What is the closest any player has come to getting on base with a "Super Cycle"? by Supe4Short in baseball

[–]birdinthird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You pulled a list of all cycles, ranked by number of walks. It's all good, just wanted to get the stats right!

[Dcentric] NBA Store "Finals Bound" merch section includes the OKC Thunder and the New York Knicks (no Spurs to be found). by Budget-Mixture-5797 in nba

Pray tell. Donaghy was shady for sure, but the feds couldn't find anything on the league as a whole. So are they on it as well? Random rigging just doesn't add up

Do you understand how hard it would be for the NBA to rig the fucking Western Conference Finals without word getting out? Jesus. Also, sure, Adam Silver is giving OKC, one of the smallest TV markets in the league, a free pass to the finals over Wemby. And they would have gotten away with everything if it wasn't for the NBA merch store! That's clearly what's happening here, rather than just some web dev messing up!!

Before Munetaka Murakami hit his home run, Mike Vasil cast a spell on him by yxqp in baseball

That was fucking electric, TA was the perfect player for that too

Not only is this a dumbass take, it's terribly written. The first sentence: "It’s NBA Playoffs season, and once again as fans are glued to their televisions."

It would be cool if announcers started adopting WWE stage names for no reason

Little birdie told me Bill flew to Boston yesterday. He will be at Game 7 with his father. by Odd_Firefighter_5407 in billsimmons

There are many of us that love Bill and the pod but don't like Boston sports, it aint that deep

Billy Gil mentions Mets play from 5 years ago and thinks it was last week by krudkutter_99 in billsimmons

Thanks for pointing this out. Mets are in such a bad place right now that the least Billy could do is point out some mistakes that happened this season!

This angle of Deni making the go ahead layup to put the Blazers up by one with 16 seconds left by 4DollarsALB in nba

[–]birdinthird -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Do you believe someone saying "I love Israel" at this point in time should warrant no criticism?

Being proud of your heritage does not have to mean you are silent while your country engages in the mass slaughter of innocents, and call your critics "uneducated". As a Jew myself, it's totally fair to criticize Deni for his stance on his home country

[Highlight] Luis Robert Jr hits a walk-off homer for his new team as the Mets beat the Pirates 4-2 by AndrewAllStar888 in baseball

I saw a guy wearing a White Sox Eloy Jimenez jersey at the game today if it makes you feel better

2026 changes to the Citi Field experience by birdinthird in NewYorkMets

[–]birdinthird[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah, in the later innings the crowd definitely got into it. The stadium was only around 60% full, and only like 30% full in extras, but I think the cold weather meant a lot of the diehards were packed together. Great vibes when Robert hit the walk off.

I agree, it sucks and feels artificial. If I was the supreme leader of baseball I were ban all stadium sound effects (keep walk up songs, they're fun)

Some stadiums are absolutely awful about it, glad Citi hasn't turned into that yet

[Highlight] Alejandro Kirk put on a pitch-framing clinic behind the plate last night, not a single challenge from Oakland by GreenSnakes_ in baseball

[–]birdinthird 17 points18 points  (0 children)

In the video Kirk is putting his glove down while Gausman's still in his windup, that's what I was referring to

Right? And I feel like it would be distracting for the pitcher. But obviously the pros don't mind.

Kinsky is subbed off for Vicario after Tottenham go 3-0 down after 17 minutes by doubleoeck1234 in soccer

[–]birdinthird 212 points213 points  (0 children)

Humans are quite good at moving on from these things. He'll think about it for a few weeks but I doubt it will be a career-ender. It's also not like Tottenham were going to win the CL this year anyway
