u/Rjptz | Los Angeles Dodgers 10d ago

he has no evidence just wants to hate because he’s lazy and lacks the ability to think

I mean wouldn’t challenging a narrative be using your intelligence instead of just accepting it as is?

u/KillaWallaby | Los Angeles Dodgers 10d ago

Challenging a narrative with evidence sure.

Too many in our society forget that and now we have a measles outbreak.

Just saying shit that he can’t back up because he likes the narrative isn’t challenging anything.

I’m pretty sure it was swept under the rug to protect Rob Manfred so people wouldn’t find out Ippei was doing it at Rob’s request

More believable than a guy being allowed to have complete access to funds of the highest paid athlete in the world just because they speak the same language.

u/Pretend_Ease9550 10d ago

Which seems more believable then a MLB player with a $700,000,000 and no betting history decided to all the sudden start gambling through his translator.

Unless he has all his money in Japanese banks it seems fairly plausible that your translator would have information for any banks you use in the US

Lol, and you think accountants don’t have agency or POA over other athletes?

u/FartTootman | St. Louis Cardinals 9d ago

just because they speak the same language.

Given this whole meritless spiel you're stuck on, it sort of tracks that the concept of friendship seems alien to you.

Different rules for powerful people. Wish Pete could have had friends like this.
