What lol this is a genuinely funny thing to say 🤣

Elle-isson Becker @grammarous.bsky.social · 3h

Yeah and I’m not touchy it’s just SO OLD. I don’t live in Houston anymore and interact with tons of baseball fans and people do not really talk about it like online trolls do. But dang it’s like, we can’t celebrate a damn thing (Ben’s original post) without SOMEONE coming in and trying to be “funny”

Lotta skepticism about 41-year-old Max Scherzer but I assure you he's in his prime. As prime as he was at 37. He won't be prime again until 43.

Good God not this again. There are still actual baseball “fans” out there that say this? (And think it’s funny? 😭) And also people who claim to know baseball but completely ignore the other well-documented instances of other teams cheating?

Love this @michaelshapiro.bsky.social profile of an awesome Astros Twitter person.

"I kind of wanted to do it to show that Houston people are good people," Holly said. "A lot of Mariners fans would say, 'I can't believe an Astros' fan would do this.' And it makes me want to do it even more.'"

Astros fan tired of cheating talk buys playoff tickets for strangers

"I want to change the narrative around the Astros."

What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity.

And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

And how everything meant to be a dig or goading gets so masterfully flipped into something positive or something that makes the opponent look stupid.

Yuck. Because he has a history of terrible behavior I have had a hard time separating the art from the artist. I used to enjoy his music, but I just can’t anymore. Shame.
