I am back online. I don't know how I survived draft weekend without my cable.



Now off to watch something utterly valueless, like this YouTube clip of Faster Pussycat covering "You're So Vain". (a.k.a. the perils of letting a One Hit Wonder cover a truly classic song...) I can't think of anything that encapsulates the internet more...

So I need an analogous situation to slaying. Most of the time the slayer is alone and not taking cues from anyone. So what would give her strategy away to an opponent, and how is that an analogy to baseball, and who in baseball is a good analogy to a lone slayer who gives her strategy away?

A better example might be football. On any given pass play, the quarterback has three to five players to throw to... but if he only looks on one side of the field, his pass will be intercepted by a defender. "Collins is a moron. He just kept staring right, and the safety jumped the play. You have to look the defender off before you go back to that side of the field..."



The other general thing she could use is boxing... Like, maybe they're in a gym watching two amateur boxers spar. And Faith can point something out... like, one of the boxers has a twitch that gives a punch away. "Watch Ruiz dip his shoulder. It's not much, but you can see it. Every time he's about to throw his hook, he drops his shoulder a little."
