Rogers is Canada cell phone service right? I see screenshots and I'm like wtf is this

Apparently Edward Rogers (son of deceased former owner of the blue jays Ted Rogers) is behind this.

**** MY LIFE.

Ted Rogers didn't even like baseball when he was alive, WTF is his son doing meddling in things?

I wouldn't give up a real prospect for BILLY GOD DANM BEANE. But were gunna do it for Dan Duquette??!


I hate everything and everyone.

Join us in Chicago fam. Come watch Theo be great. We got a thread and everything.

I still don't understand how the Mets didn't do the math, and said "Something doesn't seem right here."


But being the Mets is a significant enough explanation for me

Bobby Bonilla living that good life over in Greenwich, CT.

So Wilpon is paying Bonilla $30M instead of $6M, supposedly lost millions by dealing with Bernie Madoff, which led to him having to ask MLB for a loan. But yet MLB just named him chairman of MLB finance committee.

I'm surprised this is the first a lot of you are hearing about the Bonilla deferred contract.

^ Most knew (at least I did) but it still mystifies me every single time I read it.

What image captures the saddest moment in baseball for you?

I have a quarter century of history I can look through, so it'll take me a minute to find a good one.

Pat Neshek pitching less than 24 hours after his infant son passed. Losing the 2012 ALDS will never leave me.

Make it stop.

I'm meeting Neshek tomorrow.

I'm a Cubs fan, not enough room on this Internet for me to post pics.

My entire teams existence is sad Here are a few though

Most Yankee fans I know would say 2004 because of Boston but it's 2001 for me by far. After 9/11, sports didn't matter for a bit but that team just kinda lifted everyone up. And to win those two games in extras the way they did, you felt like it was destined to happen

This was the most somber game I've ever been to though. But, it will always have the greatest moment I think I'll ever witness live...and I've seen Jeter's 300th hit and the hit he passed Lou with recently
