Slugger Shavings 2046.06 - OK we're done (with TN, not the league)

Post by sjshaw » Sun May 02, 2021 3:44 pm

LOU officials awarded Player of the Year honors to 3B Luis Mendoza, who finished 2nd on the team in AVG, HR, and RBI, and 1st in WAR with 8.3.

Rumors of an organization-wide talent purge are echoing around the locker room, but Mendoza has been assured he will remain a "Slugger-for-Life," much like Commie Child and Stan Palacios and Ronnie Hubbard before him.

I think that’s too short to be considered a valid TN ;) :D

Actually, that's true. Maybe throw in a few more stats.

I know it’s true Aaron, I don’t make negative comments these days if I can help it but sometimes people have just got to play to the standards. Our standards make the league what it is, the history is really important. If we don’t make the history, we don’t make the league

See, this alludes to a point I am trying to make. Why bother shoving out a bunch of articles for them to be at best ignored, or at worst, derided?

How does this add value to the league?

How does it add value to the league by not writing anything?

For a moment, I was puzzled by what your beef with Tennessee might be.

I'm not spending more time writing articles than absolutely minimally necessary. I spent a lot of time writing preseason position previews for a few seasons only to have them completely ignored. I gain no joy from writing them. If nobody cares, then they're busy work. I'm too old for busy work.
