Twatheads Twittering

[Yeti]

He blocked me (the day I pointed out his hypocrisy in sitting there silently while Hub called Richard Sherman a "thug" after he had spent the entire day before talking about "fearful white america's" racist reaction to Sherman) so I can't see his twitter feed, but has that holier-than-thou cockwallet tried to offer a "sorry I got caught" apology yet?

No

No

He did now. And now we get "DAT APOLOGY WASN'T ENOUGH". Whatever. I'm soft on Bernstein it seems, but I feel like we live in a lot of glass houses if we're mad at him for fawning over someone's tits/looks. He shouldn't have tweeted that about someone else in the media who is essentially a colleague, but get the fuck out of here if you are trying to take the higher road. We are all perverted pigs. It doesn't make it ok, but just admit it.

Your self-awareness is nice, but what Bernstein did is different than posts like this on our dark corner of the Internet. I'm sure you know that, of course, but it's still worth mentioning.

I actually kind of have a problem with the whole "oh we all have sexual thoughts about women and their boobs so you kind of have to forgive sexism." Whatever you think of a woman it's shockingly easy to not be a sexist asshole in a public forum. Like, really, really easy. The reason Bernstein deserves the shitstorm is he's spent such a long time appointing himself the moral arbiter/soapbox crusader that it's impossible to imagine him deciding a simple apology would be enough if someone he wanted to go after did the same. He deserves every bit of this.

You could probably count on one hand the number of intelligent things that guy has ever written or said.

I'm just glad he doesn't cover the Hawks any more.

So that would make tonight's lineup:

Fowler
Soler
Rizzo
Bryant
Castro
Coghlan
Castillo
Wood
Russell

...or, to put it another way, after the first time round:

Russell
Fowler
Soler
Rizzo
Bryant
Castro
Coghlan
Castillo
Wood

Lordy.

EDIT: Or, as it turns out, Denorfia instead of Coghlan.  Whatevs.

Can't believe the moment we've all been waiting for has arrived. Chris Denorfia's first start.

I've gone back and written him in, just to see what it looks like.

I haven't really had a problem with the pitcher hitting 8th, and I understand the logic behind it (with every inning after the first not playing out in general rules).... but I don't love Russell batting 9th. It's not because I don't like the Russell-Fowler-Soler-Rizzo-Bryant-Castro fun, but I don't really like the idea of sacrificing up to 70-80 PAs in a season by hitting Russell 9th. (That estimation came from a link I can't find. I remember reading something recently indicating that each drop in batting order nets a loss of 15-20 PAs over the course of a season)
