Why would you opine at all about a game that you didn't watch, or listen to, or follow online? Do you have a compulsive need to comment on everything maybe? Not that I'm one to talk given how often I post lol, but even so this seems weird and unprecedented.

We can argue on matters of opinion, preferences and priorities, but not often someone says something so authoritatively that is verifiably 100% wrong.

On a related note, isn't it weird how many people live on this board and profess to actively dislike baseball? I've never understood that. I have zero interest in Professional Bull Riding, Cornhole, Pickle Ball, or Professional Lacrosse. The idea that I would collect stuff associated with those sports, but never care if I ever saw them and sort of hated them, seems kind of mind boggling to me.

I was compelled by my deep rooted need to sneer at both the New York Yankees and a recent rule change that I despise. The annoyance I felt at Rob Manfred getting his wish was also a factor:

Everything? No. Only a certain few things. Do the math. It's simple enough.

And on a matter of such earth shaking importance too! Mea culpa.
