It’s just projectile motion Lu’s the magnus force, right? 😀
I want physics twitter to know that am sure that @gregcjacobs could do this, easily.

Second problem set for AP physics 1. Knowing it was gonna be rough, here's the email I sent after it was turned in (and before it was turned back): jacobsphysics.blogspot.com/2…

I think next year’s games open with, “it’s Time for Tiger Baseball.” In His honor.

Aaaaaarrgh! No one told me about Vin Scully. 😥😥😥 We will miss you. Five generations of my family listened to him call Dodger games. Not *may* his memory be a blessing… his memory flippin’ well *is* a blessing.

Made this hidden role assigner to allow people to play hidden role board games and the like over the internet. It's customizable to pretty much any game, and the host can play too! hidden-role-assigner.azurewe…
Now, 3.1 hours in, the wave has gone around the stadium 1.5 times between Joe Kelly pitches. Why did I used to like this game, again? Oy. 🙄

So, @mlb, why bother with the 20 second clock if no one pays attention? Just now the White Sox took 45 seconds to deliver a pitch after a fly out. No wonder we’re on pace for a four hour game. Stop worrying about The Shift and start ejecting slow pitchers.

My gawd, @espn… I managed *this* time to avoid spoilers on your app when I tuned into the soccer game 30 minutes after kickoff. But then my iPad twisted, and the (live) score appeared big under the video window. Grrrr!

When @disneyplus shows Empire Strikes Back, do you include a ticker updating Darth Vader’s current whereabouts? “Breaking news - Vader is Luke’s father?’ Just as bad as what your app does, @espn.

I mean, ffs, I’m watching the game. Since 1994 the score has been shown on screen during every reputable sports telecast. Why do I need to see the score in an app whose sole use is to watch video?!? @espn @ESPNPlus
