Lmao at Betts and Lindor on ESPN’s All Decade team when they barely played half the decade
Strong criteria"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Since we're about to hit January, couple things:
1. You all need to decide who I'm transferring commissioner status to so they can set up the league early February
2. You now have about a 6-8 weeks to find at least replacements for myself and LG. Not sure who all of the others is still not returning, but it's at least two.
My list of reasons to not return has only grown sorry to tell you all. I already had started to watch baseball less the past few years. Then the Braves pulled their stunt which really pissed me off. And I also have a lot of personal stuff going on trying to start a small side business in the next year that will consume me more and more as we hit the summer months.
If those of you who were on the fence about coming back could give some indication by mid January I'm sure the rest of the league would appreciate it so they know how many people they need to find to fill the league."One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever.

Saw it scrolling through ********.
Also I believe I said I watch it less and less.
Scores and stuff like this are pretty easy to look up in a minute or two. Obviously quickly checking things like this is what will drop off last
Hell I’ll probably still post in this thread this year. I made this post while taking a sh*t (srs)
But thanks for checking in on me dad"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow.

Out:
Me
LG (you guys are technically kicking him out. I’m sure he’d be back if you needed a body)
Uncertain:
Saalty
JY
Chill (mentioned something about being oversees so not sure how y’all want to handle it. Doesn’t sound like he’s voluntarily leaving though)
Pretty sure everyone else was in if I remember right."One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable.

Honestly guys the Astros were garbage at home in 2017. They were a better road team than a home team (that may have been 2018, check me on that).
This past year they were better at home and the sign stealing stuff went away when Cora and Beltran (who really is getting away with robbery here) left. Obviously the signs did not affect Bregman or Altuve, Yule or Springer because they had monster seasons in 2019. Out pacing their 2017 (altuve when healthy).
They beat the dodgers on the road 3 times in the 2017 world series. They could not steal the signs on the road. Yu Darvish was already obviously tipping his pitches with his glove to begin with and his slider was literally not moving. There is more than enough visual evidence to prove that. The Astros were not going to lose the division in 2017, sign stealing or not.
The yankees have more beef than anyone in 2017 with the Astros. The the Yankees had Arod in 2009 juiced out of his mind, Clemens in years juiced out of mind, Giambi... I can keep going on and on. So I frankly don't think the Yankees are in a position to open their mouths. Red Sox had Manny, and 2018.
Mainly if the hitter gets ahead in the count I can see it working. If you sit on a pitch. But breaking focus on a pitch and a game plan to listen for a bang behind in the count... or take your focus off the pitchers hand to see a subtle sign from a guy at second base... maybe it helped Evan Gattis or some garbage player.
Hinch came out with a raw deal and Jim Crane the owner came away with billions of dollars and looked like the savior. Luhnow is obviously hated by Manfred and may not get a job again, maybe scouting director. Hinch I hope lands somewhere soon.
If anyone thinks the Astros cheated in 2019 and all of late 2018 should be smacked... and also most of the league was probably manipulating the replay cameras. And a lot of the players on other teams I suspect were aware. Its why they had so many complex signs even with nobody on base.
That may seem like a homers opinion. But its the truth. Sign stealing is only so effective. The hitter did not have an ear piece in his head, a corked bat, steroids. Just a split second of a bang before a baseball where your reaction time may not even be humanly possible to process the noise to pitch type to pitch location to the speed of a pitch.
They got made an example of and people without distinct baseball knowledge are acting like they are the Chicago Black Sox. I know there are enough fans in here to know what is actually possible.
Id like to see the stats when the audio is on blast and you can hear something, and stats when there was a player on second base.
Really Carlos Beltran needs some sort of discipline here. I am not sure with his reputation after that World Series that he immediately gets the Mets job. But hell Beltran was garbage in 2017, and obviously wanted the bang. Alex Cora probably banned from baseball.Last edited by melanimal_old; 01-15-2020 at 11:14 AM.
