I wonder what he let them to do to him if he caught a relay throw and tagged out Altuve in 2017 BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Re: BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG!!!!!!!
This didn't happen.A video of Altuve was widely shared online that showed him appearing to warn his teammates not to rip off his jersey as he approached home plate and immediately running to the clubhouse to change shirts afterward.

First off, Giff is right... I just went back and watched, and while it is FUCKING WEIRD the way he behaves about his jersey, he certainly didn't make a bee line for the dugout. He was out on the field many minutes after the fact.
Still doesn't make his behavior seem normal, but not a smoking gun moment.
-=-=-=-=-=
What I find REALLY weird about all this:
Just fucking mix your signals from the first batter. If you're worried they are stealing your signs, there a TONS of pretty foolproof ways of mixing things up that make it extremely difficult to steal signs.

Re: BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG!!!!!!!
The more you mix at theoretically unnecessary times, the more room for error, either the catcher eating one or WPs with runners on 1st/3rd.

Meh. I guess.
Nats figured it out with same system they use in college baseball and softball.
If it's fucking up the collective headspace to the extent mentioned in that article, there are ways to take it off the table.
Just fix it.

It’s cool - it didn’t affect games - the Astros just did it because they are huge Stomp fanatics.

I would think to make that sting you should say Grizzlies fans are the new...Grizzlies fans.
Re: BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG!!!!!!!
I didn't want it to sting any worse than being an actual Grizzlies fan.

Giff man, you should maybe take a breath. Sit this one out champ. No one is taking the actual trophy away. But no amount of raging at Jeff passan on Twitter or at me on here is gonna make everyone forget years of cheating.
Re: BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG!!!!!!!
I'm good man, thanks. Cheaters or not, still more chips than the Yankees who couldn't even win despite their cheating. And we'll be one of the favorites this year too. I hear they're in talks with Torchy Tacos to utilize their strategic outfield location in MMP to help in 2020.

Re: BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG!!!!!!!
I don't really have a dog in the fight, but I think it's all pretty exhausting at this point. MLB isn't taking away any WS titles, the main people responsible other than the players have been disciplined and (theoretically at least) MLB is going to take steps to make sure it can't happen again.
Think we all just need to move on.
(If you could prove Crane knew about it, there might be an argument for some kind of punishment for him like a year suspension from MLB ballparks or something like they did to Marge Schott, but I haven't seen anything like that.)

Kind of surprised to see the Astros working out Tie Domi and Rob Ray this morning, what position do they play?

Tie Domi's shilling for a shitty internet company was so ubiquitous that it was even parodied on the CBC.
