Dare I ask

How in the fack did the discussion of politics end up flooding the penalty box? I haven't checked here in a while and I came looking for the more astute of our fine group only to find chaos and type written drivel. I was searching for knowledge on whether to trust Mad Max to get over 4.5 strikeouts. Should I go to the help section to find the consensus. Please advise. 

Tough call Johnny. 

There is an MLB betting forum in which baseball games and props are frequently discussed. 

Politics has flooded the Penalty Box because that’s the way they do it across the street in their “Saloon” Forum.  
Across the street has also terminated many long time contributors from posting and I don’t know why.  
A guess would be they might be trying to clean up before they sell off the site?  Or maybe it’s already been acquired by women with balls.

 My brother, I have enjoyed the banter of some fine people in this section. All or most of the other sections, not the horse racing section, remind me of a petri dish in a mad scientists' lab. Bizquick, placed the wager on the over 4.5. Good luck to all!! 

Got you. I say under 4.5. I do not see him lasting long. This is not 2017 Nationals, especially still coming back from injury. Actually surprised they are starting him game 7. 

Good luck to you though. 

Unless you are a politician, your political influence consists of just an individual vote. Those who try marketing their opinion are almost always so slanted to one side or the other that only the public idiocies will follow. 
The party of Common Sense is yet to evolve
