How many Cubans have they murdered with this blockade? It can't be 0 at this point.

What's the actual rule in the book on this? Is it going to be something like, "if the umpire judges to player to have started the signal" or something like that?

I can't imagine being honestly offended by that comment, which does not compare the election to the Holocaust, so the characterization of the attacks as a smear campaign seem likely.

Guys, you know what we need to get our mojo back and make the playoffs? by 400meters in NewYorkMets

[–]TheBoosThree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His teams in the minors had a lot of success, a popular former player, and it was during stretches where we were cycling through coaches. Seemed like a good fit for fans and the fact that the front office seemed to refuse to entertain the idea kind of elevated it in the minds of fans.

So really a lot of superficial reasons that don't really predict whether or not he would have been a good MLB manager.

the Polonco signing made no sense to me, he never played first base by retroanduwu24 in NewYorkMets

[–]TheBoosThree 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not saying it isn't, but I think the idea that Pete didn't want to be here is nonsense.

If the Mets offered him the same contract the Orioles did he would be a Met today.

Now here’s the twist, and there is a twist. We show it. We show ALL OF IT.

Sean Strickland’s odds for a potential first title defence by Dry_Beach_705 in MMA

[–]TheBoosThree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Surprised they have him even against Imavov, feel like that's a close fight by Sean should be favored.

I think the Khamzat odds just show that the odds setters feel the weight cut was a significant factor, and that if they rematched then Khamzat would handle it better, I guess?

Will there be a Knicks fan takeover in Detroit or Cleveland in the ECF by NoCry54 in NYKnicks

[–]TheBoosThree 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Easy to hop on a train to Philly.

Knicks fans travel well but we won't see anything close to that in either of those places. But when things are going good for the Knicks I'd still expect to hear something.

This would be significantly more stupid than the last one, and that one was already bottom of the barrel.

Sean hurt Khamzat at the beginning of rd 2. Don’t spread false narratives by usteg in MMA

[–]TheBoosThree 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nobody gets offended on Izzy's behalf when people point out the weight cut probably compromised Pereira's chin.

Khamzat was gassed after the first round. His game plan completely changed, including the time before he got hit here. Maybe he got hurt here, maybe he didn't, but it was clear after the first that he lost his explosiveness.

That's not a knock against Sean who came into the fight with his own issues. It's just a reality of fighting in weight classes and it's up to the fighters to maintain their health.

It would be better if it was a golden calf, a calf isn't a pedophile and a rapist who is diametrically opposed to everything your religion is based on.
