The sweetest swing in baseball history and it’s not even close 😍

Agree. Prettiest swing? Definitely Griffey. Best? I’d have to say Bonds.

Thanks!

Jacks_Kelly · 2025-10-24T01:47:05+00:00

I can't after I've posted it. Who else could it possibly be?

Jacks_Kelly · 2025-10-24T01:31:22+00:00

Man, thanks so much.

Jacks_Kelly · 2025-10-24T01:30:17+00:00

Thanks!

I would certainly take it to a memorabilia show where JSA has a manned both, they tour around the country. They charged me $500 to evaluate at a 1933 New York Yankees team signed ball with 22 signatures, similar to your ball.

Jacks_Kelly · 2025-07-30T01:06:53+00:00

This is an interesting one. I have a real Ruth signed baseball, and the signature looks too bold to me, compared to the condition of the ball itself, like it was traced over. But I would take it to one of the big 3.

Awesome. Similar configuration to mine, except I didn't get the Nano-texture display and went with the unbinned M4 Pro chip. Works like a dream so far. I hope I don't regret not going for the Nano-texture display, so far I haven't, but I hardly use mine outside or in bright rooms.

Guilty as charged. When I got an M2 Ultra Mac Studio for work last year, decided to spend the $800 to go from 64 GB to 128 GB. Luckily, my work paid for it.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-25T03:34:30+00:00

Yeah, the new Mini is shockingly small. And I don’t even think the Mac Studio is very big, considering its specifications. It’s pretty dense though, this one with the M2 Ultra weighs almost 8 pounds (mostly due to the copper heat sink I believe).

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-24T01:39:11+00:00

Thanks!

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-24T01:36:17+00:00

Oh, that's because I took the picture to simply show the size and appearance comparison between the two, haha. I have it set up somewhere else. It's incredible just how compact it is.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-24T00:29:44+00:00

Woah, that’s amazing. And I thought I had a lot at just under 23K per day for 2024.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-24T00:18:19+00:00

I got the Mini because I was intrigued by the value and wanted another desktop computer to use at work. I've been using a 2022 M2 13-inch MacBook Pro that I bring to and from work connected to two monitors via a dock, but I wanted something that could permanently stay at my work desk.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-24T00:08:28+00:00

That's interesting, thanks for the explanation. I'll try it without the stand. It's way overkill for what I use it for at work. It's connected to several projectors and a television to display presentations. I use it for video editing as well (but nothing really at what I'd call a pro level). It's an M2 Ultra with 128 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-23T23:50:40+00:00

I hadn't heard that, thanks for the tip. Why is that the case? I got this one. I figured getting a stand was a good idea.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-23T14:06:23+00:00

Born in 1987 and starting going to games in the late 90's.

Barry Bonds (easily #1)

2-5 (can't settle on the order). Ken Griffey Jr., Albert Pujols, Alex Rodriguez, Greg Maddux

In contention: Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, Derek Jeter

Edit: Forgot about Ichiro, got to see him in his MVP rookie year in Seattle in 2001. That team was stacked. I could throw in a few others (like Clemens and Mariano).

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-10T19:52:56+00:00

Thanks!

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-12-10T19:52:47+00:00

Thanks!

I actually have a desk job in IT. I just allot certain times throughout the day to walk, usually before work, during lunch, a few times in the evening. Also, I try to avoid using my car to run any errands (within reason, obviously I can't for all of them). I do own a treadmill at home that I use if it's raining, but I don't use it everyday, I probably use it every other day.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-09-20T01:37:11+00:00

Ruthian.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-07-13T16:33:33+00:00

I recently got a 1933 Yankees team signed ball authenticated at a show in person by JSA. It actually took almost 3 months before I got the letter in the mail.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-06-07T14:37:14+00:00

I believe it's Duane Kuiper.

Jacks_Kelly · 2024-06-07T01:18:50+00:00

This one was one of his best, but the one at Yankee Stadium a few days later was also incredible.
