  1. I DID in fact glean that. Bless those beautiful bastards in charge of naming states.
  2. Like I said, I have no problem with women "infiltrating" the sport. I have a problem with women being hired because they are women. I am in favour of a complete meritocracy. I complain about guys like Pat Tabler, Joe Buck (bad case of nepotism), Matt Vasgersian, etc. My problem with Mendoza is in many ways the same as my problem with Joe Buck. Joe Buck continues on because his dad was a legend in the booth. So this boring dipshit, with no knowledge of the sport he's covering, calls WS games every year. Drives me crazy. I don't think Mendoza is as bad as Buck, but I'd much prefer to hear a guy like Cal Ripken, for example, on SNB instead of female Pat Tabler. Softball and baseball are very different. I don't think her softball play gives her any extra insight into baseball because she doesn't seem to know much. She's just a cliche machine. Lots of women and progressive soy boys do not watch baseball, at all. The Keith Law types are like 1% of baseball's viewership.

    A coworker he was very good friends with and an obvious joke.
  4. She does SNB (higher bar) and genuinely does not seem to know a lot about baseball for someone in the colour booth. She replaced someone who was much better and much more entertaining, which probably adds to my dislike. I'd say "used to play pro baseball" is a better reason to hire someone than "has a vagina" but that's just me. Well, I'm not alone in this opinion. Actually, I am correct beyond all belief. Also, you JUST said she was a diversity hire, meaning you also think she was hired due to her gender. Is your brain short circuiting? Are you also a sexist? I'd go so far as to tell you to lick my balls. Also, never forget: "That's a win for the Cubs" (said after the eventual winning run got on base vs. the Cubs in extra innings.)
  5. Might I add, unjustly, since Fisher in particular has a very similar set of skills.
  6. I don't know anything about North Carolina.
  7. Booooooooooooo
  8. Jessica Mendoza is a s***** broadcaster and was only put on the air because of her gender rather than because she is good at what she does. Doesn't help that she directly replaced Schilling who was actually really good.
  9. Uh, yeah, where the hell is Drury? I mean, bench player at best but it's like he's disappeared off the face of the earth

    Oh man, he was with Whitney and Bisonette and told JOKES?!?! No way!
  11. Agreed. Nashville, Raleigh, New Orleans are all places I'd put above another Canadian team.
  12. It's not him, it's the idiots who proclaim him as the second coming every damn year. No one is saying that about McKinney or Fisher.
  13. Ugh, Gavin Lux apparently might not be the starting 2B for the Dodgers. Wtf.
  14. Yeah, I understand the significance, but I'm weary of these being Jessica Mendoza situations.
  15. I don't really want to go here, but the statement from the government really makes it seem like this is just an opportunity for Canada to dunk on the US.
  16. It's common slang to say the exact opposite of what you're intending to say? That doesn't make sense to me but I guess I could give a s*** Fnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
  17. I never really understood why the Sox were pegged to be over .500. They aren't very good.
  18. This would be a dream scenario. Not only is it a major league park, it's one of the nicest in the league.
  19. No, but they could have worked out a deal with another team to share a park and had the schedule worked so that it was a viable plan B.
  20. I'd really like to see Fisher surprise as well. I also can't wait until Alford is released and we can stop being delusional about his ability every year.
  21. Not sure what you were expecting from Wilner. What happened?
  22. Probably a new poster or lurker who decided to chime in with an opinion you don't share, so label him an alt account or troll. Winning strategy.
  23. Yeah, I think Spanky is oversimplifying if he thinks it's as easy as changing a few bulbs. From what I can recall, the camera angles in Buffalo suck as well.
