I could sit for 40 hours, the problem comes in when I stand up to go to the bathroom. Lol

I’m at the game today. I’ll let everyone know if she gets in the game what I see from her. So far I’ve just seen her warm up with the team.

While I agree a polar bear encounter is more deadly than a grizzly encounter, how often do people encounter polar bears? I'd say there's a solid chance I'll never be in polar bear country in my lifetime, but the range of the brown/grizzly overlaps with human civilization much more. This is from a North American perspective btw. I'd bet brown bear is at the top of the list of animal deaths in NA.

This kid will go far. That compassion and drive deserves to be recognized.

The term you're looking for is 'cis' fyi.

These guys amaze me. I wouldn’t even be able to sit at a desk for 40 hours.

That’s why I always do my best to stick my head right into the polar bears mouth.

The fact that she even put bat to ball against a D-1 pitcher is something, though. I'm not sure I could do that.
I'm hoping she gets at least a few more at-bats. It'll be interesting to see what she can do in the future.

How do they manage to walk from the sheer size of their balls?

Ah, yes I see what you’re saying with regards to his comment.
And I don’t think anyone’s worrying about men’s leagues anyway, it’s more the women’s leagues that concern people.

I'm not too worried about who's competing in "men's" leagues. If you're good enough, I don't care about your private parts. It's cool to see the skill gap narrowing, and I'm excited to see more of it.
The point of my reply was that "Im uncomfortable commenting" is not only a comment (making the entire statement laughably untrue), but still some half assed attempt to make a point. It's just overall a stupid thing to type.

? A guy risked his life and literally wrestled a bear to save his friend, and both are expected to make a full recovery. How is this not uplifting?
I’m struggling to imagine how you read this one sentence headline and think it isn’t. What could be a more stereotypically uplifting story?
