That went right over your head, and it was so simple.. As simple as black or white and you thought it was about race.
You are as dumb as people on the PT board claim. I never knew that.

Careful, you’re living up to the “liberal” stereotype.

I'm struggling with understanding, if this "cheating" was so bad and so rampant, why are the only two people suspended, those who were arguably the furthest away from it?


Those two can be suspended without inviting a fight with the Player’s Union.

Thanks for giving up on Berkman. That .423 average in the World Series was quite useful.

If what the Astros did is as bad as MLB believes it is, I think they got off easy, particularly Crane individually.
But I don’t believe what they did is as bad as MLB believes it is.

It isn't but there is enough outrage that they felt they needed to address it in such a way that would make everyone feel it is important. But since everyone has always tried to steal signs and these guys upped the ante so to speak after they were told not to...that is the larger issue. They were told to stop and they didn't. Also, it is funny that there is an acceptable way to try and cheat and this wasn't one of them. But that is baseball.

MLB should force Crane to sell, much like they did to Marge Schott.

Maybe the new owner will have a set of balls and tell MLB to frick off and not fire the best GM we've ever had.

Astros are a cheater organization.

Only way they could win anything was steal Cardinals proprietary scouting technology/information and and steal signs.

Back to the bottom of the MLB barrel where they belong.

What is it about Missouri fans being the dumbest kids in class? Almost every one of you is eaten up with a case of the dumb arse. Must be that education mixed with Cardinal arrogance.

Baseball is a shite show. PEDs, Cardinals hacking into computers for scouting, corking bats, stealing signs and I’m sure I’m missing a bunch

I felt like the cubs were victims of this a few times in the past year.

There would be times where the opposing team would be on every pitch that came there way. Didn't happen often, but it was noticeable when it did.
