Semantics. By block I meant fail to pass. Yes, no argument from me on how monstrous he is, or deserving of impeachment and far worse. But until enough voters turn on him to actually scare enough Senators he’s going nowhere. I really have no idea what it would take, or if it’s even possible, but clearly we’re not there…

Yeah, I meant if a full impeachment process was undertaken and Pelosi supported it then I would expect it to be passed by a majority in the House which is all that’s required to pass it to the Senate. I think the recent vote reflects what I said, knowing it will fail in the Senate and being unsure of the impact has…

If Pelosi let’s it get to a vote in the House I’d imagine it would pass. The harder question is what would be the impact of it failing in the Senate, which barring some extraordinary development is guaranteed. My uninformed guess is Pelosi is stalling hoping for that extraordinary development that even the Senate…

With touch sensors and video how subjective is this call?  Seems having a judge looking through splashing water at hands faster than eyes touches for “simultaneous” is ripe for unnecessary controversy.

Has anyone asked, “If Trump were not the President would you have indicted him for obstruction?”

I’m zero inclined to offer any sort of forgiveness or assistance to anyone who voluntarily signed up to help the Orange Fuhrer. It’s not like there could have been any surprises about what you were getting into, since it’s only been downhill from the Obama birther beginning. A life sentence of shaming is the only…

Not going to page through 500 comments. If no one has called you a snowflake by now then here it is.  Out of all the shit this is what triggers you?  

So you have no stats to support your contention that overrun tags are a “decent chunk” of replays, or how many occur per game. I watch quite a few games and don’t notice them as standing out. Occasional but definitely not frequent. I actually did find some stats. In 2018 there were a total of 1409 replays in the 4,860…

A “decent chunk”? You have any stats to support that?  How many replays per game are for tags on base overruns?  And you’d open up judgement calls and arguments about whether runners had turned toward the next base at 2nd and 3rd, and then potential tag replays if the runner did but then tried to get back.  A big…

The media will start ignoring Trump when he stops making them money and not a second before.  That’s the system of the 4th estate we’ve created, and we reap what we’ve sown.  America isn’t a country, it’s a business.

If you beat the tag now you beat the tag. What’s the argument against sliding and maintaining contact with the bag? Sometimes it’s close? Sometimes it close at 1st. Sometimes it would be close on the tag you want them to beat before they touch the bag. Guys would still slide to get under the tag rather than standing…

Why not change the rule to not allow overrunning 1st? You’re also suggesting allowing overruns of 2nd and 3rd on non-forced plays as in this example. You sure about all the ramifications of that?

BS. It’s about criticism and it’s about being non-white, and female, and them having the gall to not be intimidated. When did he tell a white man who criticized him to go back to where they came from? “Go back to where you came from” is only used against minorities, and never Europeans since at least since when the…

As another poster indicated your stat is incorrect. But it’s also beside the point I was making. I asked about Senators, which is an entirely different ball game. It’s not a democratically representative body. Without getting into each states history, demographics and politics what is clear is the Senate is not…

???? People have already died. Numerous mass shootings inspired by the Orange Fuhrer.

Yep. It’s been too late for a long time. I’ve posted numerous times on different forums, what would it take for voter sentiment to threaten GOP Senators enough to impeach him? Never get an answer. And the farther he pushes them the more entrenched those voters get. It’s more than scary.

A couple of points. It only happens on 3rd strikes, meaning the ball was nearly always pretty close to the plate, and when dropped is usually near the catcher. Rare a batter swings at a really wild pitch that the catcher has to bail out of his position to go fetch. If it’s that wild it’s a ball and not a 3rd strike.…

Check the replies. I know the wording was sloppy, and already found the stat. But thanks.

Ok, found stats to back up my contention (as poorly worded as it was).
