I was at a AAA game this summer that was experimenting with automatic review of ball strike calls. The umpires were not replaced. It was like watching tennis where line calls can be challenged.. Each team started the game with three pitch call challenges. If the challenged call was overturned, they got to keep the challenge. If it was upheald, they lost the challenge. Get three challenges upheld and you have no more challenges for the game. When a challenge was made, within 10 seconds an image was flashed on the scoreboard that showed where the pitch went in relation to the strike zone. It did not slow the game down, but did seem to get things right. I have no idea how the technology works, but it seems well accepted in tennis and I can see it being another needed improvement to baseball.

I've been watching baseball for 5 decades. The new antics don't bother me a bit. And it doesn't hurt in attracting younger fans to the game. The pitch clock has improved the game so much. Last night I was at a game that was 9-4 and completed under 2.5 hours. Lots of home runs, lots of strike outs....a great balance between offense and defense excellence. What really drove me nuts was all the glove adjustments, stepping out of the box or off the rubber that could lead to taking more than a minute to execute 1 pitch. Baseball seems like it's in a real growth mode right now.

Rejected means rejected...all gone away. And yes...the rejected find out who rejected them. And I've told everyone on of them that I honestly don't know who wrote the review when I rejected it. There are no names on it.

Those dead bodies stay on Everest....it's too complicated and risky to bring them down. And the lower levels of oxygen at the higher altitudes slow down decomposition. So climbers pass by hundreds of corpses making their way up the final segments of the climb....seems like a buzzkill to me. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/there-are-over-200-bodies-on-mount-everest-and-theyre-used-as-landmarks-146904416/

Rihanna did not get paid for that halftime performance, which has been the practice for at least 10 years now. Artists do it to get that 20-some minutes of prime exposure. Other performers in the show get paid the minimum union scale wage. The headliners cash in right after with a significant bump in music and merch sales right after halftime. And usually they launch a tour off of the appearance. https://people.com/music/why-rihanna-and-other-super-bowl-halftime-show-performers-dont-get-paid/

Don't know if this is "wild" but it is the most unusual thing I've seen. It was a Sunday night, usually slow in the club. I enter and there's a crowd of 7-8 guys. I get closer and see in the middle of that pack is an old guy lying in an adjustable hospital bed and hooked up to IV drip bags. The bed had the controler to raise up the top half to different positions. Dancers were taking turns climbing on to the bed with the old guy to give him lap dances. The younger guys were making it rain most of the time. Everybody in the place had a smile on their face, especially the old guy in the bed. I never got the full story on what was happening, but figured the old-timer was chronically ill but was bound and determined to get one more fun night in the club!

Really sad thing is that they are retiring his jersey Saturday. Seems like that should have been done 30 years ago.

Trump has never won a majority of the popular vote each time he's run before. What makes him think the third time would be the charm? His popularity rating is lower than it's ever been.

Best quote from the story: Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said at a press conference Tuesday. "You just want to go ‘c’mon man, have you lost the last three brain cells, or do you just have cabbage for brains?'"

The bad thing about getting a lap dance from an Asian is that an hour later you're horny again

Isn't the real public health concern here that neither of them should be vaping?
