Around Baseball 2022

[Laika]

I wonder how many Canadians when they get arrested ask for their Miranda rights?

 

Canada has their own version of this stuff and it might be even better.

 

USA:

 

You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you.

 

CANADA:

 

You have the right to retain and instruct counsel in private without delay. This means that before we proceed with our investigation you may call any lawyer you wish or get free legal advice from Duty Counsel immediately. If you want to call Duty Counsel we will provide you with a telephone and telephone numbers. If you wish to contact any other lawyer, a telephone and a telephone book will be provided. If you are charged with an offence, you may also apply to Legal Aid for assistance. Do you understand? Do you want to call Duty Counsel or any other lawyer?

That’s too much info. A lot of these dudes are on meth. Keep it short and sweet. Or is America the only ADHD country?

[L54]

Schilling is an *******, and it REALLY bothers him that he's not in the hall, so that's just funny.

 

Put him in after he dies, so he can literally die mad about it.

 

I think it’s the exact opposite. Doubt he loses any sleep over not being in the HOF

It's basically the same thing. Laika left out the part which states, "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law."

 

Canada's is probably better (if keeping criminals out of jail is your goal) because it is put in slightly easier to understand terms and then directly asks the person if they want to call a lawyer. The US's requires the slightest amount of deductive reasoning to hear the statement and then to take it and actually apply it to your current situation. A lot of criminals are too stupid to do that.

He probably loses more sleep over the 2020 election.

Anyway, we could go on and on about this s*** all night and it will only get political which is prohibited. Blame it on Havok for causing Havok.

It's being reported that Trea Turner took less money to go to Philly. Padres offered more.

Always a bridesmaid never a bride.

 

Jays are one of thirty big league teams. That means on average they should have a 3.33333% chance of getting a desirable free agent. They most certainly have gotten more than 3.3333% of desirable free agents over the past couple of years and over the franchise's history.

[Dick_Pole]

Ok so what has Schilling actually said that is so offensive that it should prevent him from entering the HoF? I googled it and some clickbait article presented the following:

 

1. He posted a right wing boomer meme about transgender bathroom laws. - Dick_Pole strongly approves

2. He made a nazi comparison by stating that 5-10% of Muslims are extremists and that in 1940 only 7% of Germans were Nazis. Ok, so we got more ******** boomer memes coming through. - Dick_Pole strongly approves

3. He denied the theory of evolution in a debate with Keith Law. LOL - Dick_Pole doesn't really care

4. He defended the State of South Carolina flying the Confederate Flag. Seems crazy right now but ten years ago it was a pretty common position. This is probably the worst thing on the list so far. - Dick_Pole strongly approves

5. He frequently criticized Hillary Clinton. - Dick_Pole VERY strongly approves

6. Claimed ESPN employs some of the biggest racists in sports. - Dick_Pole strongly approves

7. Says he's not in the HoF because of his political beliefs. - Dick_Pole does not approve, makes Schilling look like a whiny bitch, he deserves to be out for his "remove me from the ballot" stunt

8. Criticized Obama for not having a flag in his recreation of the Selma bridge march, while also seemingly giving the original 1965 marchers some credit for having tons of flags in their march?

 

Looks like this list might be a little bit old. I know more recently he said that Adam Jones' story that he was called the N-word in Boston was ********. Boston is a racist hellhole but Adam Jones is also a huge drama queen. Not sure that one tops anything else on the list.

 

So he's basically your average idiot boomer who is active on Facebook. That's not even close enough to keep him out of the HoF.

 

There's my opinion on the matter. Schilling needs to be a man like he wants all the trannies to be, and not whine like a little 14 year old drama/drag queen about the ballots being rigged.

[Dick_Pole]

If that's what you think counts as macho and masculine, count me out.

 

You're a dying breed. There's a handful of you on this forum propping yourselves up, but thankfully you're going the way of the dinosaur.

 

Actually no, the dying breed are the low sperm count vegan males who aren't manly enough to get a job that can support a family. So many women on various Reddit regret forums who thought they married their ideal progressive husband then realized the only talent or goal he has in life is playing video games. Can't even clean their own room let alone being bothered to please their wife. The connors of the world, for all their various shortcomings, are at least manly enough to breed the next generation of angry, bald leprechauns.

