None of that tells us what a “two out lead” is. Do you know how to execute a “two out lead”??? ... let’s sleep on it and you can tell us tomorrow.

Actually, wide and deep tells you what a two out lead is. That's literally how they teach it in AAU ball.

Poll: is it an jerk move to pull out the W flag at another team’s stadium.

Its generally an jerk move to not pullout

Yes, but keep in mind these are people who can't tell you the names of more than 3 guys who played for the Cubs before 2005.

But they're diehard fans.

Actually, Cubs fans and Nationals fans are pretty interchangeable

Philly wins again as Harper is heating up. This is going to a long, unwatchable season.

A little more context: I communicated to a cubs fan that it was not nice to unfurl the flag in another team’s stadium. He did not agree and flapped it in my face. It escalated somewhat and my wife asked me to see what others thought.

You should have tried to break bad and gotten your ass kicked.

You are correct. It was bad form.  Keep a low profile in someone else’s house unless you are in a reserved section.  I might even root for the Cards over them. Anyway who brings a flag to a game?

First off, I think we're all surprised to see that someone married you.

Second, I think most of us would agree it's pretty freaking stupid to go fighting people over a silly flag.

Third, the people who go bragging about kicking people's asses are usually the ones who pick fights they can't win.

I don't see why it bothers people that they pulled out a flag. They won the game, flag or no flag.

I'm with the bad form crowd.    Depending on the amount of alcohol consumed would determine my response,    I might have taken the flag and thrown it or I might have ignored the dumbass.       I was baited heading to my seat on Friday by a young Cubbie drunk with his date.    I blew 'em off and the lady recognized it for what it was.
