No hidden videos and banging garbage cans might make them feel at a disadvantage.

Altuve has an injured knee. It’s been well documented. Correa has a pregnant gf. It’s already been documented all over the place they weren’t the only team that cheated along with all the other baseball cheating methods. Honestly the astros deserve a medal. They let everyone blast the shit out of them and they didn’t say anything about the other teams who were cheating.

What’s the point of telling on the other teams when they are the ones who got caught. I’ve yet to hear the astros even admit that they did it let alone rat out someone else. Mark, Barry, and Roger could tell on others who used steroids while they were but it wouldn’t help THEIR case/perception.

Exactly it doesn’t help them you’re right. But my point is to the people that are still bitter years later that they cheated. All teams were doing variations of this along with many other cheating methods. It is what it is

It's a snoozefest. That's why players are skipping. If you like watching paint dry you watch the All Star Game.

Except when Brady won last year, he showed why he didn't need Bellichick's cheating ass. Brady freed himself from that narrative. Bellichick hasn't. Brady can play football with a frisbee rock or gallon of milk and he'd still win.

Yes because they won after it to. Brady still proved he’s one of the greatest. Just like it that situation Altuve and Correa proved they can still be elite baseball players. They tried to gain a competitive advantage like every player in every sport.
Using a different way to look at this, look at nba players the way they exaggerate fouls. Essentially they are doing a disservice to the game or cheating in a way to get calls but they do it because it’s worth a lot of money to be successful. If you told me the difference between me average 5-10 more points or bringing my batting average up to .300 meant I would make 100 million or more dollars and could set up every family member I have and create generational wealth for them and the only harm in it would be fans get mad the other team didn’t win I’m doing it everytime and I doubt many would pass on it

As much as I don’t like Brady he literally drives players around him to play 5-10x harder then they ever had in fear of disappointing him. He promotes a culture of being the best and not allowing people to accept losing.

Its not hard to raise Canseco’s likeability quotient when it was already in the negative as a buffoon, selfish, and a terrible teammate. Ratting out or snitching comes pretty easy for those types of people.

yeah as long as the refs let his defenses play just as physical or more than the opponent but get called for 3x less flags
everyone thinks that tampa run was so great it wasn't... just took advantage of saints fumble and old ass injured brees... the refs against green bay and dummy packers D and then an injured re-arranged offensive line and guys dropping or letting amazing passes hit them in the face vs KC

No offense to Fosse. If that's enough to separate your shoulder, you're not the toughest guy around.
Fosse still played several years after that play. Rose thought Fosse over-played it.
Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?

The game is meaningless, nobody cares who wins and the alternative is three days of partying; twenty years from now, the game may not exist.

Michael Brantley and Ryan Pressly will not participate in the All-Star Game. Brantley will use the break to rest an injury (right side soreness) and Pressly has chosen to remain home with his wife, who is expecting their first child.
