What does this have to do with you flip flopping on the reason for the suspension in a matter of seconds? Do you think I'm gonna lose track of this? In the span of a couple posts you insinuated the suspension was due to taunting, and then decided it was due to head hunting. Let me know when you...

Let me know when you figure out what you think.

I'm not the one who flip flopped on the reason for this suspension in a matter of like 57 seconds. You literally did that. You don't even know what you think. You could've just acknowledged that this suspension was ridiculous and none of these posts would've happened.

The fastball was a foot and a half behind Bregman and Kelly couldn't spot his fastball to save his life. Correa would've just been plunked in the back. Maybe. Anyway, when are opposing pitchers allowed to hit Astros players without being suspended for over 1/10th of the season? Any word on that...

How close are opposing pitchers allowed to get against the Astros without hitting them? 6 inches? That too close? Since we're handing out 8 game suspensions for not hitting your players, I think the rest of the league deserves some detailed guidance on the special rules Manfred has come up with...

For what? Reminder: Kelly didn't actually hit any of your players, or even come particularly close.

I'm sorry you just told me he was suspended for taunting. Maybe you need some time to figure out what you actually believe. And no, the Astros would've been well within their rights to retaliate in the time-honored tradition of baseball. I wouldn't have cared one bit.

You're okay with a player being suspended 8 games for taunting? The same player who your own manager was cussing out just 2 minutes earlier? In your world that's fair? Not only can other players not retaliate in any real way, they're not even allowed to say mean words to your team, and you...

Oh it was for taunting? So now your team's not allowed to be taunted?

So the Astros punishment for cheating is that other teams aren't allowed to throw near them? Harsh! What if an unrelated beef develops between an Astros player and another pitcher this season, and that pitcher decides to engage in some good old fashioned retaliation in the form of a bean ball...

I would've accepted the punishment he handed out if he didn't follow that up with a 22 game suspension for not hitting anyone. The fact that you're completely emotionally incapable of acknowledging how absurd that suspension is is very telling. I don't even care about the Dodgers or Joe Kelly...

Alex Cora said so, case closed! I guess the Yankees 9000th AL East pennant is forever tarnished. Woe is me. I'll never recover from this.

I think Manfred actually did Astros fans a disservice by not punishing the team properly. You guys should be as mad at him as anyone. He's completely incompetent, we'll be lucky if the season isn't canceled within the next two weeks due to his decisions, and that Kelly suspension is factually...

Yuuuup. Exactly. As much as I don't like giving Boston fans any credit whatsoever, they do manage to take their licks and just laugh it off and move on for the most part. Can anyone name a worse cheating scandal than what the Astros engaged in? I'm assuming I'm missing some, but I can't think...

That is some Grade A projection right there, haha. You literally need a therapist to teach you coping techniques because of how salty you are over this scandal. Patriot fans still have Deflate Gate thrown in their faces constantly. A complete non-scandal that was punished far more severely than...

What crow? What universe are you Astros fans living in? It's not the one I'm living in, that's for sure. The team cheats in basically the most egregious way possible, they win a World Series by doing so, they receive essentially zero punishment whatsoever, and Astros fans think they should get...

If the Yankees cheated, they still have 27 championships, and the greatest legacy of any team in all of American professional sports history, and it's not particularly close. What do the Astros have without cheating? A legacy as one of the worst teams in baseball year in and year out, perennial...

I realize your options are limited as an Astros fan so I don’t blame you for this heel turn you’ve taken, but can you reel it in like 50%? The only guy I can ever remember putting on ignore on this forum is the guy spamming bananas and you’re barely above that level right now. At least @Uber...

Sorry thought I had included a link but I must be nuts. Thanks for linking it for me, @popsicledeath. It’s actually the first piece of journalism I can ever remember from ESPN. When you couple this with the fact that they’re going to lecture us about oppression every time we watch a game, it’s...

Let me know when you’re done responding to that post and I’ll tag in.

The league was warned about leaving their dugouts because of Covid. When can we expect the Astros to be suspended 8 games each for that?

I guess anyone thinking about getting revenge on Astros might as well get their money’s worth since you’re getting suspended whether you actually hit them or not. Go right for the noggin. That’s what Manfred is telling them with this suspension.

Was on the fence about paying to watch NBA games this year. ESPN article is the last straw. Not gonna pay to watch the CCPNBA. The NBA is in bed with our literal enemies. I’ll watch when they cut ties.

An 8 game suspension in a 60 game season is the equivalent of being suspended 21.6 games for a normal season. He didn’t even hit anyone. He’s being suspended for throwing near someone. I was about to purchase MLB.TV this year. Fucking glad I didn’t do that. I’m out until Manfred is gone. Dude’s...

So MLB is the worst run league by far, right?

I love the Redskins new name, haha. I just think of it like a fuck you. “Here, try to find something wrong with this one, you fucking faggots. Can we play football now?” I hope they keep it.

Apparently some big scandal with the Washington Whatevers is coming out soon. Please leave my boy unscathed!

I wonder if there are odds on who plays another NFL down first between Smith and Kaepernick.

I need this fake season to happen so the Yankees can win it all, everyone will say it doesn't really count, and then I get to obnoxiously say "Oh fine, we won't count it. We have 27 others anyway." That's what I'm hoping for out of this season. The opportunity to annoy non-Yankee fans with...

He put up 44 fucking points in that Colts game. 378 yards, 4 TDs, 0 INTs. He also rushed for 57 yards. I wanted to throw my TV into the Great Salt Lake after watching that game. Nobody try to blame that loss on my boy. Anyway, I hope people know my tongue is in my cheek for most of these posts...

It's not Smith's fault Reid wouldn't let him play both ways so his team wouldn't blow the fucking 28 point lead he established against the Colts in the playoffs. -edit- Also, Dwayne Bowe makes that list?

Remember when Smith (an actual good QB who also doesn't hate America) was revitalizing KC into a playoff team with Andy Reid while Kaepernick (who is racist and hates America) was backing up Blaine Gabbert? I do.

Alex would've broken Steve Young's TD record. Facts, not opinions.

Stephen Jackson has entered the chat White player posts what DeSean did and they never play another down in the NFL. I guess that's just our privilege.

Hey 49'ers fans, remember when your team benched a vastly superior QB/American in Alex Smith for this anti-American sack of shit and then lost the Super Bowl because of it? I do.

I'm a slave to the franchise.

This Last Dance doc is terrific. Bring back the Sonics.

Put Pat McAfee in there, but only if it doesn't conflict with his show.

98.9% of all game devs are complete morons and deserve zero respect whatsoever. They're bottom of the barrel losers that make every little design choice a fucking root canal for the players. This has always been true. I contend that things are even worse now because the video games industry is...

I don't know how to explain this season to those who skipped it, but it simultaneously felt expensive and at the same time cheap. It feels like a show on the SyFy channel that costs a billion dollars. In one scene you get Ed Harris, and then another you get confused Aaron Paul and Marshawn...
