Some folks are in my mentions blaming these players for going to Venezuela like they are reckless tourists or something. Stop it.
Venezuela is where they were born and raised and continue to live in the offseason and where their family and friends also live. We bombed their home.

Too many times, when I get on an airplane, I blindly put my trust in the professional pilots, the so-called, “experts” in the cockpit, and not the guy in 14C reading a John Grisham book or his napping wife in the sweatshirt with a tiger on it.
That ends now. This, the year I die in a plane crash.
