What would be easier to hit, me throwing a ball 100 feet away at 90mph or me throwing the ball 80 feet away at 85mph?

pitches with longer strides are closer to home plate so the ball gets their faster than a pitcher throwing the same mph with a shorter stride.

For those of you who don’t know, the perceived speed stat is obtained by performing a postgame colorimetry analysis on the back of the hitter’s pants.

Yes! The Heater from Van Meter! Bob Feller was the man.

Ryan Flaherty ain’t scared.

I mean, heavens forbid they actually use that technology to figure out where a punt goes out of bounds so the refs don’t walk it back up an extra 10 yards, it’s not like I’m bitter about that or anything.

Maybe they could also put chips in the players’ helmets to study the force of-

Funny, my wife asked for much the same thing.

Perhaps these micro chips could even give a precise reading of the air pressure, lest we end up with some never-ending issue regarding differences in air pressure. But alas, I fear that is but a pipe dream

We are embarrassed to admit we don’t have a firm grasp on the details of how Communist money began to infiltrate American media institutions following the 2008 economic collapse, although we have Googled the Chinese Communist Party.

i don’t know. CBS has neutered him somewhat. i’ve watched some of the new stuff and i find myself a bit bored. Sam Bee and John Oliver I think may give us more of the winning feint.

YES, STEPHEN, YES.

How...how on earth did that happen??? All power to him, but HOW DID THE SECURITY OF THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONGRESS let a known left-wing talk show host, in a bizarre costume, onto the stage? Let alone leave him at the damn podium long enough to give a satirical speech?? Jesus, no wonder they didn’t want guns there.…

Phil had to feel like if he shot 65 he was gonna be walking off with a Claret Jug.

Johnny Miller had, what, 2-3 years of glory on the circuit, and has been milking it ever since. Seems like Dustin Johnson did a good job of getting past his mistake and focusing on the next hole. Isn’t that what coaches taught us to do?

1) Phil starts the day down one shot, shoots a fucking 65 in the final round of a major...and loses by three shots. That’s how good this was.

Lipping out those two putts and then losing close must be quite emotionally taxing for Mickelson.

Forgot one record: Largest golf payout for Sweden since Elin’s divorce settlement.

Matched each other shot for shot, but Stenson was out of his mind putting. Glad to see it was won by someone playing lights out as opposed to someone going to shit. Very exciting last round.
