The EPA says its fine to bathe in https://www.epa.gov/insect-repellents/deet which means its profitable to some entity with political sway so it further means don't go anywhere near it. The EPA admits permethrin is a carcinogen https://www3.epa.gov/pesticides/chem_search/reg_actions/reregistration/fs_PC-109701_1-Jun-06.pdf which means if they admit its not healthy then you should run away from it.

"Although all pyrethroids interact with sodium
channels, there are multiple types of sodium channels and it is currently unknown whether the
pyrethroids have similar effects on all channels. Nor do we have a clear understanding of effects on
key downstream neuronal function e.g., nerve excitability, nor do we understand how these key
events interact to produce their compound specific patterns of neurotoxicity" - LOL yeah - we dont know if its neurotoxic or not but please continue to slather it on food products.

"Aggregate short-term (1-30 days) non-cancer risk estimates, which include the contribution of
risk from chronic dietary sources (food + drinking water) and short-term residential sources,
exceeded the Agency's LOC for toddlers exposed to permethrin through food and drinking
water, and through post-application exposure during high contact activities on lawns and
indoor surfaces" - This is gold.

Dang, hope he's able to get back to 100% by then.

That sucks for Ricky but at least he's not missing any good tournaments..

I would've liked to see the strongest possible field at BFS, but yea seems to me he's mostly missing the "right" part of the season

Partly being glib but I totally agree, Beaver State Fling is a great tournament. I just wished the DGPT felt the same way

Anyone find video of Ricky's opening pitch at the Reds game 7-5-2022?

Very cool. Most folks throwing the ceremonial first pitch get a fairly warm welcome, but some definitely receive more enthusiastic greetings than others. I'd be curious to hear the crowd's reaction when Ricky was announced on the PA at Great American Ballpark.

And yes, actual video of the toss itself would be great.

I can help answer your curiosity about the crowd reaction by simulating the sound of the reaction via text below.

"WHEEEW WHEEW WHEEEOOW"

See if this link works or if you need to be in the local FB group. Possibly will have more folks watching if he makes the lead card Sunday...

Nice, thanks! That guest catcher was no help fielding a respectable throw from Ricky.

Thanks for the link Sysiphus. I know it's all part of the pregame festivities, but that still seems like a lot of empty seats. :\

That's cuz, you know, the reds.

He should have thrown some drives from home plate to straightaway center.
It's not like he would hit anybody...

A disc golf home run derby would be sweet. The Foundation guys tried and failed, but actual throwers would be awesome to watch.

The question is - how do you score it? Because some "actual throwers" would probably be, barring bad winds, clearing pretty much every big league wall to all fields 10/10 throws with a decent disc. Mids only?

Good observation!
10 throws. 1 point for drivers, 2pts fairways, 3 pts mids, 5 pts putters

Values triple with forehand!

I'm guessing a lot of pros can still whack a putter out 400+

And then you get into the squabble of what's a mid vs putter, fairway vs driver. Things like that.


It'd be fun though!

Need a couple of tall flags to center field wall. Shot has to go between double mando for added funsies. Find a field with like 425+' center field. Plus the height of the wall, probably 450' air shot, no skips. I doubt many putters would go over?
