OT: Pirates Talk: That Skenes guy is okay at teh baseball

Maybe. But there is a much bigger world (with bigger problems) outside of a shitty bottom tier MLB franchise.

If you look at human happiness, sports impact is disproportionate vs the socioeconomic impact which is a net zero. But people deeply care about sports as a past time. They are a civic institution but under private ownership of a miser.

Nutting has contributed more net unhappiness and lower quality of life to Pittsburgh than virtually any other person alive today.

I can see that possibly being the case in some scenarios during "normal" times. But we're not exactly in normal times anymore. Getting too close to politics though ...

This is going to go so poorly.
