Turns out there was a definitive answer, and the Astros just didn't do much to find it out when they made their judgment. Here was my comment on...
My issue was with the Astros dismissing her reporting and calling her story wrong. Fortunately, they have since apologized and said they were...
LOL at everyone here who said the reporter was lying or that there was no way to determine intent or all sorts of other inane things. Glad the...
Sure - but we say the same when Pressly or Harris or Osuna came through in big situations too. And many of our struggles this series have been...
When our pitchers limit damage when people are on base against them (Cole, Game 4 against NY for example), we don't say the Yankees hitters...
No it's not - it's baseball. Teams get hot all the time and win World Series. Just look at how many previous wild card winners there have been....
Yes, I already covered that. 2008 and 2012 HAD OBAMA AND GENERATED RECORD HIGHS. Of course it went down. Dems were winning the midwest before...
Turnout in 2008 and 2012 was at record highs due to Obama - that's not going to be easy to get back on board. Beyond that, black turnout in 2016...
Sure - look at the chart in there: https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/visualizations/2017/comm/voting-rates-race-hispanic.jpg It...
No - he gets to choose his pool and he's saying he'd rather be in the underdog pool (90 teams) than the favorites pool (10 teams). It's harder to...
So 7 out of 10 have been underdogs. Except each year has 1 favorite and 9 underdogs. 3 out of 10 favorites won (30%). 7 out of 90 underdogs won...
Hillary won by 3 million votes and turnout was fine. She lost blue-collar white voters in the midwest (Obama-Trump voters), which is what cost...
Way back when this all started, Klobuchar was my original favorite candidate to win the nomination if I had my choice (I think she's wipe the...
Oh absolutely - that's the whole theory of the Biden campaign. You notice he's really just running a general election campaign already and not...
There is a paradox of choice at play here - GOP went through it in 2016 as well. The more candidates you have, the less happy you'll be with most...
The former - I think the mostly likely outcome is Biden winning the nomination, and then picking one of those two as his VP. Abrams gives him the...
All of the top 8 or so, except Yang and maybe Sanders. But anyone else down to the Klobuchar/Booker tier could do it.
So you don't want to be the favorite because they don't always win. You know who else generally doesn't win even more? The underdogs.
You can be tired of whatever you want - fans are generally stupid idiots so it's normal, but the players are better/smarter than that. A loss is...
LOL. So the new defense is that he *was* taunting her but it was justified? That makes the Astros look even worse for flat out lying in their...
