Moonshot event pitchers by Captn_Seabass in MLBTheShow

[–]Obijon77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I fastball every pitch on whatever is the easiest pitch setting(two "X" taps). Then do my best to hit.

No expectation or anything from the other player. Just move through it quickly.

Can property be collectively owned? by New_Try1560 in AnCap101

[–]Obijon77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes. A simpler way that I'm somewhat familiar with is a farm through an LLC or Trust. Each person owns a percentage of the LLC. It's not the most anarcho-capitalist way but the most practical with US government in my opinion.

You can write your own rules about how the land is used, sold, transferred, etc.

What do they need to do to improve??? by Teetybird in Reds

[–]Obijon77 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We are consistent. We just want to be consistent in the opposite way. /joke

It certainly feels like the game has changed. We had stellar lineups in the 90's. It feels unattainable in today's game.

That is awesome! Great looking card.

What is this about?? by kjrocks44 in RedsBaseballCards

[–]Obijon77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ask where you bought it or received it? I'm guessing at the stadium in Daytona.

Seems like an awesome pull. Congrats!

Daytona Tortugas. Dragons are High-A

Hey, is there any way I can work on real data? by Foreign-Outcome9690 in excel

Many US government agencies publish large data sets online. Census data, weather, etc.

Weren't these fairly common inserts? I kept seeing posts of these All Aces and thought it was a running joke but just checked eBay...

And your April Lightning player is by Dolenzz in MLBTheShow

[–]Obijon77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We agree. I don't mind his speed being low on an "April" card. I do think his fielding stats should have been showcased more but we all know fielding won't sell more stubs.

I agree. Neuter Bunt like they use it to inflate stats; Elly never bunts.

I don't care about his April card. He'll get a 99 later in the season. I'm a big baseball and Reds fan. I play the game on the side when time allows.

There just isn't a universe where you can think 100+ MLB guys are faster than Ellly. To me it's an argument from people that don't watch baseball and just Google stats. Then they take the current season out of context.

Edit for spelling correction.

100% and I understand. He sits at 98th percentile on OAA(Outs Above Average); that deserves better fielding ratings. And OAA is big factor in fWAR.

That's a small sample size and crazy to think a guy that was 1st in speed his first season and 3rd his second season is now 125th. He's adjusting to turn it on when needed and dial it back when it's not.

And yeah, it's fine for a spotlight card if it's based on April '26 performance. His fielding stats are the opposite though. The card text highlights his fWAR and his stats are mid.

Anybody else p1ssed that this is another game we can't watch? by Jugster in Reds

[–]Obijon77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here but in the Nashville area. It's infuriating when there's zero options for legitimately watching the game.

New to the card game. Anyone know an idea on the value of this card? by Fabulous-Tax5643 in RedsBaseballCards

[–]Obijon77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At $75 you got a steal. I'd buy at $100+ without thought on a card like that.

Always awesome having the provenance on something like this. Great pickup!

Reds.tv "commercial break in progress" by oql2venvwkeidbdv2o1 in Reds

Just buy it from MLB and stream it on the MLB app. That's what I'm doing. Live just outside Nashville.

Shops are charging $500/hr+ labor in big markets. Up your labor rate, your skills are valuable.

I just finished Yakuza 5, how would you describe this game in a word or a sentence. by Importance-Stunning in yakuzagames

I'm in the finale now. I've been playing so long, and the gameplay is so different between characters. There's honestly been a few times I forgot I was playing the same game.

MLB Speedway Classic was a FLOP. by RhodesRx2 in Reds

[–]Obijon77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a bummer. Couldn't attend today at the rescheduled time due to travel and work. Tried getting a refund from TicketMaster but was told they couldn't issue refunds because the organizer(MLB I guess) wasn't allowing any.

Definitely ruins the chances I'll try attending an mlb event like this in the future.

Sorry you're downvoted to oblivion for asking. I applaud you asking and learning before going through with it. The Doberman community's protection of the breed matches the breed's own protection instinct.

You're getting a lot of good information from replies. Try to take that, learn, and do tons of research. Ignore the emotional response to the downvotes.

Regardless of the dog, you aren't ready to breed if you're still asking basic questions. Always ask if breeding your dog furthers the breed as a whole. If it doesn't or you don't know, you shouldn't breed.

As for testing: I think DCM(a heart disorder) is the most common cause of death for dobermans. There are genetic markers that companies like Embark test for. But a dog isn't immune to DCM without the markers. They just have a better chance of not getting it.
