I agree with all this. The missteps are almost all of a kind; they feel tacked on, and they feel as if they were done out of fear that the audience wouldn't follow something, which is a shame. I...

Re: The Official MLB Thread

I don't have much animus towards the Guardians or the Yankees but neither are particularly exciting or fun, either. Bummer that my two favorite remaining teams are both in the NLCS. Wouldn't mind the...

If so, I'll second that. Very good book, with some really interesting social concepts that have applications well beyond the titular. The most interesting, for me, was...
