@mikeyshaps@infieldflygrl Not exactly like this. Pay attention to celebrations. Go back and look at others if you so please. More often than not you see guys smacking each other around, chasing each other around, etc. You rarely see the bear hug of someone who's shaped like a pencil with their arms down.
My amazing GF-who happens to be a public school teacher-came to me and said that there is a child in her school who’s backpack is beaten to shreds &most likely the family is struggling. Bottom line, she went out and bought him a new backpack on her own dime. Be good, people! ❤️
@MaxMcCoig10 Who celebrates like this in spring training? You're also completely missing the point. It's lacking the awareness that celebrating like that comes with a higher risk of injury. Not where geographically or in what level of competition it happens.
It could be a spelling bee.
@JoceyTor@TeddyKarabatsos@SugarDiaz39 Is it unfair of me to say the man has more important things to think about as the global financial system is going through a meltdown like we did 15 years ago?
@MaxMcCoig10@mrclams18 Jumping on home plate by yourself and breaking an ankle is a fluke.
Getting beat hugged by a 250 lb man with your arms straight down and then him jumping up and down around the mound is completely avoidable.
@james_fitz_56@MainwayLeft@SubwayToShea Calling it an exhibition game is the dumbest thing you could say. There's national pride on the line for a tournament that's played every 3 years and comes with a trophy that teams will parade through the streets of their homeland.
Go back under your rock.
You can piss and moan about the WBC and who should or shouldn't be there until the cows come home. He was there, and it happened. Nothing's gonna change it and nothing will fix it.
Next man up. There's an entire season to play. And anything can happen.
@JoceyTor I don't mean MLB. I mean the team. They are the ones paying the man. It's the same when playing basketball. That's not an MLB stipulation, that's a team stipulation.
@TeddyKarabatsos@SugarDiaz39 Bro 4 banks got liquidated in the last week. Sorry to break your little heart but he's not focused on this.
He's focused on keeping his firm solvent.
Have a great day.
@JoceyTor It's not up for debate if you engage in any other sports activity and you get hurt. Basketball in the driveway? You lose money. It's an MLB tournament which makes it more complicated but still.
