Because the NHL has played 4 times as many playoff series as the MLB. And there's been 211 times a team has gone down 3-0 in the NHL, but only 42 times in the MLB. A team has come back from 3-0 exactly 2% of the time in both
MLB and NHL have the most variance of all sports

Do you know how hard it is to be the guy with the β1β in 1-hitter but have everyone be mad exclusively at you
The Chicago White Sox have either lost in the first round (8x) or won the World Series (3x) every single time they've made the playoffs.
Either they win the World Series this year or they make franchise history.
The postseason isn't near over, but I can't wait to update this breathtaking list. The White Sox have now won a playoff series in only the *second* baseball season since 1918:
Did the Chicago White Sox win a playoff series?

I don't understand the people complaining about Wild Card games being played in the afternoon.
I've seen what your productivity at the office looks like during March Madness.
Now all of a sudden you're a device-less Amish construction worker on the job site all day?

September 19! THIS IS STILL NOT UNDER CONTROL.
π©π©π© It appears rogue OpenAI agents, without OpenAI's knowledge, tried to break into a crypto exchange.
1) THEY'RE STILL OUT THERE: "This traffic extends as recently as 9/16, suggesting agents may still be exploiting these services."
2) THEY TRIED TO HIDE THEIR ACTIVITY: The agents created their own email inboxes to sign up for outside services, including an account that would let them keep their activity out of public view.
3) The same agents also tried to hack even more targets, including the University of New Mexico
4) Like most of the other rogue swarms, OpenAI has either covered this up, or didn't know.
5) The independent investigators say "we are likely looking at only a partial subset of the activityΒ that the agents engaged in"
6) The researchers call this the first known case of an AI agent choosing on its own to try to break into a government website.
7) While trying to get a single photograph, an AI agent sent a university library a request built to trick its database into handing over user passwords.
TBF, Frank Robinson and Ohtani are the only players to win MVP in both leagues. Changing leagues just hasn't been a common thing for most of baseball history.
The cruel irony. Druw Jones is facing off against my hometown team for the Texas League championship.

Most home runs through age-29 season all time:
Eddie Mathews- 5th
Henry Aaron- 7th
Andruw Jones- 8th
Junior Caminero has a chance to blow past all three of those HOFers

Part of a really good era of third basemen (Graig Nettles, Ron Cey, Sal Bando, Toby Harrah, etc) who get overlooked historically bc Schmidt and Brett overshadowed everyone
