  1. Was Happ seriously barking about that pitch being called a strike? That was easily in the zone. If he was upset about Pitch 1 then he'd have a case.
  2. Does "absentee" sound better? I guess deadbeat does sound awfully harsh. I never said Reid is a bad person. If you haven't seen evidence that he's an absentee father who has prioritized football over his kids, I don't know what you'd have to see. He's had one son dead of an OD and another who nearly did and now brain damaged a little girl. Andy's own home was being used as a drug den before his sons wound up in prison with all kinds of prescription and illegal drugs and guns found. Does this sound like someone who knew what is going on with his kids? Maybe he's a great present father whose sons went astray for completely different reasons. I just think the evidence probably suggests otherwise.
  3. Grisham is off to another insane start this year with San Diego. He's definitely looking special.
  4. I think there's an overwhelming amount of circumstantial evidence that suggests that Andy Reid is a deadbeat father who has always prioritized football over his family.
  5. I don't know. That is for people smarter than me to figure out on a case by case basis. It would not surprise me if in some cases it can be scientifically hypothesized that they were not. I just think it's a slippery slope to assume that in all cases where TBI is a factor that the individual did not control their actions. I think there's a difference between something making an individual more prone to a certain action than making an individual unable to control their actions.
  6. Marcum was no horse though. He was always a guy with very limited talents who got the most of what he had. Kind of like a Zach Davies. I don't think the analytics these days would have loved the trade that we made for him.
  7. About five years ago Braun and Lucroy were switched and they batted out of order. Good memory. I found it now that you mentioned it. https://www.masnsports.com/nationals-pastime/2016/07/brewers-caught-batting-out-of-order.html Not a great look for Counsell to make two lineup card mistakes in 5 years.
  8. Ok,but you said earlier that free will does not apply to those with a brain disorder. So are you suggesting that we lock up people that do not in fact have control over their actions? I'm just trying to reconcile you saying that people with a brain disorder are simply at the mercy of that illness and lacking in an ability to make their own decisions, and implying in this post that you are nevertheless not excusing their actions.
  9. Brandon Woodruff and Corbin Burnes are controlled through the 2024 MLB season. Freddy Peralta, 2026.
  10. I believe the team would only be responsible if they were supplying the alcohol. Civil wise they could be sued for that as you don't have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that they knew. Definitely not criminal negligence but could sue the team for being negligent and the team would more than likely settle before it even goes to court. There are two faces of the Chiefs...Mahomes, the obvious. And Andy Reid, one of the most beloved people in the NFL. I know them paying for medical bills can possibly be viewed as an admission of guilt, but still seems like something they should be doing. That so easily could have been me...at 21 or 22. Having a few beers and driving, but after everything he's gone through, you'd think he'd have learned his lesson. He's already gone to jail for selling drugs and put a gun to the head of another motorist during a road rage incident. I am curious though...we isn't CTE used to explain away Britt Reid's actions? He played Football for a long time. Is he responsible for his actions? Very good point. Can Reid claim that brain injuries from playing football led to his actions? If we are going to remove culpability from a guy who murdered 6 people, I'd like to know where we are going to draw the line. I'm sure CTE can cause many criminal actions that aren't just limited to killing. Talk about opening Pandora's box.
  11. Did he actually say that? It wasn't enough to just leave Perdomo off the lineup card? He had to turn around and give him and Yardley the finger too? No, he said, “look it was our mistake.” He said it’s an automated system and “for whatever reason he wasn’t on the lineup given the umpires” and that it’s the Brewers fault for not double checking the lineup in the system. Ok, that definitely makes me feel better. But yeah, Counsell needs to double check the lineup card. That's little league stuff.
  12. Did he actually say that? It wasn't enough to just leave Perdomo off the lineup card? He had to turn around and give him and Yardley the finger too?
  13. I feel like this is not the first lineup card mistake by Counsell. Can't think of what in particular I'm referring to though.
  14. Any intent there? Chafin was going inside on Narvaez all AB. Nice cool anti-Contreras reaction by Narvaez.
  15. I was just going to say he reminded me of the Rookie of the Year old timer pitcher, but I couldn't think of his name.
