Meet Toronto Blue Jays’ pitcher Anthony Bass. Anthony is at present in the midst of a $3 million deal, however that apparently doesn’t enable him to get his pregnant spouse some assist whereas she travels with their two young children. Check out this current submit Bass placed on Twitter knowingly and of his personal free will.
Pretty tone deaf, contemplating how down-sized flight attendants and airline employees have been because the pandemic, and that airline cleansing crews, which can or might not have the prospect to scrub your airplane earlier than you board, could make as little as $24,000 per 12 months.
So enable me to take a second to sympathize with Bass’ spouse. I’ve made a cross-country journey with two young children (three and 18 months on the time), and doing it alone utterly sucks. Hats off to all the one mother and father on the market. Kids this age make messes as simply as they breathe, someway managing to throw issues round that you simply weren’t even conscious of them possessing. They appeal to chaos in all its kinds. And I even reduce Bass a bit of slack on this one. We all take to Twitter to vent infrequently, justified or not. I’ve completed it. You’ve completed it. All it takes for us to chill down is a couple of sympathetic replies, individuals telling you that they agree that what occurred to you was the best injustice on the planet, after which it’s over.
But right here’s the place Bass, who has “Christian” proper up prime of his Twitter bio, went means over the road:
So Bass is out right here making an attempt to get somebody who undoubtedly makes so much much less cash than he does for a a lot extra annoying job, disciplined at finest and fired at worst. All as a result of he doesn’t assume his spouse ought to have to scrub up after his children. And he simply retains doubling down and tweeting by means of it.
A traditional particular person would see that an enormous proportion of individuals have been telling him he was fallacious, and stand down. But not Anthony Bass! He’s out right here thanking the (only a few) individuals who supported him and making an attempt to get an over-worked flight attendant in hassle.
This is the place I let you know that, for all Anthony’s sturdy opinions on what flight attendants ought to and shouldn’t do, he sucks at his job much more. Bass’ ERA is at present 7.11, and his WAR is -0.2. So he ought to positively be taking pictures his mouth off about how nicely another person does their job. And that’s when Twitter consumer @e_munson stepped up and have become the hero we would have liked:
Only a Mets fan may clap again with this quantity of sheer darkness. God Bless New York.
