Watch Jillian Michaels run circles around a “body positivity” advocate in a debate about excess fat. WOMAN: “You’re saying that it is inherently unhealthy to live in a fat body.” MICHAELS: “Yes.” WOMAN: “Where did you get that evidence?” [Michaels lays out the evidence] MICHAELS: “Have you heard of something called adiposopathy?” WOMAN: “Mmmhmm.” [Answers wrong] MICHAELS: “No, that’s not what it is.” [Educates her] WOMAN: “I want to pause.” MICHAELS: “Of course, you do want to pause because it’s irrefutable. You don’t even know what I’m talking about.” [Audible gasps]

Baseball Doesn’t Need More Data Readers It Needs Pitching Coaches If professional baseball truly vetted the people being hired as pitching coaches, a lot of jobs would disappear overnight. Because what’s happening right now isn’t coaching. It’s data reading. Somewhere along the way, the game decided that if you can interpret ball-flight charts and recite spin efficiency, you’re qualified to stand on a big-league mound and teach pitchers how to get outs. That’s not development. That’s outsourcing responsibility to numbers. Let’s be clear about something: data matters. But data is not coaching. You can teach a real pitching coach how to use data. Good coaches want to learn it. They’ll study it, question it, challenge it, and then filter it through feel, execution, and competition. What you can’t teach is how to pitch. And that’s the problem. The Game Has Replaced Pitching Coaches With Throwing Coaches Talk to professional coaches around the league guys who have actually stood on the mound, competed, failed, adjusted, and survived and you’ll hear the same thing over and over: Many of the new pitching hires have never pitched at a professional level and have no idea how to actually get hitters out. So what do they default to? “Throw it down the middle and see what happens.” “Trust the data.” “Velocity plays.” That’s not pitching. That’s gambling. Pitching is a competitive skill built on execution, sequencing, movement, deception, and decision-making under pressure. It’s understanding how hitters adjust, how counts matter, how adrenaline changes mechanics, and how to get through an inning when you don’t have your best stuff. Those lessons don’t show up on a dashboard. Ball Flight Without Execution Means Nothing Ball flight data without execution is useless. Velocity without command is meaningless. Spin rate without intent is noise. A pitcher doesn’t get paid for having elite metrics in a bullpen. He gets paid for outs. And outs come from being able to repeat a delivery, control the baseball, adjust in real time, and compete when the game tightens. Right now, too many organizations are creating glorified throwers, not pitchers. Guys who can light up a Rapsodo in shorts. Guys who look incredible in controlled environments. Guys who fall apart when hitters stop chasing and the game speeds up. That’s a coaching failure. Coaching Is Not Explaining It’s Teaching The best pitching coaches in the game don’t drown players in information. They simplify. They prioritize. They understand who the pitcher is, not who the data wants him to be. They know: When to push and when to shut up When data helps and when it hurts When feel beats force When execution beats intent They don’t sell pitchers on magic numbers. They teach them how to own the mound. And here’s the part that matters most: real coaches aren’t impressed by bullshit. Professional players can smell it instantly. If you’ve never had to get outs with a tired arm, a bad feel day, or a runner on third and one out, your credibility is gone before you open your mouth. Get Outs Baseball is not a lab experiment. It’s a competitive game of outs. The industry doesn’t need more self-proclaimed “throwing coaches” who hide behind screens and spreadsheets. It needs pitching coaches people who understand the craft, respect the chaos, and can blend data with reality. Data should inform decisions. Execution should decide games. Until professional baseball gets back to hiring coaches who can actually teach pitching, not just explain it, the game will keep producing arms that look great on paper and disappear when it matters. And that’s not development. That’s failure dressed up as innovation. #shegone @notgaetti @BobFile @twuench @billdubs @SliderDominate @slider_sinker @iamrags @ROXSystem @BLocsports @TheRealJHair @DMEASrecruiting @itsJohnRocker @45PedroMartinez @rogerclemens @Plesac19 @BackWoodRebel39 @GlendonRusch @CoachMunoz51
Next Level Baseball@nextlevelbb

The velocity era is a tired act. Watching dudes with below command trying to throw as hard as they can every pitch is vomit worthy. It's time for the pitchability, moxie and feel era to resurface. Control and command the ball. Then learn to throw it harder, not the other way around.

Parents: Sometimes the best thing you can do is NOT rescue your kid. Don’t fight their battles. Don’t chase playing time. Help them build a work ethic, communicate, and let them struggle forward. That growth ends up mattering way more than any score. It prepares them for life.

I’m so impressed with the wife and my social security increase for 2026! A total of $79, it will allow us to buy 4 packages of hamburger or half of the copay for a needed MRI! I’d like to thank all of our Congress members for, not giving a shit about us people that paid taxes for over 50-60 years! You’re doing awesome work…for everyone except working Americans! Go fuck yourselves!

After traveling the country walking through the doors of hundreds of universities, I’ve come to the conclusion that: College coaches are asked to win, recruit, develop kids, manage parents, master NIL, navigate politics…all inside a system where Athletics and the University can’t even agree on who’s in charge. The system is broken but the coaches are the ones paying the price.

How many injuries happen because teams do these ridiculous Omaha Challenges? I talked to a player who actually played in the CWS… and his team didn’t even do an Omaha challenge. They trained smart and focused on winning, not beating themselves up. Do these challenges make players better… or just more likely to get hurt?

A new study came out claiming that 20% of parents think their child will be a division one athlete while 10% of parents think their child will be a professional athlete and/or be in the Olympics. To put that in context of numbers, that means of a graduating class of 500 athletes, 100 will be D1 athletes while 50 will be pros. That is not even remotely close to happening.
