  1. is it a show about trucker caps?
  2. it's worse than that. the rest of his contract is tied up in this:
  3. In his day, Cobb was an excellent hitter. But he never had to play against a Luis Arraez....or a Satchel Paige, for that matter.
  4. Brady threw for 5300+ and 43 TD at 45 last season. Rodgers has thrown for over 4500 once in his career. Plus he is a bit of a choker. 1 SB a million years ago. Manning too has a rough playoff record with 7 one and dones. Brady wins games, particularly in the playoffs.
  5. One more time….He dominated the players he faced. They weren’t the only n or necessarily the best pro baseball players of the era. Pretty simple. A time machine would likely allow us to see a presteroid Bonds hitting 100 HR a season against 1920s MLB pitchers and Ruth struggling to get 30 vs 1990s-2000s pitchers (for instance).
  6. Bills lost to the Jags 2 weeks after the bye... Also, despite only 1 bye and longer season, the playoffs featured more great games than I've seen in one season in a while.
  7. When you said that more likely than not, these were weaker than the settled cases, it raised my question. It also seems counterintuitive that the Asley Solis case in particular is more likely than not weaker than the settled cases. She was the one where he has admitted that she was crying after their encounter. Plus Watson's lawyer has implicated him publicly saying he was seeking "happy endings" and used so many therapists in the hopes of getting them.
  8. why do you think the ones who won't settle most likely have the weakest cases?
  9. lol....stop. I will agree with your statement that he had 55 seconds of career highlights though...
  10. They would offer the least on the cases that could cost them the most?
  11. more money than who? the plaintiff's attorney and his firm or the defendant?
  12. An innocent man with 300 million earned in what would be 10 years isn't worried about legal fees to prove his innocence.
  13. an hour later, his own agent said he'll likely be back
  14. Dude; the "Dead Ball Era" (dirty brown scuffed balls falling apart after being used for an entire game, which made it throw erratically, hard to see and hit) ended ion 1920 (prior to this, Ruth hit a max of 29 HR in a season), after a guy got killed by a pitch. Thus began the Live Ball Era: "Rather than change the construction of the balls, which remained consistent between the transition from the "dead-" to "live-ball eras",[1] rule changes were instituted around how the balls were treated. Starting in 1920, balls were replaced at the first sign of wear, resulting in a ball that was much brighter and easier for a hitter to see. Additionally, pitchers were no longer allowed to deface, scuff, or apply foreign substances to the ball. The impact of the rule changes was felt almost immediately. In 1920, the game changed from typically low-scoring to high-scoring games, with a newfound reliance on the home run. That year, Babe Ruth set a record for slugging percentage and hit 54 home runs (smashing his old record of 29). Aiding in Ruth's success was the fact that he held the bat lower and swung with an uppercut, essentially trying to hit home runs. " Soooo...... the very year the new ball rules (fresh and white!!), Babe Ruth gives from 29 to 54 HR!
  15. I don't think they have filed as a class . That wouldn't make sense for the plaintiffs.
  16. I don't think they would have been tried together. If one of their stories doesn't hold up under cross, it shouldn't have much effect on another plaintiff's case. I assume they have all been deposed.
  17. exactly. he was an outlier.
  18. read the OP yes, i've said that several times now. Brady has been a dominant QB for decades against far better players than Ruth faced.. He is the GOAT. Ruth was "more dominant" is his day because he played a bunch of white guys only (for one)--which tempers his all time ("ever") dominance. Shall I say it again? Use crayonz? lol
  19. I can't really argue for things I haven't claimed as true so I'll let you rant at the mirror now. Your act is as stale as ever.
  20. You can't agree with it....then you lay out the argument proving my point. Thank you. Also, the best athletes of the day were more likely working for a living after, say, college instead of playing baseball. Settle down. Instead of stomping, you are tripping over your untied shoelaces. I didn't say Brady is more dominant, just that he has been great for a long period of time in a far more complex and difficult sport against the best athletes. Ruth clearly did not (see below). You, on the other hand, claimed that without Ruth, "all of sports would have died". You support that silliness by saying citing articles saying he saved baseball (which I have already agreed was true). And something about Bill Russell... Pitchers have always scuffed the balls and doctored them with substances. But I'm sure you knew that. "Back then", baseball was completely white. It wouldn't become brown until 1945--10 years after Ruth left the game. Any suggestion that Ruth played against "the best athletes of his time" is plainly false.
  21. I have already said Ruth saved baseball. Doesn't change that had he not existed, there would have been no sports in existence to make it to the TV era. That's just ridiculous. Have someone nearby you read it out loud if you're not sure of this. Brady didn't change sports or football. You're confabulating and fabricating arguments to rail against--- once again gone off the deep end in your patriots paranoia. But...as a former performer, this is all more likely just an act....an ongoing troll job. No one would truly think this way... a few years ago there were too many HRs--they blamed the balls Now there are far fewer...they are blaming the balls. You make it sound like they were tossing sawdust filled socks back then.
  22. Medical school isn't meaningful training (you specifically said "not shadowing"). If you are concerned about a Cardiology NP not being up to snuff for your initial consult, then you certainly may request to be seen by the MD--be prepared to wait much longer for an appointment where he/she will also just order labs/EKG/ECHO/Stress test, just like the midlevel would have done. This is how it has worked in this country for decades because there aren't enough specialists in most communities to see every patient. How or why this would, in 2022, be news to you...is a mystery. wtf?
  23. That's why the place to start is the Medicare local reimbursement. Multiple products make it straightforward to get local pricing info--in fact to make obvious if your hospital is in compliance.
