He also gave up 7 runs and lost his team the game.

I would so buy one right now if I had crazy rich person money. Maybe find a V12 to put in there, too. Yes, has to be a V12 for TEH CONCEPT.

This is why I hate office work and office *chairs*. Can never find one that's comfy.

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY

I wish I could give this 50 stars. For all the time that gets wasted with managers running out on the field, they could review a dozen plays.

Pound-head-against-wall logic like this is why we don't deserve high-speed rail. Nobody wants or proposes you take a train between LA and NYC or LA and Miami. Again, it's for distances of 600 or so miles max. After that, you stick with airplanes.

The usual ignorant "hurr, trains from NY to LA" response.

I can see right through that mask, Rod. Ain't fooling me.

Your proposal: "Yeah, let's ignore physics and invent magic and then spend billions on a project that won't make the system faster, safer, or more reliable."

Look, if you seriously can't figure out the pure dumb in your "oh just put rubber wheels on" idea, there is no point. You're not making up the rubber wheels part, I'm well aware those metro systems have been around. The "no infrastructure replacement part" of your plan is *not physically feasible.* I feel like I'm…

OK, you're making shit up now. I'm done getting trolled.

Oh for Pete's sake. OK, I'll make this quick. There's hundreds of miles of track, and hundreds of bogies to swap out. Alltogether the cost is billions, of money we don't have. You also can't just do a section of track. Because the IRT lines all share tracks at some point (other than the 7) you'd have to shut down…

You're really not thinking this through. Will all due respect, think harder. You're way, way, way, way, way...way, way, WAY oversimplifying this. I'm really hoping you stumble upon why you're proposing a completely unrealistic and awful idea. Other than the billions upon billions of dollars of cost.

This transmits a bit more juice than what your phone needs.

Initially, it'll probably cost a pretty penny. And then it won't because you're laying down wires. And maintenance is minimal since it's within the pavement. After test runs, it'll be fine.

What the guy below you said. Yes, let's spend billions upon billions to do that. Holy crap, man. I thought you were joking.

Did you seriously just recommend the MTA rip up hundreds of miles of track and replace trucks on hundreds of subway cars to make it a rubber-wheeled subway?

Nope. They still run. Because our state politicians are assholes who hate transit and keep stealing from dedicated transit funds.

But how will Bros let us know how manly and baller they are if they can't drive their house-sized Infiniti SUVs in the city? Won't someone think of the bros!

Driving into Manhattan is one of the single stupidest things a human being can do. It's too crowded, and no amount of parking lots will ever change the laws of physics. That being said, in the outer boroughs driving is mostly fine, unless you're on one of the larger avenues in Brooklyn or Queens.
