    I've always had a soft spot for the Houston Astros, maybe because they've been the laughing stock of the league most of my life, but this is ridiculous. Major League Baseball has to step in and do something. There's now a precedent that a team can away with cheating with only a slap on the wrist.

    It's sad when we all realize baseball is following the same script that politics are following.

    No. That dude was doing a great job holding that L, and now he’s trying to give it back like he didn’t already sign his name on it.

    I didn’t sign my name on anything. I just chose not to continue beating my head against the wall arguing with the ignorant. And in the end I was vindicated.

    Okay, guy. Notice how everyone else was criticizing your take as well. Keep pretending that they would have actually gotten rid of one of their star players if they spoke up against the act. It’s ****ing ridiculous.

    After today, the other MLB owners need to force Crane to sell the Astros.

    Contract the Astros.

    All Astros players have their contracts voided, and are returned to zero service time. The affected players will be placed in an open draft, with the selection order determined alphabetically by the teams' city as listed in the official team name.

    I would give Crane another chance. He just missed a sign yesterday.

    What’s he supposed to be? Suspend and fine the players? The union will defend the players and have it all overturned. He knows that

    Remove their championship. Issue post season bans. Anything. And maybe not come out with the horse **** excuse of “well the push back they’re getting from social media and the internet is punishment enough.” He’s a spineless waste of space that only cares about protecting the owners and their wallets.

    I don't like the idea of postseason bans in professional sports, because it benefits some teams over others. But they shoulda had the hammer brought down on them. At least as bad as the penalties that we got
