Do you not understand I'm not a Yankees fan? Are you confusing me with somebody else? Seriously dude.... Why do you think a Yankees attack will matter to a royals fan?

Oh. The all time best player in his organization is responsible for the best blowup in MLB history for CHEATING.
Let me remind you.
Bags ofDickTrickle . Suck on them Trebek and suck on them hard.
That's definitely equivalent. Excellent objective reasoning and facts.

Proven cheat and real visual evidence of putting pine tar is > conspiracy of a wire being worn on a player to turning a fb/slider pitcher put out of the park.

I actually member another pitcher that was absolutely nasty, and his that his whole world destroyed by being a 2 pitch kind of pitcher.
Most elite relievers only throw 2 pitches. Heck, the best reliever ever pretty much threw only 1.

Nope I'm not there yet. I will have reasonable conversation.
Hoffman and Rivera ate shit at times too. No one is flawless. Yankee fan you are entitled nothing. Get over it.

So we're now saying that because relievers can give up hits that knowing pitches doesn't matter? And now pine tar further up the bat is the same as the systemic teamwide thing the astros have done? You accuse other people of not being objective and that's what you're saying?

I kind of get what Murrloen is going through. Astros have sucked for a really long time. Hell all of Houston sports have (get fucked Rockets). If the Bengals finally won a Super Bowl I would be elated. I imagine it's how Murrloen felt when the Astros won. But then what if two years later some huge team wide scandal came out exposing the Bengals as cheaters? Tainting that title. I'm not sure how I would react. Probably a lot better than Murrloen. He seems weak minded and can't handle the reality of the situation. But I can understand it. He's just a punk ass bitch who can't handle that his team is full of punk ass bitches.

I get the hate for the Astros, but I just find the narrative that Houston "stole" the World Series to be utterly ridiculous. It's mostly coming from a crybaby team that hasn't been able to straight up buy a world series for the last decade, so they are derriere devastated. That signal gets amplified by a media who treats the LA and NY markets like darlings. Even if the Astros didn't use electronics to steal signs, to pretend like that makes LA the winners by default shows how fucking entitled that franchise thinks they are.

I definitely don't think they default to winners, but they have a case that maybe the outcome would be different. But that's as far as it can go, a what if. That's part of the shitty reality of it all.

Nobody knows what would have happened and anyone else being given any titles is just dumb. If anything got vacated, it'd just be no winner that season, and they're not going to vacate shit. It's never happened in one of the major american sports ever. That doesn't make Altuve not a bitch though.

Stripling: Throwing at Astro hitters 'on my mind'
Dodgers pitcher Ross Stripling said he would consider throwing at Astros hitters "in the right time and in the right place" if he were to face them in the coming season.
