This is pretty jagged.

That’s ridiculous. You should change who you are as a player if the defense has taken away what has worked. How much does slapping one softly down the 3rd base line change who you are as a player. You do that 4 times a game and they’ll stop doing it. Meanwhile.....you’re getting on base 4 times every single game until…

Exactly. So frustrating. No one can bunt anymore either. If some of these guys worked on it more, they could force the opponent to abandon the shift. It baffles the mind how horrible these guys are at bunting (especially in the AL).

I would think the best way to combat dipping averages in a shift-happy league is for pull hitters to learn how to take it the other way (which would in turn soften the radical shifts against them). But as many former players have noted on a daily basis on MLB Network, hitters are creatures of habit, and will be…

There already is a defined rule to staying mostly sober at parties- 1 drink/hour. That is a relaxed drinking pace that will keep most people sober enough to not be weird. My office holiday party lasts ~4 hours, I’m not drinking 2 drinks over 4 hours, unless I’m planning to get up and go the gym at 5AM the next day.

Alcoholic: a person suffering from a condition when a person ingests [alcohol and] the continued use/act of which becomes compulsive and interferes with ordinary life responsibilites such as work, relationships or health.

Nah, the alcoholic is the guy who needs a strict rule on the amount he allows himself to drink.

Dude, I can’t believe people are trying to call you an alcoholic and just wanted to say I totally agree with you. This article is judgemental as hell and basically says that everyone who has more than two drinks becomes a tiresome drunk that you can look down on as you sip your glass of water and then smugly go home.…

Um, no?

So why should I stick to just two? You don’t really say why just that I should only have two while being socially awkward about it. If I need to drive or be somewhere early the next day then yes stick to one or two but if I have a ride/taxi/uber and everyone else is drinking and enjoying themselves why would I stick…

No one in this story got shot, eaten by an alligator, or busted for methamphetamine distribution, so I fail to see how this is the quintessential Florida story.

Exactly what I was thinking. 9 years ago Simmons says Love > Mayo and also notes that it’s difficult to say without sounding like an ass because the reasons why Love > Mayo align with unfortunate racial stereotypes. Other than mixing in LeBron’s name, what was he wrong about?

Also, Simmons has spent more time over the…

So with 9 years of hindsight, the obvious conclusion to draw is...Simmons was 100% correct here?

Come on, that entire interior is prob $50-60 worth..

A GNX steering wheel looks like something you could buy brand new on Ebay for $17.49 with free shipping.

So, uhh, it’s legal, it doesn’t break NFL rules, and Jones didn’t miss any meetings or practices? Seems like this falls into the same general category as getting blackout drunk on a non-work-night. Not the most responsible behavior, but doesn’t seem like it should lead the national news, either.

Brady is going to side with Trump, since that towel-head Cam Newton is a huge threat to Brady winning another Super Bowl.

I’m not sure you can put that one on the “byzantine rulebook.” I’m pretty sure even casual fans know of the down by contact distinction between college and NFL. That’s like forgetting that a receiver needs to get two feet in rather than one.
