It's a gray area. They have zero call in their employer's decision. If some want to speak out, good on them. If others don't, then what is actually accomplished by forcing them to? What goal is served?

Cool. Quick question ...

If you think Stephanie McMahon is supporting a fascist regime that is hurting the LGBTQIA+ community, teen suicide prevention, and SNAP ...

Why are you calling out someone for literally calling out these issues to her?

Oh, was Obama a fascist regime too?

Until or unless you can prove that Lesnar knew the relationship was what it's alleged to have been, the most you have him on is adultery.

Now, would I have brought him back? No. He's not nearly worth the PR headache.

Sure. Ill bite on the Lesnar thing. I think he's a pretty gross human being whose relationship with his boss was blurred between employee and friend.

Your boss saying his gf wants to fuck you? Insanely fucked up. Your friend saying it? Hey, hot wifing is a thing...

The company is literally owned by a corporation ...

The CEO of that company is a liberal whose brother was quite literally Obama's chief of staff.

Yes, a public figure in a public family showing public support of her mom. You live in a black and white world. Good vs evil. No gray. You are a child.

Linda McMahon left WWE before AJ Lee even started wrestling ... Linda McMahon's husband sold the company two years before AJ Lee returned to the company.

And tell me what made you stop being a CM Punk fan...

Was it when he left ROH? Joined WWE the first time? Used homophobic slurs in a weak attempt for heel heat? Joined AEW? Or was it when he got fired from AEW?

Most people in this country work for companies where the leadership of that company does shitty things that go against their own beliefs.

Or... idk... the weird bias from an AEW fan account is just right on note.

Right. Why on earth would I take her political stances on SNAP, LGBTQIA+, and teen suicide prevention seriously when she was a teen on snap who attempted suicide and has an LGBTQIA+ sister...

I went Ohtani as MVP/10 wins just to see .. 5%

Was shocked.

It's been a bottom 3-park for hitters the past few years

The wind patterns at Wrigley have been weird the past two years. It isn't just Tucker last year. Bellinger was terrible at Wrigley in 2024.

15.11.2025 01:27 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yes and no.

Tucker is better than his numbers.

Bellinger is worse than his numbers. I really wouldn't trust his production away from Yankee Stadium unless the price went down.

15.11.2025 01:01 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

The Rogers Centre plays much more closely to Wrigley for LHHs than Yankee Stadium. Bellinger was a league average hitter outside Yankee Stadium. Tucker was an elite hitter outside Wrigley.

Do they play half their games at Yankee Stadium?

I'd laugh out loud if Scherzer signed with the Cubs.

I was out drinking with him in 2008. I asked him about his plans over the all star break, and he said he couldn't wait to go back to his parents' home and rip down the Jim Edmonds poster hanging over his bed because he'd signed with the Cubs ๐Ÿ˜‚

They have to get the QB spot right. And that's likely about more than just picking the right talent. It's about the right infrastructure from coaches, to technology, to the talent around him. But that's obviously what went wrong for the Jets in 2022 ... and pretty much every year.

04.11.2025 19:16 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Totally get it. And not a Jets fan here, but there's more to it in capped leagues.

Hypothetical, the Jets use one of the picks they got for Gardner on a CB. What level of production does that CB need to have before his salary (at a fractional cost) makes him just as valuable or more?

It's cool. You value hard-hit flyball pitchers that dont miss bats. Helluva way to build a team. Good luck

04.11.2025 19:07 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Oh, no. Why on earth would they not pay him? Sure, he had the highest flyball rate in the league. And sure, only 4 guys gave up a higher barrell percentage. And sure, only 10 guys gave up hard contact more regularly. And sure, he was bottom 25 in K%...

But they're a big market! Just pay him!

04.11.2025 19:06 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Or, you know, an organization that trusts their pitching infrastructure because of its multi-year run of successfully identifying middle of the market arms just thinks they can do it again...

Yes. This was a massive story.

The wind in Chicago has blown in like 70% of the time the past 2-3 years. The PF i used is the rolling 3 year. Only Seattle has played more pitcher friendly.

04.11.2025 18:23 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Sorry. Second most pitcher friendly park. Their park factor is readily available to you...
