@BuffJE0920 @driversside @RhubarbBrown He’s not proving his point at all.
We are still getting into the same conversation, so let’s at least get in the conversation with the right call.
There’s too much money, too much at stake in pro sports to allow that bad of call to stand.
English
This is a wonderful example of why MLB Replay has ruined baseball. This is one of the worst calls I’ve ever seen. And instead of players and fans being pissed for decades, it was reversed immediately.
English
@JomboyMedia ...why would he even think to make that call? If he wasn't watching the bag, then ask for help rather than guessing. If he was watching the bag... how could he get it so wrong?
English
CB Bucknor strikes again, this time saying the runner did not touch first base. He very clearly did
English
@BennettChr44386 @leodabingiv2 @JFreshHockey You can define it however you want. But introducing competing criteria doesn't mean the OP is "just picking the players you like." It also doesn't mean that anyone is saying that any players "will be completely forgotten in 30 years." You're just spouting stuff.
English
@Slimhmmm @leodabingiv2 @JFreshHockey Im not. My definition of generational ( which i have stated multiple times) is a player that changes the way hockey is played.
English
@Slimhmmm @JFreshHockey Oh I thought you said the list has to include Mack and kuch.. they are unreal just not generational
English
@_ianwatts_ @suzania Whether you personally have heard a word is irrelevant.
English
@Slimhmmm @JFreshHockey 97/mack/kuch careers are now and McDavid is well enough into his where you can say he is generational .. he has a lot of records that are only eclipsed by 99/66 .. you can’t say that about kuch or Mack.. hence why they aren’t generational
English
@BennettChr44386 @leodabingiv2 @JFreshHockey No one said that he would be "completely forgotten in 30 years." Why are you making stuff up?
English
@leodabingiv2 @JFreshHockey Im a moron? Think for yourself, instead of trying to suck up to JFresh. Only an idiot and someone trying to start shit would look at Mackinnon and think " this guy will be completely forgotten in 30 years"
English
@BennettChr44386 @erekzoolander @JFreshHockey You're basing a list of generational players on... "now"? The whole point of the list is to look transhistorically.
English
@erekzoolander @JFreshHockey Don't care. I base it on now. Not the past
English
@FactualGalore @benzornes It's not clear that ABS is even correct here. ABS is approximating, just like human eyes are.
English
@benzornes I don't understand this thought process at all
Don't you want the correct calls to be made?
English
I want to go on record to say that I hate this vehemently.
This orients the sport to the tediously precise algorithm, instead of the judgement and skill of the humans playing it, umping it, and watching it.
Codify@CodifyBaseball
about as close as it gets
English
@lylesilverman @JonahDispatch Definitely. People on this thread are talking about the 80s and 90s—they still have them in 2026.
English
@JonahDispatch They literally still have them. It’s not the most common but they’re alive and well

New York City still had elevator operators when I was a kid.
James Stephenson@ICannot_Enough
Nobody is skeptical of autonomous elevators because nobody alive today was even around to see a human elevator operator in real life before the last one got laid off. Automation is far safer.
English
@7whitebarn @mlbeuphoria Sure... but the point is that it's very difficult to hit that pitch at all, let alone hit it the way he did.
English
@mlbeuphoria You hit it where it’s pitched that’s the only place he can go with it
People over complicate it
You try to do anything else and it’s an out foul or strike 🤷♂️
English
This swing is absolutely absurd. Who the hell hits this pitch out to this spot in this ballpark?
The G-word is the only one left to describe DeLauter, and I don’t throw the G-word around

@Cerealbox0 @RestrictedDaily Y2k started Jan 1, 2000. The 4 digit year changing from 1999 to 2000 was the issue - how is this at all helpful with the jeopardy question?
English
Final Jeopardy time. No Googling… just instincts. What’s your answer?
English
English
@Icky427 @RestrictedDaily But there was ALWAYS that proto-redditor who was like "yeah, but technically the new millenium starts in 2001, because technically there was no year zero, so..."
At least how I remember. I thought it was a universally shared cultural experience. I'm learning not.
English
I personally prefer Bob Dylan's dancing to his singing or songwriting.
alex@vaudevillehook
Bob Dylan is a great singer but a terrible songwriter. I much prefer his covers of other people’s songs to his own original material.
English
@w0rldmap @CHRISF0GLE Me too. But the back half alone makes Abbey Road S-tier.
English
This should be uncontroversial I think
Elly ✦@seastarlings
They’re calling it the most basic taste ever?
English
@henrycmckenna Easy to do all this when you know you dont have a 280 pound man ready drive his shoulder into your sternum.
English
This highlight is a microcosm of why, for the Olympics, it will be complicated to pick between pro NFL players and pro flag football players
English
@josh_uglyasf @Krismora9710 If he consented, it's not a crime. This isn't difficult to understand.
English
@Krismora9710 Oh you would commit a crime if someone asked you to because they gave you permission to? Besides if you listen you’ll know that was sure sarcasm
English
She met him at the club, thought it was smart enough to slap him because she thought she would get away with it. He didn’t react it get violent, he just got her arrested. Now that’s how you handle it.
English
@BBGreatMoments This kinda looks like clear cut obstruction to me
English
This was probably the most most bizarre “error” I've ever seen.
English
@howdyjimbo @W_Rose_Blake @Steven_Hyden Yes, it is such a silly thing to get hung up on. I don't know why you're hung up on it.
English
@W_Rose_Blake @Slimhmmm @Steven_Hyden I'm not saying they're worthless but I'm saying they're an entirely separate thing. When you're talking about how good an album is you're not talking about the credits, you're talking about the songs. This is such a silly thing to get hung up on
English
I haven't seen Train Dreams ... is that Nick Cave song for real lol
