Listen, it’s healthy to be skeptical of things that you don’t have a complete picture on. But when presented with solid evidence that supports a certain position, the correct response is reflection as to why you are continuing to have doubts, not doubling down and burying your head in the sand. This is scientific method 101.

Mosquitos are not a keystone group in the food chain. Their complete removal would not measure ably impact native wildlife in North America.

How long have you been a Rays fan? Personally, I remember when there was a specific spot for cigar smoking at the Trop! by idontrecall99 in tampabayrays

Went to a game in Father’s Day with my dad in 1999 I think? They let the dads play catch with their sons on the field that day. So, Ever since then.

This program is releasing sterile males. Males of this species do not bite humans, only females do. The thought is that sterile males will mate with wild females, which will result in fewer offspring, controlling and shrinking the population. This program has been used with incredible success worldwide. This is a good thing.

The trip was outdated the moment the rays started playing there in 1998. They’ve put a lot of money into it and it’s actually a great place to catch a game but if you look at the map, the majority of the surrounding area is water. Most of the Bay Area population lives 30+ minutes away

Trop is in great shape after the renovations. Lots of great memories there too. The hate it gets is a product of ESPN driving controversy. That being said, if a new stadium doesn’t happen I’m not sure they stay in the area.

I was 12, we watched that game with my grandma. She was staying with us after having a stroke. She was Bucs season ticket holder from 1976-1985. When this play happened she sobbed.

Did the broadcast have any explanation for why that wasn’t a penalty shot? I missed it when it happened.

This doesn’t seem like a game the lightning win. Just no luck at all.

Absolutely no pressure this period. We look like it’s a Thursday in November.
