Because you could write, "water is wet" and there would be contrarian knuckleheads debating you.

Although not unique to Net54, there seems to be an uptick in the frequency of such behavior on this site lately. (I can hear a few keyboard warriors typing their responses to my post already)

Actually, I started this thread trying to make sense of the extended slump Trout was in...not his greatness, though I did comment on that later on.

There are several good-to-great hitters who are just starting to hit (Soto for example) or are still having down seasons and I believe at least some of that can be blamed on the lockout and abbreviated spring training. Plus the fact that teams had 15 and 16 man pitching staffs to start the season...good grief!

I put a 2 inch cube of water in my bourbon last night. It disappeared along with the bourbon. Does this prove unequivocally that water is wet? I think not.
