There is no turning back. Athletes are tweeting and live streaming more and more each day. As a public service to the readers of this blog, Pacman will be taking time out of his busy schedule a couple times a month to translate and/or explain certain words or phrases. Today’s lesson comes from Pacman’s own recent live stream:
“Me and my boys, Zach and Eddy, gonna bowl stroll down to da club with a shitload of skrilla, spit some game and then be bumping ugly at the end of the night.”

I’m going to break from the regular format this afternoon and briefly wade into the shark-infested waters of statistical analysis. Yes, I know that only fervent members of PETA are more rabid than stat geeks but it’s a risk I’m willing to take.
First of all, let me unequivocally state that I don’t share the same views as Joe Morgan & Harold Reynolds. I fully comprehend the value of statistics like OPS and VORP. Reynolds caused quite a stir with a semi-recent MLB.com blog post about the value of statistics. Here is Harold waxing incoherently about power hitters:
“…Big power hitters swing and miss and strikeout. Or they hit home runs and [...]
