    There Will Be Baseball . . .

    In South Korea! Will ESPN cover? Is it too late to have a fantasy draft?

    Its like you don't even realize how overblown this was.

    But when you block all dissenting views its hard to know the truth.

    Egads! Try to start a lighthearted (but hopefully informative) thread on actual baseball and it turns into yet another food fight. As someone who started this thread, I request that it be closed.

    Oh, rest assured, it's not just you. I should apologize for being such a d*ck.

    It seems the only thing worse than COVID-19 is the fever it causes among the uninfected.

    No need to apologize. It happens here far more often than on past Braves boards.
    Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......

    And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

    Nah you still have that one drunk fan heckling and you can hear them in the broadcast because it echoes throughout the stadium.

    In fall league, there's literally nobody in stands heckling or cheering, just scouts with radar guns. lol.

    I'm starting to think there won't be baseball and man I hope I'm wrong.

    But holy cow it would be hilarious to see the Dodgers pay so much for Mookie only for this to happen.
