No player boasting Betts’s combination of excellence and youth has ever been traded before -- (link) - Beaker Feb 5, 06:51 8

  - not according to WAR -- nm - Beaker Feb 5, 06:55 6
    - Which is not the best thing as we see in this example. Ruth was unlike anyone else playing at the time. -- nm - Krusty Feb 5, 07:20
    - Yes because Ruth was 2 years younger and recently converted from pitcher. - spamlet Feb 5, 06:58 4
      - *shrug* the article uses stats going back to 1898, just because he turned out great doesn't mean he showed it leading up to the sale -- nm - Beaker Feb 5, 06:59 3

        He was the best player in the game before the trade -- nm - Krusty Feb 5, 07:28

Spiral: From the Book of Saw - teaser trailer -- (link) - Shaun Feb 5, 06:39 [youtube] 10
- Looked good till they gave away waaaaay too much -- nm - Beaker Feb 5, 06:50 9
  - I disagree. I hate this series and thought it was pretty much a perfect reintroduction. Also aiming it squarely at black/latino audiences is smart. - Qale Feb 5, 07:00 3
    - oh, I thought it was real interesting till they gave away the ending. The last 10 seconds or so should not of been included -- nm - Beaker Feb 5, 07:00 2
      - Is that the ending? -- nm - Qale Feb 5, 07:03 1

Huh. Yesterday before SOTU, Trump predicted that AOC is going to primary Schumer and "kick his ass". -- nm - Strongbad Feb 5, 04:27 3
- There is no "huh" about it. I told you Strongbad, were ya not listening? Conservatives love AOC. Conservatives are obsessed with and fetishize AOC. - con_carne Feb 5, 07:22
