The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

I didn't say that the Dodgers have no chance. I said that I'm sure you didn't want them to lose during the season, and they lost 6x.

Dodgers overall have more talent, with 3 x the payroll. Brewers are long shots. Im still going to laugh at goofy comments!

It happened 6 times this season - I’m betting you’ll really put your foot down this time!

But also.. good luck to the Dodgers! I understand the goal of flipping the script as the disliked team with triple the payroll, but maybe we can just enjoy the series?

His comment was phrased as a question, and your misquote changes the meaning of what he said. “Is my job to win a World Series," Attanasio said, via Bob Nightengale of USA Today, “or is my job to provide a summer of entertainment and passion and a way for families to come together?"

Wow, compelling. Go Brewers!

Cubs players and even marketing team call Amfam field “Wrigley north” - that’s just one example. Touchdown celebrations. Randy Moss mooning the packers. Disrespecting Dallas’ star. Bat flipping. Its part of all sports.

Its playoff baseball. Cubs pitchers were amped up all week.

Double Jee @doublejee.bsky.social · 5h

Priester had a bad game, could be fine. Miz may be able to pitch 5 or 6 innings, now that he went 4 innings yesterday. Quintana is also an option. Patrick has pitched well too.

Trolling has always been part of sports. You need only look as far as Cubs fans tweets and social media comments after beating the Brewers.

Double Jee @doublejee.bsky.social · 6h

Chicago had a worse road split then Milwaukee, showing they’re more likely to have been cheating at home than the Brewers were. If you’re going by disbelief in their record alone, keep that in mind

Double Jee @doublejee.bsky.social · 6h

Unfounded claims of sign stealing? Get over it. Anyone can create a claim without evidence. Cubs have accusations against them and positive PED tests too.

Double Jee @doublejee.bsky.social · 9h

This isn't a thing. Accusing baseball teams of cheating is the not so grown up version of accusing kids of cheating on the playground because you can't accept your L.

The same can be said for the Cubs and their MAGA cult owners. And this can also be read in whatever way you’d like!

The Mets didn't even make the playoffs! You have zero shit to talk this season. Sad!

And yet, they will have been playing for weeks longer than the Mets, whether you're right or not. Keep crying from the sidelines!

Double Jee @doublejee.bsky.social · 20h

They will start with a 2 game lead. I don't make the rules

Where are the Mets now btw?
