@TomTxd101 @Super70sSports It ever bother anyone else that on base percentage is actually an average (average total bases per pa) and batting average is actually a percentage (percent of ABs that end in a hit)

@Super70sSports That's how we learned percentages, averages and division.

@dgoold The Cardinals are almost never plucky underdogs but given how low expectations are, moments like these will have extra enjoyment this year.

Sure there was the production.
But there was also the personality.

Quite a sequence for the Offer Sheet boys, combining for the OT winner last night against the Sharks.
Broberg up the wall and Holloway with the finish with 3 seconds left in OT. #stlblues

Arguably one of the sickest last-seconds OT game-winner you'll ever see. #stlblues

@nguyenhdi What exactly is a narrow thinking woman? We all think narrowly in some sense.
English
Considering that this person claims to have annotated "Pride & Prejudice", this is a terrible misreading.
There is no indication that Mr Bennet picked his wife because she's a narrow-thinking woman; we are told that he fell for her because of her looks & has suffered terribly in his marriage because of her silliness. Not only is he not controlling, he buries himself among his books, runs away from his responsibilities, leaves his domineering wife to do her things (we can guess that he has done some parenting with Jane & Elizabeth but seems to have given up with the last 3 daughters), & hides behind his witticisms.
Jane Austen here depicts very well an unhappy marriage between intellectually incompatible people.
Ann Bauer@annbauerwriter
I believe in my heart that some men prefer being married to a narrow-thinking woman. It makes for an easier, more orderly life. This is a major theme of "Pride & Prejudice." The vain, neurotic, not-clever wife and her controlling, mildly cruel husband.

@BopDoji46659 @ArthurJSpring I'm sorry that some people are being caustic in their answers. That said, 30 grand is a large overestimation in most cases. Child care can be expensive if you both work. Healthy insured also goes up. Other than that, the costs are pretty low.

@ArthurJSpring Yep! You only have to pay 30-50k to maintain/ have that baby after that a year 🎊. Totally worth the tax credit 🤡

@Cardinals Obvious all the players are gone, but how cool would it be to honor the 100th anniversary of the first championship. Have their descendents come, wear throwback jerseys. Maybe fans could come in shirt and tie like they did back then.

Started the season yesterday by honoring our 1996 NL Central championship and 2006 World Series championship teams!

@greenfield64 I have seen it more with outfielders. Infielders are a different level.
English
They've been hot micing players, doing in-game chats, for quite awhile on other networks. Next, announcers will run with base-stealers, asking if they think they got a good jump and do they pan to slide head or feet first.

@xan_desanctis Don't like the DH, batter minimums, pick off limits, but the absolute worst is the ghost runner. Can't believe that is still a thing.
English
I agree with all of this except it’s so hard to pick the one dumbest thing.
Kyle Malzhan@KyleMalzhan
The dumbest thing Major League Baseball does is schedule an off day right after Opening Day. They build all that hype, then they immediately hit pause. Lol. There's my rant.

@TheLaurenChen Ad to this that when someone sticks a microphone in your face out of nowhere, you are not usually at your most thoughtful.

@UmpScorecards That box on TV makes everyone think the difference between a ball and a strike is always obvious. Not only do umps see it wrong, teams sometimes do as well.

The Yankees, the most aggressive challenging team during Spring Training, only used one challenge last night – and it was on a correct call. They didn’t challenge any of the 7 incorrect calls that went against them.

@JonahDispatch I don't care if they have zero names on the bills or put the whole cabinet on there, but the fact that our President needs constant praise and affirmation is pathetic.

@lutherabel1 The kind of kids who will be able to learn from a robot come from families with resource to ensure they don't have to.

This is one of the stupidest ideas ever devised. Kids are too smart, too headstrong, to learn from a robot. Only people who've never taught in a classroom setting think that AI-bot-directed education will survive more than three days.
