@FreedomAmerica @GuntherEagleman@LeaderJohnThune Fun fact: Benedict Arnold is one of the greatest U.S. soldiers of all time before he turned. He was an old-time Rambo/Solid Snake, but not fictionary.
Unfortunately, following his military accolades, he was a traitor.
You may want to cheer for him based on what he did in the past while getting paid $30+ million and not being able to hit the fastball anymore. That's loyalty, but it's not going to result in us winning ball games. Actually, it will result in us losing ballgames because the resources could have been spent better elsewhere. I believe Steans and Cohen know this. You don't need to be a rocket scientist to realize. Historically, players like Alonso start to decline at this time.
Again, I love Alonso, but if I'm Stearns and Cohen, I'm not giving him $200+ million most of which will be paid in his declining years.
Alonso and Boras want $200+ million... maybe the Yankees will make that mistake.
@coffee6666@SNYtv Go to 1.04 in the video. Pause and replay from 1.04, again and again.
I'm very confident that your opinion will change.
It wouldn't have even been close.
Absolute garbage. It was close, but the ball clearly TOUCHED the line (and then some) before he started letting it go, which is all that is needed for a TD.
This pro football and there shouldn't be refs itching to not call it a touchdown because he was cocky. Just get it right.
On the other side, the runner has to be smarter and not give the refs a chance to say it wasn't a TD.
I love that game too, but if we're talking about battle system, the game you present is like checkers (and there's nothing wrong with that) and Nioh 2 is like chess... and then some from a a complexity standpoint.
I understand that the complexity of Nioh 2 isn't for everyone (and again, there's nothing wrong with that).
The start point and the end point are accurate; however, you leave out that prior to 4-NOV, he told Yankee leadership that he was going to opt out, in an effort to get some extra years/money from them. THEN, when the Yankees told him to go pound sand, Cole changed course and officially opted in.
I believe there is a possibility Cole did this (told the Yankees he's opting out, then changed course when they said they weren't going to give him anything extra) because he knew if another team were to make him a new contract offer, they would surely examine him and discover that there are serious concerns with his arm. In that case, Cole would get NOTHING and he'd be left holding the bag in the final years of his career. By staying with the Yankees, they are obligated to pay him the remainder of what's owed on his contract, regardless as to the status of his arm.
@NYMhistory How in the world can they post an Ordonez highlight real and not show his signature jumping, catching, sliding in the hole with his back to 1st base, then making a strong throw to 1st...?
