Jeez. He just achieved a stratospheric milestone. Why the contentious thread?

So where’s the link? Why can’t anyone identify where this happened? Surely this isn’t made up political bullshit hijacking a great performance to twist into their agenda, so it should be simple to show.

You support these race baiting/politic bating type of posts?

Ohtani is having a historic season and is great for baseball, as a Giants fan I'm a little bitter he's a Dodger but that's baseball and he should be celebrated for his accomplishments.

OP's weak attempt at a gotcha/outrage post is what should be called out here no matter what your politics are, shouldn't be room for it on this sub.

Someone seems to be super angry at the world these days. More than someone just pissing in his Cheerios too.

Agreed. It's gratuitous.

I mean, if the claim is true, the post is fine. If people really did say such things, it's fair to throw the truth and Ohtani's wonderful season in their face a bit.

I eagerly away our leftist race pushers providing the receipts, as this is such an easy thing to prove on a forum with a public transcript and working search feature. Any minute now they will show it did actually happen and that this is a fair and honest account. I'm sure. They wouldn't make shit up like disgusting liars.

I find it fascinating that white liberal elites have the same attitude towards the GOP candidate that Southern whites had towards Martin Luther King. The parties have definitely switched IMHO.

Didn't you just advocate leaving this stuff off the forum? Why go there? And what does it have to do with Ohtani?

That post is not "sharing my politics". It's a joke about how these days anything someone doesn't like can be called "woke". If it's not funny to you, that's fine but don't call it something it's not. You just seem to be angry and worked up all the time about nothing

I'm really trying to stay out of this thread...and topics like this in general....but......C'mon Man! That's a pretty hilarious take. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and chalk it up as an ironic post and move on with my life now.

Thanks for the chuckle.

I have searched for these despicable comments made by a couple of uneducated science denying hayseed rube hick members to no avail, maybe someone else can find them and get them banned as they justly deserve.

A shame, I am excited to join them in condemning these white supremacists that nobody seems to be able to find for me to condemn.

This would be a really stupid thing to lie about, considering that everything said here is on a transcript record. I know our justice advocates really, really, really want there to be lots and lots of racism for them to virtue signal over and speak on behalf of all the non-white races, but surely they wouldn't just completely and transparently lie about it. It has to be here somewhere! Multiple board members said this, they say. It has to be true. There political agenda can not be such a crock of shit that they have to resort to lies to shove it into the board this week.

I get sick of these type posts. Left, Right, Up, Down; who cares! Talk baseball and baseball cards. That's what we all have in common and enjoy doing!

Honestly I have been one of the fanboys since he was in Japan and was over the moon about him coming to MLB. Disappointed he wasn’t on my team, but definitely bought his cards.

I remember numerous discussions about the difficulty he would have facing injuries as a dual player, discussion about how his career may never recover after each injury and the normal overpaid for a dh yammering. All the normal pessimism I would expect in a thread basically about any player (except Judge, who is Jeter 2.0 on the he can do no wrong scale, lol).

However, I never once ever, even as the Ohtani defender…remember someone stating he was overhyped based on his race or “wokeness”. That’s new to me too. I’d like to see that thread as well.

I have been so happy to see quite literally my favorite current player do something that no one in history has done prior. It’s a shame to have it flipped into something to distract from that.

At 52/52 with 8 games left, he has an outside shot at 55/55. Ans since we need a card, I believe this is his first ever issue.
