AI is no panacea for human judgment.

This is a big reason why any movement to do anything about this problem seems so difficult in society. We have abusers in the police and judicial system in charge of enforcing and enacting laws. We have abusers in the media reporting on high profile cases and allegations. We have abusers in our religious organizations…

Another infuriating, stark reminder that abusers don’t fit any specific profile, they’re everywhere. Apologies for apparently being one of the few commenters who don't find this funny.

I’m torn who to root for because fuck the Yankees, but also fuck the Umpires.  

One of the post-retirement benefits negotiated by the MLBPA is that if you like your steroid provider, you can keep it.

A reckless beaning is worse than trucking a catcher, given the circumstances.

And all the reporters there will tweet about the irony. And never have the balls to say it to his face. 

As a lifelong Astros fan, this has been tough to watch for Jake. He is a stand-up dude who plays hard 100% of the time. He’s a tall, big guy (6’4”, 220 lbs) who is one of our fastest base runners and routinely makes amazing plays in center field due primarily to his speed.

Burner name checks out. Glossing over the fact that you attempt to ascribe the writer’s comments that Marisnick is “ready for this to be over” to Marisnick himself, you’re just factually wrong.  He did apologize to Lucroy’s face. From the news reports: “‘I just kind of explained and apologized,’ Marisnick said, not…

I mean, throwing at someone is stupid as hell.

That’s fair enough, but given that Lucroy was concussed and had to have surgery to fix a broken nose, the Astros aren’t likely to receive much sympathy.

You’re not helping her.

I’ve always found the coverage of MMA here to be pretty solid and fair (from Wyman, Nathan, Patrick, etc.). They call shit out when they see it and don’t gloss over the uncomfortable reality of the business, including the terrible way the UFC treats their roster and the media, as well as the dangers of weight cutting…

God bless me with the overconfidence of a mediocre white head coach.

Well I like it!

It’s crazy that in a sport based on head kicks and choke outs the most dangerous part is the weight cut.

These people arnt in some ideological arena of ideas, theyre in the streets and in mosques and black churches with guns, and they’re oganizing online. They already lost the war of ideas, they are white ISIS, they can’t be reasoned with
