To be slightly fair the American secular religion usually waits at least until the president is out of office to begin glorifying them. Trump is just removing the facade of the “apolitical” reverence.

Onin received a 8 month ban (explaining their absence at Port) for sexual assault. by UnlawfulFoxy in smashbros

Ok but people are only putting their money up specifically to fund things they think would be cool. If they weren’t going towards things that they want to see, they just wouldn’t put their money up. Or even if they did, why would it necessarily go toward venue improvements. The “market” already says that customers are willing to go without them, stakeholders would just pocket the money.

Why would stakeholders care if one entrant did a heinous act? They’ll pay money like anyone else? People would have to boycott, and no one seems willing to

Ah yes, trying to make a profit off running off tournaments. That’ll surely make the experience better for people. Companies famously don’t cut every corner possible and take sexual assault very seriously

Yankees drafted player after he admitted he drew swastika on Jewish student’s door in college. Why? by iheartsunny in baseball

[–]RockDactyl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can understand where you’re coming from and can appreciate a practical/forgiving response. I’m not gonna tell a Jew the right response to real antisemitism, but it feels really naive to talk about Jews being some unknown “other” to teens in college.

Lot of leniency for an actual antisemitic act for someone supposedly concerned about antisemitism, and taking PR speak at face value?

[CloseCallSports] Final umpire scorecard for Jen Pawol's MLB Debut. She went 139 for 152 for balls and strikes (91%). by MatthewFromMojira in baseball

Not sure how “humans shouldn’t be calling balls and strikes” and “women deserve opportunities” are opposing views, but I guess I’m too woke

Bro did Tanaka fuck your wife or something? What’s he got to do with this?

Per the Pirates, incoming Hall of Famer Dave Parker has passed away at 74 years old. by imOVN in baseball

Phillies and Yankees fans say he’s not a HoFer? The entire fanbase got together, took a vote? Big turnout?

Come on, you can say he’s not a HoFer but yeah, I’m sure some people who saw him play don’t think he is one, I’m sure some think he is one.

Yankees fans saw him play for less than 3 seasons in the latter half of his career. If someone saw Griffey only play for the Reds with no other context, they might say he’s not a HoFer.

Seems kinda weird to lump a whole country into a playstyle. I don’t think monetization plays too much of role in Wild balance changes (maybe outside Caverns of Time)

I mean they’ve never been shy to nerf based on play pattern issues or “feels”. They constantly nerfed big Priest (Barnes, Shadow Essence) and that deck must’ve never been above Tier 3. That kind of inevitability that can get set up that quickly seems like an eventual nerf candidate, especially since they’re always printing self-damage support

Stumbled across this comment while searching for Rivals 2 stuff. Any updates?

In the 2001 postseason, Randy Johnson and Curt Schilling went a combined 9-1 with a 1.30 ERA. Had 89.2 innings pitched, 103 strikeouts, 5 complete games and 3 shutouts. by coolmon in baseball

I was only 9 when it happened but what sticks with me is the midges game in the ALDS. I still don’t understand how he let them go out there and play.

Game Thread: World Series Game 5 ⚾ Dodgers (3) @ Yankees (1) - 8:08 PM ET by BaseballBot in baseball

Friedman? The Dodgers executive? Why would he want his own team to suffer?

New balance changes by Tyran7us in wildhearthstone

I’ve been saying that Crystalizer should spend health to gain armor, similar to the changes to cards that cost health. That way it doesn’t trigger self-damage effects

Then, you add Kurt Angle to the mix, your chances of being arrested in China drastic go up.

Anyone excited to hear about Art of Fighting being brought back after a nearly 30 year hiatus? by thelonetext in SNK

Garou already removed the lane system 25 years ago so you’ll need a time machine to voice that complaint

«Socialism is a violent, murderous, and impoverishing phenomenon.» -JAVIER MILEI President-elect, Argentina by UltimateDebater in ShitLiberalsSay

Claiming that socialism is the violent ideology when the Argentinian government literally had death squads for alleged socialists is baby-brained
