@Patriot_Bebs81@DanClarkSports I watched this team make the World Series 4 out of 6 years and the ALCS 7 years straight. They didn’t cheat their way into that. The irony coming from an organization that just buys the best players every year bc they have an unfair TV contract that no other team has.
@agr_dodgers22@beanball112133 I have a brain. The Dodgers batted .205 in the 2017 World Series with a .683 OPS. Was that the trash cans? Or just trash?
@Patriot_Bebs81@DanClarkSports Aww poor Dodgers baby still upset about the 2017 World Series. Speaking of the Mendoza line…isn’t that what the Dodgers hit during that World Series??
Oil and gas production has delivered only middling financial returns for decades, largely because of the boom/bust nature of energy markets. If you want to penalize companies during high prices, you also have to cushion the lows, else there will be structural underinvestment.
People keep crying “trans are only 0.01% of the population, why are you attacking them?”
Because you shoved that 0.01% down our fucking throats for four solid years. Every commercial. Every classroom. Every HR training. Every institution. Celebrate it or be called a bigot.
We’re done.
We’re done playing along while you try to normalize a mental illness. And we’re done watching activists groom and sterilize kids under the banner of “inclusion.”
Fuck that. Not sorry.
This is going to sound crazy.
But, one of the skills you must learn in the near future is how to cope with an increasingly illiterate society of emotionally dysregulated people.
If you continue to get frustrated on a daily basis over how everything seems dumb, stress is going to silently jeopardize your health.
For the socialists dreaming of the Scandinavian model, that means *cutting* taxes on the rich in half.
While hiking them *3 times* on everybody else until they pay half their salary 🙌
The Dodgers aren’t special, they aren’t “the best run organization in baseball” They have a special deal from MLB that enables them to financially cheat and spend nearly twice what any other team could
All of the breathless complimenting of the Dodgers completely ignores that the Dodgers are only able to spend like this because MLB gave them a special TV carveout after the McCourt Bankruptcy
They are the only 1 of 30 MLB teams that doesn’t have to fully share their TV revenue
They also happen to have the largest local TV contract
This is the only reason they can spend like they do
MLB created this entire situation and sees an opportunity to use it to finally try to get a cap
We don’t need a cap, all MLB needs to do is revoke this settlement and nationalize all TV Rights. Just stop giving the Dodgers the ability to cheat
Any team can be great when you have enough to spend that you can burn $110M/yr in salary and luxury tax on Kyle Tucker while he has the worst season of his career and not feel it.
They have Snell, Glasnow and half of their most expensive pitchers injured now for more of the season than they’ve been healthy and haven’t even noticed
This is all because MLB gave them a special deal on their TV rights no other team gets
Not Because Dave Roberts and Andrew Friedman are geniuses
