  2. yeah, that's the secret behind bonds' swing. the fact that he has no give in his flesh such that when a hinge is placed on it, the swing that he had for 30 years and 6 mvps is suddenly fixed in a perfect plane.
  3. interesting stat. bonds has more intentional walks than the rays.
  4. yeah, everyone called it the steroid era for a reason. everyone was roiding. now that memories of JAGs have faded, all the focus is on the standouts and people seem to have lost the understanding that it was the entire culture at that time. no one bitches about ken caminiti, luis gonzalez, troy glaus and whatever other dude ballooned up and hit 40 blasts out of nowhere anymore because no one remembers those guys. no one remembers that nobody could keep an ERA under 3.50. everyone suddenly had 4 guys in their lineup that looked like canseco. that's what frustrates me. all the moralizing is post hoc finger wagging when we were all laughing about it at the time. Here's an article from 1995. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1995-07-15-sp-24265-story.html lulz at this quote. lulz at selig: i personally don't think steroids even exist, at least so long as we are making a ton of money off them. perhaps later we can pin it on someone after the checks have cleared and i'm dead.
  5. And here is baby faced rocket eating the Ms alive as a 23 year old
  6. just watched all 73 2001 homers in honor of this bullshit. Couldn’t help to notice how often Chan Ho Park showed up, and like cmon, those shouldn’t count.
  7. Wordle 221 4/6* ⬜⬜🟩⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟩⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 no yellow
  8. I wonder how many of the voters could directly tie their job to baseball’s expanded popularity in the 90s precisely because of Clemens Bonds McGwire Sosa etc.
  9. Hall of Harold Baines et al.
  10. What a crock of shit.
  11. IRS has been on steel shank's ass for years
  12. Just googling, it seems most cities saw big jumps in 2020 and modest increases in 2021.
  13. That’s weird. Also happens to exactly coincide with the flipping of the calendar.
  14. Oh yeah. I was thinking of hopwood.
  15. UT one wasn’t SCOTUS. That just governed the 5th circuit. A few years after, a Michigan one went up and set the nationwide rule. that meaningless aside aside, I don’t know. The fundamentals are all the same, so viewed from 30,000 feet there will be no differences. I’m sure the litigants will zoom in on particular details where they want to differentiate.
  16. Wordle 220 4/6* 🟩⬜⬜⬜⬜ 🟩⬜🟨🟨⬜ 🟩⬜⬜🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

  19. Piano is strung backwards. Would not arooooo.
  20. If you’re playing on hard mode it shows an asterisk. It’s an option if you select the gear. It requires you to use the letters you get right in following words. You can’t do the two word pairs to start that way.
  21. Wordle 218 3/6* 🟨⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟨⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  22. Here’s as good a place as any to post. Cohn is my favorite of Silver / Cohn / G Elliot, but he suddenly took a turn into idiocy. What is he taking about?
  23. nakatomi is in brookside. surprised you didn't know that.
