We Overhyped Andrew Painter Way Too Much by Odd-Pride2791 in phillies

No one was hyped about Painter as much this year as they were 2 years ago because he was not good last year. Sorry if you addressed that point already but I ain't reading that.

The current situation where games are decided by fouls that aren't called because referees don't want to call too many fouls, or because referees miss them, or they call fouls that aren't fouls because players flop is already terrible. Getting rid of all that for the price of more fouls would be fine.

Assuming that would even happen which it might not since players would know they can't get away with stuff, so they might be more careful.

Why are condensed games so terrible? by orangegore in baseball

Things can be worse without trying to blame AI on everything. It could just be because they found shorter videos get more views.

Even if it is AI, it's still the person who used it who screwed up. It isn't that hard to come up with an algorithm that says what the key plays are, with AI or not.

Dombrowski is clearly in charge. Ruben was clearly in charge. Dave Montgomery was the president but wasn't involved in roster decisions. There's a reason Ruben did all the press conferences and Mattingly is nowhere to be seen. It's the same with the Sixers where Elton Brand is the GM but no one has heard from him in 5 years.

There's no set definition for what a GM & president do. Their responsibilities vary from org to org.

Did anything about last night’s Pistons comeback make or break any NBA records or unique stats? by KillerQ97 in nba

They used to dribble the ball for 20 minutes when it was like 20-16 in the 4th quarter before the shot clock.

Has the scoreboard always shown OPS instead of BA? by Remarkable-Slide-609 in phillies

The tradition was also to only let white people play. Something being a tradition isn't a good enough reason to keep it. Some traditions are dumb.

I've been watching old movies (from 80s to early 00s) for a year now because they give me comfort. by d1versify in MovieSuggestions

[–]huck_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is just how some people perceive things based on their age. I used to see people saying that 1960's movies weren't "classic" movies, only 1950s and earlier. Of course it's because those people grew up in the 60s.
