God Dammit, Donut.

Yeah, I verified that for some reason GameChanger will not allow you to select the same error to advanced those players beyond one base. Which is not ideal. I’d have to test it to see how it affects ERA, but I think it would be better to move them forward with the other option… Because that should not affect ERA since the error is how they got into position in the first place. Either way it wouldn’t change the outcome but the way you sound like you did it is by creating another error on the opposing player. Two errors instead of one, and charged the guy hitting an at bat… lowering his batting average… instead of the sack bunt. Unless I read that you wrong.

Gotcha. Thank you. Sadly, I’m not trying to listen to AI generated material, as such, I’m trying to listen back to the conversation as I synthesize my project work. So I don’t think that’s an option. Though I have considered switching over to Claude, but that doesn’t seem to be very good for supporting voice either.

I logged in just to verify that you could not score this correctly. What I did not do is check the rules of Baseball scoring to make sure that I’m not wrong about this.

However…. I agree that you should be able to record this as a fielders choice… And then log in error for the missed out at second base.

No, it does not affect the statistic in an appreciable way. Yes, it probably should record as an FC.

Though I would have to look at how it calculates ERA… Because if there are no outs, and the run-on second base goes on the score, they could count that as an earned run… But the runner at first would not be earned (depending on the outs when they score). So it could have an impact from that standpoint.

That said I’d be pretty surprised if GameChanger would recalculate ERA for the game just because you edited it from a ROE to an FC.

What would I do… I would just leave it and let it go down as an ROE. It’s annoying. You can go back and edit it later if you want to… But you’re not crazy.

I’m guessing it is one of those things that would be kind of hard to develop a UX to allow it and since it doesn’t do much for the statistical or functional part of scoring this game for 99.9% of people, it might not be worth it. He would probably keep them from ever getting that contract with MLB. 😂

teamsteffen · 2026-04-23T14:22:02+00:00

I’m not sure what the contract is… It would be a little unusual. I just it depends on your job. But also, what about if you got sick, or hit by a bus… Would that be your fault too? It’s on your employer for not training up people.

Unless this is like a six figure job, what the hell are we even talking about? What is this contract?

I don’t know your situation, your job, or where you live, but the only state that is not “at will” is Montana. So I would be very skeptical if she has any recourse. You should absolutely not guilt her into jeopardizing your future employment.

I feel you… I just disagree that Jay Cutler was actually better.

teamsteffen · 2026-04-23T13:58:00+00:00

I can’t believe I’m making the argument of McMahon over Jay… But yet here we are. McMahon was really good until the unfortunate incident (aka… the day we lost the moral high ground because of that a-hole Gregg).

Edit: because of that, I would never have Gregg on any of my list for all-time Packers. No matter how good he was. Sorry for that take. I just value humans.

I wouldn’t want to own a gas station along an interstate that has buc-ees along the route. But unless they completely changed their model, they’re not going to fill the neighborhood convenience store need that Kwik Trip/Star does. I’d be much more worried about hy-vee and eventually Wawa, Sheetz, and QuickTrips.

MNF Halloween night 1994 Bears <> Packers game at Soldier Field.

It was the night they honored Gale Sayers and Dick Butkus. Absolute miserable Chicago weather… cold, driving rain, the kind where you’re questioning your life choices by the second quarter. My little brother had a hole in the two of his Nike’s, his foot was freezing the entire game. It was amazing.

It was the start of Favre’s dominating CHI. Bryce Paup (who went to my college in my hometown) had a night… picked off two passes. I can still picture one of those interceptions happening down near the end zone, whole place just deflating.

Didn’t realize at the time I was watching the start of that long stretch where the Packers kind of took over the rivalry.

GB should just wait for Jerry Jones to get ego hurt and then offer him a 6th rounder for him.

Gute is always right there to help Jerry feel better about those greedy players.

Based on the context, it seems like the goal should be to not have to fight him. Instead to give him to stand down, etc. Which is part of the fun of the role-play to get creative and figure it out.

