Hinch had to know. If they truly banged on a trash can in the tunnel of the dugout, that's pretty obvious. I can't believe fans or other teams didn't inquire about that.

Investigation determined it was player driven and that Alex Cora was the only coaching party to it.

How can the manager not hear "banging on a trash can" during the game yet the batter can? I wouldn't think they suspend him for a year without some culpability. MLB also had to know that a firing was possible with that type of punishment.

Neither were actually involved from what I’m reading.

Manfred's statement is very straightforward, said Luhnow claims no knowledge but probably had at least some awareness and at the very least made no efforts to ensure compliance after Manfred served notice to all teams on the topic in September '17. Hinch didn't participate and didn't like it but fully knew it was happening and did nothing to stop it. He could have just said "cut it out" and it would have ended.

Also, when the Red Sox investigation is over, Alex Cora is absolute toast. He orchestrated and ran the whole sign stealing operation as bench coach in Houston and then apparently did it again when he became the Red Sox manager.

I’ve been watching these videos all afternoon. This guy says Florida filed a 63 million dollar lawsuit against him 😂. Then they dropped it and started threatening his life. Now Clemson insiders started threatening him because he brings so much information.

I want someone to make a dedicated thread to this guy. I’m definitely listening to that Podcast BTW

I seem to miss all the info he’s dropping. I just catch the vid about the info he’s gonna drop and all the hate he’s getting for it. He always out of breath which is due to the FBI and recruiting services being after him I think.

My initial theory is he’s on house arrest because he’s always inside and appears to be off his schizophrenia meds.

The best argument for the Manning v. Brady debate is the season result when both were out. When Brady got hurt, Cassell took them to the playoffs. When Manning got hurt, I believe the Colts won 2 games. I heard someone say that Peyton should have won the MVP that year because it was a clear sign that he led that team.

Pats didn’t make the playoffs that year and went 3-4 against teams that finishes + .500.

Seems a trivial thing but this affects recruits. That lil extra achieves that extra sell imo. Fulmer delayed already approved Neyland upgrades to pay coaches and ramp up the accouterments to increase the talent level. Keeps proving those of us (including me) that thought he wouldn’t immediately be the right guy for the job.

Never been a manager so I don’t know what ambient noises would attract their attention. Personally feel the wrong people got punished but don’t have enough crapeth to give on the subject and don’t feel like going to Costco...bowing out.

He has faith. He’s also a human being like is all who can fail just like King David did. He’s not Joel Osteen who is making a buck while promoting something that seems more for money rather than reaching people but I am not the judge to make the final call on him. Dabo believes it and wants to talk about his faith and it’s been positive and not finger pointing. JMO but if we have to put up with so many who bash faith then why not let others promote it.

Yeah, I get this everytime I call BS on Dabo and that's fine. As long as everyone understands I'm not going stop.
Not as long as kids are jamming fingers in the backside of rivals and calling it "their culture" and others are flaunting their payoffs

Yeah, we're all human. But when you keep repeating those actions for gain, it becomes something I despise.
Smart on his part, no doubt. Other coaches get called out for their tactics but he automatically becomes off limits. I don't call out faith. I call out the above actions happening between his sermons. There's a distinct difference.

The Astros went ahead and fired both already.

Wow. Cora is toast then. I know it’s another sport entirely, but could you imagine Kraft firing Belichick over cheating? They’ve already had offenses and it means nothing it’s a joke. That being said, even with the strict punishments do you guys think it will stop teams from continuing to try to cheat if it means winning a title? Houston just showed you can cheat and win a World Series and not get the title taken away and nothing will happen to the players.

The only major complaint I’ve seen on here and from other fan bases that travel here to see a game.Only complain about the bathrooms ..what other upgrades are needed?
