Kevlar v2.0 posted:Or maybe it's like Turner Field and all the black people living in the neighborhood scared the Best Fans in Baseball away. I don't disagree that racism played a huge part in driving the Braves out to Cobb County, but, ye gods, getting to and from Turner was a goddamn nightmare. You had to drive (or walk) to MARTA, take a train to Underground Atlanta, walk through Underground Atlanta, then take a bus to the stadium. Doing this to get to the stadium wasn't a huge pain, but leaving the stadium was annoying as hell.

Doing this to get to the stadium wasn't a huge pain, but leaving the stadium was annoying as hell. The reason there was no train to Turner field/Fulton County Stadium was racism. The original MARTA engineers routed around those neighborhoods for fear that demand at peak operating times would be too high for the trains to handle in poor black inner city neighborhoods  Also, it wasn't just the fact that a stadium was being built in Cobb County that pissed people off. It was that the whole deal was pre-negotiated with no public input and the commissioners pushing it through stuffed public meetings with staffers so that nobody against the funding could speak out. I hope that loving Battery ends up as empty as I hear it has become. The new stuff Georgia State built where Turner field was seems to be pretty cool. They even preserved the spot where 715 landed. tadashi fucked around with this message at 21:03 on Apr 17, 2024 |

Forrest on Fire posted:V: I think Ketel Marte would be the best lay, personally I swear there's a video about Ketel Marte on YouTube in the style of Cribs where he shows the cameraman around his house. When they get to his shoes, he shows the camera that the nickname "Smash" is printed on the back of his shoes because, as he assures the camera, "Everyone knows my nickname is Smash". I have yet to ever hear anyone in the media or around MLB refer to him has Smash. I can't find this video rn but I know I saw it sometime after the first season he spent in Arizona.

bawfuls posted:lol and also, lmao Bad news for Bill DeWitt III is that due to insanely stupid decisions made a long time ago, the only people able to vote for this are not going to be the idiotic suburban or exurban fans, but people who actually live in the city, the people who elected Cori Bush. Do not see them wanting to line the pockets of an ownership group that refuses to invest in the team despite continually promising too. Also, the ST LOUIS RACIST stuff doesn't apply here since basically nobody lives downtown and if they do they're like that scared freak in the article who compares it to staying at a resort in Mexico

Far be it for me to defend mcmagic, but: It's true, Yankees fans are the only people who dislike the Astros and want them to lose.

I hate the Astros but I’m so over the poo poo talking back and forth. And it’s the same poo poo talking I’ve gotten from most fans forever. It’s exhausting.

And some of the posters here white knighting the Astros are the biggest “gently caress the Yankees” posters for years and years. It’s all the same poo poo but everyone thinks their poo poo don’t stink.
