Second Base 7,346 Posted Tuesday at 02:21 PM Signing Addison Russell at this point would be the equivalent of an NFL team signing Colin Kaepernick. Way too many off the field issues. He's a distraction more than he's an asset. Subtraction by addition. No thanks. 1 1 1 ukyah, SoWhat and Taylor reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not even even in the same league. That being said, there would be about a week if distraction for signing Russell and then no one would mention it again. It's still not the right thing to do. 6 SoWhat, Taylor, ettin and 3 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where the F do you make that crap up? Nobody said their crimes were there same thing. Signing them would create the same distraction. Scarecrow much?

floplag 2,818 Posted Tuesday at 04:30 PM Why are people obsession over the one position we actually have depth at? Russel, Hernandez, etc... The only way we talk to any of them is if we trade from that depth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know, the ones where I clarify why not. The ones where I make literally zero mention of wife beating and race-baiting being the same thing.

"We shouldn't hire criminals like my friend from college or Bernie Madoff." My friend from college got a drunk in public. Bernie Madoff committed a billion dollar fraud. You can't see how describing the two as "criminals" and not pointing out that their actions are very different leads to people equating the actions of the two?
