PHOENIX -- The Texas Rangers spent seven months of this season terrorizing opponents with a menacing offense that feasted on home runs and hardly ever let up.

The Rangers bullpen blew so many games. If they just had an average bullpen during the season, they probably would have won 100 games.

But they stepped it up in the Post-Season.

I haven’t watched a game since then and don’t plan to unless MLB apologizes to veterans (but I’m not holding my breath).

That team (Post 16) is the anti-Texas Rangers, filthy Communists taking a knee to support their komrades in other Communist organizations such as Black Lives MatterTM.

Good riddance to them. May their team and their sport disappear into the dustbin of history.

The Rangers never disrespected the flag/national anthem that I am aware of. I don’t think that’s them.
Please clarify

I would point out there aren’t likely to be any rioting resulting from this.

OTOH, I really don’t care for sportsball (regardless of type). I have no need of bread and circuses.

im in Detroit...oh , how ive suffered with these Lions. This is the best Lions team i think ive seen...even better than the Barry Sanders teams of the early-mid 90’s. Yet, i still keep waiting for some type of collapse....6-2 and only have 1 tough game left on the schedule, at Dallas. If they get home field for the playoffs...yikes.

Heathen that I am, didn’t watch a single pitch , or even a score. Truth be told, could not tell you who played in it except reading this post.
