  1. Once they’re in, public opinion doesn’t concern fascist regimes.
  2. I think they fully considered it.
  3. Maybe they won’t let the intellectuals leave America. Can’t humiliate them if they land on their feet somewhere else. That would be a big avoidable L for the regime.
  4. Curing cancer is faggoty horse****? That’s my best guess.
  5. It hurts people, and hurting people is a power trip. Bullies figured that out in grade school.
  6. Counterpoint: they’re in now so just try getting them out.
  7. The question is whether his public is more interested in fixing the economy than in making libtards cry. The latter is everything to them.
  8. I do believe, based on nothing more than what’s in my head after all I’ve read, that Harris et al went into the offseason giving Tork one last honest chance to prove he’s on board with whatever program they developed for him, probably with a healthy dose of skepticism and expecting not much. They gave Tork the chance to dig himself out of the hole and saw very quickly it wasn’t going to happen, and so, here we are. As evidenced by the fact that a week out from pitchers and catchers, no news is coming out about him and his role in the organization. I’m not sure even sending Tork to Toledo would be a good move at this point, because do we want him down there vibing bad around the rest of the talent we have there? So I think we have to move Tork before Opening Day, and I am starting to think we might have to take what we can get for him. A former 1/1 should typically return some substantial above-the-fold talent, but given how public as our moving on from him has been, we might optimistically have to trust Harris to end up with a Flaherty Dodger deal return featuring below-the-radar players that everyone will pan at first, but will come around on halfway into the season.
  9. But he won’t play first base! Or so I hear! Fail!
  10. How is this not fascism?
  11. And this is good how?
  12. Red hats don’t even care how ignorant they come off in public anymore. Even that is a feature and not a bug.
  13. This. This right here. This is what the red hats voted for. This, the banning of ten specific athletes from participating in the stuff of everyday life, the renaming of geological landmarks, all of that. As long as he keeps giving them this, the red hats will gladly sit back and watch them set fire to our constitutional rights, our democracy, the economy, the all of it, satisfied that at least they got what they see as the most important things they voted for.
  14. They will keep attacking and attacking and attacking democracy until they finally beat it to death, or until they are finally beaten to death. No compromise, no in-between.
  15. That’s news to me, too. The way I remember it, they wanted to sign a second baseman once they decided they needed to move Colt Keith to first to cover for Tork who is playing himself out of a career.
  16. I’d be more concerned with him in the field if we committed more than a year to him. As a stopgap while we wait for McGonigle, I think he’s at least adequate.
  17. People like getting high off their own supply.
  18. This is the first I’ve heard that the Tigers signed Torres to play first and he’s refused. That’s news to me.
  19. If you think Patrick Wisdom and jake Bauers are anything like Carlos Santana, then you haven't watched much baseball lately. 😉 In all seriousness, there was already going to be a time soon that Colt Keith was going to have to be moved to first base. If that's the case, might as well start the future of him there now, versus cycling numerous sub-replacement players through the position for the next however many years.
  20. It feels like nothing less than a campaign to remove women from all public spheres of power and influence and releagte to them to kitchen or bedroom where, I guess, they belong or something. Except for the "ugly" butch women. Who'd wanna marry those woofers anyway amirite. They can go to work in machine shops or as theater tech or baristas or driving cabs, or else maybe expatriate to Paris where they can write impenetrable plays and smoke opium.
  21. I assumed he was talking either free agent or trade.
  22. There’s a plan for second base and the rotation after this year.
  23. Yes, they all suck, aren’t full-timers, or are past their sell-by dates. Only Solano was not sub-replacement last year, and he’s 37 and played mostly third base. Committing a year to a guy just because we’ve heard of him is a high risk, because when they inevitably wash out, then what next? And then, what about next year? Like Harris’s strategy or not, it is one that is trying to since a problem for the next few years, not for a single year only to start back at square one all over again.