I heard it REALLY bothers him

This is absolutely hilarious. I can pretty much picture you now:

 

Out of shape over the hill right winger who thinks he's macho because he says he played football back in highschool, but in reality he's such a f***ing pussy that he thinks he needs a gun for protection. Has no idea how to use a computer, let alone play a video game, and thinks he is pleasing his wife just because he came.

 

The connors of the world are breeding to much, I'll give you that but mostly with each other.

[Stangstag]

Near his family, back with Bryce and Kevin Long, same division he was used to playing in with the Nats. Must have liked it better in the NLE. Makes sense. The money was probably so close that its a wash.

They have some SP in the pipeline too. They’re going to be a fun team to watch in an interesting NL East. Much to the detriment of the purists here. They bought their way to WS contender

I've never played football in my life. I'm actually in better shape now than I was at age 20. I was raised in a matriarchal family with a hardcore Christian grandmother who had subservient and often drunk male children/relatives so my take on the whole macho/male/female/patriarchy thing is extremely mixed up. I actually rank pretty close to centrist in most online political compasses. I do caucus with the BJMB right more often than not but there are definitely more right-wing people than me here and elsewhere. I've never used a gun in my life, I know how to use computers just fine and I don't have a wife but a harem. Also, part of growing up with an overbearing religious grandmother is my familiarity with video games was less than some Muslim kid in the sand dunes of Afghanistan and I never really picked up an interest in it. I am the absolute worst person ever in video games. I can't even pick up connections between the controller and things like Street Fighter or whatever the hell is so popular nowadays. Like a blind man who was blind his whole life, got sight, and now has to learn how to see. My brain already made all the connections it was going to make by the time I touched a video game. So you got one thing out of 10 correct I guess?

 

I'm also a penny stock genius which affords me a lifestyle of ease, both financially and lifestyle wise (ex. I can go on vacation pretty much any time I want). Which you didn't bring up. But given that you sound like someone who will have to work 400 hours a week for the next 75 years to save up a down payment on a 500 sq ft condo, and still vote Trudeau because you're "progressive", I thought I'd bring it up. Just to know that you'll rage at being an absolute bottom cog of the capitalist system while I'm somewhere closer to the top.

Anybody who goes in a baseball forum to brag about how much pussy they're getting either isn't getting any or is a loser lol.

 

Anyway, Bonds not in the hall is a sham. Schilling to a lesser degree, but absolutely. This retroactive and woke process being applied to the hall of fame is a joke. Either get rid of the garbage that's already in there or shut up and put the best players in there. All half measures.

[Spanky__99]

Justin gonna be flicking the dolla dolla bills all over Kate’s big ass titties tonight. Lucky man.

I guess this is in reference to me? It would have made a lot more sense if you called out my bragging about winning at capitalism than anything about pussy because the latter I mentioned it in passing in half a sentence and only in response to Mr. Goofy Blood above but totally unprompted went on a paragraph-long brag rant about the former. But I guess pussy always trumps money in the incels-who-don't think-they-are-incels world of this presumably mostly white male membership of a message board.

[Spanky__99]

Bryan Reynolds went from 98 percentile in "Outs Above Average" to the dreaded 6 percentile last year. What happened?

 

Good question, this is why I hate defensive metrics.

[Spanky__99]

Judge Schilling on his body of work in the MLB. Not his idiocracy outside of it. He should be in the HoF 100%.

 

This is how I feel, he's a meathead, but certainly should be in the hall. Calling out the writers committee was not wise.

[Spanky__99]

Everyone is very feisty today

 

lmao... apparently, and I'm missing the deleted posts. Hahaha!

[Spanky__99]

He probably loses more sleep over the 2020 election.

 

Bwahahaha... yup, but Laika's right, he's seething pissed that he's not considered for the hall, and rightfully so. He's done it between the lines, whether he's a blithering idiot far right wing nutjob, shouldn't hold no merit to what he did on the field. Same goes for the Bonds', Rose's, Jackson's and Clemen's et al of the baseball world, sad really. The Hall's a comedy act now, has been for quite some time. As mentioned earlier how's Selig in the Hall and he allowed roids into baseball in the first place, such a f***ing sham.

Oh Canada has their own version of every Miranda line. I just didn’t want to paste it all.

Exactly

 

In the US they kind of just need to get the line out

 

In Canada there is some element of making sure the person actually appreciates what was said to them

[Laika]

Let’s just all admit ONE thing:

 

Anyone who debates politics on a baseball forum (all of us) is a loser.

 

So none of this is a flex on how much testosterone you have, lmao.
