Where is the freakin MLB playoffs thread?

The one thing that bothers me a little about the win is that the asian eyes dude didn't get suspended effective immediately.

I read the apology and I think it was real despite the modern cliche way of 'to anyone who I may have offended' it was worded. I saw the tip of the hat and it looked like there was a real look in his eyes.

But here's the thing, it shows how pervasive racism is. I think that Chappelle said it (among others) - "we're all racist". I would never do that Asian eye thing... but I remember that "it was nothing in the 70s". That shows how deeply a lot of that stuff ran and does run until learning about it shows one that it is not something that is acceptable. It is still very complex and I think that it's probably a lot worse in every non 'first world' country.

Puig balances that out. One flaming asshole per team. It's all good.
 
Oh yeah...I am high up on the dislike Puig list. And everything that he does he has to make into a major thing. Even the fly out... slam the bat as if everyone is watching you - not because you are in the World Series but just because you are you.
 
He really needs to ease up a couple notches, or he's gonna have a stroke before he's 40.

I would agree if I thought that it was real but I really think that he just makes a big deal out of everything because he thinks that it is all about him.

Now you understand why Bumgarner wants to kick his ass sooooooo badly. He hits a dinger, flips his bat and prances around the bases like 'my little pony':mad:

Batflips are ridiculous. As a Blue Jays fan and a 'never too crazy about Bautista' Blue Jays fan, the amount of headshake that I have done on a regular basis and will do for ages because Jays fans are always talking about the Bautista batflip... there was even a piece on one of the sports channels about "where were you when he did the batflip" and they were talking about it like it was the time that they won back to back in the early 90s.

People saying that they have a poster of it at home and sh!! like that.

It is ridiculous.
#1 have some class
#2 be a pro
#3 you are an example whether you want to be or not
#4 if you are going to do sh!! like that then you had better be talented enough to carry your team all the way to the top. All the way. No excuses. No 'the team just needs...' Do it yourself if you are going to do sh!! like that.

It's f'n bush.
 
The batflip is old.
I do like how Cargo just watches the ball goes out and drops the bat.
