I think that might be why it was a bad example: it gives away a good answer, especially in a room that tends to think more recently. At least, that's how I took it. As it is, when I play along with this game, I always go old, in part because I know the fells won't. 😛
@@BendyDH the Cleveland Spiders won 13% (20-134) of their games. Even if the white Sox lose all 59 remaining games, they'll finish 27-135, which is a 16.6% win rate.
@@BendyDH The White Sox, as of today (27-77), have the 6th worst winning percentage of any team since 1900 at 25.96% - the low point in that time frame (the 1916 Philadelphia Athletics) is only 23.53%, so there's a non-zero chance the White Sox could catch that mark if they gut the team during the second half of the season lol. As Alex mentioned, there are some dire late 19th century teams (three teams with 130+ game seasons won less than 20% of their games including the notorious 1899 Spiders) which the Sox have little chance of catching, luckily for them. To match the Spiders, Chicago would've needed to go 21-141 which is near impossible pace in the modern game. If we limit our discussion to more modern teams (the Divisional era stretches back to 56 years to 1969, so a good timeframe), the White Sox are currently the bottom of the barrel. The 2003 Tigers with a 26.54% win rate (a final record of 43-119) are pretty close to that mark, as are the 2018 Orioles (47-115 or 29.01%) and 2019 Tigers (47-114 or 29.19%) but they are the only 4 Divisional era teams to win less than 30% of their games. For further context, last year's A's finished 2 games above the 30% threshold with the next closest Royals just under 35%, so we're talking dire territory here lmao :P
@@BendyDH More or less, yeah. Going 16 - 42 in the final stretch would tie the 2003 Tigers, so anything worse than that would do the trick! In fact, if they can manage to accrue 5 extra losses for an 11 - 47 end to the season, their 38 - 124 record would be enough to get them below those 1916 A's. 'tis perhaps a bit unlikely, but might as well dream big :D
Why figure out the answers on the fly? Just make a list of every team for each category and sort it by largest to smallest. It really wouldnt take that long
When he said that, I immediately got curious to look him up. Good catch. Back then, they only had the one award so there was always a chance it went to some AL stud, like a Whitey Ford or Early Wynn type. My guess is Jolly didn't think to look at the previous iterations of franchises for Cy Young, as that award is relatively young. (Although he did know to include Newk for the Dodgers' count.) One sneaky pick for the MVP round is Minnesota, since the Twins' history also includes the first Washington Senators franchise. Walter Johnson must have picked up a couple, along with the old-timers like Rice, Goslin, Cronin, etc. Not sure the total, though, as the Twins MVP well was dry throughout the 80s and 90s.

Are we not gonna talk about 20:58 ??? BBD with the shenanigans, did he see Cardinals on Ryan's list and decide to negate that play by adding it into his picks? 😮😮😮
From a "Care about the insides of Jomboy Media" standpoint, I get the feeling that they had to do the ad reads closer to the video release due to not knowing the exact details at time of recording, but when that time came, Jolly was in Italy so we get Shelfy doing ad reads and intros in videos is isn't in. If that is the case it makes me chuckle.
Idk why but the first name that crossed my mind for Cy Young question was Blue Jays, got 2 outa Clemens, and 1 outa Robbie Ray, weird one and I know nobody else would say it
Braves had 7 Cy Youngs, Mets as well. Padres only had 5. Dodgers had 14 MVPs. I think Jolly missed 1913 and 1924. You could just count MVPs from 1931 for the modern BBWAA MVP, but Jolly did include the full pre-1931 list for the Giants, Cards, Braves, and Tigers (and figured it out for the A's). Red Sox were worth 12 Love ya though Jolly
The 2nd version of the senators that became the Rangers didn't win any Cys or MVPs. The Senators that became the Twins won 4 mvps but nobody picked them.
you guys should do a player draft. but with teams and major awards. Example: Dodgers Cy young’s. and then the dodgers are off the board. Major awards being rookie of the year, mvp, cy young. or you could do one with just gold gloves and silver slugger. EDIT: just watched the video lol
I'm glad Ryan is finally exploiting the east coast bias that the rest of the company seems to have to get a good lead. Unfortunate that the goose egg came along with it at the end lol
As an Astros fan I knew the Angels would be a big number. They haven’t had a winning season since 2015. Like at least your Mariners got close to the postseason several years. But the Angels haven’t even been .500 with Trout and Ohtani.
Instead of matching answers canceling each other out, you should have however many contestants with the same answer split the points. I feel like this would take a ton of random luck out of the whole thing and also create some incentive to go for the biggest answers without just “playing defense”
But then they’d all just go for the top answers instead of more obscure answers. It’s an added layer to the game if they have to avoid overlapping answers.
It is literally the core game mechanic that adds strategy into scattergories. The point of the double-up cancelling out is to encourage more creative responses. In a split methodology, it would incentivize going with the most obvious answers because the outcomes are either: - No one else guesses and I get all those delicious points - One or two others guess the same answer, but I still get some But with how lopsided the potential point values are for some of the "obvious" answers to these questions, it would encourage playing it safe because worst case scenario everyone gets the same amount of points. But the worst case scenario is you do not guess it and your opponent gets everything. Playing defense mostly occurs when someone is in the lead and trying to protect their margin. Going with the split rule would encourage that from question one Which at that point just makes it a trivia competition. And if you are looking for videos in that style, they already do them
@@mattsowers8145that’s all fine and dandy but in the last round BBD won on nothing but pure luck, he didn’t have better or more obscure answers than Ryan or Jake. Why should Ryan have no shot to win because he happened to overlap with the 3rd contestant more? Not to mention the way this works is already nothing like scattergories because the most you can get in real scattergories is 2 points per answer for an alliterative first and last name. They’ve already strayed from the true formula and you would still be penalized for duplicate answers
@@coreybarnofsky4196 saying BBD won on pure luck is just nonsense. In his first guess of the giants, he gets 10 for the current and 4 for the historic. And then with his guess of the rangers, specifically calls out that it is the only "not old" franchise he wrote down. Meaning he clearly had a strategy And then right after that, he guesses the cardinals, literally called out as a blocker when Ryan also had them because that would have been (under your rules) a wash or worth 10.5 points which would have been massive To your point on "why should Ryan have no shot to win because he happened to overlap with the 3rd contestant more?", the answer is because it is scattergories Yes, they added in the point change. But if you remove the double-up cancel then you would absolutely have to change the name Because at that point, it would have absolutely nothing to do with the parent game
