    Odell Beckham Jr.

    Don't get it twisted, I like Norman too. Unlike Finnegan he can back his shit-talk up. My "immediate defense" was that the game was fun as shit to watch, at least from a neutral POV. I know for damn sure I'm rooting to see those two matched up again in the playoffs. As for the "style over...

    Odell Beckham Jr.

    I don't know what "more elite" means. For his position, I don't know how much more elite of a start to a career you could have than what Odell has had. And that's before you get into the fun-to-watch aspect, which IMO isn't even close (and, personal preference and all, but I'm not letting Mike...

    Odell Beckham Jr.

    Aside from Steph Curry, there is nobody roughly my age in sports right now more fun to watch. I don't see how that's even remotely controversial. edit- also his hair is fresh. Fight me. double edit- holy shit, Steph Curry is 27. I don't know if I can claim him in good faith. I'm tempted to...

    Odell Beckham Jr.

    Splitting this out from the gamethread because I think the coolest/apparently most controversial athlete of my generation deserves his own thread. I'll preface this by saying I watched way more Giants football than I ever could have wanted to this year and I have a huge mancrush on the guy. I...

    If they were really just two punks, then fine. Cut them, even. But they're the best players in the entire world at their positions. They don't distract from the game, they ARE the game. And if you really like football so damn much I'd argue that football-wise they brought out the best in each other.

    Takes away from the game? It was the best thing about the game! That game was fun as shit! I honestly don't understand why any of you watch football sometimes.

    Good point, man I wish all receivers and corners would shut up keep their heads down and get brain damage the Right Way.

    But, like, we saw him play against Butler. Butler isn't Norman. I don't know why everyone's acting like the extracurricular stuff was unprovoked. They both could have justifiably gotten ejected, and we'd all have been worse off for it.

    I love Odell, hero or villain. I don't get how you couldn't. That was the most entertaining game of the year.

    Red Sox to expand netting behind home plate

    Wrong poster, and I don't doubt that people care. I'm just saying it's dumb, because it is.

    Red Sox to expand netting behind home plate

    More than making sure they don't get rocked by one? And as was mentioned upthread, they'll still be able to toss them over. This is 100% the stupidest objection you could have to the netting.

    Red Sox to expand netting behind home plate

    Seconded. If you're a little kid lucky enough to sit that close, who cares if you get a ball? I used to beg my dad to take me to RFK and watch Chad Cordero blow saves from the $3 seats that might as well have been in Virginia. At some point you either like baseball or you don't.

    Swihart v. Vazquez: The Value of Framing

    I know, hence the last line in my post. Admittedly this probably wasn't the best thread for my question since I'm not making an argument one way or the other on the value of pitch framing, it's kind of a separate curiosity.

    Swihart v. Vazquez: The Value of Framing

    I get that it would even out theoretically, but I'm wondering if it always happens in practice over a full season. My takeaway from reading about framing was similar to Max's from the part you quoted; basically, if picking up a few extra strikes per game can add three or four wins, couldn't even...
