    This season’s baseball rule changes (banning the shift and adding a pitch clock) will benefit the game, but not as much as if umpires called the strike zone that is in the rule book.

    Anything that makes the game move faster is a good thing. Including full-body tackles.

    Country music started going downhill when the likes of George Strait were succeeded by the likes of Luke Bryan.

    What @Catseye3 said.

    Boxing is to MMA as horse racing is to slot machines.

    Nope. MMA isn't random.

    Today’s super-hopped IPAs are close to undrinkable.

    And how.

    Tender Is the Night is Fitzgerald’s best novel, much better than The Great Gatsby.

    Ashamed to admit - never read TITN.

    Today we listen to Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald, not to mention the Beatles, but fifty years from now no one will listen to today’s rap.

    Rap ain't music.

    Air travelers who put their seats back should be exiled to Pago Pago.

    If we all went back to dressing like people did in the 1940s and 50s the world would be a better place.

    Indeed. I wore a tie and jacket throughout high school. If nothing, it taught me discipline and self-respect. If I didn't care how I looked, why should anyone else?

    Notwithstanding a few worthy practitioners like Jackson Pollock, abstract expressionism was basically a mistake.

    Er...the best thing about Pollock was the Ed Harris biopic. I'll submit that "artists" like Klee and Mondrian are more creative.

    I know nuzzing about either of these disciplines, but just from casual observance, I would say boxing requires elegance, subtlety and strategy and MMA is basically a slugfest.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that.

      I think you're right. I was conflating MMA with professional "wrestling," which is more theater than sport.

      NTTAWWT either.

        Pro wrestling is a GSR, and thus underlies much of the nation’s violent crime.

        Education is extremely important.

          Want to start a fight? Walk over to a guy and slap him.

          Hitting a guy will piss him off. Slapping him will send him into orbit.

          Of course, if you're a sho-nuff badass, slap him and keep slapping. Make sure you catch him on the ears.

                          I was only joking
