@SimpliiFin All good we can keep it public. Got everything I need after 3 phone calls and threatening to cancel my account.

Requested documents not available online and you guys rejected giving me info on my own account! I got it now after threatening to cancel my account! Great service!

[Sean does the Baseball @SeanDoBaseball]

@SimpliiFin Hey! Don’t bank with Simplii if you are planning on taking out a mortgage or a loan. over a week to get some simple documents and they denied doing some of it and didn’t call! Closing on a house is stressful at the best of times so don’t complicate it with Simplii

@Typ_Speed Yes, pretty cool stuff. Once again just commenting on how the origins of the KBO was to instil nationalism and distract from oppression. So the fact they have a fervent nationalistic fan base is kinda unsurprising. I love the history.

[Sean does the Baseball @SeanDoBaseball]

Yes Korean baseball fans rule, but how did the Korean baseball fans become so nationalistic Jon?

Was it forcibly baked-in by a US backed military junta leader who needed a nationalistic pastime to placate the population while he suppressed (murdered) the democracy movement?

[Jon Morosi @jonmorosi]

Korean baseball fans are some of the most supportive I’ve seen — in any sport, anywhere in the world.

Before national team games, they bring KBO club jerseys and display them together in the cheering section.

@Typ_Speed Well aware of this, his plan backfired greatly

[Keegan Matheson @KeeganMatheson]

#BlueJays announce that David Bell is their new VP of Baseball Ops and Assistant GM.

Here’s how the club explains his role:

[Sean does the Baseball @SeanDoBaseball]

@Typ_Speed Yes this comment was about the origins and how unsurprising it is that fans are extremely nationalistic

[Sean does the Baseball @SeanDoBaseball]

@Typ_Speed He was not a baseball junkie, Chun Doo-hwan was a murderer who needed to distract from the Gwangju massacre and met with owners of teams to stipulate how fans should cheer.

Korean fans rule but the nationalism was structured from the start

So this may be the dumbest/funniest moment in the history of our show.

New episode out tomorrow honouring a Canadian WW2 Veteran and Phillies Pitcher

@Samadeus @JesseBrown This is slanderous. Just wild how he paints former guests like this. @CANADALAND it’s stuff like this that made me unsubscribe. In no way did one statement contradict the other but he is painting you as antisemitic

[Kim Kelly @GrimKim]

I could write a 5,000 word essay about this but suffice it to say, dude is not wrong at all!

[Sean and Eds Do Baseball @DoingBaseball]

Remembrance Day tomorrow. Hank Thompson was many things in his life including a WW2 vet & a trailblazing black baseball player. His life was not perfect but he served his country dutifully and fought courageously in the battle of the bulge. Thanks Hank!

@JesseBrown I’m going go with the Dutch reporting instead of Post media, thanks

I don’t think an American has ever America’d any harder than suggesting imposing an American constitutional amendment upon other countries at the threat of removing them from military industrial complex

Bernie Sanders: “It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.”

@Mentoch It’s like they don’t understand that Trump was a reaction to Bush/Cheney lying the country into war and then destroying then economy?

Ross Atkins on the #BlueJays adding a catcher (via our @MLBastian):

“Not a priority for us. If we were, in an ideal world, it would be a left-handed hitting, polished receiver. Those guys are either locked up or valuable to other teams. We feel good about the options we have.”
