What in the hanging chads is this bullshit?

Sounds like a presser that could have been a Signal chat

I've never been to Baltimore, but the O's fans I've met that have come to Toronto have been lovely and represented their city well. Cheer for us in your jerseys!

Have to say I have never felt anything but support from the Blue Jays broadcasters for the local team (#BuckWasRight) but do appreciate how they tell the stories of the opposing teams.

The umps absolutely hate us, it's not just a gut feeling supported by near-50 years of recency bias.

Because of my job and my social media follows I'm always hearing from people of almost every fanbase, and 100% of them believe that the broadcasters love the other team and hate their team. And yes, this comes from fans of both teams in the same game pretty consistently. bsky.app/profile/chri...

Near-universal forum complaints:
- the umps are against us/the game is rigged
- the broadcasters are rooting for the other team

A tarp less Varsho interrupts a Sportsnet infield video segment. Varsho is "Last night's Win", the Sportsnet team is "Things I should be doing today"

What saddened me most last night was the inevitable reminder that baseball is almost over one way or another, and the offseason is long and uncertain.
Keep it going as long as possible, but enjoy it while it lasts.
