I love baseball, I really do, but can someone tell me why we still use umpires for calling pitches when a machine can clearly do a better and completely unbiased job (I’m not saying that they purposely call bad pitches for hitters they don’t like, but rather that every players strike zone is different due to their…

Maybe my point could have been better worded, but I meant it as more along the lines that they have nothing to prove. They’ve won 3 titles and been to 5 finals in a row. This team literally had nothing to prove yet risked KD to attempt to try and win yet another title. 

It’s mostly on the coaches, because they not only have the capability to make him understand how dangerous it was, but also the ability to completely stop him from playing entirely. Kerr was incredibly irresponsible in playing him in what will likely end up being a losing series anyways. For a team that doesn’t need…

In my opinion, it’s on the medical staff and coaches to convince him that this is too threatening of a situation to play regardless of the circumstances. Especially when an ESPN analyst is blurting the information out on TV prior to the game, it’s pretty obvious to me that he shouldn’t be playing. It’s incredibly irres…

Except it’s not. Refs are humans and prone to error, hence why replay has become more and more popular in sports. Ultimately it is entertainment, but that doesn’t mean a team should get away with cheating because someone had to take a minute to make sure they didn’t cheat.

I really can’t even begin to comprehend why people are so against any form of replay in sports. Nor why it’s even discussed as though it’s some sort of plague on professional sports when it’s a mechanism to make sure the correct call is made. It sure seems that nobody praises it when it goes their way, but everyone…

This is my concern with this game. The combat in Hellblade was absolutely horrible and if they had put more time and effort into it the game would’ve been much better off and much better received I think. 

First of all, that literally made no sense. You call it a warzone yet suggest someone to not carry a weapon.

There’s fearing because you can be arrested or killed for committing crimes, and there’s fearing because you’re black in a car legally possessing a firearm in the back seat. These are two significantly different types of fear.

“people don’t know how to act right in certain communities”

I’ll bite. The reason people still bring up Kaepernick when players like this are still getting picked up is because Kaepernick is not only a position that’s highly sought after but heactually fits very well into quite a few systems that teams are currently using this moment. And quite a few of those same teams have…

Even if they were to do this though, it’s still “noble” to not outright ask for the money they’re entitled to right away. Especially considering the fact that this guy could obviously afford to pay them that money.

He probably is the one of the first, but Thompson was the quintessential three-and-d player when the term was first used a few years ago.

I think what also effects it is who he plays with, as it should. You put Thompson on a team without a play maker and he won’t carry the offense, unlike pretty much all the other all nba guards from 2019.

Agreed, he’s a shooter, not a play maker. The other guards on the all nba teams are all players that any organization would be more than happy to build a team around. He’s not that type of player.

It’s hard to judge, but considering how bad Oklahoma was without Westbrook on the floor I’d say yes, he’s better.

I dunno, his numbers very likely should be adjusted because of who he plays with. Probably significantly. He’s a great player defensively and can really shoot, but without someone who can make plays like Curry and an inside man like Greene there’s no way he’s as effective. He literally is who they coined the term…

Your own comment about him is incredibly ignorant considering the circumstances. He’s literally reaching out to have conversations with people who disagree with him and instead of pushing for that discussion you’re blowing him off.

The few of them I watch don’t just push their opinions on people the way most political talkers do. They genuinely have discussions with the goal of not only understanding the person they’re talking to but having themselves be understood as well. One of them literally has constant debates with right wing “prodigies”…

Except Hillary didn’t try to appeal to millennials and scoffed at some of the socialist ideas that Sanders was pushing for, which is a big reason why she lost.
