    Time to play some Red Dead with cheat codes and kill everything on the map

    This seems ominous. Maybe Buxton can't go. Whom else would he be replacing?

    I agree. Getting two day games sucks. Plus it's my daughter's birthday on Wednesday. She was born about the same time that Joe Mauer was laying down a but in game 163.

    Oddly, the playoff bracket and first round opponent i was hoping for. Let's hope i don't end up regretting it.

    Short season, long season, it doesn't matter. September baseball is fantastic! The next three days are going to be thrilling to see how everything plays out.

    I'm 41 and I still want to be a bat boy...

    I've never stopped my distant for that club.

    Time to get everyone right. Get your post-season players ABs and figure out the pitchers. Balance out the line-up as well. Gotta hold the 4th spot because this squad blows on the road. Good news is as bad as they've been on the road, the Yanks may be worse.

    I just... just really really hate the White Sox... Buxton should have had back to back games with inside the park homers. I wonder how often that's happened?

    The wild card series will be held at the home teams park, not a neutral site. At least that's what I've read.
  11. T_J
    Yeah... I still doubt... he's been pretty terrible this season.

    With the uncertainty of the upcoming off-season, let's hope a qualified offer is enough to keep him here. It'll be a raise for him and he's obviously worth the money to the Twins.
  13. T_J
    I don't know why they pulled him with the game on the line. Give him a shot and test his mettle a bit.

    Did I miss the agreement on the playoff bubble? I saw it was submitted to the players but I didn't see if it was approved.

    The Hometown Nine need a boost. Hopefully they get it from the players coming back but it's not like we've seen much from any of them yet this season.

    The thing about this title is all the teams are playing (basically) the same situation and season. There shouldn't be an *! Nobody, as far as we know, is cheating. I'm not watching the games thinking that the stats don't count and the games don't count. The players sure look like they're trying to win around the league. The teams seem to care. Hell, I care. I want a world series this season.

    I believe he's referring to qualified immunity. It's basically the core issue with everything.
  18. T_J
    Basically yeah. It's just trying to show a level of wokeness

    It's not worthless, it has value. Most actions have value. Even the action of inaction has value. The thing is, to me and through my eyes, their choice not to play is empty because it seems to be only about trying to look good. Nothing about trying to do good. Side note, philosophically, I don't believe in good or bad. I'm a guy that wants changes made. I've been trying to stay away from political lines here during this conversation but I'll show some here. I have been an advocate for demilitorizing for nearly two decades since I left the military. I don't understand why soldiers in war have a more strict rules of engagement than our local police on our own American citizens. I question the constitutionally and our third amendment right to not quarter soldiers with a very military looking unit policing our streets. That doesn't mean I believe that cops are racist or ill intentioned though. It sure as hell doesn't mean I want them abolished! In the end, I see choosing not to play as mere pageantry. I don't see it as noble. I see it as trying to look good to the public and only that.

    My opinion on whats wrong with us... In the beginning we had actual enemies. We had the British. After them it became the Spanish/Mexico. We fought ourselves when those threats dimmed. We picked back up to fight the Spanish again for really selective reasons. We found another threat to unite us in Germany twice. We had the commies after for decades to keep us in fear. We moved on to fear from the middle east. We basically founded and have lived in fear of foreign invasion since the beginning. We've now defeated every that has a legitimate threat to us so now we're turning on ourselves. It's really sad that it seems like we can't get leaders from organizations to sit down and talk things through. Figure out a plan and make things better. Long and off topic...

    There is zero confusion with me on what consequences means. My point is the that the choice not to play is completely empty. It self serving and virtue singling.
  22. T_J
    I just want to say that, to me, this discussion has been very respectful (mostly) and I appreciate people willing to talk.
  23. T_J
    I don't follow football much
  24. T_J
    I'm not sure of the reference. Is it in regards to Colin Kapernick?
  25. T_J
    I didn't invent that story. I was pointing out the consequences of the story. I'm not demanding anything. I'm pointing out that The Twins " Statement" is completely empty. It's selfish. It's virtue singling and nothing more as it stands right now because there are no consequences. Some want to praise The Twins - pat them on the backs - when they didn't do anything. Their action was actually inaction.
