Ryan Braun is calling Brewer ticket holders individually to apologize, really...

I'd welcome Jose back.

Who wantsa rev this one up all over again? It's two years later and Ryan Braun is about the most disgraced player in baseball. Not that this has anything to do with Jose's honor, of course. But does anyone here really think that on the last day of the season, a 25-games-out team's 78th win matters more to a player than his own chance to win his league's batting title? Ya think that players risk their health, their careers and their personal reputations by shooting god know what up their asses all so that their team might win a few more games in a season? Ya think that if he could, Tom Seaver would trade his career for Jim McAndrew's in exchange for another WS ring or two? I'd bet that Seaver wouldn't even wanna trade his career for Jerry Koosman's.

Well, I think it's nice that Willets came back and we patched things up. Red-head loving, liberal Metfans have to stick together.

But i still agree with Edgy, and stand by every word i wrote, and am proud I convinced LWFS of my position, too.
In fact, I think I was eloquent as fuck. If not my finest CPF moment, it was among my favorites.

Clusterfuck? I disagree.
A lengthy debate about the nature of honor (or "honor", as some would have it) is a thread worth keeping and remembering.

I agreed with everything you wrote about honor. I just think that you might as well still believe in Santa Claus to expect players to truly feel that way in that context and circumstance.

Oh, it was a nice debate, some sliver of it. It wasn't a shitshow until we went around the mulberry bush for the eleventeenth time, and people started getting all huffy and making with the "I'm leaving"/"well, fine, asshole, just go."

Mmm... Honor.
