https://www.motownforums.com/discover/MotownForums.com - All ActivityenCalifornacation was like that for me. I watched the first 2 episodes and absolutely hated every single character. I know the point was to not like them, that they were sex-obsessed creeps, but you have to have SOMETHING in a character to latch onto.Sun, 17 May 2026 04:32:59 +0000Now we will hear a bunch of stuff. The only good Republican is a retired republican.Sun, 17 May 2026 03:17:25 +0000Cassidy should have stood up to RFKjr.Sun, 17 May 2026 03:07:02 +0000The Pistons’ 21-pt win tied an NBA record for biggest margin of victory for a Game 6 by a road team facing elimination, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Buffalo did the same with their 8-3 win at the Bell Centre tonight.Sun, 17 May 2026 03:02:49 +0000You can say that about a lot of things unfortunatelySun, 17 May 2026 02:49:16 +0000OPS of 5 Tigers hitters today: 308, 457, 464, 510, 588Sun, 17 May 2026 02:41:18 +0000That's what I meant about being able to track every play. When I was a kid, I would listen to Tigers game on the radio and keep a box sore. Every play would be tracked. And that has been done officially for every game for decades. That's what I meant by every play is tracked. That was beautiful and orderly and now it's gone. You described the pitcher stat problem. But what about the base runner? The runner gets credit for scoring a run without anybody even reaching base. That just throws the whole system out of order.Sun, 17 May 2026 02:25:43 +0000This is pretty big. Cassidy lost the primary and didn't make the runoff. Dem turnout is nearly equaling Republican.Sun, 17 May 2026 02:12:24 +0000but speaking of stats and ghost runner rule, I don't get how it can make any sense to charge any pitcher with that run. OK - so it is unearned, it's still a run he might not have allowed if that runner weren't put there. Since 'nobody' is charged with the runner appearing there, 'nobody' should be charged when he scores. But of course then they would have to add a column to a team's RA labeled 'ghost runners' otherwise runs charged to pitchers wouldn't total all runs. They are both bad solutions but I'd rather see the extra column in the stats because that is the way it should be done to maintain statistical consistency for the pitchers who pitch in extras.Sun, 17 May 2026 02:10:03 +0000LOL, This has nothing to with saber. It has to do with playing BASEBALL as it has always been played. By fundamentally changing the rules if the game to allow free baserunners, it is no longer baseball. You are creating wins and losses by changing the rules of the game because the real game is not giving you the result that you want.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:54:47 +0000Stats and keeping track of every play in baseball is all good and fine. The only problem I have with the saber side of stats is when people cherry pick stats. But the only thing that really matters, in the end, is wins and losses. Its why they play the game. And since the rules are exactly the same for every team, the results can't be described as "fake." Fake would be something that isn't real, not legitimate. The wins and losses are very real, whether we like them or not. TBH, the ghost runner really irritates me because it just doesn't seem like the Tigers, as a team, are very good at playing "small ball." I mean, with a runner at 2nd base and no outs? You don't even need a hit to score a run. And look at us...we even have an acronym for it...TTBDNS.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:39:16 +0000All throughout the history of the game, before the extra-base-runner rule, every event in the game was a real event that could be earned and tracked. That was part of the beauty of baseball. One of the things that has always appealed to me about baseball is that they didn't resort to cheap gimmicks to appeal to new fans. I really don't care what they do in other sports. I think the football overtime rules are stupid, but I don't care about the game enough to get upset about it. I would not mind if they eliminated ties in post-season. The rules of playing the game would still be the same as the tie games in regular season. They would just keep on playing in the playoffs.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:18:35 +0000He is taking a lot of crap for this. I say leave the man alone. He probably wanted to get home to spend time with his kids.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:14:49 +0000Biggest legacy of the goal was the Avs-Wings rivalry. If the Wings had lost to their Blues there would have been no Claude Lemieux-Kris Draper incident. The goal also eliminated any chance of Yzerman being traded.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:11:53 +0000I still maintain the money spent on signs held up at stadiums could go toward much better things.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:08:24 +0000Sports have different playoff rules. Football games can end in a tie during the regular season. Same with hockey. If baseball ended regular season games in ties, the playoffs would be different.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:05:33 +0000The last Keith AB was a disappointment. You want more than that from the guy hitting 320 when a single is exactly what you need.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:03:54 +0000I agree.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:02:28 +0000It's a win/loss according to the rules. It's just not real baseball. If it was real baseball, they wouldn't switch back to the traditional rules for the playoffs.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:01:46 +0000True. Of course what would be even better for the game would be to solve the risk factors for pitchers, then some other stuff could follow.Sun, 17 May 2026 01:01:18 +0000I don't think the rule is unfair or bad for the Tigers. I don't like the rule for baseball. As far as I am concerned, what's good for the game always comes before what's good for the Tigers.Sun, 17 May 2026 00:59:07 +00003 goals on 3 shots against Alex Lyon.Sun, 17 May 2026 00:56:37 +0000We did this in our softball league this week. We won the game, so it’s real.Sun, 17 May 2026 00:55:48 +0000I don't have any sympathy. Teams know the rules. If they don't want to invest in the skills to be better at getting a runner around from second base in 3 outs they are going to lose some close games to teams that do. Seems fair to me. On aesthetic grounds I don't like the rule either, but unless the game somehow changes to reduce the demands on pitchers, I don't see it going back. Compared to other sports, it's a better tie breaking system than football OT, way better than a hockey 'shoot-out' (but not the 3 on 3) and not as good as basketball where you can just add 5 min to the clock.Sun, 17 May 2026 00:55:15 +0000I'm not capable of watching a game for 2 1/2 hours and then just walking away if it goes to extra innings. I just have a problem with the use of the word "fake." The results are very real and totally effect the standings.Sun, 17 May 2026 00:53:43 +0000
