RIP Lou Brock
The Washington Post
Lou Brock, Cardinals great and MLB Hall of Famer, dies at 81
Michael Errigo
Baseball legend Lou Brock, a 15-year mainstay with the St. Louis Cardinals and a first-ballot Hall of Famer, died Sunday afternoon at 81, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The left fielder was a two-time World Series champion and a six-time all-star. He ranks second all-time in stolen bases (938), becoming the all-time leader in 1977 before Rickey Henderson passed him.
In 1979, Brock’s 19th year in the majors, he became the 14th player to join the 3,000-hit club and earned National League comeback player of the year honors. He retired at the end of that season and was inducted to the Hall of Fame in 1985.
Brock battled several medical conditions in recent years. His left leg was amputated in 2015 after an infection caused by complications from diabetes. In 2017, he was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a blood cancer.
Brock finished his career having played 2,289 games for the Cardinals, the second most in team history behind Stan Musial. He began his career with the Cubs but was traded to St. Louis in 1964 in a deal centered around pitcher Ernie Broglio.
“I guess that fewer than 2 percent of the people in baseball thought it was a good trade for us,” Cardinals third baseman Ken Boyer later said.
Four months after the swap, Brock helped the Cardinals capture the World Series title by batting .300 with a home run and five RBI in seven games against the New York Yankees. In 1967, he hit .414 and stole seven bases as the Cardinals beat the Boston Red Sox in seven games.
The trade is still viewed as one of the most lopsided in baseball history, with the phrase “Brock for Broglio” being used to signify an uneven transaction.
A constant threat on the base paths, Brock led the NL in stolen bases eight times while playing for St. Louis, including in 1974 at 35.
The Arkansas native was just the 20th player elected to the Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.
The Cubs and Cardinals held a moment of silence for Brock ahead of Sunday night’s game between the teams at Wrigley Field in Chicago.

God, family, nationalism, work, serving the self, earning one's keep, keeping what one earns, adhering to and defending an established social hierarchy, effortlessly handwaving away any perspectives and information one doesn't like, expecting a light at the end of the tunnel
If I had a low IQ like TDR or polecat I imagine I could live a very content life as a cookie cutter Drumpf worshipping conservative NPC
To be fair I read the list of things and thought that was basically what you view the function of governance and the social contract with each person and the state. God can mean benevolence on behalf of the state, family can mean personal beliefs, work can mean taxes etc
Most conservatives are boring people who actively try not to think outside of societal norms and are therefore boring and underachieving humans, and exactly the type the state wants to govern. I always thought it was interesting that Columbia has left and right wing guerilla (and even marxist-leninist groups) and both of them carry guns and traffic cocaine. "Progressivism" is such a weird word, nobody can really nail it down but it's being used as a slur for 1 world government/george soros/1 homogeneous population type of worldview which I don't think is accurate. Conservatives are usually the dumbest types of people too, and most of the kind I meet now used to be hard liberal before they realized there were problematic things about the modern liberal agenda so they became hard conservatives (without really knowing anything about it, or history) mostly out of hatred for liberals. It's really stupid. I just like personal/business freedoms to the nth degree and think the government should really only spend money on safety nets and social programs and don't really see a role for the government beyond that.
Most conservatives say they want small government until they hear about the idea of taking money from police budgets and lose their shit. These are the dumbest cucky types who really just think people in power are more deserving of everything than they are. Literally authoritarian cucks. I will never trust anyone who thinks taking money from the police and putting it into social programs is a bad idea. They will believe anything and are the dumbest people. There are some terrible SJW types on the left as well but most of them are young, naive and stupid, not old, evil and stupid like conservatives.

I figured this thread was a troll and idk now. Thats basically the worst reason ever just because you like the status quo of your burning divided failed state of a nation. Just don't vote or spoil you ballet instead. I have a friend who has voted in everything he could since he was 18 just to spoil the ballet and tell people to do thr same because at 50% in canada the election is null

No. I see why you like a lying fuck like Trump.
Obama signed that bro. And McCain played a big part in getting it through the Senate.
Matter of fact only 3 senators voted against it: Jeff Sessions R-AL, Bob Corker R-TN, Ron Johnson R-WI
3 republicans, because you know...they love the military so much

the reason they're pushing 5G isn't so much for the speed increase as it is to allow far more devices to connect to a single tower
it's almost a prerequisite for driverless cars, 'smart cities' and a bunch of other awful things

That's not by mistake. That's how they avoid making shit like healthcare more popular.
"Oh goy you want free healthcare? No problem, let me just package it with a platform of somali immigration and pedo-rights for you. Also I'll throw a serving of war in Iran on top, just for good measure."
