He even says she looked under 16, the age of consent in Pennsylvania. I'm glad he is being forthcoming on all of this, as it makes the process easier and cheaper for tax payers, but I'm surprised he so freely admits to everything, including knowing the girl's age and that she was under the legal age of consent. His professional life and his freedom for a good long while are now gone, all because while I'm sure he could have hooked up with any number of adults, he decided hooking up with a 13 year old was a good idea.

Felipe Vazquez faces possible deportation if convicted of the sex crime charges brought forth against him.
Vazquez is charged with computer pornography, solicitation of a child, and one count of providing obscene material to minors. Louise Radnofsky and Jared Diamond report that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement are tracking the charges. They also report that deportation could become difficult because of the unstable relationship between The United States and Venezuela; namely president Nicolas Maduro. Vazquez is currently on administrative leave while the investigation into the charges continue.

The Pirates have fired manager Clint Hurdle after nine seasons. I thought the Pirates liked having a "yes man" who agreed with everything that the owner and GM did.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

Regarding Vasquez and the underage girl, i'm hearing that the PA State Police are investigating other Pirate players who were photographed with the girl. So, there may be more to that story.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

Local radio says that Pirates broadcaster and former player John Wehner is one of the internal candidates for the vacant manager job.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

Worst franchise in baseball?If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.
