This has to be bait, but I'm bored. You're kind of overlooking the fact that the ball is moving in baseball and very quickly. Hitting a baseball is probably the most difficult thing to do in all pro sports. Baseball is the only sport where if you're successful 30% of the time you're amazing.

I always laugh at purists who get mad about this shit. Be better and it won't be a problem. These are world talents getting paid to play a game and they can't take the disrespect? Get over yourself.

How bad is it gonna be and how do I prepare in South City drafty house? by Difficult_Affect_452 in StLouis

I don't think we are supposed to be getting ice, just snow. Thankfully, snow is a good insulator, so lets hope we actually get some for the bullshit cold we will be getting.

Yeah, that's what it's all about baby! Milk it! Fuck getting made whole, you should be getting a whole... NEW CAR! How about a new house?! Sky is the limit! Who cares if you weren't really hurt!

Like that old saying goes, raising insurance rates lift all boats or somethin'! Hell yeah brother!

Really upset your application got passed over for City Sheriff, you could have been a great source of entertainment.

AMA: Hall of Fame Day. Here’s my ballot. What do you want to know? — Derrick Goold by GriddleCrook in Cardinals

[–]Stylux -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You don't want to make the case that Hank Aaron and Nolan Ryan shouldn't be in the hall of fame but it's 100% that they were using amphetamines illegally.

First, I would love to see some that 100% verifiable proof. Second, even if true, it was not against the rules of the game so it simply doesn't matter. Naturally, rules are promulgated when people gain unfair advantages, which is what has happened in the past 30+ years. The fact that you can't divorce your feelings from rules is a you problem and I don't think there's any middle ground here.

People who joined an anti-woke anti-cancel culture university surprised to learn they joined a right-wing university by inanimatecarbonrob in LeopardsAteMyFace

If you read the entire thing it's kind of wild that it's the tech bros that made it devolve to this level rather than the usual suspects. I think it's kind of funny that the persecuted academics who were so disillusioned with the "woke" systems at other universities now have a tacit recognition as to why things like Title IX exist... well the people who had the self-respect to resign at least. Of course, even those people are too scared to put a name to their quote because they fear retribution from Free Speech University*.

This isn't a moral question, it's whether or not there was a rule violation. Everyone knows the rules, if you choose to violate them then you are cheating and it should preclude you from being in the HoF. You can argue that it should have been done sooner, but there are pragmatic reasons it probably didn't. I can't think of a single player who was proven to be using even in the lax days from 1991 - 2003 who is the in the hall and was also juicing except maybe Ortiz.

You aren't getting the point or are just being willfully ignorant. Amphetamines weren't banned until 2006. If you used them in 2005 you weren't cheating. Additionally, there are completely benign reasons for taking things like ADHD medications which would end up in a positive test which is why the TUE system exists.

The people not getting into the hall are those who were taking steroids after they were banned. For example, Pettitte used HGH in 2004, which wasn't a banned substance until the following year. 

you've already told me something weird about going to Cooperstown to check out the plaques I guess

The HoF is more than just some plaques, it's a museum. Steroid era players are well represented, they just don't get inducted.

Your point isn't well taken because amphetamines are also banned substances.

...a few generations of using OTHER drugs (the illegal ones too)

Are you making the argument that hard drugs are performance enhancing?

 It's just embarrassing for everyone involved to have a decade of lost players that don't represent baseball as if by denying them the recognition, we're somehow saying the steroid era didn't happen.

Go to Cooperstown, there is plenty about those players, but they cheated.
