You guys really ought to know when I’m joking by now. I’ve only been here for seven years

Steve Scalise being shot is something that you just shouldn't joke about though.

You're right, David Duke Without The Baggage being shot is something leftists should celebrate.

[Sestak]

Seriously, is there a box score anywhere?

Also Dems with Richmond are now like 7-1.

The Congressional Baseball Game should be replaced by a Congressional Basketball Game

Uh, you realize the Democrats are the ones with the black people, right? You must be a glutton for punishment.

Basketball is way popular than Baseball in Portland too and Portland is one of the Whitest cities so that stereotype is absolutely false.


In Portland and in fact vast majority of Oregon Basketball is the most popular sport among people of all ages and races

[America Needs a 13-6 Progressive SCOTUS]

this is a way higher score than usually occurs in Baseball.  Most of the time, the winning team gets about 3 points, and the losing team about 1 point.

OK cool.

Off-topic but how does it feel to be in the vast minority when it comes to your political views?

You need to remember that most of the people in Congress are not spring chickens.
They are middle-aged (some older), and the pace of basketball is too strenuous.
Softball/Baseball is perfect for these dinosaurs.

The Democrats only won because they bused in illegal immigrants to change the score.

The Democrats only won because they bused in illegal immigrants to change the score.

If you subtract the 3 million illegal players, the Republicans actually won in a landslide.

[100% pro-life no matter what]

The only year I was in attendance was the only year in recent memory the Republicans won:

Final score: GOP 8, Democrats 7

Tom Rooney hit a walkoff single to right field to win the game.  The GOP led 6-1 after 5 innings, but the Democrats took advantage of Republican errors to take the lead in the 6th, 7-6.  Then, in the bottom of the 7th (of a 7-inning game), the donkeys replaced star pitcher Cedric Richmond when he was in a jam, replacing him with Patrick Murphy.  With a runner on third and two outs in a 7-7 game, under a chorus of "Marco Rubio" chants from the GOP faithful, Murphy buckled and let Rooney be the hero.

CONTEXT: Marco Rubio had just announced the day before that he was running for re-election, significantly hurting Patrick Murphy's prospects of winning a Senate seat.

Wow. While overall that's small potatoes, in an event specifically designed to be a bi-partisan day away from politics, that chant was kind of a dick move.

There were chants going back and forth, but it certainly felt like more of a friendly rivalry than politics normally does.

If TRUMP was in the GOP team, they would have won big league. So. much. winning.

Trump once claimed to have been the best baseball player in New York City when he was a young man, at a time when Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays were playing there.

Please do not provide any input if you think it's a "point"

Also, 3-1 is a pretty low-scoring baseball game
