Fox Sports reported that the 729 dropoff in home runs between 2021 and 2022 was the biggest plunge in MLB history.

Go team!

Be careful! If MLB teams decide to invade Guam, the entire island just might tip over, capsize!

Heh, so-called university “researchers” present clinate research that is laughable on its face. Now, we are expected to believe climate “research” done by sportscasters and writers. The next thing they’ll be telling me is that Al Gore and that awful little squeaky teen whose only phrase is “How dare you” can do other than first grade math.

Dartmouth College is right! Global warming is the cause of everything unusual. And in particular it is the cause of everything bad.

For those who might doubt that, let me give you an example. I was in a poker game at a local casino last week. In the first hand I was dealt a 2 and a 6, off-suit. I bet it all and lost my entire stake.

Was my loss due to terrible poker play? No. It was due to global warming. Yes, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

That was my second guess.
Racism was my first guess.

Once the Ivy League school helped us win WW ll now they just embarrass themselves with garbage that frat boys produce during beer pong tournaments.

One major reason for the increased home runs is money. Players now get more money for power and run production than for batting average. OPA seems to be replacing batting average as a measure of players’ value. Knowing this, the players will swing for the fences more, even if it results in a .220 batting average. Global warming has nothing to do with it.

Global warming increases crime and homelessness. Homeless people need to wear aluminum hats because global warming increase the absorption of radiation into their heads.

“The conclusion: “Myriad factors likely account for these trends, with some speculating that global warming has contributed via a reduction in ballpark air density.”

Air density?

Well, that seems to make sense.

One thing I know for sure is the lower air density absolutely makes my Taco Bell crispy beef tacos taste much better.

Or maybe I am just dizzy.

When I was in college, frat boys were more conservative than the rest of the students, but maybe the Ivy League is different.
