You might be wise to not publicize that as your Texan neighbours will likely string you up to a lone star flag pole.game day baby!
although i live in texas...im rooting for Atlanta
i lived in GA for a bit so i have a pass
I'll be cheering for the Astros as the Braves are my least favorite MLB team.

Not much to know. Anytime they had a runner on second. They had film crew, film signs from center to the catcher and managers. Then would have the dugout single to runner on second what the play or pitch was. Runner on second then singled the batter the type of pitch coming. Boom. You have a home run derby. Straight up. Smart. But illegal. Redsox did it the next year cause astros got away with it. Then astros fucked up and pissed of one of their pitchers. Traded him. And he snitched.

Every team steals signs or read pitching tells.. they still do. Houston took it to the next level but since they aren't the Red Sox or Yankees it's easy for them to be the scapegoat for the whole league. That was in 2017. Lost draft picks, coach, gm, and the rest of the league was ok with it since it wasn't their team. Only the infield exists from that team. The masterminds Cora is now coach of Red Sox and Beltran is now with the Mets. Also for fans rooting for the Braves just because of the scandal... Morton was a big part of that 2017 WS team. (mind blown?) I will always root for ol' Uncle Mort.. except today.
so for those out of the loop or wants to hear beyond the bias...
Chris Bassitt says it wasn't just the Astros cheating <<<-- this is straight from the snitches current teammate.

TBH I'm kind of conflicted since Braves were my team as a kid.. Dale Murphy was my fav player.

It’s nails in the coffin for both astros and red Sox. And its illegal and been known illegal for years. Like Cork or peds. Knowing the pitch is the same as a home run derby.
The gm already stated. We got caught. And have to suffer what the league gives us. And the players had to take a stand to apologize to the country. Because children play this game. I know winning is everything. But to cheat and know your cheating. Is low. Fuck the astros entire organization for the next 15 years. It’s one thing to cheat. But to know your a cheat. Get caught. And say you knew you were cheating.
And knew it was bad and ugly that it created problems in office because people who worked for the astros thought it was demoralizing the game.
we’re talking about a group of management arguing about cheating. That conversation happened. Weather or not. They should play fair baseball. (Not to mention the racist ass team making fun of yu darviah eye slits while Knowingly cheating and stealing his pitches)

Dodgers were the 3rd team mentioned in the scandals and this year there's an SI article of Dodgers doctoring balls and why their coach doesn't think it's cheating since everyone does it.. Sounds familiar? wish them well when it comes back around after they investigate. Hope it makes their team more battle tested like it did with the Astros.

Lmfao. No proof was ever found. They investigated the team’s rotation because their fast ball has more movement then all of baseball. Guess what. When you have 3 aces in rotation. Your bound for some nasty movement in pitch’s with high speed. That’s science. Essp when your talking Kershaw bulher and Bauer. No proof. At all. Just someone who said it’s impossible to have that much movement on a baseball. That’s it.

That was far before hand before anyone new he a was sex freak. Like really. And abuse sex addict. Not like that’s on his collage resume. And he’s been dismissed since that shit.
once again. Astros upstairs knew they were demoralizing the game. Cheaters are what they are in the end. Dishonest
Too bad they didn treat that whistle blower a tad better.
