no, it's literally the point. If I say "I want pretzels to exist" you either want pretzels to exist, or you don't. You don't have to get up on a pulpit for Pretzels, though you should, as they're delicious, but any other stance on the matter only serves to detract from the point. If I wanted to build a pretzel shop, and all the shops around where I built it got put up with no debate, saying "but what about a taco shop?" and "maybe you should build it over there?" or "the hot dog shop over there deserves to get built too! (even though it's under construction)" "or actually some pretzels are burnt and actually not good" it all detracts from the point. but you clearly are avoiding facing the core of the issue. The statement is to stop letting the police kill black people disproportionately and with no accountability, any "yeah but" is literally saying black lives matter, but not THAT much, and that's clearly a bad take. You can't yeah but "stop murdering" it should be such a universally agreed upon statement. And it mostly is. The entire world agrees, except a slim minority of assholes, and so many of those are political leaders and professional blow-hards that it becomes controversial.

to be clear, there is no "stance" it's not a both sides thing. You either don't want black people to get murdered, or you do. We need to stop un-educating people that there are any other 'sides' to this.

Every Yankee and National stood too, a large portion of the Nationals visited the White House just this last November, and the Yankees are inviting 45 to throw out at pitch at Yankee Stadium, so while yes, the Mets are probably mostly scumbag redneck republicans, they've still got a leg up on those two I guess, mostly by omissions. (The Mets supposedly have a 'surprise' person throwing out a first pitch in August, which most are assuming to mean Cuomo) It's worth noting I don't think I heard a single reference to the police during any of these things, though admittedly I haven't been watching them religiously or anything, but I've seen no quotes or references to it. The closest is perhaps the Rays reminding people it's a good day to arrest the scumbags who murdered Breonna Taylor. It's great that this movement and the idea of unity and patches and support is leaguewide, but damn, sanitize the hell of it no?

MetsMarathon has some blanks there that were completed here, that I completed and I added Frayed Knot. I also added the 'Actual' column and formulas to auto-score.

=Fman99 post_id=41365 time=1595552054 user_id=86] And now we're in a rain delay. Hated team beating other hated team 4-1 in the 6th. I'm rooting for the lightning.

no players have kneeled yet, the Yankees and Nats were too pathetic.

there's like 60man taxi squads or something right? that I haven't read up on exactly. they're 'around' though.

can they? space wise? social distancing wise? If say the gym is half the side, the clubhouse only has 30 lockers instead of 75, etc? Maybe for some recently constructed ones, but which ones are those? certainly not in NY.

btw the spreadsheet has the results from 2016-2018 in it as well, if you're wondering who's list to copy

'annual' if you skip 2019. Here's a spreadsheet for this, that should make tabulation and entry easier. If you don't want to, I'll copy it over for you later. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YielPWgFwlR_0LnMC6wEHoNa9_O5Sj4xyRsPQHApLnA/edit?usp=sharinghttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YielPWgFwlR_0LnMC6wEHoNa9_O5Sj4xyRsPQHApLnA/edit?usp=sharing

if this is helpful (it's not?) The Mets best 60 game stretch was opening the '86 season 44-16. They also went 44-16 from game 6-65.

I mean, they're tested every two days right? They'd be safer if at least like, the catcher, batter and infielders wore masks while playing, (and ump) but I doubt that's enough for a mass infection, given the testing. I'd be more concerned about what players are doing before games, are they in their same maskless, clubhouse full of music and sweating? are they working out in the gym together? I still don't understand why they didn't move some of this stuff to concourses and the field, open air. trainers room, for example.

1. The Mets record (60 games). 45-15 2. Where will they finish in the NL East? Is there something higher than first? no? first. 3. Will The Mets make the playoffs (yes/no)? Obviously 4. If so, how far will they advance and the number of games in their final round? 3-2,4-0,4-0. Everything. 5. How many home runs will Pete Alonso hit? 12

=nymr83 post_id=40605 time=1594937317 user_id=54] Arod today reminded us what a huge hypocrit he is, calling for revenue sharing/salary cap. Is he the highest paid player ever? But now he wants to be an owner so let's cap em!

45-15, steamroll everyone. They all suck, screw him. The conspiracy theories about the Mets purposely leaving virus in opposing clubhouses crops up late August, but the team just blames Beltran and ignores it. squeak out a 3-2 win in the NLDS, but then don't lose another game.

=MFS62 post_id=40965 time=1595247512 user_id=60] It doesn't have to be a major league park because seating capacity isn't an issue. What about Hartford? Half way between NY and Boston, so travel isn't an issue and it is only a few years old, so it would have up-to-date amenities for the players and good places for them to dine after the games. Just sayin'. Later

wonder if anyone is going to opt out now. I imagine if you're a Blue Jay, you won't be able to see your family at all

I can't imagine them shutting it down if they get started. It would take some really dire. They're not doing a particularly good job at the whole testing thing, but they are doing it, and it will help. It doesn't seem like any team is doing something like group inside cafeteria dining (but maybe they are, who knows..) so like, worst case is a few teammates show up positive, they cancel two games while everyone gets tested, and most people probably pass, they replace them, and keep going.
