    It's weird how European soccer leagues are seemingly doing OK, while every actual sport trying to restart here is going to be a disaster.

    Excellent news.

    Play ball!

    Media and the left is the answer to the question you're implying.

    It's hyperbole. There is a certain section of the fanbase that unnecessarily pumps him up so this counter balances it.

    When a guy like Markakis refuses to play you have to start worrying that many will be following him out.

    Think I'd be more worried about seeing several more players follow his lead if you're overly concerned about there actually being a season.

    With him calling no go and Freddie getting infected there's a legitimate chance that plenty of players in the Braves' clubhouse(s) decide it just isn't worth it.
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    Looking at that tweet he seems less concerned about covid and more about playing in empty stadiums.

    Addition by subtraction. Rather see the kids play.
