Fanatics Founder Can't Throw a Baseball to Save His Life

If you built your business on sports, one would think that you’d actually be good at sports

Published 8 months ago in Funny

If you built your business on sports, one would think that you’d actually be good at, well, sports. However, the founder of Fanatics proves just how wrong that idea can be. Recently, a video came out of Michael Rubin showing off his pitching skills, or lack thereof. He whiffs pretty much every attempt, either missing the center or throwing the ball embarrassingly slowly. It’s no surprise that there seems to be an attempt to scrub this video from the internet—but don’t worry, we’ve got you covered, unlike the pants his company makes.

The Chinese are Now Making Documentaries About Extreme Poverty in America

When I was growing up, conversations around Chinese poverty were endless.

When I was growing up, conversations around Chinese poverty were endless. We were shown video after video of people living in slums, or children manufacturing sneakers for pennies a day. “How terrible,” we rightly thought. Well, in the years since, a lot has changed in China. Child labor has dropped precipitously, and the nation has eliminated extreme poverty within its borders.

That puts documentarians in a bad position. Where are you going to go to show starving people? People living in poor conditions? Buildings in disrepair?...Wait a minute, why are you looking at us like that?

Pulling the ultimate UNO reverse card, it seems that Chinese documentary shows are now traveling to the U.S. to show “how the other half lives.” Hey, at least our waterfalls are real.

Chinese are making documentaries about ultra-extreme poverty and decaying cities, since they don’t exist in #China anymore.

And the prime location for these films? Greatest country on earth, USA ! Welcome to Oakland, California: pic.twitter.com/DlITruvvkr
