@GowagsKyle @LemonsClement How do you think about it? Halfway from 2nd to 3rd on a ball to the wall? A third of the way? When the OF makes an over the shoulder catch, you’re probably not advancing to third. If you tag up and the ball drops b/t the OF and the wall, you still have a great chance to score.

@balkwhisperer @RobsRankings What advantage did the pitcher gain? If nothing, then don’t call an extremely technical balk to win the game in the 21st inning.

@sarotten10 @umichvoter You, and other followers of @umichvoter, are likely much more knowledgeable about the candidates than the average primary voter, it would cost a lot more money and time to full inform the entire primary electorate. That money can be spent in the general election.

@umichvoter Party conventions are stupid. We should be able to vote for all candidates through a primary process.

@Challenger_ST Multiple cameras on the field in fair territory to video the end his home run trot should also tell you need to know about what kind of event he’s playing in. Wearing a streaming or recording device is illegal in high school baseball, for what it’s worth.

Tough day for youth baseball in #AnnArbor. Many, many games will have to be canceled. Meanwhile, the youth field at Veterans Memorial Park with the least damage (field #4) is being used as a dog park instead of a youth baseball field. ⁦@A2GOV⁩ ⁦@TravisRadina

@CoachDavidKlein Maybe you can champion a change in travel ball age cutoff from May 1 to September 1. If you’ve yet to experience the 14U team age problem, then you will eventually. Are there any states that use May 1 as the cutoff for school age? Then why does travel baseball use that date?

The travel ball age rules are confusing... Can someone explain to me the "travel ball age rules" like Im a dummy? My mind cannot process how it works. My understanding is a child's travel ball age is their age on May 1st of the "current season"... and the season runs from May 1st - April 30th... Is this right?

@jdflynn Also, kids won’t learn to hit if you have them bunt. Bunting works at younger ages because the defenses aren’t very good. But in the interest of developing players, bunting should only be allowed once kids have proven that they can hit.

(and i know a lot of people will say that bunting with two strikes is dumb because bunting foul is a k. but in the cases I'm thinking of, well, again, hitting is a work-in-progress, and this strategy would have optimized the chance of putting the ball in play)

For most of my third grade baseball team, hitting is a work-in-progress. I thought I'd devised a GREAT offensive strategy to compensate for that. But it turns out bunting is forbidden in our league.

@GowagsKyle What makes the inside move predictable? Speedy runner on second, one out, offspeed count?

They anticipate but their background knowledge allows for this anticipation. The inside move is predictable when you realize why and when it’s called. The safety squeeze? And on and on and on So many drill skills and forget to teach the patterns of the game.

Gave a classroom session to our high school team instead of practicing in 30 degree temps. Discussed every base state with every possible number of outs not to mention counts. Here’s what I’m thinking offensively/ defensively. The best play this game pitch to pitch.

@MichaelSLinden @mattyglesias That’s a distinction without difference. Gross income is more than AGI, but the impact on average effective tax rate by income level is minimal. Maybe you want to lump in SS and Medicare taxes with income taxes? SS and MC benefit structure preferences lower incomes.

Things that *sound* true to a lot of people, but aren't actually true. Tax the rich edition. 1. If you raise taxes on the rich, they will leave. 2. Americans don't want to tax the rich, because everyone hopes to be rich one day. 3. The super rich already pay very high taxes.

@balkwhisperer @NeashamKris Is “gained ground” the standard? NFHS rulebook says step directly toward the base and NFHS casebook outlines the 45 degree concept. “Gained ground” appears nowhere in either document, and I don’t think it does in OBR or NCAA, but I don’t have those memorized.

@umichvoter Associating “Medicare for All” with free to consumers bothers me as misleading. Ask anyone on Medicare and they’ll tell you that they pay quite a bit out of pocket for it every month. The premiums might be deducted from Social Security checks, so less painful, but seniors pay.

someone correct me if I'm not, but am I understanding it right this version -everyone is enrolled into government plan by default for free (cost shared by the entire country) -people can buy the full coverage thru their job or union, offered via private insurance company at $$$
Melissa Nann Burke@nannburke

Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed has consistently supported Medicare for All. In a bid for a broader coalition, he's highlighting a version that lets people keep the health insurance provided by their union or employer detroitnews.com/story/news/pol… via @detroitnews

@AmSolidarity I think it worked out to be a savings expected to average roughly $128 per senior household. Yes, it's pointless and they shouldn't do it. But let's not effing pretend that it's a huge burden on the working poor. They pay zero net taxes.

@umichvoter “Donations” and “money” are two different things. Perhaps that distinction matters here. One could have 99% of donations of $1 and 1% of donations of $1,000. Then it’s 99% of donations from small donors, but only 9% of money.

@CryMoreLibi @CWingUexkull @SenateGOP Does you mom receive Social Security retirement benefits? If yes, then she isn’t on a fixed income. Social Security recipients get a raise every year, a percentage often far higher than what working people receive. If she doesn’t get Social Security, then why not?

Let’s try this experiment. No tax credits for Boomers. In exchange, make them tax-exempt. No federal income tax. No property tax. No taxes funding schools, welfare, or anything else. Then let’s see how fast the narrative changes. My mom is on a fixed income and still pays federal and property taxes every year. Her costs keep rising. Her income doesn’t. Stop pretending retirees aren’t contributing.

America’s seniors will see a new $6,000 bonus exemption as a part of the Working Families Tax Cut. That’s $93 billion in tax cuts for seniors all over the country.

@BigTomBoye @JenniferSey Well, about 1.7% of people are born intersex and may not genetically conform to the genitalia they are born with. Is it chromosome based or is it whether or not they have a penis?

An open appeal to the Supreme Court: you have the opportunity to do the right thing by women and girls. And uphold basic biological truth. Don't be foolish. Don't make this more complicated than it is. Women's sports are for XX only. Save women's sports.

With @MiamiHurricanes in the national title game, I feel the need to remind the world that Miami has won ZERO @ACCFootball championships since joining that conference in 2004. Yet @NDFootball needs to join a conference? Why? So ND can adopt Cignetti’s scheduling philosophy?
