Should NFL teams hack headsets? No. Should teams be using tech to steal signs? No. I can recall murmurs and grumbling about visiting team headset outages in the NFL, but no outright headset hacking. We've had plenty of examples of teams using tech to steal signs, though.
My overall beef with the MLB is that it doesn't seem to care about rule enforcement. They let shit go until they have absolutely no choice but to publicly address it. The MLB front office is the least proactive and most reactive front office in all of sports and the most mismanaged front office in all of sports. It's your absolute prerogative as a fan to come in here and sling shit in Astro fans' faces for cheating. By all means. But do so with the honest realization that this was a league-wide problem, not an Astros problem. The ridiculous pearl clutching over all of this is insane. Jomboy wants to start buzzer conspiracy theories when the Red Sox were using actual buzzers through Apple watches. People want to call the Astros the worst cheaters in baseball history but the Cardinals literally committed a federal crime to cheat by hacking.
What I have been saying in this thread is that baseball fans and pitchers need to let this go. You got your licks in, you can throw your mental asterisk on the 2017 trophy, go with God. But the Astros are going to get tired of being whipping boys on this. The fact that the front office gave the Astros blanket immunity and issued zero punishment after their investigation should be a huge red flag to the fan base of the entire league. The Astros and the front office made a deal. Why? I think we know why. The pitchers aren't happy with it. Delusional baseball fans who overly romanticize the game and sit at home with their glove in their lap and actively score the game with a pencil and paper aren't happy with it. Joe Kelly wasn't happy with it, obviously, and the MLB wasn't happy with Joe Kelly because every time somebody does that shit, we have to talk about rampant cheating in the MLB going unpunished. Again.
