I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Hell yeah let's fucking go!!!

The Astros are hiring Conner Watson as their new director of hitting, source tells @theathletic.com. Watson, a former Driveline employee, worked as the Cleveland Guardians assistant director of hitting development for the past two years.

It's, uh, not the best headline, but I don't feel like dunking on a story of a woman who escaped a cult and an abusive husband. Anyway, fuck Ben Zobrist.

It's a shame Rangers fans won't be able to help because they can't read.

If you are traveling to St. Pete for the World Series, I highly recommend stopping by Floridarama. It’s an interactive exhibit by local artists and it’s only a five-minute drive from the Trop. Kid-friendly and indoors. Closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays, tho.

It is, ultimately, good for baseball to have heroes and villains. To have teams like the Yankees, Astros, and Dodgers that people love to hate. But man is it nice to just be able to watch an ALCS between two perfectly pleasant teams who will then play a perfectly pleasant team in the World Series.

Jalen Hurts is a complete sentence.

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts, who is out for the season after several blood clots were revealed in his lungs. Before the London game, Hurts was in the hospital until 4 am and did not sleep because sleep was a risk. He played the game without having slept. Crazy.

Can't wait to see thirty of these piled up in Big Tujunga Canyon after the GVBC inexplicably decides to take them through the Shadies at 80 mph.

Fuck ya’all. I’ve got an opinion and I don’t give a flying fuck if you like it. So sit down, shut your ass up, and take what I’ve gotta say cuz I’m not sorry if it triggers you. (*six minutes, twenty seven seconds later*) I’ve turned off comments and quote tweets on this post because of the trolls

Seeing Astros fans post that "The energy in Dodger Stadium evaporated" video like their own players weren't just talking about how lame the atmosphere was at Daikin Park.

No one will make this argument, but it is the correct one. You should pay your off the field personnel more and treat that part like a real business trying to retain and grow talent in a positive environment

With that LL Cool J clip going around, let me tell you something that just happened to me: I was recently on the set of NCIS: NY and met the man himself. I called him Mr. Cool J. He said "Call me Todd," and I replied that there's absolutely no way I could do that.
