Ted Turner and Bobby Cox in the same week. I feel like their Celebration of Life should be held on TBS at 7:05.

@MatthewLeeRosen @kc_dos_siete A bounding ball over 1st or 3rd base is not a concrete physical object, it is an area of visual judgement. Try again (actually, don’t. Because you’re simply wrong. Just give up.)

@kc_dos_siete The foul line... foul pole... top of a wall... or a base, are all concrete physical objects. They are made of atoms. The strike zone is not a physical object. It is merely an area of visual judgement.

In this instance, less than 0.5% of the ball has actually touched zone. It does't seem justifiable to reverse the umpire's call. The ABS system calculates inches & surface data. I think the rules should be adjusted, so that 25% of the ball must be in the zone for a strike.

Why is this a strike?

@SethOnHoops @MarchMadnessMBB Turning something that getting into is difficult to achieve and is a noteworthy accomplishment into a “Yay Us We Showed Up Bowl”… among all the other very accurate comments here.

How about giving 8 more teams and their players the experience of playing in the @MarchMadnessMBB tournament. It's terrible isn't it. It's going to ruin college basketball. Really. Please.

@_KevinBuckley_ @Newmdawg Was tonight some special event? Your post came up in my algorithm and I got curious... Saturday's game that seat is $18... next Friday is $24. Do they do a day-of-game upcharge or something?

This is getting out of hand. $31 to watch High-A baseball from the outfield after paying $10 to park in a gravel lot, or I could just stay home and listen to an MLB game on the radio for $0. It's not even a choice at this point.

@MLB @Royals 1) Kauffman is a gem of MLB ballparks. Give it some updates, don’t replace it with more formulaic crap. 2) if you’re going to present renderings, at least make them believable. That’s one heck of a batters eye…

@thetoddvcu Not to be a potential killjoy, but you may underestimate how many of us open something in a new tab, move on to another tab, and end up with 6 separate chrome instances with 25 tabs each for weeks on end 😂😂😂

@MartyTheElder Not that I disagree with you, but let's talk about the shenanigans Republicans pulled to stack the Supreme Court. Both parties are absolute trash.

What's happening in Virginia should serve as a warning to the rest of the country. Democrats gained power and the first thing they did was invest all their political capital into disenfranchising the conservative voters of their state. This is what the Democrat machine will do to all Americans if given the chance. And it's one of the many reasons I'm running to defeat their loyal soldier Susie Lee.

@NoahB77_ This is literally was is taught. Once the coach is ejected, don’t engage with him. It’s the other umpires job to get him away from the field. The argument is not to be perpetuated, it’s to be concluded.

I really dislike the faction umpires have created “Hey I’m gonna toss this guy and then walk away from him, will you step in front of the coach for me as I turn my back and pretend I’m busy doing more important things?” Come on man. Smh

The amount of unsolicited political robocalls and spam text I'm receiving from various proxies of @GOP and @TheDemocrats makes me want to vote the opposite of whatever one pesters me the most number of times.

@FromSluggo @11point7 That ball was so high, it was easily routine effort for 4 different fielders - textbook example of infield fly. A little wild they didn’t call it immediately, but you can 100% apply it retroactively.

It’s absolutely an infield fly though. He can know the rules or not , by the letter of the law it’s the definition of an infield fly. A pop up in front of home is normal effort with at least first and second is an infield fly regardless if the ball drops or not. They got it right. Not sure why this is a thing. Pollard may know the rules but he was wrong here if he thought it wasn’t an infield fly.

Chris Pollard has been tossed after umpires retroactively called a dropped pop up an infield fly. Brutal. Pollard is on the rules committee... I think he knows the rules.

@CoachLisle Any one or two parts of it (except the bat throw - dangerous, irresponsible, and ejectable) - especially if it was a game winning home run - I’d be ok with it. Big home run, get pumped and celebrate. But all of it put together is just way too much showboat.
