The Most Inefficient Plane Boarding System Ever
Переглядів 2055 років тому
This took place at the airport in Santorini (Greece). There was no reason we couldn't walk 20 seconds to get to the plane, and instead had to go through a 2.5 minute bus ride to cross the 20 meters it took to get to the plane. That part of the runway was not being used, and I'm used to crossing runways to get to the plane in other small airports in different countries, so it still boggles my mi...

    About 4:20 . Hang on a minute. There were black players before 1901. Cap Anson, among other stars, were bigoted. They said they would not play with the Black players, so the owners excluded them. I hate revisionist history b@$t@rds. I guess never let the truth get in the way of a good story, like there were records of baseball going back to 1795. Doubleday my @$$.

    Thanks for making this video! I'm moving to ATL in a couple of years and I thought this was awesome because my passion is theatre. I wonder if you could make a follow video where you showcase some of the theatres that produce new works. The reason I ask is because I am a budding playwright and actor myself. Also, in case you're curious, here's a scene from a full play that I had performed a few years ago.

    Stick baseball has been around since the early 1800's. This game was first reconized or realized when kids used bats to hit rocks or balls in the streets. I'm tired of people saying that in 1839 that the first game was played or establised with bases. Are you kidding me? Some kids used posts to play stick ball as early as 1814 hitting rocks or a ball up in the air or playing a base game they called it instead of the name baseball being established later.

At some point in the 2000’s, a researcher from the USA, who was researching at the British Library in London, found a newspaper article from 1749. That article was about a game that was played in Walton-on-Thames, that was called baseball. It’s possible that there might have been previous occasions,but as far as I know, that newspaper article is, at present, the earliest known mention of a game called baseball. It’s possible that it was just a bunch of people who were fed up with rounders, tweaked it a bit, named it baseball,and here we are today.

    Abner Doubleday had zilch to do with the creation of baseball. That is a myth. BTW, the Cincinnati Red Stockings' 69 game winning streak was ended by the Brooklyn Atlantics, who toured parts of the South prior to the Civil War, introducing the game below the Mason-Dixon line. Alexander Cartwright invented the scorecard and established the rules of the game we know today. He is buried in Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn. The first stolen base was by a Brooklyn Atlantics player.

However, the commission excepted the account of an Agnes graves, a minor in Colorado, who claims to have lived near shuffle day when he invented the game. However, further investigation into this matter has revealed that the time in which Graves reported double day, as inventing the game, he would have been studying at West Point, in preparation for his military career, not living at his home in Cooperstown.

      The fact that many of the best pro golfers have never had a hole in one tells you a great deal of luck is involved Any amature golfer can get lucky and nail a hole in one. There are not many human beings on the planet that are capable of hittin a home run against MLB pitching. There is no way average golfer getting a hole in one is more impressive that hitting a 98 mph fastball 400 ft. Your comment is silly.

    Thompson's homer, for the lover of the game, is important for so many reasons. 1. It was the original "walk-off" before it became popularized in the late 80's. 2. It cemented the importance of winning the Pennant with the call as the Giants would lose the Fall Classic in 51. 3. It gives huge evidence to those who feel the greatest historical rivalry in the sport is Dodgers/Giants as this homerun and call is the most famous home run and home run call in the sport.
