  1. Indeed, he was, and rightfully so. I imagine that’s only a tiny fraction of the amount of BS Ng has dealt with in her career. https://www.espn.com/mlb/news/story?id=1665046
  2. Also, this happened while she was working for the Dodgers: https://www.espn.com/mlb/news/story?id=1662212 So, yeah, her hiring as GM is a big deal.
  3. I'm happy to hear she will get the chance after being an assistant with other organizations. There weren't a lot of these jobs open this offseason. I'm glad she got one of them. I think it remains to be seen how good the MIA job is, though. Will it be a situation where they can keep their homegrown talent (Stanton, Yelich), or will they still sell off players like that because of cost?
  4. I share this sentiment, and would have even absent the DUI arrest, but I feel like the team should have let him go after this.
  5. I think we should officially change "Hall of Famer" to "Hall of Famer Baseball Person."
  6. I think that would be a pretty solid way to go. There are many ways to build a club. We need pitching, but if the market for that pitching doesn't materialize, then they have to be open to other avenues.
  7. This Twitter account has been translating Trump's tweets into more "presidential" language. Used to be called "PresidentialTrump."
  8. Not to mention they had another executive supplying opioids to a player who died of an overdose.
  9. It will be the theme of his speech announcing his candidacy for the 2024 election.
  10. Now that you describe it like that, it's kind of like politics.
  11. I have a legal question here. I know @calscufis a lawyer. I seem to remember that you are as well. Why wait to file this lawsuit? If the firing was indeed wrongful, wouldn't it be better to file that suit right away? Perhaps something in the termination agreement that the Astros and MLB didn't live up to?
  12. This is America, sir. We don't eat it that way. I suppose we're like that about everything, aren't we?
  13. I will give Trump credit for wanting to get rid of Tik Tok.
  14. In the aggregate, that's a good thing. It means more people are voting. No one is saying Biden is the best candidate in history (at least no one here, anyway), but enough people were engaged enough to get out and vote. More people voting is a good thing for any functioning democracy.
  15. I am genuinely curious to see what a lame duck Trump will do.
  16. Trump's lead in GA is down to about 2500 votes with about 20,000 more to be counted. As @mymerlincatnoted, the AZ race continues to tighten up with there still being about 275,000 votes yet to count. PA is now at about 50,000 to Trump with large numbers of mail-in and provisional ballots still to count.
  17. Of that I have no doubt. Someone was speculating here that Don Jr. would run in '24, but I think 45 runs again. His ego just won't be able to sit it out.
  18. Kelly Loeffler ran her campaign on how Trump-y she is. Her banners and signs even resemble the Trump-Pence ones. With GA possibly going to Biden, that may not have been the best strategy.
  19. Biden would need about 65% of those outstanding votes in order to overtake Trump's lead in GA.
  20. Some NV updated numbers. Washoe is northern NV, where Reno is located. It tends to lean blue. Clark County (Southern NV/Las Vegas) is still to be completed.
  21. With Biden's lead in NV widening, the decisions by the AP and FOX to call AZ for Biden so early give them a tough choice to make.
  22. It's why Lou has done so well during Trump's term in office.
