Angrier than ever about the astros garbage now
-
The commisioner has come out and said HE FAILED. He called the World Series trophy a PIECE OF METAL. How incompetent can they be? The most OBVIOUS AND FAIR thing to do is vacate the 2017 world series. This isnt going away until they re-address it. Players are fuming, other teams in the league are fuming, and people are walking out on the sport again. I seriously dont get it

He’s a wimp, plain and simple. As spineless as they come. Goodell is loving all this, knowing for once he isn’t the most hated commissioner in the country.
He’s so clueless that he doesn’t realize the things he says just make people more and more upset. Nothing but sheer incompetence.
Players won’t let this go until a title gets vacated, or players get banned.
And telling teams “Hey, don’t hit these guys pretty please” isn’t going to do anything. Bring on the concussions. They deserve the worst.
If Manfred cares so much about the safety of Astros players, he’d punish them himself before they get hurt. But it’s too late for that now.

Does it really matter if they vacate it or not? There is always going to be an asterisk, so in a sense, it is sort of taken away.
Butttttttttt also, yeah the commissioner is a clown

Ken Griffey Jr for comish.

The commissioner is in a tough spot. Can't take the title away and can't suspend anyone because of the immunity/players association. Just like Bud S. couldn't take away the roid user's stats/records/awards.

Agreed but calling the title a peice of metal shows hes out of touch, thats an insulting comment.

Yes it does. If they vacate it, it either goes to LA or there is no winner.

More than likely no winner. It would be hard to justify giving it to the dodgers over the Yankees, and vice versa.

I would agree.

The moment he said please let’s move on to other topics I knew he was scared and unprepared the interview was about 1 topic no one cares about tickets for a game in the summer.

Go Astros! Go! Go! Go! You rule. Haters be hating regardless. Five million plus a few draft picks and two expendable personnel for a world championship.....what franchise isn't going to make that deal. GO ASTROS!
-
So why should the Astros vacate and not the Red Sox?
-
They ain't vacating the title
. That series went 7 games with 4 at Dodgers stadium with the Astros winning it there. Is the commish a psy? Yup. Should he step down? Definitely. Aclown is clueless about baseball and believes the way to get fans is to move the mound back 2 feet

I agree. This commissioner is a pu55y. If you use steroids, rightfully so, you get suspended and most not put in the hof. Know what pitch is coming and get absolutely nothing. At the bare minimun the 2017 WS should have been vacated and at least some kind of suspension for the players.
The players will police this. Problem is this joke of a commissioner will address Astros players getting plunked at some point. Therefore, making the pitchers look like the bad guys instead of the clowns that cheated.
Also like seeing these players on top of lists like the top 100 and 10 best at their position. Do we even know how good they really are? I expect players stats to certainly fall some.

I could'nt agree more with most everyone on here! This IS NOT going away. They are CHEATERS!!! Vile scum of the first order!!! They should be banned forever!!! Pete Rose NEVER cheated!!!! He bust his freakin tail as hard as he could EVERY play and he's not allowed in the Hall. The Cheaters........get no punishment whatsoever?!?!!??!?!? I understand the problem with the union and I don't care!! The union can't possibly condone cheating!!! If I'm Tony Clark, I turn my back on these losers!!! Let the beaning begin!!!