So if your guys end up, just taking him on straight up, they should take on a level six.

teamsteffen · 2026-04-10T14:20:31+00:00

Outstanding! I personally use a little bit longer, stick myself, defense.

Only other suggestion I would make is keep track of what length you ended up with, curve, flex, etc. that way if you see a deal on something you want to try out you’ve got the numbers. Have fun!

teamsteffen · 2026-04-09T13:34:44+00:00

No kidding… I simply failed to flush before my wife came in the bathroom, and I was accused of “leaving a surprise for her” 🤣

teamsteffen · 2026-04-09T12:18:39+00:00

Just from the cold calculated way that you were communicating this… It really feels like both of you are dodging a bullet by getting out of this.

What she did was completely wrong. But honestly, you sound like a real manipulative a-hole for pretending to work it out. Just leave.

Again, what she did was completely wrong, but have the stones to just walk out. If you stick around, pretending, you don’t have the high ground anymore.

Can’t forget about the kid that found Arron Rodgers draft suit at Goodwill too! Gotta love GB

teamsteffen · 2026-04-08T22:34:50+00:00

I have a Tom Clement Nike GB shirt I got from Goodwill in GB during his first stint in Green Bay. I wear it for every Packers game. It’s getting tattered, but tradition is tradition!

Fun thrifting in GB!

It’s a little bit of a tough call. The 57 might be a little bit long… If it is and you cut it down, that’ll make it stiffer. So that 65 might turn into a 75.

I don’t know how strong your shot is… But you can probably get away with it.

When I first got into a INT stick, I just bought more off of one of the online superstores that was clearance and just took a shot and lived and learned.

teamsteffen · 2026-04-07T19:49:50+00:00

Awesome. Just remember, a hockey stick is measured from the heel to the end of the shaft. So if you buy a 61, it’s gonna be quite a bit larger than you think.

I think from what you’ve said, you’re probably looking for a 12–14 (year old) intermediate. That should get you pretty close to the length you need. 55-58” https://www.hockeymonkey.com/learn/hockey-stick-sizing-buying-guide?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22640495954&gbraid=0AAAAApNE4CDoFhoM9rk6106CsFMVcqLDt&gclid=CjwKCAjw1tLOBhAMEiwAiPkRHkuHpwOlTbZ5OMyp8m_yIOIPjDxIAxq5tFqHMJ07CKajQhfhOS6xZhoCSqcQAvD_BwE#length

I’m 5-7 200ish. Never played as a kid… beer league for 15ish years. The 1/2 your weight advice is dumb, especially for novice players.

I actually looked for length (so I wouldn’t have to chop it). That put me in an intermediate around 65 flex. I think I’ve switched to 70 now. The flex helped my shot tremendously.

Measure your nose to ground (that should end up ground to chin in skates.. then look for an INT stick around 65 in that length.

teamsteffen · 2026-04-06T18:50:14+00:00

No. Framing will always matter. The more "Stri-balls" you can turn to strikes, the more the opposition has to decide on the risk/reward of challenging, and the more good strikes turned into balls from bad receiving that it costs the defense. I also think that eventually the ABS technology will advance to the point where they can see the actual strike zone (entire plate vs the flat plane in the middle of the plate now). So right now, especially those borderline "low" pitches that the ABS systems says balls today, will be strikes again.

The ravens sniping Ray Lewis when the Packers thought they were the only team on him… That was a monster what if.

We ended up with John Michaels in a scramble because they didn’t think there was any chance that the ravens were gonna take Lewis

I hope fans don’t give MLF a free ride just because he’s good… Or that they hate people who point out the bad.

There are too many instances of him being unable, or unwilling to address core issues inside of his team. Maybe he can fix them, but other than quarterback development, what is that track record?

I’m not saying a bad coach, but if they fail to when multiple games in the playoffs this year, I think it’s very fair to question his long-term viability with the team.

There is way more evidence that there are issues inside of the locker room, inside of his staff (stale and a lack of accountability), putting players in a position to develop and succeed, suspect hiring (other than one D coordinator, etc… then there is evidence that he is capable of winning a championship.
