    I texted Stokes to check on his status

    Response I got was that he was dead and a Russian Hooker cut his thumb to access his iPhone.

    He is still alive and rocking.

    Stokes is now a grandfather. Saw the picture of his granddaughter. I wish Stokes' wife was still alive and saw her.

    She is precious little baby. I got emotional. Asked Stokes permission to share.

    Please don’t post pictures of people’s grandkids. This place is just north of unbearable with philly stacks as it is.

    What about junc? Can we bring him and Stokes back only under the restriction that they are locked in a thread together?

    This is an example of how "social distancing" can be a good thing

    Stokes isn’t banned. His second account Rollo Tomassi isn’t banned either. He is just a dick. He isn’t coming back.

    junc on the other hand is banned. Unless Petro forgives him he is not coming back. But even if Petro openned his ban junc would still not come imo.

    Junc is like a child that gets in trouble and loses desert, but when they are offered it back refuse to have it to pretend they didn’t want it anyways so taking it away meant nothing to them to begin with.

    Looking past the pandemic - which is an amazing sentence to type...
    If everything went as planned and somehow this season in Arizona was feasible, how big are the rosters? 40 man roster? 26 active with 14 in reserve? I ask because there doesn’t seem to be an accompanying minor league plan. There are going to be injuries, especially after an on again and off again Spring Training. When player X goes on the Injured List (refusing to name player X based on the Yankees insane recent injury history and not wishing to jinx anyone) who comes up to replace him? I’m guessing someone from that 14 man reserve. Does a new minor league player or someone not on a roster come on to fill the void as the new 40th man?

    Injuries and roster management could be a complete debacle – even in a 7 inning format. And I don’t know that a doubleheader necessarily lessens that potential for roster carnage.

    And again…all of this is gleefully looking past an ongoing pandemic. There are endless projections out there but the last I saw for Arizona showed an apex around the first of May. The apex doesn’t mean May 2nd is free and clear for spread. This plan seems hopeful. And completely half baked.

    What about those guys who tried to take over the board, or were sabotaging this one or something a few years ago? They started their own board or something? Any news on those losers?

    Also, the other decent messageboard that got bought out by scout--wtf happened with them. Going down memory lane here.

    Hi my friend. Don’t really know much about the ones who tried to take over the board. That happened when I was a big newbie on the board. I wish them well. I hope they are happy where they are. I think Stokes is hanging with them.

    Scout buried that other site. I didn’t know much about that place honestly. We don’t need another Jets board when we have the wonderful TGG
