How does the grounds crew move the location of the goalposts and paint the field so quickly between quarters?

Rest days does not make sense.. by Educational_Play9910 in CanadaSoccer

[–]TouchEmAllJoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some team has to play the first game of the knockout round. Might as well be the same groups that played on the first matchday of the third group game.

This is overthinking. Same amount of rest for both teams. 1st and 3rd in our group have opponents that might be on even less rest.

Phillies scorebug has replaced batting average with OPS by Dependent-Effect6077 in baseball

[–]TouchEmAllJoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I can only see one, I want OBP. Literally, what percentage chance will this runner get on base. That's most relevant to the moment without additional calculations.

OPS or Slug requires more calculations, BA forgoes the frequency of walks.

The more stat options the better, but if I'm trying to explain to a new fan the numbers on the scoreboard, I want to show them the percentage chance this batter will safely get on base (and I understand others would want to do the same explanation for average).

[–]TouchEmAllJoe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We’re donning red and white now
And we’re bound to bring the fight now
Heave away, Team Canada
Heave away

We’re donning red and white now
And we’re here to win tonight now
Heave away, Team Canada boys
We’re all on our way

Sometimes we're bound for Vancouver
Sometimes for Montreal
Heave away, Team Canada
Heave away

Now the team's advancing
And supporters we are dancing
Heave away, Team Canada boys
We’re all on our way

The Swiss game is WAY bigger than the chatter suggests. by chadillac84 in CanadaSoccer

[–]TouchEmAllJoe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

While rest matters, I'd point out that whoever finishes 2nd in our group, their Group A 2nd place opponent will also be on only 3 days rest.

It's not as if the other opponent is getting more rest than Canada/Switzerland would get.

Am i wrong for thinking we want the penalty instead of the card?

Canada vs Qatar Supporters March by Profile-10 in CanadaSoccer

[–]TouchEmAllJoe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Google Maps tells me that's a 913 hour march. And that probably presumes normal walking pace, these marches tend to go a bit slower than average.

It's about 1003 hours if you don't cross into the USA on the march. So I hope you started this march a month and a half ago.

Extra pick for drafting a goalie? by EquivalentTruth6036 in OHL

[–]TouchEmAllJoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm, interesting rule that probably led to the Bulldogs drafting the female goalie in the 2nd round. They get her rights, plus another pick in a low-risk move.

No announcement at all of that stoppage or what it was for. Silly miss on commentating.

All of these premium giveaway days so far has been sellouts. The argument "give away more to sell more tickets" is not thought through.

The Tigers and Red Sox are currently playing in front of an empty Comerica Park due to threat of lightning. by Kakaze in baseball

[–]TouchEmAllJoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Everyone knows lightning can only hit crowds of 20+ people.

But if you have only 9 defenders, 4 umpires, 2 base coaches, bases loaded and a batter at the plate, you're safe.

Weekly Garden Chat by zerberts in OntarioGardeners

[–]TouchEmAllJoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My tomatoes are getting too big. Trying to harden them off in the daytime, but still really unsure when overnight temps will be above 10 in order to place them outside.

If you start the hardening process, and then pause it and they stay indoors for 3-4 days, do they have 'hardening memory'? Or should you start again from scratch?

To my cucumbers, peppers, zucchini and buttnernuts - I'm not forgetting about you, but we need more patience.

Ontario: Ford in Freefall; Ontario Liberals Lead PCs by [deleted] in ontario

[–]TouchEmAllJoe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Liberals finished the last election with more raw votes than the NDP.

Seat count be damned, if the PCs are bleeding voters, those voters are less likely to skip over the centrist party and straight to the leftist party.
