Yep, I know what you’re saying. It’s sort of even hard to talk about because as you said, movies have made us think of things one way and hard to break that.

And just like sci-fi movies....are we still basically cavemen compared to another civilization out there? My wife said "I mean, why would they come here, I just can't fathom exploring another planet like that.." and my response was "I mean, the US is doing that on Mars right now..."

Right. And obviously it goes without saying a UFO doesn't have to mean space martian, it could be anything that we simply don't know what it is. I also agree completely there has to be something else out there, but are they here? I do think it's interesting about what Trump did and putting that small UFO provision into the COVID relief package, and how they had to release information by late June (that was mentioned in that Twitter thread.) Part of me wonders if this slow "leak" is to start bracing people that information is coming that will change history forever. And no one knows how the world would react to official confirmation that something else is out there. It also will create a tremendous amount of doubt, somehow more than there already is, that the government has been lying to them for decades. It's a whole big mess if/when this comes out.

This is a good thread https://twitter.com/i/events/1395857752807854084?s=10

I’ve asked 3 or 4 people in my circle “Hey did you see/hear about the 60 minutes piece ok UFO’s” and no one has any idea what I’m talking about.

1. I didn’t do that 2. You have no idea who did that

Then leave. NO ONE will miss you.

Luckily I really don’t think he goes anywhere for a while. I know it shouldn’t really matter, I just don’t see them trading the No. 3 overall pick from 2019 who’s already in the ML.

While I disagree with a few things here, this is a perfectly reasonable, well-thought out post. So well done.

You really can't seem to figure it out, which while not at all surprising, I'll try to make it as clear as possible for a small-minded individual such as your self. No extra charge. This is where things began, you stated an incorrect fact. You formed your opinion based on incorrect information. NO WHERE in that post did you mention you may be wrong. So I didn't call you out AFTER you said you may be wrong, I called you out BEFORE that, when you made this false claim. Get your facts straight. I told you they split with the Red Sox, which would make your previous claim of "only tested for the first time against a good team and failed miserably." This is where you first claimed "perhaps" you were wrong, which is also somewhat odd seeing the time it took you to even reply to my original post, you could have very easily looked up the Red Sox had won nine straight at that point, so there is really no "perhaps" about it. This is just another in a long line of shit posts from you that you just can't get over. You've shown time after time you don't know baseball, you're an incredibly negative person, and I genuinely don't like you. I enjoy when you continue to make an ass out of yourself, and I will continue to call it out when it happens and I'm around to see it. It's really pretty simple. So you can feel bad for me, or sorry for me, or whatever feeling you want to include. Go nuts, sprinkles. I'll be here, laughing at your shit posts all season long.

I don’t want to go down the whole unwritten rules rabbit hole again because we all beat it to death, but I think a lot of the discussion here came from a misunderstanding of what people were upset over, and it sort of relates to what we are discussing here. Yermin “ignoring” a sign from the coaching staff isn’t something 98% of fans here are going to agree with. That’s not good when a player does that. Again, I think almost everyone here believes if a player ignores a sign, that should be fixed because you can’t have that happening on a regular basis. If it’s a punishment, so be it. The issue most had is WHY LaRussa gave him the take sign, and then how he handled the “controversy” after. 1. He called for Yermin to take on 3-0 because of “sportsmanship” and “respecting the game of baseball.” That’s a load of shit to a lot of people, myself included. Still doesn’t make Yermin ignoring the sign Ok, but that’s not the type of manager I want coaching my team. Not when in Spring Training both the players AND Front Office were talking about having more killer instinct, wanting to step on people’s necks. 2. It came to light because LaRussa awoke from his slumber on the bench and was visibility animated maybe for the first time this season when Yermin was rounding the bases. When the media asked LaRussa about his little “outburst,” the Sox manager had no issue calling his rookie clueless and went out of his way to apologize to a team this fan base absolutely hates. Apologized for hitting a home run. I don’t believe this weekend had anything to do with what happened in Minnesota. I think the Yankees are playing really good ball and the Sox have been playing a bit over their heads without two of their best players in the lineup. There will be better stretches than this, and there will 100% be worse.

Wrong.

Some of that may be true. And I’m 100% more critical of TLR at this point in the season because he’s given us plenty of reason to be. I know for a fact in the first week or so of the season, I posted how that I felt the hardest part of the TLR stuff was going to be the players accepting him, but once they seemingly got past that in Spring Training, I really felt like he was going to be OK in the dugout. X’s and O’s. He seemed to be pulling the right levers. That QUICKLY changed after the Foster stuff, Hendricks on 2B, Giolito being gassed, etc. So there is no question that a bigger microscope is being placed on TLR right now. But I agree it’s not totally fair to not at least notice some of the good stuff as well, and there certainly has been at times and I’m sure there will be in the future. But as a whole..it’s been pretty bad, in my opinion.

1. Don’t think you know what the definition of a “reach” is, this seemed fairly cut and dry. You were wrong, I called you on it. You’re a clown and can’t take being called for your awful posts. Again, simple. 2. It “getting old” is obviously a subjective opinion. I’m sure you do feel that way. I don’t. So as long as you want to keep questioning anyone that doesn’t agree with your “logic” You better believe I’ll all over your shit posts when you make them. As I said early, be better. Because I’m plenty focused, buttercup.

Throwing a strike and getting out of a bases loaded, 1 out jam in the 9th are two different things. Very few people are defending the performance of Hendricks today. Everyone agrees the dude needs to throw strikes in that situation. A walk in simply unnaccetpable. We’re talking about the bigger picture here.

When you play logic police around here, get expect to get called out when you don’t have easily obtainable information correct. Anything else? Or do you want to keep going?

It does when you bases your entire premise around this statement: Sox only tested for the first time against a good team and failed miserably. Swept. There was no “maybe I’m wrong” in that post, only after I called you out for being clueless. Be better.

Here is my issue. I don’t disagree with the logic from LaRussa here. The problem is when the first two got on...maybe make an adjustment. Bummer isn’t getting it done at that point. But instead no matter what the result, Hendricks was getting Judge, no matter what Bummer did .

Go pound sand.

THEY HAD WON 9 STRAIGHT COMING INTO THE SERIES. Jesus, for someone that preaches logic, you’re an absolute dunce.

Putting your closer into a game with bases loaded and one out in a tie game is not “whatever” but it’s ok if you don’t understand the game, it can be complicated sometimes.

They split against the Red Sox

So Hendricks has to be better there, throw a fucking strike..but once again he's not putting his players in a position to succeed.

So happy for Vaughn. Love to see it
