Freddie didn't sound good on the phone so Nick is packing it in. Seems like a great reason. I guess if Nick had ever talked to Freddie in the past when he had a cold or an upset stomach he probably would have sat out that season too.
I read on another board that Chipper said somewhere that "more Braves are likely to follow."

I about don't care any longer. Let 'em all sit out.
On another note: Joey Gallo tested positive, then they retested him and he tested negative... now they have tested again and this time he's positive.
Nobody involved in this knows what the hell they are talking about, or what is actually going on.

You gotta remember that these guys aren't very educated people to begin with, so they're easier to scare than a lot of guys their age. They probably get their news from CNN and the other propaganda machines. They make a lot of money, but they're not wise, worldly people by any means. I'm not saying they're stupid, but they've lived a fantasy life that revolves around playing a kid's game, so they don't understand the world particularly well. Plus, they consider themselves to be "woke", which is the exact demographic that the media preys on.

If we end up pandering to a “Canadian Lives Matter” group of oppressed crybaby victims I’m gonna lose it.

It would be different if it weren't based on a false premise, but like I mentioned earlier, pro athletes as a whole have about the same level of education as a service employee, so they just jump on the bandwagon with the rest of the uninformed "woke" crowd (nothing wrong with being a service employee, BTW).

I get that, the same can be said for Hollywood actors and the like but these ball players are still supporting an anti-American terrorist organisation who's actions aren't exactly secretive. They have attacked 1000's of innocent people, burned down cities and churches, looted, raped, robbed and even murdered small children. They are Marxists with their only goal being to end all Western culture so anyone still watching any pro sports, Hollywood or TV are just paying for their own demise.

For the love of all that's decent please my good friend, let's start making a move to keep all of this out of the baseball forum!

Hollywood actors and other entertainers are more overpaid than pro athletes could ever hope to be. People britch about athletes salaries but no one really points out these overpaid performers in the Entertainment Industrial Complex. Just a thought. Given the accountability athletes face day to day, their pay is a good deal for owners compared to these no talent actors and pop singers of the day

Baseball? Talk is all baseball is. This 60 game charade isn't baseball. Baseball is dead. Come on, try to play along! I'm trying desperately to hang onto this game I've loved for almost 60 years and it's not easy! At this point I'm just tricking myself, and sneaking something by me isn't easy! Once I turn on myself, look out self, it's going to be ugly!

Once I turn on myself, look out self, it's going to be ugly! Yeah I understand that, I do and it wasn't my intent to be another negative voice in the world. So I am sorry about that. I've had this problem for quite some years now and as the world gets crazier by the day I find myself not interested in it. It's also one of the biggest downsides to all of this as it leaves me very little to talk about ..the one thing about movies, pop culture, sports is that it does bring humans together (or did) and gives us something to talk about. It's why I haven't posted all that much lately too. I genuinely love talking to you guys but find I have literally nothing to say. But I do hope you are all doing well, can find ways to get away from the insanity and maybe someday I'll find a way to revive the Ping Ting tread, tie it into Baron's time travel or something.

We're still talking about all that stuff but we agreed the other day in the coronavirus tread to try to get it all out of the baseball forum. We just need to go back to the political forum where we've done it all before. The rest of what you said, I totally get. I'm going to completely ignore politics again after this election is over. We've had a few comments from some good baseball people here asking if we can keep the politics out of the baseball area, that's all I was saying. We can take up Ping Ting and Baron's and the Reanimator in the old usual places. We should focus more on comedy, things that make us laugh. It would be better for all of us!

I think what frustrates me most is that so many people whom I always thought had good sense can't see what's actually happening. They can't see that Trump truly is the "last man standing". They can't see that the news from the mainstream media is actually propaganda. They can't see that the political establishment is circling the wagons against us when they accuse Trump of whatever made up BS they can come up with. I could go on but you get my point. It's not the stupid, indoctrinated kids that worry me so much. They can't help it. It's the people who should know better that bother me. It's sad is what it is.

I agree and it’s friends and even family that I respect, but it’s hard to hear them talk about these things and be so clueless and willing to accept everything the MSM feeds them. And it’s soooooooo obvious.
