This is stupid because they’re already in the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, which is both a register and a literal museum. They’re both in the museum, and they both committed acts they knew could result in lifetime bans. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to keep them from being honored as inductees.

Shoeless Joe I can kind of get behind, because while the truth is that he did knowingly participate, he was also tempted with a life-changing amount of money in an age when athletes couldn’t afford to take the off season off. And there’s the fact that Charles Comiskey was in on it and shifted his share of the blame onto the players, and probably would have framed anyone who objected.

Pete Rose, however, is a true degenerate, whom we can only hope is experiencing a Hell in which 14 year old girls are forever just out of reach. He’s in the Hall of Fame and Museum in the only part of the building he needs to be, which is in an exhibit. The man agreed to accept a lifetime ban, with NO contest, because the commissioner offered him a choice between that and having the investigation made public. And it wasn’t, not fully. But knowing that, and knowing that he was gambling, and that he was a manager? You cannot sell me the idea that Pete Rose wasn’t fixing games, not for a penny, even if you threw in Hawaii. If we can’t get the Hall of Fame to keep out sexual degenerates, they should at least have the decency to keep out people who literally fixed and threw games.

In real life, or in ARMA 3?

“And it should be me”

Kinda funny how perfectly they’re described by the phrase “wolves in sheep’s clothing”, knowing its origin and context.

Could the punch line be any lazier?

Trying to get out in front of criticism by preemptively mocking it doesn’t delegitimize it. Doing so just makes you look like you just switched topics from fluoridated water and are holding a bundle of stolen copper wire under your arm.

We’re still in the uncanny valley, but it seems that we’re climbing out of it. I’m already being ‘tricked’ left and right by near perfect voice ai and tinkered with image gen

The 2025 Dodgers are going to end up being the greatest team to ever lose the NLDS in 4 games

When Oblivion came out there was no shortage of shitposters screaming and crying that it was too bright and cartoonish because it had green grass and blue skies. I guess if your experience with graphics comes from the Piss Filter era, and you don’t go outside, you’ll think everything that isn’t muddy brown is unrealistic.

The fake jobs are euphemisms for having a trust fund.

What’s the point of wrestling with a pig? You both get muddy, and the pig likes it.
Maybe it’s because I grew up with the old, “mean” internet, but my response to communities full of trash is to leave them alone and let the blind lead the blind. Seriously, what the hell is arguing with them going to do? They expect to be challenged, they will not see reason, they will not suffer to be helped, and you are not going to be the person who changes that.

“Why isn’t my horse pushing the cart”

For real, I was shocked it was as many as seven drones they shot down. I saw $200M and figured it meant two.

Easy, just use your mouth.

I can only assume the lede you buried in “many of my peers” was that it didn’t include a lot of the women.
