Here’s the thing - in the world of the wedding website, why can’t couples who want some stupid oddball attire not just provide a paragraph explanation within the wedding website somewhere??????
“I believe it does” - is the #1 counterpoint made when facts are presented. Ya, ok cool, glad you “believe” it, but like, you’re wrong. So..............
Dude catches foul ball with beer in hand, chugs beer.
I have always been puzzled as to the surface of home plate. It’s super slick. Playing slow-pitch softball for years, scoring swiftly isn’t safe as the plate is this super slick plastic crap. Surprised MLB hasn’t ever innovated for a better surface that has some give or something so players don’t slip on it. Weird.…
in a first round sweep BY THE KANSAS CITY ROYALS! WOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! (I was there for the Trout swing and miss to end game 3. It was glorious!)
The bullshit is that he thinks sportsmanship isn’t running up the score, but forgets that it includes his own team. And being a gigantic dickweed in the highlight of this kid’s basketball career really fucks it all up. Sorry coach, but go fuck yourself. If only he did the Sam Cassell down the court, that woulda been…
“We played a great defensive game today” - says defense that gave up 51 points
only reason this is sliiiiiiiightly different is for those guys who enter all the Off-White raffles in hopes of getting one so you can flip it and get the ones you want. MOST sneakerheads resell so they can also afford the resale value of other shoes they want. We all sort of win assortments of raffles we don’t always…
“My speculation is there are too many pairs on the market—more supply than there was demand. Determining how many pairs to make is an art, not a science.” - wow, Ivy league econ degree hit us with that hot take?
You know what’s super offensive to a whole group of people? When kids get shot by police officers and those officers never see an ounce of consequence. That’s offensive, and people are dead because of it. I have many military friends who are POC and they 100% disagree with your bullshit. They signed a contract to…
I’ve touted this exact concept for years. If the NCAA is student first, athlete second, then they need to give incentive for student-athletes to graduate. This also means that those who don’t, and leave early to make big money in the NBA/NFL/MLB forego that money, which can go to their teammates who played by their…
“do your own research for what you want to believe in.” is the most disrespectful thing to say about science and scientists who devote their lives to research. Hey man, I googled it, same as Dr. So and So PHD who has studied this for decades. It’s just complete disregard for the scientific community, scientific…
now this took a lovely turn!
Agree - it also shows how old timey climbing was sort of odd in how they did it, and the modern “free” climbing is more accurate form of climbing up the wall. Free soloing is straight up lunacy.
I’m fine with that. I can’t stand the “Sabrmetric nerd” shit. It’s just more stats in a world that has lived on stats forever. It’s not some radical shit, it’s expansion and progression of the same shit. Scouts have created scouting reports and spray charts, and “hey, let’s move the LF closer to the line here” forever…
Also, to tack on another fun traditional stat: Trout has a higher fielding percentage than Harper (.993 vs .982). What more could you ask for as a traditional baseball guy?! A guy who thinks sabremetric nerds are just ruining our game and the straightforward stats of the old days hold up?!?! If you try and go beyond…
Fine - you asked for it.... Through 813 games for Harper and 811 games for Trout (so that excludes 2018 and 2017 for Trout, and Trout got there 1 age-year younger than Harper)....
Was it that Tim Mahi Mahi guy?
agree. Look at ATL UTD. The expansion team has 0 euro stars and is the best team in the league. Young South American talent, and it’s super fun to watch. Miguel Almiron is probably off to Europe soon, but who knows, maybe we can keep the guy!
