Conspiracy theory time: Is there any doubt that Manfred has ordered Lupe, Isabella, et al to wind up the tension on the baseball winders in Costa Rica? As a casual observation, there's already been like 15-20 450+ foot blasts this year and we're only a week into April. I'm thinking Robbie is trying to increase interest in baseball again after 2020's COVID-laced season.

Here's Trout's latest bomb.

Lunatic Greinke told Trout he was gonna hang a slider. And he did.

So baseballs are not vegan, you're saying. That's 8,333 cows killed every year for their sweet, sweet hides. #Cancelled

Although that means 8,333 fewer cow fart factories roaming around, so maybe it makes baseball carbon-neutral.

Which made me think about what some random kids in my hood allegedly did on occasion with the inner workings of golf balls. Apparently, under the cover of the witching hour darkness...these nameless kids broke open some old golf balls, tied the rubber bands together and then allegedly strung the long rubber band strand between two of the stop signs at a 4-way stop.

It appears that it may be rather humorous when a car’s antenna hits that band causing it to snap at the ends and wrap rather loudly around said antenna. Or so I’m told.

Of course the official baseball of MLB is made in Costa Rica.

Only thing this country makes well is naughty teachers. Now, I ain’t entirely mad about that, but damnit, can we not find the motivation to make naughty teachers and official baseball of MLB?

If my dogs ring a bell to go outside, did

A) I train them to use the bell?
B) They train me to respond to the bell?
C) I train them to train me to respond to the bell?
D) Pavlov make both you and your dogs his *****?

Fun Fact #374: Pavlov never used a bell in his “conditioned response” experiments. He initially used a metronome...then later used a harmonium, a buzzer, and electric shock. Never a bell.
