This sounds like a situation where everyone is a jerk and everyone loses, so the only argument is who is the bigger jerk.

Based solely on two incidents I've seen from this thread it sounds like Sale and his team are getting managed by people divorced from the day to day operations of the team, which is a valid reason to be pissed the gently caress off.

I'd go with that. Anyone who's been told to use the wrong equipment/uniform by a manager simply because the manager was thinking of his KPI's or something other than the comfort and performance of his team can relate. It's harder to relate to 'oh, well it slightly fucks my team up but increases profit somehow'. If the management of a baseball team is making decisions divorced from 'what will make our team win' than gently caress em.

The number 1 way to promote your team (however you measure "team promotion," I don't know) is not necessarily the number 1 way to *make a profit*. Especially in a business that operates with profit-sharing. The Cardinals are the most profitable team in baseball this year and are what, 6th in the NL? The Braves are the 4th most-profitable team and they suck harder than the entire LA porn industry. Most profitable team in baseball history was the 2013 Astros, a team for whose W-L record the word "debacle" is a ridiculous understatement. Phanatic has a new favorite as of 03:52 on Jul 25, 2016 |

LivesInGrey posted:Individual athletes who train and get tested outside of Russia can appeal to compete under a neutral flag. Needs less cowbell. That must be deafening in-person. The schadenfreude in that baseball-clothing-knife thing is that everybody involved - the pitcher, the rest of the team, the managers and owners of the team, the fans of either the team or their opponent-of-the-week, the people rushing to defend anybody involved - all look like ridiculous children. It's lovely - a real slam dunk on a baseball team.

Some seriously pro voice acting there. Yelling over each other from two interleaved scripts and holding the timing together is hard.

I think they have a lot of Improv experience from somewhere, at least the Interdimensional TV episodes would lead me to believe so.

If you like Rick and Morty, that video and have the slightest interest in fantasy and pen and paper games, I recommend Harmonquest. The first episode is on youtube. It's basically Dan Harmon (one the creators of R&M) with some friends and a celebrity guest playing dungeons and dragons with everything that happens animated.

chitoryu12 posted:I think a lot of Ricky and Morty is improvised? At least that's what I've heard. IIRC with the way they write, Morty is more scripted and is used to drive a more improv-based Rick. Then of course you have an episode like Rixty Minutes where the shows were obviously very improvised, I especially appreciate that they kept in the end of "Two Brothers" where Roilland just starts cracking up.
