There will be 40-50 front page stories in the NYT and endless Congressional hearings about this firing. Yeah, right.

The front page of the Times is reserved for stories about how Augusta National still does not admit women members...

That’s fine as long as you include scratch your ass and spit (baseball) in your ban!

after the last 3 nights performance I might be so inclined...

but NO, I love this game too much.

I think it’s the most booring usless thing ever invented!

Went to one game 61 years ago and that was enough.

I watch them pretty much every night during the season.

but baseball is a finesse game, not for all. some folks need the crash and burn of the defensive and offensive line of a football game. I appreciate both....but soccer, basketball and Hockey leave me cold...especially the commie game of soccer.

"especially the commie game of soccer."

Yep! - Teaches kids to accept unjust authority without complaint. Basketball is getting that way too.

One other thing to consider - many of the complaints that led to the IG investigation are rumored to have originated from the office of the former mayor in her attempt to kneecap Johnson before he formally announced his run.

It is the opinion of many around here that it was dirty democrat politics that started the whole mess.
