      Why don't you summarize this instead of asking us to spend nearly 2 hours on it.   Which I had no interest in doing.

        It's simply a 2 hour video of the greatest sports storyteller of the moment talking about athletes named Bob, through statistics and sharing some stories. 

        There's no point in summarizing, as there is no point in complaining. Once you have watched a Jon Bois video you become a fan. How to do that? Simply clicking on it.

        I've watched videos about sports I don't care about simply because I love the way he tells stories.

          never heard of this Jon Bois...but after the first minute or so watching the saga of the woeful Bob Hamelin baseball cards I knew I had to shut it down before I got sucked into this. You can feel it coming.

                  Maybe, when I have some time.  Things have been a little out of sorts here in SW Ohio the last couple of days. We had an EF3 tornado come though town Monday night. I'm fine, outside of having low water pressure the last couple of days.  Some other folks on the north side of town weren't so lucky- hundreds of houses got leveled.

                              Then ask us if we care should your house gets leveled by a tornado. Sounds like the chicks who were calling in bitching they were missing the Bachelorette because there was continuous weather coverage of the tornado that was tearing up north Dayton. Not trying to have a pity party- no big deal- until you're the one who's house is reduced to match sticks. Amazing with the amount of damage only one guy got killed- when a car flew into his house. FWIW, I missed out on 90% of game one of the Stanley Cup Finals.  Um, some things are more important.

                              It was strange Nero, almost no rain or wind at my house. Tornadoes are like that. Watching the weather with the guy giving a projected track. Hmmm.... if it shows about another two miles farther south, it's time to head to the basement...  IIRC think you mentioned you do architecture- riding the bike up north to do a perusal of the damage- besides the downed trees, there was insulation all over the place- miles away from the actual storm.  I've always been fascinated by what can happen to trees when they're in the direct path of major tornado. With the sudden gust of wind, they don't get uprooted- instead, snapped in half like a tooth pick. We're talking big trees that are two feet or more in diameter.

                                Never been to a natural disaster scenario. Here we only have very calm earthquakes every 5 years or so. 

                                Insulation has very low density, so it makes sense that once unprotected, it can fly miles on a tornado. 

                                About trees, IIRC their root volume is similar to the volume of tree you can see above the surface, so it makes sense that they are snapped, as both earth and the tornado interact as a torque, and the taller the tree the bigger the torque.

                                  How about that star who played well before they had a franchise? You know, Buffalo Bob.?

                                      Then ask us if we care should your house gets leveled by a tornado. Sounds like the chicks who were calling in bitching they were missing the Bachelorette because there was continuous weather coverage of the tornado that was tearing up north Dayton. Not trying to have a pity party- no big deal- until you're the one who's house is reduced to match sticks. Amazing with the amount of damage only one guy got killed- when a car flew into his house. FWIW, I missed out on 90% of game one of the Stanley Cup Finals.  Um, some things are more important.

Hmmm.... if it shows about another two miles farther south, it's time to head to the basement...  IIRC think you mentioned you do architecture- riding the bike up north to do a perusal of the damage- besides the downed trees, there was insulation all over the place- miles away from the actual storm.  I've always been fascinated by what can happen to trees when they're in the direct path of major tornado. With the sudden gust of wind, they don't get uprooted- instead, snapped in half like a tooth pick. We're talking big trees that are two feet or more in diameter.

                                      I have had a tornado rip through my yard when I was 8 years old.. It took apart a tree like a toothpick... I'm not trying to be insensitive.. I don't know what the video is about,, Like Gipper.. Im not investing 2 hours of time.. but whatevers.. Hope you're safe all the same

                                        Never been to a natural disaster scenario. Here we only have very calm earthquakes every 5 years or so. 

                                        Insulation has very low density, so it makes sense that once unprotected, it can fly miles on a tornado. 

                                        About trees, IIRC their root volume is similar to the volume of tree you can see above the surface, so it makes sense that they are snapped, as both earth and the tornado interact as a torque, and the taller the tree the bigger the torque.

                                        I'll stray off topic one last time Nero. Here in SW Ohio anyone who's old enough remembers the 1974 Xenia tornado. I was in college (University of Dayton) around 15 miles away at the time. I've never seen the sky look like that since- it was looking up and seeing what looked like hundreds of ping pong balls, (probably incipient tornadoes).   The storm that ripped through Xenia was an EF5, highest category, with at least 200+ MPH winds. They wouldn't let anyone into town for a couple weeks afterward, but when I drove through there, it was a sight I'll never forget.  There was a track through town around a half mile wide, and miles long that looked like a team of bulldozers had been hard at work on. Everything was flattened down to the ground. It's amazing more people didn't get killed.

                                          I remember the Xenia tornado in 1974....but I was nowhere near it, being here in Akron area.
