Let's try something new.
If you don't agree with someone and you respond that they are 'insufferable'
Just leave it be. Move on. There's zero reason to be responding if that is all you got.
People can disagree, and I welcome debate on differing BASEBALL opinions. We are getting to the point of crossing lines, and you all know it.
If you want people to 'stick to baseball' and then continually comment on a non-baseball thing, that's just on you. MOVE ON, you don't have to reply.
If you are going back and forth with someone and your response is, 'They did it to me, so I did it to them,' just stop. That's childish.
If you don't like a person, there is zero need to reply or respond to them. ZERO. I've slipped on it becasue I gave you guys the benefit of a doubt.
Don't make me start banning people, because I feel it's close.
The much expected pitchers duel of
*checks notes
Domingo German and Andrew Heaney.
