MLB is making the stitches on baseballs bigger to create better GIFs

This year they're just making the stitches a little bigger, make more movement, better gifs, more social traction... When the pitches are going like four feet across the plate straight up, it's a little suspicious.

The 'juiced ball' theory was usually about the core, not the stitches, and there is no evidence MLB altered stitch height specifically for GIF aesthetics.

2-0 is the most dangerous lead in hockey

2-0 is the most dangerous lead in hockey, and the Blue Jackets have a 2-0 lead. They stink. I'm okay with that.

The Capitals actually came back to win this series 4-2, making the 2-0 lead truly 'dangerous' for Columbus in this specific instance.

The Cavaliers are absolutely done after their Game 1 loss

The Cavaliers are done. Done. Absolutely done. They looked like shit today. LeBron James, I think he's over the hill.

The Cavs won the series in 7 games and made the NBA Finals, so LeBron was far from done.

LeBron James lost Game 1 on purpose to pad his all-time stats

LeBron actually lost this game on purpose so he can pad his all-time playoff stats.

This is a satirical theory about intent that cannot be proven, but the Cavs did win the series, meaning they played more games (padding stats).

The Jets in Week 16 are a layup win for the Patriots

We get the, the Jets, which is a nice, like layup week 16 leading into the Broncos and the Dolphins. So we got like kinda two easy wins and then a tough challenge week 17.

Outcome depends on the 2026 NFL season results.

I would love to give a detailed presentation on the pros and cons of every international NFL city

I would love to give a detailed presentation on pros and cons of each city. Something to think about. 11. I'm willing to show how much I care about these international games. And I feel like the only way to do real journalism is to go and feel it and take it in yourselves.

This is a statement of intent/desire regarding show content.
