WHAT WAS THE COUNT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you telling me this is a different guy? Wait what?

Sorry trying to compare basketball and football to baseball when it comes to these butt hurt rules that old school baseball has - its just note even close. But the end is near for all that.

nice try but not exactly the same... yeah taking a knee and not trying to score in football is sportsmanship. But in football people get smashed every play - so its also protecting your players. Also knees are taken also to avoid turn overs. It's not purely a sportsmanship thing.

fixed....

yeah i agree the media is loving it - but Tony preaching about the rules of sportsmanship over and over made it worse. He could have made it go away faster.

thats the point exactly lol... you dont know either that there was any signs missed or ignored...

Because this story is bogus... if you watch the video mercedes isn't looking at McEwing because at 16-4 why would he be?

I never saw any quotes from McEwing.

thats a completely different situation and plus the entire "he ignored a take sign" is either revisionist history with some fictional editing or complete bullshit... he isn't even looking at McEwing.

McEwing told him to take? and McEwing said that? Where is that posted anywhere - I haven't see one quote anywhere from McEwing. If you watch the tape - mercedes isnt even looking for signs - because there are none in a 16-4 blow out. Its ironic that you are boldly talking about lies and BS when a lot of the stuff you are saying is debatable or flat out made up by TLR. So mercedes had NO CHANCE of being hurt? Do you think Duffy threw behind him on purpose? Or did he miss? You know when pitchers throw at hitters they can often miss their target - it happens.... so the no chance thing you are spewing is false.

GOT YA

sat/sunday are day games.

it will flame out soon

CC is pissed lol...

yeah.... nice headline... but not really...

Soooo... 3-1 count - okay to hit a home run. 3-0 count - absolute disrespect to the game. How can anyone not see how stupid that is...

yeah and get suspended a game when we dont have abreu.. that would have been brilliant. Also where did he "Blame" La russa? What the fuck is this post seriously...

yeah but he was more mad about the "disrespect" towards the game that yermin showed.... mostly that;s what i heard him go on and on about.

the biggest irony is that TLR is trying to white knight this integrity of baseball stuff... and actually he is having the opposite result - he is making people hate it even more.

good try though

Yes he was pulling most of that shit straight out of his ass - go watch the video from jomboy. I dont know the signs - i said no one was even looking for signs.. because they weren't. Yermin looks for like maybe 1 sec the entire at bat towards the dugout. No one is looking for signs in a 16-4 game.. because there arent any

thats not why larussa cared - he said over and over why he cared.. because he thought it was bad sportsmanship.. It had nothing to do with protecting the players... no one is buying that line.

The problem is that half of your novela here is based off of a lie and something that never happened. There was no take sign - go back and watch the game. At the end no one is even looking at the dugout because there is no point. They probably expected Yermin not to swing - but all the "i ran to the top of the dugout" ect ect - that's all a bunch of BS. This theory that Larussa was playing chess and not checkers made me fucking laugh so hard... cmon man If this is what he was doing - he would have said that the 20 times he was asked about it. Just no way man
