So basically you're saying it's okay until you get caught.

Competitive advantage


yes...stealing information will give you a competitive advantage. But it's not the same as stealing signs. Using a shite load of steroids will give you a competitive advantage, are you going to make an argument that it's akin to stealing signs?

Nope sure am not. But I do recognize cheating happens and have actively cheated when I worked in college athletics.

What kind of punishment could the Cardinals be facing, in terms of MLB sanctions?

Absolutely. You guys are pretentious dicks who talk about the 'cardinal way' and we find that means stealing from the astros.

It's also midday on a tuesday. we're not exactly talking about a lot of shite going on right now.

whats the point of getting into it in the first place if you're not going to look at the information it contains?

I'm not saying they pulled out a usb and started downloading.

Head in the sand.

Not a terrible approach. It has proven successful in the past.

You're probably right.. The cardinals never do anything wrong and no cardinal ever has been implicated in any bad behavior whatsoever.. They'll get off scott free

also...from the article

quote:

WASHINGTON — The F.B.I. and Justice Department prosecutors are investigating whether front-office officials for the St. Louis Cardinals, one of the most successful teams in baseball over the past two decades, hacked into internal networks of a rival team to steal closely guarded information about player personnel.


Now, as an auburn fan, I can give you some advice on this...the thing you focus on there is 'investigating whether.' And you hammer that point home any chance you get. I'd also recommend usage of the cam gif of 'that's an ongoing investigation"
