Mr. WEO

By that math the Mets have owned that town maybe half a dozen times in 35 years.

I can be convinced. But you really haven't given anything but cliches and a personal anecdote. Spend some time there

Spend some time there. It's exciting when both teams are both doing well (extremely rare, given the Mets seasons), but to say things like "and it's not even close" without any primary knowledge isn't much of an argument for your point. Even their attendance numbers aren't close.

I'm not arguing---don't have to. You clearly said NYC "will always be a National League town". Sure, many years ago, the Giants and Dodgers were hugely popular. Since they've left, the Mets have 2 WS wins in their history. Other than posting these cliched "bougie" vs "blue collar" (you've never been to the Bronx) labels, how did you conclude this?

Misconstrued?? You posted that your ideas "resonate with the readers", as though that's not weird. What readers? WTF?? You haven't spent much time in "NYC" Cy Young winner. Top athlete?

2 Chargers not the Div winner.

Oh yeah...he's of of your readers! But excellent point: because he's not MJ, Magic or Larry (forget the fact that the latter 2 played on teams loaded with stars), Durant is Eichel. Wait til he reads that...

resonates with readers?? anyway…Durant came back from a ruptured Achilles into the crazy shoe that the Nets became with chronic malcontent Hardin, chronic drama queen Kyrie (great leader of men right there…) and now hopeless softee Ben Simmons. Durant has been the constant. Yes he’s had some issues with his social media stuff and he’s injured more in his 15th year. But fraud? Eichel for sure, Durant no. but by all means, keep your “readers” resonating with this pure gold take machine!

guy just compared Durant to Eichel

why are any pitchers on the list?

lol deGrom

59 of the original 135 included in the study were still in the league at least 3 years after the injury. The positions with the highest % of post injury players in that group were QB, OL, FS, DE. Another study (cited in this one) showed skill players drafted in highest rounds had the worst outcomes after injury. All of the limitations of this study brought up in this thread were clearly discussed by the authors in this paper.

Hard to say-pretty fringe player. He wouldn't have been included in the study cited by the OP.

I remember when all the Christians went to the Lions...

Any Art Donovan interview is pure gold.

were your 217 other posts this awesome? discuss...

He will be on the sidelines dissecting the plays for Josh!

Great point. Is receiving a massage "performing an act"? It way hinge on concepts of social contract. Also the "foreseeability" would likely be the controlling factor.

Barkley will earn a bitcoin every 3 weeks on the PS.

He was the only one. The rest of Congress yawned.

There won't be. Political suicide. Remember all the political interest in Spygate? No? There was none. It was crazy old Arlen Specter on a solo mission to get anyone interested in Congress. Zero takers. Turns out that Specter was just carrying the water for Comcast, one of his biggest contributors that was in the middle of a beef with the NFL. Congress won't kill the NFL by eliminating the anti trust exemption. Lok at MLB--they have experienced major cheating and doping scandals. The latter resulted in players getting hauled in front of Congress for......nothing.

There aren't 100 people who will pay $20,000 for PSLs for outside seats.

Hard to say if they would have kept him. He played on only 1/3 of the snaps in the 12 appearances in 2020. In the 6 games before he was injured last season he didn't do much. He went on IR so no one knows what they would have done. He has no post-injury data. He's a free agent.

I wouldn't have thought you referring to animal studies. You state that non controlled studies results "may or may not have real world significance" and yet also state that control matched studies with statistically significant results which "may also not be significant in the real world". This is the basic truth of most of what is published all the time. It doesn't make them untrustworthy results.

Porquay......?
