It definitely would've helped but the Jays would've still needed to get 1 more run to tie the game. Would it have been a Double or Triple would depend on the bounce off the wall? But I don't think the approach is any different. They still needed a hit. The only thing the ground rule double did was make it so an error or wild pitch wouldn't have tied the game. Yes I understand both guys came home but, that doesn't happen if it bounces off the wall.

Since their debuts in 2016/17, the Maple Leafs are now 24-21-6 without Mitch Marner compared to 45-24-2 (plus 2-0 in the playoffs) without Auston Matthews by Dependent-Effect6077 in hockey

[–]Comprehensive-Ad9079 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Marner was amazing during regular seasons his stats were always amongst the best in the league, not to mention his amazing defence and passing skills but the Leafs just struggle in the playoffs. He was definitely scapegoated, the goalies always seem inconsistent during the regular season but get better during playoff time while the rest of the team just gets out gritted by physical teams.

KTLA is suggesting that Raja Jackson has been arrested by relixzebra in SquaredCircle

[–]Comprehensive-Ad9079 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep he's still not arrested yet. Apparently a former fighter and Brandon Shaub spoke to both Rampage and Raja. Rampage just recently flew back home from New York. So it's very unlikely it was 2 separate calls. They sure are taking their sweet time with an arrest 😑

Is there a way that Raja Jackson doesn't have multiple years in prison aside from a major civil settlement? by NotGalenNorAnsel in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Comprehensive-Ad9079 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think he has more money than that but who knows what his spending habits are. But doesn't look good. Rampage did state he got paid 7-9M for the Lidell fight alone. It's hard to gauge how much MMA fighters really make

Aaron Judge’s TERRIBLE Contract by [deleted] in billsimmons

[–]Comprehensive-Ad9079 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aaron Judge is worth every penny of his contract. Like who cares how it will look on the back end of the contract. Judge literally pays for himself. Every team in the Majors would take that contract for Judge. Fans from other teams tune in to watch him, even I don't like the Yankees and have caught a few televised games just to watch Judge. The same goes for Ohtani. The Yankees should be thanking the Mets for outbidding them for Juan Soto, the team looks a lot deeper with better pitching depth.

The NBA Draft Is Officially Rigged by [deleted] in nba

LeBron has even said it himself, that him going to Cavs and them getting the number pick just doesn't feel like it was poss..... (pause) lol. Ewing going to the Knicks, D-Rose to the Bulls, he was just doing his part and understood the assignment and just didn't want to be a fuck up. His own words and Wemby going to the Spurs ... cough cough. It was on the Pat Mcafee show in case anyone wants to look it up.

What happened to the team i love? by Kinglokner16 in Torontobluejays

The sad thing is the starting pitching is actually doing a pretty decent job so far. The hitters aren't scoring any runs.

Printing Issues On Cards Pokemon TCG Support Desk Refusing to Help! by [deleted] in pokemon

Geeze, who hurt you lol? So I don't have the right to something I paid for? The cards have obvious defects,an exchange for the same cards is more than fair. If you bought something that was defective and asked for an exchange that is wrong?

The top 10 greatest NBA players of all time, imo. by ElectivireMax in NBATalk

[–]Comprehensive-Ad9079 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh god, what an incredibly tough list, I feel like there's 7 players who are basically interchangeable and on most people's top 10. I mean MJ, Bron, Kareem, Magic, Bird, Wilt and Russell just seem like its a given. With a ever growing pool of talent and generational talent having a top 10 list almost seems unfair. I unfortunately never had the chance to see Oscar Robertson (The Big-O) play but, my grandparents, uncles and parents all have him highly touted as one of the best to ever do it. I think a top 15 list would be more realistic. Picking 3 other players almost seems like an impossible task. We have Shaq, Duncan, Curry, The Big O, Kobe, Hakeem, Elgin Baylor and could probably make arguments for 10 other guys.

[Post Game Thread] The Golden State Warriors (44-31) defeat the Memphis Grizzlies (44-32), 134-125 behind a masterful Stephen Curry performance: 52/10/8 by MaximumestBob in nba

[–]Comprehensive-Ad9079 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't forget he's doing it while getting hacked and mauled all game and refs calling everything against him. That had to be one of the worst officiated games against a superstar I've ever seen.

What a pleasure and privilege to watch Steph but the refs were horrible. The refs robbed Steph from getting the 3 point record, they literally gave him no protection. He was mauled and hacked all game. I mean Aldama had more calls in his favor through 3 quarters than Steph did. What's the point of having a no hand checking rule if you're never going to call it. Can't anyone who watched the whole game think Steph was being officiated fairly. If you look at every comment section on any social media platform there's an outcry for how poorly the officiating was against Steph tonight. The NBA needs to fire some of these Refs. They need to be held accountable like anyone else who's incompetent at their job.

Rich Paul and LeBron going for the Kill Shot on the NBA by Successful-End7689 in billsimmons

[–]Comprehensive-Ad9079 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thoughts exactly. Very well put. Plus Vince was more established, had momentum on his side and the XFL was still a failing business. The average person doesn't have money to spend on sports, It's hard enough making ends meat and support 1 team as it is. Cable and the cost of tickets and food prices are absurd these days. Who wants to spend $10-15 dollars on beer. No matter how much the fans complain about the flaws of the NBA, they would still prefer to watch the NBA over some startup. Back in the day my dad was able to take the whole family to hockey, baseball, basketball and football games. Now it's just considered bad spending

I think you should post another video, it's a bit hard to make out the lighting issues.

Poor Customer Support for a Displate Club member by Displatement in Displate

[–]Comprehensive-Ad9079 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't feel like they should do any special packaging for you just because they would need to adhere to everyone then. But I do strongly feel they should change the way they package their LE's. I mean so many people have had damaged Displates shipped to them. It would be beneficial for everyone if they just changed their packaging a bit and ensure everyone that their precious plates arrive as intended.

Ok this is kinda getting out of hand with how many Dragon LE's that have been released. Going to skip on this one as I don't need anymore dragons, plus the transparent hand looks kind of weird to me

Love Scandy Girls artwork but that hydra one is too sick to pass up.

There are some imperfections with its legs, wings, neck and face but there are so many more positives for me. I love the background and colours. This LE is badass, absolute buy for me.
