Scorned Mistress Trouble for MLB

RR

If it is so bad here why are you living here ?

You seem to be able to take advantage of what the country has to offer including I assume "special benefits"

Lose the freaking cross--it is getting boring

This is not a political forum even if you might think think so--take it somewhere else--I think it is time you are banned and eliminated--but that is just my own opinion

RR...I can be as "liberal" as they come.

I'm not concerned at all.

Watch the "changes" in the November elections.

You should be happy to live here.

Baseball articles are nothing but about the politics of baseball in how players are treated, viewed and either assimilated into the game or rejected.

The articles discussed has more meaning than one cares to admit.

Just recently the US Supreme Court issued a law that allows the local government where you live to take your property using emminent domain and givng it to someone else. That means you no longer have sole ownership property rights.

Baseball players are also citizens that are effected by what goes on in this country. Inspite of a desire to ignore the reality of what effects our sons and our families in the pursuit of the game it doesn't help to ignore current events in and out of the game.

This article speaks volumes about how players rights to privacy and protection from self-incrimination can be twisted by using third party hearsay in lieu of hard evidence. This players rights are being thrown aside to achieve an desired outcome...just because a player is black and has an ugly personality...is not a justification for the methods being used.

Means to an end at all cost are not part of our democratic system of justice. We are supposed to be a country of laws that respect the sovereignty of the individual to be secure in his property and person. That is what is being ignored completely, here.

This, to me is the worse form of selective authoritarianism.
