Bruce Hornsby, but I wanted to put you on the main stage so I took liberties....

Actually, Don Henley

Can you imagine if the Angels were caught amidst the sign stealing scandal too? That'd be so embarrassing because we still found a way to lose lmao

"So Mr. Moreno, your team cheated?"

"Yes, Mr. Commisioner."

"Why didn't you make the playoffs?"

"Because we weren't very good at it."

I doubt very highly those are the only two teams doing it. 

You might be right, but it seems like a bit more than a coincidence that these two teams were both at the top of the sport in these seasons they were caught cheating.

End of the innocence right?..   I always get that wrong.  I always pin Glenn Frey songs on Henley too.  It's a mental block.  The word nostalgia used to give me fits too...

I was waiting for it, the 'everyone does it' post.

I actually thought everyone drives over 55 would be the example used.

I was wondering how long it would take before that magnificent butt wound up as someone's profile photo. Congratulations, sir.

People blame other things when they lose. And people want to tear up the person who just won. Patriots win all the time and how many scandals have they been in. You don’t hear a lot about other teams in the nfl because not because no one else is doing the same shit. It’s cause it’s easier to go after the person who just won. Btw I’m a Bills fan so fuck the Patriots. But ya.

Just can’t see how Manfred doesn’t take the Red Sox cheating personally and come down hard on them.

Roses are red

Violets are blue

The Astros are toast

Alex Cora is, too

 

I'll show myself out.

Hornsby was on piano and co wrote but it is ultimately a Henley song since it the name of his album. Henley won best male video back when MTV was relevant. I really like this song but no where near as much as Boys of Summer which references the Grateful Dead and never live in the past.

But most important to remember, fuck the Red Sox.

I have a hard time feeling like the Astros, Red Sox and Patriots are just victims here.

I didn’t say they’re victims. I’m just saying it’s easier to blame them. I think the majority of the league was doing steroids. I think the majority of the league if there was an actual investigation is probably doing something in regards to sign stealing. I don’t think it was 2 teams. These ball clubs are too competitive and there is too much money involved. It’s silly to think that.

I feel like it could be anywhere from 20% of the league to 2/3. I don’t think it’s just these two and I don’t think it’s everyone. Just my opinion.
