Hitting a baseball is the hardest single thing to do in all of sports

Hitting a round ball going a hundred miles an hour feels like it's harder than hitting a tennis ball with the racket. You always hear... the hardest thing to do in sports is to hit a baseball. I've heard it enough that I believe it.

Incorrect. Schwarber struggled in the 60-game season, hitting only .188, and was non-tendered by the Cubs that winter.

Tom Brady is on the hot seat for leading workouts during the COVID-19 spike.

Tom Brady is on the hot seat... despite the NFLPA advising that players should not work out together, Tom Brady led another Bucs workout this morning...

Opinion Football Medium

Incorrect. Brady was not actually on a 'hot seat' with his team or the league, and the workouts helped him win a Super Bowl that season.

Ben Roethlisberger's porn addiction admission is a genius move to distract from his real past

This was genius by him. Of course everything that he does is genius, right? Be like, I'm not talking about my real past. I'm talking about my porn. And yes, this is the androstenedione in the locker for Mark McGwire that Roethlisberger's bringing.
