    At the very least Cintron needs to go. Enough is enough. Even bad teams can score runs.

    oh trust me, I know what I’m talking about. Certainly not gonna drag names into this dumb thread just because you have never seen their posts and are requesting them. So you’re saying someone on the left has never made a wise crack about the right in here? Ever? Never attacked anyone on the right? Ever? Not once? That is truly stupid if that is what you are really saying. All kinds of anti right or anti maga **** posted in here bro. It does actually happen both ways. Both are stupid and need to be kept out of the Astro threads. So please stop.

    I agree. Let’s not continue discussion here.

    Message me privately with the names. I have been here for a long time. I have read the vast majority of the posts. I have never seen it. So enlighten me. I genuinely want to know.

    Then you haven’t read the vast majority. I suggest you do your own research. The very premise of your argument is really dumb.

    1. you

    you can find the rest if you want

    Fondant looks pretty, but is by far the worst part of a cake.

    Laughable. I’m supposed to comb through thousands of posts to prove the negative - that something does not exist. You made the claim, not me. Seems you are making it up.

    Naming me proves how laughable this is. I called out people for interjecting politics, told them to quit, and reported it. They have not bothered to delete the post, acknowledge their conduct, or otherwise respond appropriately. Nor have they rebuked me for calling it out.

    In the last 3-5 years, there are exactly 4 people who have interjected politics into this Astros forum on their own accord. Including the two in this thread. I can name them if you like. They know who they are. They have not done it again since being called out for it and reported. You don’t like me pointing out the similarity among these offending posters, thats a you problem.

    You said nobody as ever talked **** about the right on the Astro forum. That’s a laughably stupid thing to say. Just by saying it’s only people on the right, 100% of the time, you proved your idiocy. Also, you let everyone here know what side you are on, which is already going too far. People on both sides have done it. Quit being a douche.

    I was on the left when I was younger, then moved to the right when I got a bit older.

    We're talking about baseball, right?

    Nope, that’s what you would like me to have said. Re read my posts. I will make it easy for you. I said - “Name the people who interjected politics into this Astros forum. Not who responded to the injection and telling them to stop. Name the offending instigators.”

    Instigators.

    The people who interjected politics into this Astros forum for no reason, out of the blue. These are the people who are causing the problem, causing this very discussion you and I are having. These are the 4 people I am talking about who share the same side of the political spectrum. Fortunately, it is a fairly rare thing, but it does need to be shut down. And that’s exactly what I am doing. And you don’t like me calling it out. Thats a you problem.

    You want to equate the instigators with the people who respond to shut them up. You don’t like that I talked crap about the instigators, perhaps because you share their political space. That’s a you problem.

    I think you should be against anyone instigating political discussion in this Astros forum. You post here a lot. I would think you would want it to be free of politics.

    Not kidding, I was SS/3B/LF until Jr High then I moved to 1B (because I was the one kid who could catch anything the other idiots could throw anywhere near me), then 2B in HS.

    Oh my lord. Really? I can’t read this trash. Just leave your politics off the Astro board.

    I shoulda guessed.

    This is a great humblebrag. Basically you played all IF positions because you were awesome.

    I played lawyer beer league softball - pitcher and then SS because we were terrible. Then 1B because I am 6-2 and have the mobility of an office chair

    I take your response as a white flag. Walk away.

    The position I was best at is the one position on the field that "they" say "any idiot with a pulse and a glove can play"

    1B

    So yeah, I take it a little personally when people complain about the right

    Again, a failure to read. You have thin skin on behalf of the offending posters.

    I posted that they come from the same end of political spectrum. I stated a clear and obvious fact. That’s not a political view. I never stated my political views or opinions. I stated my disdain for those who do so here.

    It appears you are more concerned about defending your tribe than keeping politics out of this Astros forum. You don’t like that I rebuked certain people. That is a you problem.
