@cenkuygur The US is Israel's colony. US tax dollars go to Israel. US fights wars for Israel. US citizens and especially officials cannot criticize Israel
@AndyHazelton Not sure if it was a factor for north hemisphere tropical cyclones, 1991 also had the Mt Pinatubo that caused a dimming and cooling event so I suppose the 1991 El Niño may not be a great data point for comparison.n
@BBGreatMoments Sadaharu Oh deserves at least an honorable mention.
For those who never heard of him, he hit 868 home runs in Japan's professional league as well as 9 consecutive Gold Gloves at 1st base.
There was no pathway for NPB players to come to the MLB in his time.
@djenders@AgentRachelLuba@BauerOutage Look at the attendance, especially in away games when he pitches.
That "PR nightmare" is selling tickets and that is the most important take away.
@XNomorecommiesx@LIDucks@BauerOutage He was never charged.
Guilty by public opinion and no apologies from the media nor MLB when his accusers got exposed for being gold diggers who were after his money.
@andyshifflette@LIDucks@BauerOutage@Reds He is being blackballed.
After named the pitcher of the year in Mexico in '24 he should have been back.
Sure he had an off year in Japan which his haters focus on.
His performance this season tells us he is not washed.
The Atlantic League is strong, easily AA+ talent.
@DJVike77@OleTimeHardball Absolutely. Best catcher of all time.
Segregation cost us seeing Gibson in the MLB.
Also the one to have an X-files episode dedicated to him.
@lifewithbraves @BauerOutage Fucking figures.
I challenge this guy to put his money where his mouth is after calling me a "low IQ" person.
After saying he would take the challenge/wager, he deletes his account.
Still have yet to have some follow through with the wager I proposed to him.
@lifewithbraves @BauerOutage The fact you think sports ball opinions is an IQ indicator tells me all I need to know.
Is $10k too small of a wager to get you interested in putting your money where your mouth is?
@lifewithbraves @BauerOutage For that to work, we would have to take a proctored test in the same location, no online test bullshit.
No phones, just an old school style test so no cheating.
@lifewithbraves @AtticusHonor@BauerOutage I log on this stupid X maybe once a month..made a few posts about Bauer then your dumbass would not shut the fuck up?
$20k?
@lifewithbraves @BauerOutage I will bet you my IQ is higher than yours.
Let's both take a proctored IQ test and place a hefty wager.
Put your money where your mouth is.
I am 100% serious.
@lifewithbraves @BauerOutage Let's see where he is in a month.
Last year he was fighting injuries and illness. Good players bounce back after a bad season.
If his ERA, Ks/9 and WHIP keeps up, he deserves a chance to comeback.
