Tell me, how many other baseball teams do you know that, in a series, are down in the 8th inning 4 times and manage to win 3 of them?

I doubt they were unlucky considering that the Mets had one of the best pitching rotations in baseball, as evidenced by FIP and xFIP (and this was all without Zach Wheeler too, mind you).

The Mets also had a higher overall WAR, higher BaseRuns, better offense (as measured by wRC+ or wOBA), better pitching (as measured by FIP, xFIP and SIERA).

So if a baseball team wins a series 1-0, 2-1, 3-2, 1-0, is that a pansing? Not all scores are created equal. We can argue over the merits of the Royals but the fact remains that they needed to pull off something that has never been done before (coming from behind in 3 of the 5 games to win against the Mets and getting…

Thing is, while the Elders Scrolls has a lot of lore, it really isn’t that compelling.

Steroids do not make you a magically better batter, else half the people listed in the Mitchell Report would’ve been Hall of Fame candidates (nevermind all the users that never made it past A-ball).

If that’s the point you were trying to make, it was a very poor one.

Nice strawman, glad to see that you seem to lack the very basics of logical reasoning.

And most everyone in baseball was using steroids, so what point are you trying to make?

In an era in which the level of competition is significantly higher (that’s the weakness of wRC+. It can’t account for the fact that the overall level of competition has increased, meaning performing above average is a much more difficult feat), Bonds produced numbers just as insane as Ted Williams.

Bond’s career BABIP: .285

Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb also didn’t have the level of competition that Bonds did. And I’m not just talking about pitchers. Would Babe Ruth seem that legendary if his contemporaries were Oscar Charleston, Josh Gibson (who has been claimed to hit over 900 homeruns in his Negro League career and hit a ball clear out of…

Sammy Sosa is a stooge compared to Bonds in every way, shape and form. Not once did Sammy Sosa post a wrC+ better than Bonds in the same season. Barry Bonds beats Sosa’s best wrC+ season 6 times. Bonds eclipsed 200 wRC+ 4 times. Sosa not once even sniffed that.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda. If only Kawhi hit both free throws or Duncan didn’t miss the tip-in....or James Harden didn’t go cold turkey against the Heat and LeBron gets called for grabbing Durant’s arm while shooting a potential game-tying 2 in game 2.

That’s quintessential Far Cry post-3. Random encounters with the wildlife that you couldn’t hope of replicating.

Also because Here Maps actually works on Windows Phone...unlike Google Maps...or the now not-updated Waze...

If you played Fallout 3, you would’ve known that ;)

And if you use a Windows Phone, good luck because Google are still a bunch of dickwads who like to jerk Microsoft’s chain.

Even though they edited out the Assassin? That at least means they had a passing knowledge of the image because it wasn’t a straight drag and drop.

Note that this isn’t the first time that Naughty Dog has been accused of using other people’s artwork without permission: there’s the whole transit map in the Last of Us.
