  1. off the top of my head judge, witt, shohei, acuña, and someone like kyle tucker or juan soto are the ~5 best offensive players. shohei also happens to be on the list of the ~5 best pitchers in the league. imagine if spencer strider played dh this season and went 50/50. that’s shohei in real life.
  2. he’s a top 5 offensive player who finished fourth in the cy young voting last year despite getting hurt. there’s no historical or contemporary comparison to shohei.
  3. that was obviously a pick in real time. all of the players on the field reacted as such. the only people who didn’t know were the officials.
  4. weren’t you just crying about people using the word “retard”? lol
  5. why would the idea of sucking dicks offend gay people? most people who suck dicks are straight women. this is what it looks like when you go out of your way to be offended.
  6. i’ve yet to hear the argument against shohei being the best ever baseball player, which he clearly is. he’s a perennial cy young candidate who just had the first ever 50/50 season in the history of baseball. unless tarik skubal starts going 50/50 from the plate or kyle tucker suddenly leads the league in k/9 with a 1.01 whip as a starting pitcher i can’t figure out how there’s any debate about this at all.
  7. swoopes is trying to set new records for hating.
  8. id love to see an ad featuring trump working on a pickup truck and explaining what he’s doing. 😂 man i hope the working class trumptards wake up and see who is really for them.
  9. watching this yesterday: reminded me that i’ve heard people who say that play should be stopped once an in-game penalty is saved, that allowing the kick taker a second free shot at an open net is too much if advantage. what do y’all think?
  10. the elephant in the room that nobody is willing to publicly acknowledge or discuss is that the majority of the best female basketball players in the world have the athleticism of 7th grade boys who haven’t yet hit puberty. when you’re all slow, gangly, not particularly coordinated, can’t jump, or some combination of the above it makes big upsets nearly impossible. all of the best athletes and all of the best talent is on a handful of teams. there’s no formula for a lower seed to upset a higher seed other than the high seed tripping over its own dick all day long. this makes for an incredibly boring and uncompelling product for the first weekend at minimum, usually well beyond that. the women’s tourney should be 16 teams at most. everything before that is chalk.
  11. i watched the atlanta game, and on the first drive they had a 3rd and 6, and smith called a handoff up the middle to his third string rb cordarrelle patterson, which was stuffed at the line of scrimmage. that is truly some greg davis, vizzini type shit there. ”atlanta knows me very well, thus they will be expecting me to do some stupid shit like a handoff up the middle to my rb3. however they know that i know that they know me very well, therefore they will clearly expect me to go away from tendency, and to throw the ball beyond the sticks here. but of course they know that i know that they know this, which means that i am left with no choice but to do the last thing they will expect me to do, which is in fact the very thing they expected me to do in the first place! don’t you see! a hahahahahah! a hahahahahahaha!”
  12. remember when damarcus croaker had a great open run in orlando with marcin gortat and he was supposed to become some nba superstar because of it? i learned at a very young age going to UT practices that everyone is awesome in practice, that everyone is really skilled, but that there’s a huge leap up from showing skills in practice to doing it in the game. remember shaquille cleare going all and-1 mixtape tour during the orange/white game? everybody at this level is really really good outside of official games.
  13. first three drives against atl: 28 plays run, 72 yards gained. how is that even possible? has that ever even been done before? just an astonishing hire by the steelers with absolutely predictable results.
  14. https://bloggingdirty.com/posts/steelers-already-regret-hiring-arthur-smith-after-just-two-games fuck this guy.
  15. she straight up said that you can’t be considered great until you’ve won a title. there’s no parsing that, it’s very straightforward: from 2013-2016, any women’s college player who didn’t play for uconn could not be considered great.
  16. who? name every hitter who is this good at their peak, including base running. now name every pitcher who at their peak was/is as good as shohei. now tell me every name that’s on both lists. you’re left with babe ruth as the only guy even in the conversation, and he didn’t do what shohei has done while pitching and hitting at the same time. forget about the base running. pound for pound shohei is undoubtedly the best all around baseball player we’ve ever seen. a cy young caliber pitcher with 50/50 offensive skills. come on. this is a no-brainer.
  17. 3 HR games are rare; 6 hit games are rare; 10 rbi games are rare; and frankly, two SB games don’t happen every day. for this guy to do all of this in one day, knowing that he’s a top 5-8 pitcher in the league…he’s a human video game.
  18. wide open holes are never actually open.
  19. there’s no more top heavy sport in the history of sports. coaching and recruiting matters more in this sport than any other sport. the game is played by poor athletes who play below the rim. stockpiling the most talented players works in this sport more than any other sport. to fault CC for not winning a title or to downgrade her for that is absurd.
  20. mike of them won a title while stewart was in college, which, according to her, means none of them were great during their time in college while stewart was at uconn.
