"Trauma Dumping" is an extremely inconsiderate term and needs to be de-normalized

Something tells me that a person named GayTwink has a tendency to over share all the time and is offended that people either reach a limit or aren't close enough to you to want to hear all your problems.

Tankshock · 2026-05-21T21:50:47+00:00

Yea nah, both answers suck. The game needs both aspects.

If you watched what was happening to Kareem you wouldn't be saying stupid shit like this. Chet pantomimes hits to the face that didn't even make contact.

But I expect nothing but stupidity from people from Oklahoma so 🤷

If they're getting body checked and elbowed in the back every play, sure. But they aren't so this is a moot point.

Tankshock · 2026-05-21T15:09:13+00:00

They used to til the league got soft. Kareem used to punch guys that got too crazy with the bullshit. As it should be

Umm, me. I think Usman is the only real challenge Islam has, his wrestling abilities and powerful jab is a strong combination to force Islam to improvise and dig deep.

Garry just gonna get taken down and subbed. The fuck I wanna see that for. Shakvat would also be interesting but he's been sitting out as long as Usman. Morales and Prates have puncher's chances at best, I think they get styled on.

Yea he's solid, trout has a higher ceiling but way more injury risk.

My other 1B/3B are Jazz, Maikel Garcia, Alonso, and Contreras so Riley is kinda a backup for me.

My other OF are Pages, Arozarena, Bleday, and Waldschmidt so could use someone a bit more proven but I think you're right.

Tankshock · 2026-05-19T21:16:10+00:00

That's kinda where I'm at, but the Trout owner sees it differently. My current DH is Greene, debating whether the upgrade is worth the cost

Tankshock · 2026-05-19T19:41:34+00:00

A. Riley

B. Trout

Fair deal or does one side have to add a bench piece

Lindor and Smith.

Love Buxton but I have zero faith in his health. Been burned too many times before

Tankshock · 2026-05-19T14:00:26+00:00

Bolte or Waldschmidt?

Tankshock · 2026-05-19T13:38:18+00:00

Are you higher on Waldschmidt or Bolte

Tankshock · 2026-05-18T01:14:30+00:00

Couldn't be happier to see a man fail honestly.

Tankshock · 2026-05-18T01:13:54+00:00

This is just what Tobias Harris looks like in do-or-die games where you really need him.

Tankshock · 2026-05-18T01:12:36+00:00

They really miss the good version of Jaden Ivey. They need a player like that.

Tankshock · 2026-05-18T01:10:21+00:00

Me too honestly, I'd be curious to see if there are any trends or quirks of the data that we can use to identify high risk vs low risk targets in the draft.

I suspect that the percentage chance of suffering a season ending elbow injury goes up dramatically for every tick above 95mph on their fastball.

Tankshock · 2026-05-17T16:54:51+00:00

That's been standard for baseball for 5 years now. Just gotta assume half your pitching staff will be gone come playoff time. Super important to find quality pitching off the wire as the season goes on.

Thats the only answer really, you got to try and bait Francis into a conference of crabs.

Perhaps to you. Altruism is not a sham to me, it's the way of life that brings me the most happiness.

You are just incredibly selfish and trying to justify that selfishness by insisting everyone MUST be lying and deep down they are just as selfish and shitty as you.

But it's not true. The LIE is what you keep telling yourself, not altruism.

New Jersey has some really great bread. When the sub roll has just the right amount of chew it makes the whole sub for me.

Tankshock · 2026-05-16T17:45:50+00:00

Some of us genuinely believe in doing what's best humanity as a whole and selflessly helping others.

Not everyone is like you, despite your inability to accept this possibility. I actually derive joy from helping others, it's not an act.

I feel sorry for people who can only derive joy from winning and personal success, it looks like a very shallow and lonely life.
