2012 Red Sox Spring Training Game Thread
Emmz replied to yeszir's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
I think that it IS an actual term, but yes I now realize that term is heavily associated with a certain someone. -
Agreed with all of this.

Sounds old-timey, but fun! See, that's the kind of enjoyable multi-tasking you like to see. -
2012 Red Sox Spring Training Game Thread
Emmz replied to yeszir's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
Even my grandpa used to listen to the radio with the TV while watching baseball, but I don't think you can say baseball is better than whatever sport through any medium. I think all sports generally sound better through radio just because its more descriptive. -
Everyone wants to move on except for Dojji.

Yes, and thats my point, it's not that far-off where subjectivity says close enough. This isn't really about the word fact, its about whats implied. The Earth revolves around the sun, and this is fact, truth, absolute reality. 1+1 is 2, and that is the absolute truth. Thats the point, whether fact is the accurate term or not is just Dojji's way of saying he can't find anything to bring to this argument, so this is what I got. The definition of fact is actually pretty irrelevant, but its close enough that you shouldnt really split hairs over it.

Watch that ad hominem bud.
-
Save the patronizing for when, you know, you're not just blathering s***. I'm not going to spend a bunch of pages discussing the meaning of the english word "factual", but the very fact that you're trying to tell me my definition of the word is incorrect means that you think I'm right, that absolutes are very much real. That's not even the biggest hypocrisy, when you consider all the ad hominem your post is filled with. Thats one thing you seem to look too closely at. You think any personal attacks invalidate an opinion, and you have a tendency to obsess over whatever stupid detail you don't like about someone, and criticize them at every opportunity. Oh, and btw, fact is a synonym of truth/reality in every dictionary I've been looking at since I began typing this. So, you ready for your crow too Dojji boy?

That was not a fact, it was a highly-believed opinion held by unadvanced people. It was never backed up by anything other than an unadvanced form of logic similar to what you're pushing. The earth revolves around the sun, fact and absolute.
-
And it's incorrect. A single value plus the same single value is equal to two of the same value.
-
LOL you're desperate now after I said I would drop it. That's a spin on a fact, it does not revolve around the earth.
-
2+2=4. Dispute or cast doubt on that. I rest my case.
-
Facts don't change, though.
-
Lol the actual discussion is in the other spring training thread. Kinda messed up it had to get to that point, so I'm going to just say I'm done discussing this. Really kind of pointless anyways.

Death is death. Life after death or reincarnation is AFTER death, this is another fact. Your previous identity in both cases are still effectively deceased, even if there is a life after death. This is factual, and this has never changed since the firat organism in the universe kicked the bucket. Changed definitions and calling it something else don't change the fact of what's there/what's happening. The funniest thing about all of this is that without absolutes, any rule would be a complete crock. That's how your argument defeated itself pages ago. What else do I have to debunk for you? Might just have to call you a troll and move on.
-
Also, I think the most amusing thing about this is that you think your judgment is superior to a scientists.
-
Yes, before they had modern tools and knowledge to completely blow past facts off the map, most of which were made up by philosophers with no knowledge of how s*** works. Death is absolute. When you're dead you're dead, it can't be any more simplistic than that. The earth factually revolves around the sun, this will never be disproven, because it is a fact. There was no science involved when everyone thought the sun revolved around the earth. It was a guess, so once again, you're incorrect. The composition of Jupiter and Co. was tested, their surface is gas, again, fact. Keep it going, the longer yoh hold out, the more s*** you'll have to eat.
-
So, ready to eat your crow yet?
-
Example of a true absolute. The ideal that there is no absolute defeats itself, I could've rested my case a long time ago. Science absolutely does not in any way disprove absolutes. Example or it didn't happen. Science has dedicated its entirety on discovering facts about what can only can be described as "how s*** operates". Facts are absolutes, end of discussion. Earth is not flat, Earth orbits the sun, Jupiter is a gas giant. Fact, fact, fact. Absolutes, all three.

Ain't you forgetting that his first couple of months were pretty crappy as well, and that number from Open to September is mostly due to 3 months of hitting for around .900 OPS? I don't think it was conditioning that hurt him, he just couldn't keep hitting like that. It would be one thing if he was largely consistent with one outlier month in there and then he just tailed off in September.
