Seems a similar sort of joke as https://xkcd.com/132/ - [[User:Carmageddonstein|Carmageddonstein]] ([[User talk:Carmageddonstein|talk]]) 22:04, 5 July 2017 (UTC) | Seems a similar sort of joke as https://xkcd.com/132/ - [[User:Carmageddonstein|Carmageddonstein]] ([[User talk:Carmageddonstein|talk]]) 22:04, 5 July 2017 (UTC) | ||

Could use a deeper explanation of "With the baseball season being halfway over and both football and basketball being in the offseason, Cueball further shows his lack of sports knowledge in asking whether it is next week, and assuming that he could spontaneously decide, at game time, to just go." - how long are seasons / how much longer until the game? (Also, I'm not sure what relevance the mention of non-baseball sports has here - just extra info for comparison?) Why couldn't he spontaneously decide to go? Is it that it sells out X amount of time in advance? (Turns out I have less sports knowledge than Cueball =)) [[Special:Contributions/172.68.141.10|172.68.141.10]] 03:26, 6 July 2017 (UTC) | Could use a deeper explanation of "With the baseball season being halfway over and both football and basketball being in the offseason, Cueball further shows his lack of sports knowledge in asking whether it is next week, and assuming that he could spontaneously decide, at game time, to just go." - how long are seasons / how much longer until the game?

Well Randall knows more than I do, LOL! Glad I'm not the only one. :) Never heard of Mike Trout, and "on-base plus slugging" was completely unknown to me until I read it here. I've always felt like I knew the basics of the major sports, like terms, but that one is new to me. I feel like I've got a better handle on which team belongs to which sport than Randall does, though. LOL!
