Except this was probably the exact reason he was brought in: to lend his reputation as a wall against public opinion as the other owners took a look at Jeff Loria’s exploits and said, “Hold my aged cognac.”

Kinda hard to re2pect this a22hole anymore.

It was SB Nation, but yes.

This is sad and all too similar to the endless number of women who are physically and emotionally abused, only to decline to press charges and/or leave.

In Massachusetts, it is illegal to base hiring decisions on arrests or indictments that did not lead to conviction. It is probably illegal even to ask about and/or collect that information.

I spent a few wild and crazy Spring Breaks at Padre in the late 90s and somehow managed to avoid being indicted by a grand jury for aggravated sexual assault of a child. You’re really willing to chalk being arrested for gang rape up to youthful irresponsibility? That’s extremely fucked up.

You shouldn’t comment on a sport you clearly know nothing about.

He stepped on the guy’s ankle after the ball was gone. Is that a yellow normally? Yeah, it is. Why wouldn’t it be in this case?

Here before all the Barcelona fans start telling this was more a penalty that the one against Juventus

God bless Marlins Man and his cohort for doing the thing every Marlins fan wanted to do but couldn’t.
