Apparently she wants to stay anonymous.
It's so weird someone that age would act that way. If he played it cool he probably would have had a good shot at getting with her.

Some hall of fame voters are asking for their ballots back to take Schilling off after he supported the Capitol insurrection. HOF appears to be leaning towards votes being final once you turn it in.
How that was the final straw for voters taking character into account, who knows. If anything, it was the only logical conclusion.

MASN is dumping both their Nats and O's broadcast teams.
The network also said it will no longer be providing pregame and postgame coverage, and that if the teams want to continue it, they will have to pay for equipment, staff, etc. The interesting thing is, MASN is owned entirely by the O's (73%) and Nats (27%), so they were essentially already paying for it. But, that whole arrangement has been a sticky situation. The Nats have been in revenue sharing and rights fee fights since they moved to Washington, and actually have an ongoing lawsuit with MASN, so they're sort of suing themselves at the moment (but mostly the O's).

You're the only person I know who doesn't like Gary Thorne.

That's not the worst of it. I didn't like Dave Niehaus. I believe that's a capital crime in the PNW.
I hate homer announcers. I know you hafta do it in the Springfield vs Shelbyville podunk markets, but, guh. Give you audience some effing credit.

HOF vote results is today. Its possible no one gets in. But a few PEDs might make it. Bonds, Clemens.

And nobody gets in. I can see waiting until the last chance for Bonds, but for Clemens? Some of his best years were early. Crazy.

Schilling missed it by 16 votes. Next year is the last year for Schilling, Clemens, Bonds, and Sosa.
Schilling is probably the only one of that group with a chance next year.

Hopefully they all get in. I’m sure there were a lot bigger scumbags from back in the day.

Well, now Schilling says he doesn't even want to be on the ballot next year and is asking to be taken off next year's ballot so he can be inducted by the Veterans Committee.

I've done a 180 on the steroid guys. Used to think no way but after a few years of this I realized how arbitrary that was. First of all, we have no idea the extent of it. My suspicion is it was so rampant that I believe nearly every player tried something, and until there was testing and real consequences, I bet virtually every superstar was juicing. If no one was juicing the same guys would still have been the top players. I also think it is naive to think that players in other eras did not try things that were either dangerous or against the rules to find an edge. Finally, Tony Larussa is in the Hall of Fame and his career was clearly aided by people everyone believes to have used steroids or they outright admitted it. If his wins are not tainted then the homeruns hit by guys who did steroids can't be looked at that way.

F-ck em all. And the owners and the media, who all knew all the way through.

Blech...Rockies trade Nolan Arenado to Cardinals. Arenado is one of the, if the the, best overall third basemen in the history of the game. As someone who goes to a handful of Rockies games in the typical year, this is disappointing news.

Already insane, UAA making it worse
I look at it the same way as cycling's Tour de France or the Olympics in practically everything until like 2000: Everyone was cheating, who gives a s- if the guy won was cheating.
