I say this with sadness.
How can anyone claim this isn't literally a form of manslaughter?

Please Listen to YOUR Doctors and YOUR Hatzolah Leadership!!

I keep hearing from frustrated-to-tears medical professionals and first responders, how some people in our community who are dismissing face-mask wearing and social distancing are caught up in the politicized nature...

"You know, most of it’s sad, actually, if you look at it. There are funny things that happen, but if it doesn’t have that other part of it, it doesn’t really hold much." So true, that's the poignancy that underlies the comedy. @BaseballPesach

Listen to this bonus episode, where former All Star pitcher @LarySorensen talks about rifle spin, spin rate vs. spin efficiency, and the insanely cool @PitchlogicS ball. Plus he talks about teammates like Rickey, Blyleven, Yount, Molitor, and others!
