    Seattle owner offends indiscriminately

    https://www.lookoutlanding.com/2021/...st-rotary-club

    It's hard to believe what birdbrains some of these guys are. And to say things like these in a time of such heightened sensitivity and so many cancel culture disasters.
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    @GeoffBakerTIMES
    BREAKING: The Mariners and former high performance director Lorena Martin in recent months quietly resolved her wrongful termination case.

    @craigcalcaterra
    This case involved accusations that Mariners' top brass used racist comments about foreign-born Mariners players. Feel like "the day after the defendants created a fantastic plaintiff's exhibit" is a good day to settle it!

    He just resigned.

    The player's union is eating this up.

    What exactly did he say? I skimmed the transcript and couldn't find anything too obscene, albeit I had a textbook reading about tax laws for corporations vs partnerships open on another tab

    I think the lesson is that anything can be a cancel-able offense at this time.

    "I'm tired of paying his interpreter" was not a real smart way to address the language issue LOL
