I didn't fail a steroid test and then throw out a bullshit "Dominican milkshakes" excuse and then (LOLOLOL) say I will investigate the result. The logical gymnastics people do to excuse Ortiz are amazing. Not like he's a cool dude anyways. He's been a massive prick to opponents, umpires and the media for years now. I…

"Ortiz is different, he denied it so he obviously didn't do it."

When ESPN and FOX tell you for 12 years that you're America's Team and that everyone loves you and you can do no wrong, you start to believe it. The Sox clubhouse is like North Korea with that shit. They're convinced they have a divine right to talk shit about opponents, throw at people, stare at home runs and flip…

Nothing more amazing than seeing the Sox complain about someone not Playing the Game the Right Way while every asshole on their team talks shit and they all flip their bats and watch their dingers. That and Sox pitches using Yankees hitters as target practice for two decades now.

He also did the same with in a *SPRING TRAINING* game when he was with the Rays. He's a massive asshole (as is Ortiz, but that's besides the point), and yet from ESPN and FOX telling it you'd think he's the cuddliest, grittiest gentleman out there.

And Gomes still doesn't have a suspension for running in from the outfield to fight a coach and player on the Rays last week. MLB and the umpires fucked this up, but the Sox aren't poor, defenseless lambs here.

So it wasn't just me. FUCK OFF, ESPN/ABC. It was an awesome end to the race and they ruined it with that stupid shit.

I am shocked, shocked that a bunch of entitled, narcissistic assholes took offense to a team stealing a base with a 5-run lead. It's like when Ortiz flips his bat and stares at a homer for half an hour and the Sox throw a bitch-fit if anyone else doesn't Play the Game the Right Way. I think when the media gives you a…

Seems like a fitting punishment for a mullet.

As one who suffers from seasonal allergies, I believe her. It can hit you like a goddamn brick and there's nothing you can do, and it can render you a fucking vegetable for those few seconds when it happens. Shit is real, and like DRobin down below, it's a one of my biggest fears in driving.

Williams is a troglodyte. Him working with Reynolds is a happy circle jerk of stupid.

Sigh. :(

Should've stabbed a guy instead, Gordo.

I don't get why you're so damn hostile over it, to be honest. Yes, batteries suck, but I don't think they suck enough to warrant the two long-ass rants about how sucky suck electric cars are. Solid-state batteries, which are getting closer and closer (Univ. of Colorado folks developed one that in practice has double…

I state pretty often in this whole discussion that batteries and range are still big issues with electric cars. Nobody is debating that. I'm saying that as cars in terms of literally everything except energy storage they're as good as or better than ICE cars nowadays. You didn't really need to completely twist what I…

The closest thing to a "normal price" is the Leaf, and while it's a higher price, it's not outrageous. Again, I'm not getting the "compromises" in making them you're talking about other than battery packaging, something the Leaf (more affordable) and Model S (expensive) both do very well, resulting in no downside from…

Maintenance, fuel cost and reliability are big driving factors in terms of EV appeal. When the powertrain is reduced to an electric motor that will last as long as the universe and a differential, things get simpler. I still don't get what you mean by EV's being "worse." Range is the one and only downside at this…

Interior space depends on how they package batteries. The Model S has plenty of it. The Leaf isn't bad compared to the Versa. Range anxiety isn't "performance", it's range anxiety. Basically, I think you just mean batteries suck right now, and I agree 10000% percent with that.

What do you mean by "performance" exactly? Electric motors put out a ton of torque from when you step on the pedal. I've been in a Volt and Leaf, and short of using telemetry, one can't tell any difference whatsoever compared to performance in same segment gas cars.

That'll be for the Morons Desperate to Prove Wealth demographic.
