  1. Yeah I don't agree with how this list is ordered but I guess I'd put Sanchez around 18 or 19.
  2. I don't think anyone could possibly argue that women should not be equal to men. But today's feminist are by and large not interested in equality, they're interested in female superiority and shunning men. My wife and I had our daughter 2.5 years ago. She stayed home with her for a year. That's one less year of experience she has compared to the men in the workforce. She didn't bitch and complain about it, she took it for what it was -- she made a choice to stay home. I then stayed home with my daughter for another 6 months until she was 18 months old and could go to Montessori school. During those 6 months, I did everything from wake up with her, take her places, feed her, change her, read to her, play with her, bathe her, put her to bed, got up with her in the night. All the things society says mothers do. And during those 6 months, any time I took her somewhere all I heard was "wow, giving mommy the day off huh?". NOT ONCE did I get the "sympathy" that my wife got from the same people. In fact if anything, it was "poor mommy must be tired if daddy is taking the baby out." I don't hear feminists bitching about how fathers don't get the same recognition as mothers. I don't see any feminists picketing outside of divorce courts where the mothers are almost universally given more rights than men. It's no longer about equality. For that reason I don't refer to the "social justice warrior" feminists as feminists at all. They're just as bad as their male counterparts that they're so upset about. Women's rights advocates I can get behind. "Feminists" no. And I realize this is a much deeper issue than I care to delve into here, but being fairly well-versed in Canadian Labour history and specializing in Human Resources, I understand the struggle. As it relates to the John Gibbons comment -- people who were offended by it are just looking for a hill to die on. They want a fight and they'll nitpick anything they can find that serves their narrative of a "sexist" culture. And any time they fail at something, they blame it on inequality. Gibbons is a simple idiot but there was nothing he said that should be causing this outrage. Just because you're offended by something, doesn't make your position right.
  3. How many feminists does it take to change a light bulb? 12 One to screw it in One to excoriate men for creating the need for illumination One to blame men for inventing such a faulty means of illumination One to suggest the whole "screwing" bit to be too "rape-like" One to deconstruct the light bulb itself as being phallic One to blame men for not changing the bulb One to blame men for trying to change the bulb instead of letting a woman do it One to blame men for creating a society that discourages women from changing light bulbs One to blame men for creating a society where women change too many light bulbs One to advocate that light bulb changers should have wage parity with electricians One to alert the media that women are now "out-lightbulbing" men And one to just sit there taking pictures for her blog for photo-evidence that men are unnecessary
  4. Likely they're talking about how excited they are for the home opener.
  5. And he's wearing a Skyrim shirt, likely from Whiterun and these are his slaves. If anyone gets that I'll be impressed.
  6. I got to do it once by dressing my 6 month old in a Blue Jays onesie. Because she couldn't walk at the time I got to do it lol.
  7. If he blew his arm out today because he warmed up yesterday, I'd be complaining that we traded for someone who can't pitch in a key situation because he warmed up a day earlier.
  8. $8.34 million a year. Suck it up and get three outs. If he can't throw one inning because he warmed up the day before we have a bigger issue.
  9. Ross Atkins, probably: "All I saw today were sunshine and rainbows and positives. We had a positive experience in Tampa. Everyone's been great. We're all about opportunity, right? So, it was positive to see Leon get an opportunity to pitch in a high leverage situation against a divisional rival. The important thing is that he learns from this experience and takes the positives out of the situation."
  10. Well y'know we want them to have fresh legs, we really do.
  11. Not pinch hitting for Carerra. Bat boy would have been a better choice.
  12. Can we get a serviceable manager please
  13. Well ya know Leon had a great spring for us, he really did. Just showin' a little confidence in the kid, he's gonna be big for us this year.
  14. What's next, is Gibby gonna start wearing a skirt out there?
  15. "If you're worried about Gavin Floyd coming out of the bullpen, he's done it 19 times befores..." Stats flash on screen showing an ERA of 6.75 in 19 bullpen appearances. "See, there are the numbers, nothing to worry about." LOL
  16. Something else is going on with Price that they aren't telling us. Plus he would've been back if he played any position other than goalie
  17. Maybe he just has the shits and didn't wanna run too hard to avoid leakage. We've all been there
  18. Martin is killing me in fantasy
  19. Happ is getting hit pretty damn hard but right at people.
  20. LOL @ bunt with two outs and runner in scoring position. This guy was once our manager...
  21. Nats fans seem to be of the general opinion that Storen was never really that great and choked in key situations regularly. I personally think Osuna is the right guy to close. He wants to close, has been vocal about it, and did nothing but awesome things last year, including key playoff saves. Why fix what isn't broken?
