People to Punch, Pet Peeves, and General Vexations (mega-merge)

I'm seeing more and more people parking in handicap spots, employees of the month spots and over spaces that are reserved for specific people with zero fucks given. When a society stops respecting these basic courtesies we have fallen.
Never understood this practice by healthy people since those spaces are usually closest to the entrance. I am a fat old man with a desk/computer job and always look for a spot far away from the entrance so that I get at least a bit of exercise when I go places since I sit on my ass most of the time.

Game Thread Ball State at tOSU, Sat. Sept. 5th, 12:30 ET BTN

I'd be very tempted at taking the under and taking the 50.5....with it being senior day and all that, once the game is well in hand Day will empty the bench....
The tricky part is the guys Day will empty from the bench are light years beyond the guys Ball State has for backups, and Ball State doesn’t want starters hurt so they will rotate too.

I hate betting these kinds of games, they are unique to college football. The true talent monsters like OSU can cover those kind of spreads more often than you’d think. I know nothing about Ball State other than the talent difference is significant

MLB General Discussion (Official Thread)

I was reading about Skenes. The feeling of some experts was that the velocity decrease pattern looks more like a labrum injury than an elbow injury. Labrum may also be harder to recover from.
This is very understated.

Shoulders are still considered possible career Enders. Pitchers are almost relieved when it’s elbow vs shoulder.

If it’s a labrum he has a real problem. You can make it back but most likely you will never be the same pitcher again.

Analyzing the pros and cons of a potential Ohio State - Christoph Tilly reunion​

How likely is a Tilly-Ohio State reunion?

Just one week from fall classes starting, the Ohio State men’s basketball team has one spot remaining on the 2026-27 roster. It is one of the worst-kept secrets in town that former Buckeye center Christoph Tilly is rumored to be someone that Ohio State is considering “adding” to the team ahead of the 2026-27 season.

Tilly, a German-born 7-footer who played three seasons at Santa Clara before finishing up his college career at Ohio State last season, recently gained one additional year of college eligibility thanks to a July 31 injunction by U.S. District Judge Charlotte Sweeney in Denver, Colorado. For now, this will allow players from the class of 2022 (last year’s seniors) to play one final season. This ruling comes in the wake of the NCAA’s new “5 for 5” rule, where college athletes will have five years to play five seasons. Last year’s seniors were not eligible for this benefit — until this ruling.

That means formerly ineligible players like Tilly — who put his name into the transfer portal in April just in case something like this happened — are now eligible to play one final season.

A source close to the Ohio State program confirmed to Land-Grant Holy Land that Tilly is someone Ohio State is “considering” using the final roster spot on, but that’s all. There is no agreement in place to bring Tilly back at this time, although it is a possibility as we inch closer to the fall semester beginning.

Which baseball record will never be broken?

Login to view embedded media
Born Denton True Young. He went by the name Dent Young in his early years. Young was also known as "Farmer Young" and "Farmboy Young". During his tryout, Young impressed the scouts, recalling years later, "I almost tore the boards off the grandstand with my fast ball."Cy Young's nickname came from the fences that he had destroyed using his fastball. The fences looked like a cyclone had hit them. Reporters later shortened the name to "Cy", which became the nickname Young used for the rest of his life.
