Gamethread... M's v Padres.... Dipoto showcases trade chip

White officers shouldn't shoot a black man in the back. Or anyone in the back. I saw the video... and I saw Jacob Blake just walk away and get into his SUV. I realize the bells & whistles that must have set off. But c'mon, tackle and taze the guy. Where's your training??? Or follow the guy and arrest him later. Any sane person could have seen that something was seriously wrong there. I will miss tonight's game. Dammit, I wanted to see how our young guys could hold up against this ace.

Good God you're a clueless idiot.

... and you're a little bit impulsive and immature.

I post something that calls for thought and discussion. And you react like a dumb teenager.

I don't think bpj and I get along...

Sheesh, we should be an hour into the game... and calling players out for swinging at a low and outside pitch.

The problem here is the use of excessive force. Cops don't need to shoot a guy 7 times in the back at point blank range.

Three questions. If he was only shot once or twice, would this happen anyway? If he wasn't shot and grabbed the knife or the gun he was possibly be going for and killed the cops or the kids, would this happen? If he was white, would this happen?

I wonder how long without sports before even people like us realize we don't need it?

This was like an execution. Too bad this stupid cop had to ruin it for people in this country.

You can act like your statements were soapbox worthy, but your bullshit didnt warrant discussion. They should have shot his dumbass in the face when he fell over. You don't do that shit to a cop. That's why.

It's painfully obvious your a riot supporting little twat.

God damn, athletes are idiotic saps.

Maybe instead of getting mad about "police brutality," get mad about a guy getting himself shot by doing everything wrong.

Hey violent wanted criminals, I have a tip for you:. When the cops are telling you to stop, when they've already tased you, maybe don't ignore them and reach into your car.

Written like a true snowflake.

OK, well now that MLB has decided to become "woke," I'm pretty much done with them. You guys have fun, but I've had it with this shit. Bunch of babies!

Agreed, unfortunately the Mariners young players are among the leagues wokest, led by supreme leader Dee.
