Sure it does. Swinging for the fences with two strikes makes more sense when it’s easier to go dong, but also increases strike outs.

Unlike the baseball, however, your wife’s seams are looser than ever.

I dont’ know, depends on what you think is exciting baseball. Don’t get me wrong, homers rule, but there is something to be said for the 2-1 pitcher’s duel or a 4-3 game with no homers but lots of baserunners and crisp defense. I like homers, but I also love the 4-6-3 double play. 

Here’s a great example. As a neutral…

Not surprising: The record-setter was hit in an Orioles game.

Harper has hit 31 homers so far this season. That was once an impressive accomplishment. Now it’s a middling amount of homers for a power hitter in this league.

You make it sound as easy as just snapping your finger. Quite the gauntlet you’ve thrown. 

I ain’t watching that thing, are their any Centaurs?

He got three because Shaq had two.

There should be some sort of a limit on the number of NBA players who can simultaneously co-opt Superman as their alter ego/muse/inspiration.

🎶you’re looking at the man, in the mirror,

I myself have a life size replica of Michaelangelo’s David but with my head.I’d tell you how many paintings I have or me of as Superman but I don’t want to brag.

Sometimes when I look in the mirror I don’t like what I see...

It would take me roughly half a second to say yes. 

In the four minute video, we’re shown three different paintings of Dwight Howard as Superman.

It’s funny, but I challenge each and every one of you to go look in the mirror, ask yourself “if I could have a Thanos Land Rover without consequence for what to me is essentially pocket change, would I?” and then answer yourself truthfully.

To this day my favorite bit of lore about Super Bowl XXV is that it’s the Super Bowl that got Paul Zimmerman (Sports Illustrated’s “Dr. Z”, for those whose memories go way back) kicked out of the voting pool for Super Bowl MVP. He got kicked out because he wouldn’t let up on how awesome Thurman Thomas was in that…

I agree with your general point, but I’ve got to take exception to your characterization of what Belichick did to the K-Gun. The Bills’ offense scored 17 points in 19 minutes in Super Bowl XXV, and Thurman Thomas looked like Tecmo Bo in that game. It wasn’t Belichick’s D that won that game, but rather the Giants’…

I look forward to them losing 9-6 in Super Bowl LIV.

this offense will be a high-flying thrill-a-minute fun-fest until the Cowboys come to Foxboro and Belichick pitilessly disembowels it, like the K-Gun and Greatest Show on Turf and Sean McVay’s Marionette Show before it

I was really torn as I was following the game. For me, there’s something really likable about Dak Prescott and I’m glad to see him flourish under the new system. Also the team looked pretty exciting and it will be really fun to see where they go from here.
