xkcd #3262: Sports Commentary

Not a perfect example, but stuff like this: Tony Gwynn did not strike out in back to back games during the 1992 season

If you watch a minor league baseball game, the announcers will discuss the game and give out hilariously specific information relevant to the game. When a batter comes up, they'll talk about the last time he encountered this pitcher, or how he does against left handed pitchers in general, or how this pitcher does against this team, or how this batter does later in the week. All of it could be relevant, but it becomes hyper specific.

BTW, I mention minor league baseball because you can watch it for free, as opposed to major league baseball, which costs a crapton of money, but you get the same experience in the major leagues. If you want to try a game, download the milb app and check it out. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bamnetworks.mobile.android.gameday.milb

The hot dog vendor says that will be $7.50. The monkey hands the vendor a $10 bill, which the vendor puts in the cash drawer. After a moment the monk asks "what about my change?" The vendor bows reverently and responds "change must come from within."

I always read symbiote spider man in this movie as Parker with the confidence to act how he thought would be cool. And he thought it would be cool to answer the phone in an unexpected way.
