@JKarn41 @TreadAthletics Is there an example of the femur driven strategy without the Miller type arm drag? Would love to know what that looks like

@TreadAthletics @danielpfriel Generally Skenes lower half style is at higher risk but it’s more due to other factors ie how it affects sequencing and timing. Can be on time either way with some work arounds, just a little trickier for very external vertical shin types.

Pitching Mechanics Mini-Lesson: Skenes vs. Miller 🔥 The primary role of the lower half is to create a stable base & load the pelvis so that it can unload into landing. ✅Skenes represents an effective pelvic-driven, vertical shin strategy. This relies on creating tension via a coil from above. ✅Miller represents a femur-driven strategy. This relies on creating tension via a positive shin angle from below. Both wind the back leg spring into a 3D load. Both clear the pelvis into landing. Styles vary. The principles of high-level lower half mechanics remain the same.

@TreadAthletics Hip injuries/lower half would be interesting, but I’m also curious about arm injuries. Miller’s approach *looks* like it puts more strain on the arm than Skenes to me. Skenes reminds me of Nolan Ryan.

We haven't done this analysis, but should be able to in the next few years. Would be simple to bucket guys that fall firmly into one strategy or the other and look at hip injury incidence. Something to think on, for sure. Hip injuries aren't all that uncommon, but they're not that common either, so it would likely take very large samples to reach a firm conclusion one way or the other.

@ScottAdamsSays I tried a RICO case nearly identical to this fact pattern in the ED of Louisiana and successfully argued it on appeal before the Fifth Circuit and I would say yes, assuming misuse of a portion of the funds can be proven. I’d probably define the enterprise more broadly as USAID.

Question for lawyers: Are Democrats -- or a subset of them -- an obvious RICO situation, now that we know the USAID story and who they "fund"? We know the names of the players. We see the money flows. We see the coordination. We see the common criminal goals. What am I missing?

@ReffittNathan @alexathallow Agree! Fr. Ken!

@alexathallow Fr Ken Garaci, fathers of mercy

Alright another question for y’all. Been hearing folks want more great priests, nuns, monks, religious etc on the app - esp. lesser well known. I agree. Who should we add?
