abenjami Posted March 27, 2025 Report Share Posted March 27, 2025 I thought it would be fun to have a thread where we can post crazy stats that we hear about. Here are 2 that I saw today. Lebron James is the youngest player in NBA history to score 40 points. He's also the oldest player in NBA history to score 40 points. Ashton Jeanty led the NCAA in rushing yards this season. The second most rushing yards was Ashton Jeanty after contact. chef, and SleepingTitan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing about his running style seems special. Maybe he's sneaky fast or more elusive than he looks. Leveon Bell looked so unimpressive as a Steeler too but he was a stud for a couple years.

BudsOilers Posted March 27, 2025 Report Share Posted March 27, 2025 https://www.therams.com/news/seahawks-record-performance-by-rams-defense-stands-40-years-later Minus-seven yards. It's almost unthinkable in today's NFL, given the rapid pace at which offenses are setting new records. Yet 40 years ago, the Los Angeles Rams defense held the Seattle Seahawks offense to precisely that in a 24-0 victory on November 4, 1979 – a league record that remains unbroken to this day. This was in the Kingdome so no weather playing a factor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OILERMAN Posted March 28, 2025 Report Share Posted March 28, 2025 Tony Gwynn faced Maddux, Smoltz, Glavine, and Pedro Martinez 330 times. Those four guys struck out over 12,000 batters combined. They struck out Gwynn 3 times total. IsntLifeFunny, abenjami, and titanruss 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can identify pitches if there are different release points or if a curveball starts with an upward hump as it leaves the pitcher’s hand. But if a pitcher can change speeds, every hitter is helpless, limited by human vision. Except for that fucker Tony Gwynn." - Greg Maddux MadMax, titanruss, OILERMAN, and 3 others 1 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliTitan3518 Posted March 29, 2025 Report Share Posted March 29, 2025 Pick any two players in the baseball hall of fame. Barry Bonds has more mvp awards than both of them combined. From 2001-2004 39.5% of all Barry Bonds at bats ended in a walk or a home run. He also reached base in 94% of his games played. If you turned every home run Bonds hit into an out his career on base % would be .384. the same as Alex Rodriguez's. In 2004 Bonds reached base safely 376 times in 373 at bats. If you stripped Bonds of all of his stats from his 7 MVP seasons, he woud still have 440 homers, 359 stolen bases which no other player has. abenjami, OILERMAN, IsntLifeFunny, and 1 other 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankees did it today vs MIL In 1987 the Padres went back-to-back-to-back to start a game in the first inning. It took more than 3 pitches but that was the first time it ever happened. Tony Gwynn was the second batter too. rns90 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
