No. While Grid can be over the top at times and values his own opinion a liiiiiittle too much, he takes razzing fairly well and does have a good sense of humor. El abogado de Ohio, effay cinco? Not so much. Grid is Bill Burr, Bert Kreischer and Mitch Hedberg rolled into one compared to him.

Reading a statement and no questions? Might as well have the lawyers read what they wrote.

Did you actually think he was going to take questions and possibly be trapped into saying something?

He's going to admit he's really Satoshi, the creator of bitcoin

4. It's less about being right or wrong and more so that everything is always an argument.
5. I don't know. I usually vibe with him.
In my opinion, the Blowout Crime Investigators who take the few facts we know, some logical assumptions, and throw in a heavy dollop of wild speculation and baseless accusations then pass it off as fact are much worse.

…but that’s just me.

Considering Buffi has already gone on record (in the Arch Manning thread) as saying he "doesn't have time to read your threads"—I wouldn't be surprised if it did.

Again . . .

He can be the League & Hobby darling, and also a degenerate gambler with an awful addiction. Both can true. . .

Let's just accept that and move on with our lives.

As I'm sure you're also aware, the simplest explanation is often the correct one.

- Ohtani covers debts
- He and Ippei both claim that to be fact
- Ohtanis team realizes this is illegal, and having no other leg to stand on, fabricate a lie that the money was stolen from Ohtani, and that he never had knowledge to any gambling whatsoever


Even SIMPLER explanation

-Ohtani is gambling addict
-Ippei tries to cover for him by saying Ohtani covered HIS bad debts
-Repeat step 3 from above

The way you're trying to paint it is that nothing happened at all, because nothing is proven beyond reasonable doubt at this point so everyone just move along, nothing to see here.


I'll ask again sir, HOW MUCH DO YOU HAVE INVESTED IN OHTANI?! MAY I REMIND YOU YOU'RE UNDER OATH!


Strange initial question give how clear I've been about waiting for proof rather than making assumptions.

And the rest of this is fraught with so many logical fallacies, I don't know where to begin.

I've done nothing in this thread but call out people presenting speculation as fact. If that bothers you, maybe you are the problem. I don't really care if you like me. Those who take the time to get to know me do. Those who choose to judge me based on some arguments on a message board with people who obviously have no interest in the truth, but would rather be "right" with their theories, more power to you.

In the BO justice system, athletes are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the believers, who believe anything their hero says; and the doubters, who speculate on partial facts and information. These are their stories.

I am not going to even bother watching the press conference.

He will just repeat what the latest we have already been told. We will learn nothing.

JV7 isn't afraid to throw behind the batter!

Ok, I'm starting to feel things out now.

No pint at having a press conference either. Statement could have been issued via online news release by the Dodgers.

On a side note, Ohtani picked the perfect team to play for considering he is dodging questions.
