    Apparently it's not easy to separate baseball from politics for some. Don't like someone's politics.......avoid the political threads.

    Some of that is on the Dodgers and the league. Guggenheim, Manfred, Roberts, and a the local media have insisted baseball enter politics.

    think it was in a game thread and i think Lastatman said something about how moving the all star game would actually hurt minority business in ATL
    he gave a loud response about that being false and that the city was surrounded by generic restaurants so no actual harm was being done
    its pretty typical of the shout louder and then run away thing that's going on a lot everywhere but especially on the net
    i liked his takes too as i think we all do
    wish it wasn't so hard to recognize other people might not agree w you

    So and owners and employees of "generic" establishments won't be affected, just the eclectic ones?

    There are some that legitimately suck like TGI Fridays and Applebee's. But I'm not embarrassed to say I like Chili's, Outback, Olive Garden, and plenty of other places that get shit on.

    Not that that was his point. Just sayin though.

    Even if his point was somewhat accurate what about the employees and their tips etc. Sort of hard to just poo poo the economic impact even if you believe the Jim crow lies. Not one thing racist about photo id's. Unless you think certain groups are too ignant to get them. Now that would be racist.

    Yes, it was my bad placing that post in a non-politics thread. I've reached out to ckwg privately and apologized. I don't know if he's read it. I hope he comes back at some point. I miss his perspective and unique understanding of the team and game. His write-ups always made the board better, and that goes back to the ESPN days. Bluemouse also was a positive contributor. Hopefully they'll both reconsider at some point.

    like others have said its soft if that's all it takes and i hope you didn't misinterpret my post as meaning you are responsible
    it could have been any of us and a lot of free thinking people are fed up w people not willing to hear alternative pov's only theirs
    he made a lame retort and then didn't want to back it up w facts after Rube responded so he ran away
    never seen that before

    No I didn't misinterpret your post, though thanks for saying that. Still, if I could do it over I'd put my post in the politics thread. But I agree with your overall take. One of the things that made this country great was that people with opposing viewpoints would hear the other out and often find compromise in the middle. This new attitude of "agree with me or I'll shut you out" is a slippery slope, and one that I don't like to see. Still holding out hope that this doesn't describe Col Kid, and that he's just really busy with work or family or something.

    Agree to disagree and move on. We're here because of what we have in common........a love for the Dodgers.

    Nice to read all the superlatives...even though I read similar about Lux.Not to pick on the kid, but he's no phenom. Or any of the stages before phenom. Maybe he will be solid one day. One day.
    Maybe we should try a couple of these MiL, even though it is oppo the Dodger way.
    Guys like Rios, for instance, are a complete waste of time on offense. I'd rather see a kid who can make some kind of contact, and maybe not be perfect in the field, than what Rios is doing.
    The way things are going, we may have to at least spot start one or two. This one guy an inning thing doesn't cut it at all.
    After all, people were chanting "MVP, MVP" when Seager came up AB...now, not so much.

    Our first round pick from last year continues to have a great season

    @jokeylocomotive
    Bobby Miller had 6 Ks in his 3.0 IP from today's suspended contest that will be finished up tomorrow. The rest of Miller's line - 3 hits, 1 run (unearned), 0 BBs. The fb was 96-98 t99, and he featured the changeup, striking out both a lefty and a righty with it.

    2.30 ERA with just 2.2 BB9 and 10.9 K9 on the season with only 1 HR allowed.
