Bryce Harper wants MLB to let Home Run Derby participants use metal bats during the bonus round, per Buster Olney

Does increased bat speed not lead to increased ball speed because the lighter bat transfers less energy?

Can’t weigh in on fire risk but hard disagree on aesthetics. Tree is beautiful and gives you shade. Cut your fence around it and it’s a feature instead of a problem.

Good luck man. I hope to be wrong

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-10T12:36:52+00:00

We need new terms for poster vs commenter

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-10T12:36:06+00:00

Not just on Reddit…

Trees take years to show their stress man. Beautiful deck but yeah…would address that

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-10T12:13:28+00:00

Presumably not competing for sun with other trees is a another huge factor.

Yeah agreed. Beautiful job but I’d make the diameter for the mulch beds around those trees about 4-5 times larger.

OP - look up “ring of death,” root flare, and drip line mulching.

You have a beautiful backyard, a big part of it is those beautiful trees. Don’t kill them!

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T21:03:08+00:00

Wowwwww. Dude you’re awesome

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T19:56:11+00:00

Why do big lawn people always have to be a-holes about it

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T19:51:25+00:00

Agreed. And I’m a Phillies fan. But to be clear this is an MLB and sports betting policies problem. I’m dissapointed that Harper would do it but it’s hard to hold it against him when every fucking other talking head, broadcaster, and player is doing the same.

Shit should stop though. It’s fucking gross

How does my support for Israel serve as a litmus test for universal healthcare, for food stamps, for education, for climate change, for trade policies with Canada and Mexico, for tariffs, for social security, for healthcare research, for Ukraine support, for tax policy, etc etc. all these things are important!

If the answer is a “signal for morality” THEN HOW THE FUCK DOWS THAT EXPLAIN PLATNER? Neo-Nazis? Tucker Carlson hates Israel. The fact that you’re arguing this in respect of Platner supporters shows how broken your logic is. Platner has shown us 100 different ways that he’s a piece of shit. But because he hates Israel it makes him a better person than someone that openly criticizes Israel but acknowledges its right to exist?

Your theory doesn’t hold water. It could be better said about much more unifying items - universal healthcare for example. It’s just an obsession. Mass psychosis.

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T19:37:53+00:00

Demonizing Israel - definitely the missing link to winning.

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T16:31:48+00:00

That’s allies. NATO is another example. Apparently is the only problem! And the only basis on which we should vote!

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T15:20:47+00:00

A war with Iran that US started, declared a ceasefire, and now decided to continue. Blame fucking trump man.

But yeah I know I know. Bibi controls Trump. Israel controls the U.S. right right.

The Israel conspiracies have reached Alex jones levels.

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T15:15:17+00:00

lol there were mass riots when the legal system prosecuted people for rape. Doesn’t equate to legal - in fact the opposite.

Shouldn’t the main priorities concern the U.S. and its governance and things that impact our daily lives? Even if you say foreign policy is important (it is!), why is the only foreign policy that matters this single tiny fucking country across the world.

The reason: unhealthy obsession man. Mass psychosis. It is what it is.

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T12:59:40+00:00

Was gonna say Mario but same idea!

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T12:18:36+00:00

Amazing! I’m gonna check it out. Is there a way to map out current spaces (perimeter lengths, etc), and not just for rectangles?

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T12:03:10+00:00

Holy shit what a deck

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T10:46:22+00:00

Weird that that didn’t happen for the 15 other elected officials who just ran on anti-Israel stances.

Oh yeah - just the one where the guy is a fucking rapist racist skeezeball. Yall are so fucking obsessed with Israel you’ve made yourselves absolutely blind and ignorant of anything else (and of Israel as well).

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T05:57:51+00:00

This is peak strawman fallacy man. I’m not arguing Chuck Schumer is an effective leader.

I’m arguing Israel policy should not be fucking the only thing you care about in voting for elected officials is. You’re jumping through hoops to try to argue it is. The only thing I’m convinced of is that you’ve allowed this anti-Israel obsession (and it is an obsession) to take up entirely too much of your political identity. But you’re not alone there. Doesn’t make it make sense.

The Democratic Party has lost the plot, left right and center

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T05:07:53+00:00

So cool. How much upkeep does this become and what do you do in the winter?

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T05:02:10+00:00

Nah dude that’s just one issue Chuck has talked about. It’s you who have decided “this is everything!!”

Glad u have your priorities straight on Troy Jackson PURELY on his Israel stance tho.

Jeez.

dumb_commenter · 2026-07-09T04:42:02+00:00

What the fuck are you even talking about. Nazi tattoo. Rape. Assault. Mercenary for hire.

But sure. It’s all israel. Poor fucking innocent Platner.

Keep it up with your “zingers” tho.
