Steen, just so you know I'm reading amigo :- ) ... this particular accusation,
++ And I know for a fact you'd side with sports idealist and their silly usage of correct/incorrect over the moneyed parasites that are the George Argyros of the world. How does that square? ++
1. How can you predict my opinions for a fact?
.........
2a. Here, you "knew a fact" that was not the case.
For example, I don't indiscriminately hate rich white people. I tend to admire self-made zillionaires like Argyros. My whole F-500 thing is, in a way, attempt to create "sympathy for the devil." In a liberal city that automatically resents super-successful "moneyed parasites."
2b. Sometimes I side with Rich, White, and Male; sometimes I don't. I take it on a case-by-case basis.
2c. In my experience, many liberals side with whoever is NOT richer, or whiter, or more male, and do so automatically. I find "automatic" loyalty, whether in Kansas or New York, a sad thing.

Regulars will wonder why Dr. D is engaging this apparent attempt to troll. To me, these issues -- academic self-superiority (such as at Field Gulls and Fangraphs), class hatred and warfare ("moneyed parasites", etc -- are fascinating in themselves.
Dr. D tries hard to avoid politics, but sometimes he can't resist. :- )
