#asterisks — Public Fediverse posts

If by some minor #miracle the #gods of #baseball decide to smile upon us #Dodgers fans and the #World #Series is held between the #BoysinBlue and the #Asterisks sorry I mean the #Asstros pardon me I mean the #Astros then every single garbage can needs to be removed from their clubhouse.

I do pray to #SaintVincent with the golden voice and #SaintThomas guardian of the pearly gates to get into the #Blue #Heaven for this to pass.

Edit: On a good note, the Astros are out of the playoffs.

So we’re supposed admire #McGuire because he came clean? No! He cheated, as did #Sosa when they stole the #Maris record of 61. They along with #Bonds and all the other players who used PEDs have records that are tainted. #Asterisks for all.
And just because people turned a blind eye to #PED use doesn’t make it right.
All is not forgiven.
Yes it was a magical season. I remember following it all summer, but we as fan (at least I) didn’t know that players were juicing.
