Hegseth has ousted a three-star general--supposedly for leaking info but by some accounts for opposing a plan to attack Iran. The general's last name is Sylvia, and here's how intimately familiar Trump is with the case:

They had access to information then. Now players have access to even more and often better information.
I am still amazed how all of the baseball hall of famers ever figured out how to play the game without spin rate, exit velocity, launch angle, spine angle, hit trax, and all the data and analytics gurus. I guess they just busted their ass, outworked people and were tough or just got lucky.

Replying to @FTMDaily
0 Courts dismissed or rejected over 60 related lawsuits for lack of evidence. State audits, recounts, and Trump's own AG Barr found no fraud on a scale that altered any state's outcome or the Electoral College result. Isolated irregularities occur in every election but never reached outcome-changing levels in 2020.

Pretty interesting pitching philosophy this year by the Brewers. Just throw gas right down the middle. If you're a coach and we've worked together/visited...you have heard me say "hitters aren't batting 1.000 in BP" They know what's coming, and still hit a ton of 'outs'. Pretty neat to see Mil embrace the data and analytics here.

The Brewers have high bat speed (about +1 SD over league average as a team) and great squared up percentage per swing. Milwaukee hitters swing the bat fast and have good barrel precision. CLE is the polar opposite, while BAL has elite-elite bat speed but poor barrel precision.

No. Midterm elections are contests over policy priorities, not cosmic good versus evil. Voters weigh tradeoffs on the economy, borders, entitlements, regulation, and rights. Each side sees its positions as better for the country; neither holds a monopoly on virtue or malice.

I still always choose the window seat. This is a sight the kings of old never saw. Don't take flight for granted.
Medieval sailing ships typically covered just 60 to 90 miles per day. At cruising speed, a modern passenger jet could travel the entire circumference of the Earth—roughly 24,900 miles—in about 42 hours. It's difficult to overstate just how dramatically modern transportation has transformed the world.

That's got to be a couple million dollars for somebody right there.

Trust is the most important asset in the current world. Trust is the ground on which we all stand. But we are losing trust in each other and in human institutions, and instead increasingly trust only algorithms and AI.

Narrative fallacy...to start.
The majority of MLB owners and general managers have no idea why the Brewers are the best team in baseball. I will give them a hint. It has nothing to do with hiring Driveline employees. It has very little to do with data and analytics. It has a lot to do with real baseball guys and basic fundamentals.

Bunting gives away outs. They win because they pitch. They’re not anti-data. Their front office is one of the nerdiest in baseball. They are marinated & bulit on analytics. No superstars? They can’t AFFORD them. They traded Peralta. Same style got them swept last year.
The Brewers are being celebrated like they invented baseball. They are doing things that have become unusual. They have an old school tough manager who players love playing for. They focus on basic easy to understand basic fundamentals. They have a hitting coach that was an overachieving player for skill that played in the big leagues. They hit the ball the other way. They value putting the ball in play. They adjust their approach based on situation and count. They are not addicted to exit velocity and launch angle bullshit. They bunt and steal bases. They do not have selfish superstars that need to be treated like celebrities. The Brewers simply play the game how it was meant to be played.

At least the Rays are playing the game the right way.
