Big upgrade.

In related news, LV has returned to Twitter after taking a mental health break because she got buried for saying stupid shite about the team she was covering on Twitter.

Unlike other "reporters", hopefully he'll keep his social life to himself, and actually do his job even when it interferes with his personal schedule.

What did LV say?


During the Astros/Rangers ALCS, Jose Altuve hit a 9th inning home run to put the Astros ahead. Someone tweeted "It's time for people to stop hating on Altuve and just appreciate his greatness."


Leah replied to that tweet "No. I don't need to respect cheaters."


Jump forward a few weeks and she's taken a job as the Astros beat writer for the Houston newspaper which would put her in the Astros clubhouse asking questions of Jose Altuve.

She trashed Jose Altuve on Twitter, calling him a cheater and saying she no respect for him. After she was hired as the Astros beat reporter, her old tweets resurfaced and Astros fans hammered her on Twitter and she had a meltdown.

Now she’s bragging about how people read her Dylan Crews and Skenes article. It’s a sad situation.

I've followed his work at The Daily Advertiser. The baseball fans are really going to enjoy his presence on the beat. No bullshite. Tons of info to get from one source. I used to wonder how the Daily Advertiser had a better LSU beat reporter, and apparently, The Advocate management was asking the same question.

As bad as they are. I'd keep them around if it meant losing you from this board permanently. That's how terrible you are.

Koki is good & knows more than 90% of the fans. Leah knew about 5% more. So big upgrade

One more thing— I cleansed the timeline of my cry for help— but I do want people to know they aren’t alone when it comes to struggles with mental health. I like to keep things positive on here, but I think the fraction of people dealing with anxiety & depression is growing because of social media. I’ve always cared too much to a fault about everything and everyone — and I’m a work in progress. Get help if you need it. Set boundaries if you need to.

Yikes. Must have been one hell of a meltdown.

She is just too stupid to be a beat writer. She is given answers to questions during 1:1 interviews, writes about it, then openly asks the same damn question that was covered in another interview during a press conference. She would do it multiple times. Just like the stupid question on runners in scoring position stat. People on here are the same way. YOU HAVE TO BE ON BASE A LOT TO LEAVE A LOT ON. It is math.

Johnson at the CWS ended his presser mocking her dumbass.

I predict the rant will still cry about how he does not “hold the coaches accountable” and get mad when he asks a questions the rant doesn’t understand the purpose
of.
