  1. Keep mentioning how it was 12 years ago. That's super relevant. The dude is a fukcing child-diddler. Are people getting that part of the story? At 15 I knew touching little kids was wrong. There is no societal or developmental reason why he shouldn't have known that. So fukc this guy. Hey Blarg. Earlier you mentioned that they obtained the information illegally. What law was it that they broke? I haven't read that anywhere.
  2. Hahaha. That group is great. Makes sense that this infant-diddling mutant would have joined them.
  3. Society as a whole is affected when molesters are allowed to roam free. But that's not my point. They covered it up and didn't file a police report until a family friend found out and called CPS. I find that to be grotesque.
  4. The claim that all the backlash is because the guy is conservative is absolute nonsense. I've never heard of this guy. I've never heard of this family. I've never heard of their TV show. I believe I've heard of the FRC but I'm not sure. I certainly don't know what it stands for or what they represent. This dude molested children at an age where he knew it was wrong. I find that appalling and unacceptable. Should he lose his job, house, kids? I don't know. Should he be shamed in public? Meh. But if he didn't want people to talk about how he molested little girls 12 years ago then he should have thought about that before he molested little girls 12 years ago. The cover-up of these events is even more problematic. If it turns out to be true that the family did cover it up then I understand people's crusade to get them of the air. I personally don't care. I don't watch the show. I found out it's on TLC. I haven't watched that network in 15 years. So they can keep them on the air for all I care. And all the child molester supporters can tune in every night to watch these monsters. I guess liberals hate child molestation.
  5. I'm actually starting to think that maybe homosexuality is a threat to children. This Duggar guy seems to think so. And if anyone would know he would. Considering how many he's personally hurt. He's practically an expert on the topic.
  6. http://www.angelswin-forum.com/forums/topic/17980-mark-wahlberg-should-not-be-pardoned/?fromsearch=1 I don't know blarg. Is there?
  7. What business model do you guys suggest to replace the money currently provided by the regional sports networks?
  8. I still fail to see any merit in the fans' claim that they should have any say in how MLB operates its business.
  9. So this move saves them 0.4% of their deficit? Good job. Almost back to a balanced budget.
  10. Seen a few Jaxon's popping up. It takes an already terrible white person name and makes it even whiter.
  11. How would FSW be able to pay the Angels the $3 billion if they don't have the revenue of the entire region of cable subscribers to cover their costs? The people who subscribe to a streaming-based FSW aren't going to be able to cover the costs. And ad revenue will go down because viewership will go down. No longer would you be able to get bored and just flip to the Angels game. If you aren't really a big Angels fan you wouldn't subscribe to that service. So you'd never be able to flip to the channel. So you'd never be a viewer. So the viewer numbers will decrease for every game as the casual viewers are eliminated. So companies will pay less for ad time because they are reaching a smaller segment. So less ad money, less subscriber money. So less operating money. What happens when FSW folds? How do the Angels reproduce that money that they lose? Not with a new regional provider. They'd all be too smart at that point. So every team would have vastly less money. Which would most likely lead to owners tightening their purse strings. Which would inevitably lead to a strike or lockout. But at least you can watch every game.
  12. Didn't Josh file for the divorce? Don't let the facts stop your personal bashing, though.
  13. VHF implied that they get people to sign up by telling them they can watch their team only to have the customer find out that's not true. That implies a sort of scam. Which isn't true. It's very easy to see if you will be able to see your team. Can they really be anti-competitive to a segment of industry they don't operate? They don't run the cable providers. That's like calling Amazon anti-competitive for choosing to only use OnTrac for their shipments. Anti-consumer is their choice. Since its their business. I disagree it only hurts the sport. Unless you can show me where the money the regional networks provide is going to come from in the future. Not solely MLB.tv subscribers.
  14. I don't understand why MLB has to offer the product in the way others want them to. It's their product. As far as the argument that their claim of "70 out-of-market" games is bogus...why would they have to change their product? Wouldn't they just have to change their advertising? When a pill is marketed as having weight loss benefits despite it not having any the company is forced to change the advertising. They don't have to change the pill. I don't get it. Also, VHF said that by doing what they are doing they are showing they are more concerned with the money they get from the regional affiliates than they are with promoting the sport. I think it unwise to discount the effect the literally 10s of billions of dollars the regional affiliates are supplying when considering how the sport is being promoted. I'd say that money is pretty important for the promotion of baseball. MLB very clearly states that blackout restrictions apply and then gives possible customers a VERY easy way of finding out what teams are blacked out in their area before they have to hand over a single dollar. I don't see the scam.
  15. I never liked that logic. "You could just reword the sentence and then you wouldn't need the comma." Yeah, or I could just add a comma.
  16. At the very beginning you can see his shadow. No cable or harness.
  17. Wouldn't that be more of a Geography class? Nevermind. California education.
  18. I'm gonna delete my profile picture just to mess with Tank. On second thought, I don't want to jinx CJ.
