So you couldnt find one a single person who was diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel because of playing PS4? Got it. Nope just a good point of reference to go to. You can believe whatever you want to believe. I don't really care. Done. Last post. I think "believing what you want to believe" is a big part of the problem actually.

Who are the "lot" of gamers youre referring to? Is there a study you're thinking of that you can link to? And how many of those "gamers" are PC players that play on mouse and keyboard? In other words, there is no link whatsoever to this claim and "a lot of" doctors are refuting it. So why are you repeating it? Here's a good point of reference Google gaming and carpal tunnel syndrome. Here's one great answer for you to digest- www.zocdoc.com/answers/9612/can-you-get-carpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-playing-video-games"Carpal tunnel syndrome is so named because of a median neuropathy, for reasons unknown, which results in tingling, numbness, burning in the thumb, index finger, and middle finger on the affected side. There is an anatomic structure in your wrist called the "carpal tunnel" made up of the carpal bones (wrist bones), a transverse carpal ligament, nine flexor tendons, and the median nerve. The tendons are what attach muscles in your arm/forearm to the bones of your hands to move the hand and/or fingers. Some theorize that swelling in one or more of these tendons results in the compression of the other structures going through this relatively narrow anatomic space (hence the name "tunnel"). This includes the median nerve. Nerves as you are probably aware, don't like to be irritated or compressed. Pressure on the nerve can cause it to work abnormally, or to stop working altogether. This explains the symptoms. Some argue that it is the position of the wrists during repetitive movements that plays a key role in the development of the disorder (carpal tunnel syndrome). One surgical treatment is to over the "roof" of the tunnel which is to cut the tranverse carpal ligament which releases a lot of the pressure. It is within reason to think that it is possible to develop carpal tunnel as a result of the repetitive movements associated with playing video games frequently and for long periods of time. However, every patient is different, and no one will be able to tell you for sure if you will or will not develop it. If you develop any of the symptoms, I would recommend talking to your primary care physician and perhaps getting a referral to see a hand specialist. I hope this is helpful, and I wish you all the best." Done with this argument. So you couldnt find one a single person who was diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel because of playing PS4? Got it.

A lot of gamers experience carpal tunnel. I don't know how anyone can exclusively say it's not directly related, especially if he's playing for hours a night. To their point, it can be caused by a lot of things, not just Fortnight. Who are the "lot" of gamers youre referring to? Is there a study you're thinking of that you can link to? And how many of those "gamers" are PC players that play on mouse and keyboard? In other words, there is no link whatsoever to this claim and "a lot of" doctors are refuting it. So why are you repeating it?

Edit- FWIW Cora was already asked about Price playing too much Fortnight (a video game that is apparently big in the Sox clubhouse), and Cora said he was going to talk to Price about it when he gets to the team tomorrow.

I stopped watching after they called a loose ball foul on Smart for getting landed on by Simmons. Seemed pretty obvious that the NBA wanted this series extended after that call. I was right.

George Kottaras was a PTBNL who amounted to very little as opposed to nothing at all.

@peteabe: Manaea said he assumed the ball Leon reached on in the 5th inning was a hit because that’s usually called a hit. He didn’t realize it wasn’t until a few innings later.

No really, how was Leon's hit called an error? If you're talking that bloop popup to SS - it should have been caught. A major league SS should catch that. I looked for a replay, but couldn't find one. Didn't he have his back to the plate? That's anything but routine.
