With the money he got from FOX, I don't think he needed anything from her for this deal to get done.

Yeah, being suspended all that time is a big reason why he's slipping. No team to work with, doing everything on his own for 2 years isn't going to help you. He even pizzed off his teammates in Japan, that's why he's in Mexico. LOL Yeah, it's possible he's not pitching today, because he is a tw@t, but the suspension was absurd and most likely why he hasn't been pitching the last few years.

Manfred gave him a 300+ game suspension and an arbitrator (with the player association backing him), got it knocked down to like 190 or something like that. He proved that one girl set him up and her accusations of sexual assault were dropped. There are still other accusations against him, but the girl he took to court was the reason they suspended him. He's also not signed because everyone hates him... he's a complete azzhole. LOL He did pitch in Japan and wasn't as good there as here, plus he's 32 now, so there's no real desire to sign him. But still, without that one big accusation, there wasn't much to go on, and he proved she lied and set him up. Had that not happened, he probably gets a 30-game suspension and pitching today.

Is that better or worse?

He'll get the Michael Jordan treatment. He'll come out saying he's taking a year off to deal with the off-the-field issues... maybe 2, and then come back. No one will ever say he actually bet on baseball and the league will never "punish" him.

They suspended Bauer for a year and a half for being framed!

By the sounds of it, that's what this rule is. LOL

You should, but the cost of living up here is pretty crappy. From what I hear, you just have to teach, but accept that you don't have an opinion when it comes to the union. It's the liberal agenda all the way.

You need to move to NJ.

America is only racist when a Democrat needs to win.

From a New Jersey perspective, because I don't know about other states, teaching is the racquet. You get to be a part-time employee, make full-time wages, an awesome pension, awesome medical benefits, and you still get to complain about how little you make.

Not sure what the clip is about, but back in the day, fitness and cognitive requirements for becoming a police officer were lowered because not enough minorities and women could pass them. The result was a small handful of women and minorities got jobs but a huge amount of bad white people did too. The thing is, when you lower requirements to give more opportunity to lesser qualified people, the net result is a substantial increase in people you don't want, getting in.

It doesn't belong anywhere, but it belongs with the states more than at the federal level. At the federal level, it's a compromise. It's not the best choice, but it's the easiest. The best choice is that it's a medical issue where the person pays for it if they want it. I'm ok with a federal guideline like we have with smoking and drinking. Not so much the age, but stage in pregnancy... but the one thing it should NOT be, is a constitutional right. hth

They'll let this linger for a few years to get those 16 to 21's on their side, then raise it to $25 and blame the Republican's on why they couldn't go to $50.

No, I have common sense. You just want something to blame Trump for. You're not happy unless you're arguing about something.

Oh I get it, you are an idiot. He's right, it belongs in the hands of the states. The reason for that is that no one can agree on the topic... therefore, let the states handle it. He's also saying that if people can come to a compromise, he's all for it. Sounds like something you'd want from a President.

If CA does this, I wonder how they're going to deal with the onslaught of people wanting minimum wage positions for jobs where they can work remotely from places like Iowa and Kansas.

Attention?

In the same vain as if he doesn't win, he's promising a bloodbath?

LOL, this is funny. I was told by many board libs that when Northam wanted VA to make abortion legal up until birth, that the vast majority of Democrats don't agree with him. So here's Trump saying he's ok with abortions, he just wants a time limit and yet, liberals are claiming he wants to ban them completely. He actually agrees with Democrats, and they're condemning him for it. TOO TOO FUNNY!!!

You're media has really pulled the wool over your eyes. LOL You are a very good puppet for them.

You just found this out? I thought this has been common sense for like 30 years.

LOL, that won't matter as your party moves closer and closer towards communism with every election.

Liberals do. It gave them precedence to falsely imprison Americans they don't trust, just because they disagree with them. It's the foundation of the Democrat party.
