists, and segregationists were removed all over the country following the murder of George Floyd. But now the Texas Rangers Baseball Club, knowing full well the history of the statue, its subject, and its removal, and knowing that multiple municipal institutions decided it was inappropriate for public display, is happy to put that statue up in a public concourse at a major league baseball stadium. When I learned of this yesterday afternoon I contacted Major League Baseball and asked the following questions: Is Major League Baseball aware of the history of the "One Riot, One Ranger" statue and its subject, Jay Banks? Is Major League Baseball aware that Love Field and the City of Dallas removed the statue and put it in storage in 2020 after Banks' involvement in attempting to keep schools segregated in the 1950s came to light? Does Major League Baseball condone one of its Clubs erecting a previously-removed statue of a staunch segregationist at its ballpark?; and Does Major League Baseball have any comment regarding the discomfort that will be felt by Black fans when confronted with the statue of a segregationist at Globe Life Field? I did not receive a response. I'm going to assume that the league's silence on this means that it wholly condones the Rangers putting up the "One Riot, One Ranger" statue despite its sordid and extraordinarily well-reported history.

Yesterday the Texas Rangers erected a statue of a segregationist cop at Globe Life Field. A statue that was removed from public property in 2020 because of its racist history. @mlb.com has refused to comment. www.cupofcoffeenews.com/cup-of-coffe...

I got my issues with the WBC and don’t enjoy it anywhere near as much as my people on here, but USA vs Mexico in 2023 in Phoenix was a top five in-person ballpark experience for me 🇲🇽

Seeing a Padres fan demand a cap makes me realize how little most people have thought this through. No one would get devastated by a cap more than the Padres. They have so much dead money, and no farm system. At least now they can still spend their way out of it if they chose to

Kid sis: wrong on pickles, surprisingly right on pineapple on pizza!

Hey. Drop Matt five bucks so he can get his tools.
