I still don't understand what Garcia did that was wrong. He got beaned because he pimped a HR in the ALCS…like what are we doing here. Celebrating is now "acting like a jack wagon"?

Nothing he did is objectively "wrong". But come on… pimpin a single, spiking the bat after a HR... I get that he is a Ranger and that's your team but can you see how that behavior rubs opposing fans the wrong way?

---

Explain Hector Neris. He has "been there before" unless you're going to tell me he's never recorded an inning ending groundout in the post season.

I'll hang up and listen.

Is Garcia still standing in the batters box admiring his off the wall single? AKA….Is Tucker still dribbling?

---

He only admired it so he could steal second on Martin "Ronald" McMoldonado.

The fact that he did it again and got a single off a shot off the wall is reason number one why stuff like that is stupid. And I know he stole second during the next at bat, doesn't change the fact that it is stupid.

Same thing as dropping the football right at the goal line. Yeah, you can do it and I guess there's nothing "wrong" with it, but the fact that there is a chance you might drop it before you cross the goal line and it can be ruled a fumble is a good reason why it's stupid to do actually do it in an important or close game.

But why would that make Astros fan upset? It has no effect on them whatsoever. This whole thing started because the pitcher didn't like how Garcia 'tossed his bat.' So instead of trying to strike him out, he throws a fastball at his back and then the benches clear. All because Garcia hyped a homerun in the ALCS. I feel like im having a stroke.

Lol it's absurd. My absolute favorite thing in ANY sport, is when an athlete talks ****, and backs it up. Larry Bird was a legendary trash talker and backed it up. Steph Curry shimmy's in front of the opposing team's bench MID SHOT before it goes in. Aaron Rodgers walks in to Soldier Field and literally tells Bears fans "I own you."

How is any of this NOT awesome? Garcia showboated, was aggressed upon and then went absolute ape**** on the astros. THATS WHAT LEGENDS DO and it rocks.

If you don't like it, then I don't understand why you even watch. Sports is emotional and watching athletes emote kicks ass.

I agree 100%, way more fun. Still hate Bautista though!

Baseball used to be about respect.

Those clinging to that see it as a microcosm for our society as a whole.

---

It's dudes trying to hit a ball with a stick while wearing pajamas. It's not that serious.

---

Seriousness is different that being respectful.

I don't drag my ***** across someone's face just because I bettered them at something. That's a huge part of what is hurting the way our society thinks. It's all about owning and embarrassing anyone who you go up against (physically or politically or whatever).

But if you do want to drag your ***** across someone's face when you better them, then don't be a baby about a getting a fastball off your giant elbow pad.....because that is about 10" lower than you deserve.

---

lol wait, did i miss something? where did someone 'drag their dick' across someone's face?

---

Yes, Adolis drug his dick on everyone in Houston's face.

There y'all go again. You are new to this. See….that's the difference. F-Around and find out. Only when you are the respected can you do that. Know your place.

What place are we in now? F around and find out huh?

It's tough being on the losing end of a big game. Ranger fans just need to keep in mind that someday they'll be on top, and the Astros will be looking up at them.

Ah who am I kidding? That's never happening.

Ahhhhahahahaaaa.

Karma's a *****. Never say never.

Stop trying to get under his skin….

We're witnessing what might wind up being the greatest individual postseason in MLB history from Garcia. The guy is destroying anything near the strike zone. Texas still has to win three more, but, man, what a show.
