I would’ve loved to see a video about the famous Jack’s in history, for obvious reasons. Like “Bob,” most people called “Jack” aren’t Jack on the their birth certificate. Usually “Jo(h)nathan” but instead of John, some go by Jack. Not me, though. The name on my birth certificate is Jack. People apparently think this is so uncommon I’ve received three separate first paychecks at jobs made out to Jo(h)nathan. I couldn’t cash them, because that’s not me. Maybe I’m biased (lol) but I feel like I would like the name Jack even if it wasn’t my own. I feel like a special snowflake, in a world of John’s and occasionally James’ masquerading as Jacks? I’m the real deal.

Hey everybody, quick story about Bob Cousy in Blue Chips. I got work as a production assistant for an upcoming documentary on the NBA 75th season. We had to interview Bob Cousy, currently in his 90s. He told a ton of stories but he talked about the free throws in blue chips while we were setting up. According to Bob, he hit 21 in a row between all of the takes. Now i can't confirm it for a fact, but he was very self deferential and humble, not one to brag. So personally I believe him.

I’d argue Pedro Martinez’s 2000 was an even bigger statistical outlier. He had an ERA of 1.74 pitching in the AL East during the height of the steroid era. His ERA+ that year was 291, on a scale where 100 is average. Meaning, Pedro was almost 3 times better that season than the average pitcher. For reference, the only pitcher to ever record a higher ERA+ was Tim Keefe way back in his rookie year of 1880 when baseball was a completely different game.

Throughout his life, absolutely nothing and nobody on the planet Earth could stop Bob Gibson. So they moved he Earth itself. And that didn't work either. Rest in Power, Bob.

Pedro Martinez 1999 to 2000. That has legitimate argument for being the greatest along with Gibson. Remember that Pedro Martinez was throwing up earned run average of 1.6 in an era where the second-best was 3.7, and The League average was five. Gibson had an excellent season, but he didn't beat the next best pitcher in his League by two runs.

Make sure that, in order to achieve success in professional sports, he works out every other day 8 times every 2 weeks.

David Castillo That is a golden comment

Jon's lines are absolutely chilling. "Throughout his entire life absolutely nothing and nobody on Earth could stop Bob Gibson, so they moved the Earth itself. And that didn't work, either." Just, damn. Damn. Half way through the vid I was trying to control my laughter and by the end I'm scared.

1960: *The first manned submarine reaches the ocean's lowest point, the Challenger Deep, at more than 35 000 feet.* Jon Bois: "You call that a deep dive?"

Imagine this being your job... Jon you are truly living the life.

Let’s be honest though. Not many people have the patience to collect all this data, as well as create the graphics.

@@lakedubois8109 I think there are a lot of people capable of doing those things. But Jon has the power to deliver the story inside the data to us in a groundbreaking, powerful way. He just delivers. Like Gibson did.

Ville Lahti you have a point. Maybe it’s just the fact that I personally can’t see myself doing it haha. You’re right though. Jon has a compelling way of pulling you in like no one I’ve seen before on YT

Most of this job is just looking through incredibly dry lists of statistics. Jon's ability to turn the dry numbers of athletes I've never heard of in sports I'm not a big fan of into compelling narratives is unparalleled.

If this was easy, KZread would be good.

I can't explain why, but the part where Jon says that if someone goes by Bob, it's a safe bet that someone really loves them deeply moved me. Something about it just seems so poignant.

What sounded like the premise of a overtly long s**tpost, turned out to be an emotional tale of struggle, excellence, and friendship.

Came to watch this again after Bob Gibson passed away due to cancer. I can't believe that I had never heard of him until watching this video for the first time considering hiw great he was. RIP Mr. Gibson

I remember Bob Hamelin's stint as a Tiger. The first time I saw him step to the plate, I couldn't figure out why the Tigers plucked some guy out of the stands, gave him a jersey and let him play with them. He then he hit a no doubt homer.

This reminds me of looking at Google maps at the continent scale then slowly zooming down to some random area and continuing to zoom until you're looking at a neighbourhood you've never seen before. There's nothing quite like this anywhere. This should be a Netflix show. Give Bois a bigger budget, a team of a dozen or so animators with a big render farm and boom, instant sports analysis classic. Also, my name is Bob and after the intro, my name ceased to sound correct to my ears for another 10 mins, which is also mind blowing.

What's funny is that he actually animates these *with* the Google Earth software, just texturing random bits of ground then using the camera automation controls to record it.

Update; the tb rays currently feature a 2b named BOB SEYMOUR in spring training 2024. The candle flame dances.

This is the most Jon Bois video topic ever

Do you think John made this video just to test whether or not we would watch literally anything he made? If so then he’s proved in convincing fashion that yes, yes we will.

I watched the 1930’s basketball game clip. Please don’t. I lost IQ points.
