  1. Finished S5 of "The Americans." I've enjoyed the series a lot, but I'm ready for it to be over. I'm looking forward to seeing how it ends in S6. Funny, when "Justified" finished its run, it left me wanting more. With this show, I feel like they've taken the story as far as it can go... and all that's left is to figure out how it all ends.
  2. That makes sense. It's actually kind of overwhelming when you think about all the variables that go into projecting what a player will do. That blend of analytics, eyes on the player, ball park factors, etc. is kind of fascinating. Even though it's interesting, it's not something I'd want to do, myself. In my line of work - we rely on predictive models and AI and Machine Learning is having a huge impact on that (I could talk for hours about that). I wonder if baseball is doing the same? I would imagine so. AI and ML are game changers when it comes to predictive models. Like I said earlier, I used to spend hours watching high school basketball players. I enjoyed seeing players before they made an impact in Div. I basketball or went on to become NBA players - but I was often a horrible judge of talent. I think projecting and evaluating baseball players would be even harder.
  3. I'm genuinely curious... who here goes to minor league games to "scout" players? And by "scout" I don't mean professionally (although that would be interesting if anyone does), but to evaluate talent. Back in the day, I spent a lot of time watching high school basketball players... it was fun for me. Who does that for baseball? Just curious.
  4. Actually, I was being a jerk. Sometimes people post their opinions as if they're facts when they're not. Sometimes, I get tired of it. In this case, I shouldn't have reacted at all. I often post comments or react in a way to make light of things... to lighten the mood if you will and sometimes I end up just being a jerk.
  5. I think many of us had unrealistic expectations for Stassi....
  6. And you're like the goat that jinxed the Cubs.
  7. I think the time travel angle is a better story.
  8. Not everything on this board is an opinion. Your post didn't read as an opinion to me... so, I was clarifying.
  9. What if they start Saturday night or Sunday afternoon?
  10. Cool. Your drone can do time travel! I bet you had to pay extra for that.
