@KyleClark Nut-cuttin time at the Ball?

@LisaPhin21 @KyleClark A more moderate GOP candidate or at least one with less baggage probably would have survived the blue wave.

@KiraMcCroden @ashleymayer Didn't Roald Dahl seduce a congresswoman whose husband ran Time Magazine?

@StatlineScout @ZachGmil32 I don't envy people who have to do their best to predict hitter aging curves in the era of velocity-maxing. Historical data (much of which is tainted by PEDs lengthening age curves 2-3 decades ago) has to be almost worthless, no?

@suburbanwinebro I'd say the same about any business as usual nominee. Not being Trump didn't work when Trump was out of office and it certainly won't work after he's term-limited. At some point they need to give voters a reason to vote *for* them and not just against unpopular GOP admins.

@ZachGmil32 @StatlineScout This is projecting a roughly 50% decline from his peak over the next 5 years. Maybe his decline will look more like a cliff - that's always a risk - but he's got a pretty darn high peak to decline from.

@AndrewPetcash @dklineii There's a great game on this Friday. South Africa vs. France. The No. 1 team (SA) vs. either the No. 2 or No. 3, depending who you ask.

3:30 ET, free to watch on the RugbyPass TV app.

@AndrewPetcash @dklineii Get into rugby. It's soccer pacing with (American) football action. Takes a couple weeks of watching to figure out the rules around the breakdown, which I'm convinced is what's kept it from catching on.

@KathleenS44 @RealAmVoice Maybe I'm missing something but how is saying "God is great" in another language a call for violence?

@antistuff @commish_pelton @DeepNotShallow (yes, I know taxes were cut by initiatives but Polis supported all of them and opposed Amendment 87)

[nwcodad.bsky.social @nwcodad]

@antistuff @commish_pelton @DeepNotShallow Like, I get you don't like the guy but if you brand Jared Freaking Polis a socialist - the guy who cut income tax three times and property taxes five times - don't expect the label to have any meaning when you try to fearmonger about Kiros.

@rossjensen @idiots_league @CBSScottWhite It's tough because very few stats people actually use operate the same way as WAR. Like, I'd call "home runs above average (min. 500 PA)" a counting stat too, but that's not a thing.

[nwcodad.bsky.social @nwcodad]

@HillaryIsComing @KyleClark Nah. I'm not a fan but every vote should be counted in every election (especially close ones) no matter which side is ahead. No issues with a politician holding out when trailing by fewer votes than ballots outstanding, no matter how I feel about their politics.

[nwcodad.bsky.social @nwcodad]

@idiots_league @rossjensen @CBSScottWhite I'd call WAR a normalized counting stat. The core inputs rely on accumulating value over time, which is the same thing counting stats do, but then they're adjusted (league adjustment and dividing by runs per win) to compare everyone to the same baseline.

[nwcodad.bsky.social @nwcodad]

@idiots_league @rossjensen @CBSScottWhite If we're talking a binary where everything's either a counting stat or rate stat, WAR's definitely a counting stat. But what's "counted" isn't the raw data (singles, Ks, BBs, etc.) but their run value, which is then adjusted for league.

@bauer51003 @KunalTandon It’s a good but but KC’s in MO.

@HankDesmondPhD Ford sells as many F-Series trucks in 6 weeks as the total number of cybertrucks Tesla sold in 3 years.

@hightestknits @joshtpm @TrackAIPAC Truly recruiting a two-term senator who lost two years earlier was a masterstroke in leaving no stone unturned.
