On Logic and Barry
easily apparently i’ve gone out and disarranged someone, noticeably possibly ticked them off. that’s striking, often times during a discussion individuals let their passion and opinion trump inferential. yesterday i reviewed an article over at the hardball times. an article which seemed to ruffle a bunch of feathers and unvarying got ‘voted down’ at ball hype (something i have personally never seen from a tht article). that said, there was a bloody interesting discussion at ball hype in regards to this column. about 10 people chimed in with responses to the article, on the contrary a man of whom was truly agreeing with the author (although i recognize that people are more likely to address up when they disagree then when they agree).the author of that piece decided to ding-dong in himself, disregarding many of the comments made and shutting down only those that he can illogically skew - albeit, these were the ordinary rejections that are met with this discussion.the discussion at hand is, why did teams refuse to sign barry bonds? the author believes there is a righteous honest explanation, although it doesn’t conduct much weight when you break it down (something i will do later).what i am writing about is a few issues i induce with the authors rejection of logic.first, the author ignores the cases in which baseball has turned its intention to ‘bad behavior’. between the message board at baseball think factory (i encourage you to flip through them, it is a gigantic and well-informed discussion) and at ball hype, there are mentions of a parallel between pacman jones and elijah dukes.while pacman jones is clearly not a model citizen, elijah dukes isn’t really reeking of parental consent - although truth be told, i take it for granted dukes doesn’t care. not being one to typically dive into the intimate lives of the sport i cuddle, a list inform at ball hype states,”baseball sure likes to pick and choose its high-minded battles, then…drunk driving is a much greater evil than steroid use. and do you really put one’s trust in that anyone would hesitate picking up urbina if he weren’t in prison?”isn’t that the gloomy actually. i judge back to a story when milton bradley asked a police officer if he knew who bradley was. this invariably led to bradley leaving the indians, but in the halfway point of baseball’s situated season, we consult with bradley is an individual of the most sought after unengaged cause outfielders. more so then accomplish records of adam dunn, pat burrell, and bobby abreu.or how about when baseball’s ethical geezer, albert pujols, was named in jason grimsley’s affidavit? how speedily was that brushed aside by baseball? how diverse reporters jumped on that story discrediting pujols for his miraculous climb up baseballs ladder?the author then turns this morality issue on an axis, providing factually pass examples. only such example, “basketball refuses to do anything about pot use, because it would decimate the collaborate.”decimate the combination? i be sure we hear some about marijuana issues in the nba, but of the 500+ players in the nba, are there more then 10 arrests a year? i funds, how many nbaers played in the olympics? how many of them have tested positive for marijuana? were those not most of the best players the nba has?at worst, i’d say marijuana use in the nba is worth monitoring, but extremely the present from being a root to ‘decimate’ the league. i’d say std’s have a change one’s mind shot at doing that.the next error, “has any baseball team continually tolerated the number of criminals, or even a mini portion of same, accumulated by the bengals of recent vintage?”answer, no. bravo! but i would delight in to more distant my replication with a question to the authors ask: has any other football cooperate ev
