article the other day about the art of sign stealing
Not sure what that article said but I don’t consider sign stealing in it’s purest form to be even remotely close to cheating.

this is the part i don't understand and i am not in any way defending the astros.
if a runner on second base can see the signs and signals back to the batter that is okay, but a situation where the astros were using the monitors or the giants using a telescope back in the 50's is wrong because they are using outside devices?
I wouldn’t say that it’s “OK” but it definitely isn’t “cheating”. And do it at your own risk because the hitter is taking the next pitch off his head if you get caught. Beyond that it seems like a very obvious difference to me between the two scenarios. Like if I’m walking down the street and there’s a hot chick standing topless in the window and I take a look that seems perfectly OK to me as opposed to me sitting in a parked car with a telescope looking into sorority house windows.
outside devices?
Are they adding bleachers in the outfield? That looks ridiculous. Keep Dodger Stadium symetrical.
You figured it out

so should i expect leo to be expelled from the hof anytime soon?
Not sure who you're arguing with, but assume it's an Astros fan making the case that a runner at 2nd base stealing signs is no different than what the Astros did.I wouldn’t say that it’s “OK” but it definitely isn’t “cheating”.
