There should be at least one legally required day game every day
This is something @slangsonsports.bsky.social would love
You think you know stress? When I grew up, if you missed a TV show you just missed it. Forever.
Some light beach reading @vermontgmg.bsky.social
I wish there was a feed of trades that ALMOST happened
This was just as abysmal in real time
So close
Just filled in my spouse on the last 6 days of action on this, hearing how crazy it all sounds and still being ok with it
The whole sequence was just bizarre
My boomer parents are so inconsistent with their phone usage. My mother is trying to find a new doctor but will only look for appointments online, when calling would be so much quicker. My father got a newspaper subscription and didn’t think you could do it online, and calling was a nightmare
Like the Celtics getting McHale and Parish
Not gonna lie, that one stings a bit
Trump is aggressively incurious and ignorant about most things outside of thuggery and being on TV, but the new thing this term is that he’s made sure there’s nobody around him to correct him or tell him no. It’s not a good spot for the country.
😁 Long story short, I tried to back up a 15 passenger van while standing outside the van and using my hand on the brake. I forgot to put it into park and it rolled onto my foot. I was both the reckless driver and the innocent pedestrian
Working at a car rental agency as a teenager, I drove a van over my own foot
he’s known as Michael Best Foods west of the Rockies
Couldn’t come up with a better one if they tried
Look, you big pathetic baby. You can drive your car. To access one small part of NYC by car, you have to pay slightly more than the amount those of us who ride the subway do to take a round trip. Stop crying, Sean Duffy. bsky.app/profile/atru...
As if @mcsweeneys.net wasn't already among the last remaining good websites, they're doing this. www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/les...
I remember this so clearly. I had just moved to NYC to work at a non-profit that was heavily dependent on donors from large financial institutions. I remember feeling for weeks that I was going to lose my job, and then I was forever thankful and lucky that I didn’t.
It's @sullybaseball.bsky.social's annual baseball In Memoriam. This is always so, so well done. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISl3...
It’s disheartening to watch the worst people in the country sabotage the entire government, and the 330 million people who interact with it in some way, for no good reason at all. Everything is being done in the most inhumane and callous way possible, every time, just because
Not a single person on screen has ever been on the NYC subway
"As you look back, it clearly is a key moment in American history as well." Five years ago today, the NBA suspended its season because of COVID-19. Baxter Holmes and Tim MacMahon look back at the league's shutdown and how it changed sports forever.
Maybe he’s just shorting America at this point
One thing I regretted from the 1st Trump admin was not keeping a list of all the batshit crazy things that happened on a daily basis to look back on. I thought I could for the 2nd but there's just too much. Like trying to count raindrops or sand - just overwhelming and impossible
Ichiro has the 2nd most innings pitched for a Hall of Famer who pitched for the Marlins.
I’ve never been an alarmist with sports Hall of Fame voting. But I really think you should not be granted what many baseball fans consider a high honor if you didn’t vote for Ichiro.
They were who we thought they were
Happy shit hits the fan day
When public figures speak like this, I always wonder if they teach their kids to do the same. Even if they don’t explicitly, the modeling is insidious.
One of the best
It's getting harder and harder to defend the @nytimes.com when they publish a roundtable podcast seriously defending the Panama, Greenland and Canada thoughts without anyone saying they are batshit crazy. Not everything needs to have both sides - some ideas can just be called insane
Over the last few months, I found myself on Facebook less and less, and finding the quality of everything to be lower and lower. 1/2 of the posts were ads, groups I am not in, or "influencers" I don't follow. And it's only going to get worse. Buh Bye Facebook. This is easier than deleting Twitter
It's one banana, Michael. How much could it cost? $6.2 million?
Amazing that baseball fans for the most part just want no blackouts and for the national broadcasts not to suck for the big games and Manfred is like let’s have a piñata in center field and whichever team breaks it first wins the game
Dr. Oz should be able to help you buy veggies
Matt Gaetz’s attorney general nomination
I'm just annoyed that I had a chance to watch the Red Sox play there in 2022 and I didn't take it. A stadium I'll never get to 😔
Wrote about arguably my favorite topic in all of sports: Jerry Jones spending $1.2 billion on a stadium built at the exact orientation so the sun shines directly into players eyes during the months when the Cowboys play football: open.substack.com/pub/rodgersh...
Congrats MAGA world, we libs feel owned. Can we get the real nominees now? Please?
I deleted my Twitter/X account two years ago and my main source of social media interaction has been Facebook. I'm coming back here to have less doom posts from my friends and more actual news and information. Thanks for being a safe place without Nazis (yet)
