Losers claiming Brewers cheating. Like maybe they are just a significantly better team. The Brewers bullpen is light years ahead and their hitters are relentless.
My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today.
Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.
The most bizarre thing is reading an article about Kawhi missing the game tonight with it noting that he is just averaging 19.5 pts per game. It has been two games LOL
Bought a coffee because i was tired and my son wanted us to get the monopoly stickers. Naturally, he knocks over the coffee before I could drink any of it lol
Brad Bradford is like if the public perception of NDP as spenders, but if it was run by an anger emoji. All the while claiming to be fiscally responsible. Dude has no money for all of his promises.
Another one.
The premise: Young people are cutting off their parents for minor mistakes and misunderstandings.
The lead anecdote: A woman severs ties with her family for refusing to get vaccinated before her wedding — to a man who *lost his mother and brother to COVID*
In pre-Confederation Canada, there was a group of polticians didn’t belong to any party. who often voted in a way that was politically advantageous to them (“loose fish”). Sounds very familiar. Can’t put my finger on it.
It is currently 2c outside but my wife says we need to check the forecast before turning on the heat. I get the resistance due to the cost of everything these days but I am wearing 2 sweaters
we should be framing the Jake Bauers insurance story as pro-player and anti-lockout
these are not all millionaires a lot of them are guys who need healthcare for their families and are tied to a job
just like you
FOX keeps telling the “Jake Bauers only didn’t quit baseball because his wife was pregnant and his family wouldn’t have healthcare otherwise” story like it’s a charming story and not a complete failure of this country.
Which, of course, is very fitting for baseball.
Of all the great baseball literature in history, no one—not WP Kinsella or Ring Lardner, Richard Ben Cramer nor Leigh Montville; neither Halberstam nor Harbach or Rogers Kahn and Angells—NO ONE has written a gem as good as this one by @joeposnanski.com & Mike Schur

"Can you believe it, Liz?! They wouldn't sell me the $15,000 animatronic bird that I definitely didn't want to use for sex stuff with Mickey Rourke."
vs.
"Liz Lemon! Help me convince these people to let me buy their animatronic bird! I wanna give it to Tracy Jr. as a fill-in dad."
Getting into a PR war with a toy store in Brooklyn for not selling you a bird because you’re "only daytime TV famous" is a 30 Rock plotline that works for both Jenna and Tracy
2 of the 4 teams remaining in playoffs have never won a World Series. Another has not won in nearly 80 years. The other team has fans who still complain about Ernie Clement for some reason.
Happy Birthday Lourdes Gurriel Jr. He played in 68 career games for the #Bisons and also played in #Buffalo with the #BlueJays in 2020 and 2021. He was an N.L. All-Star in 2023 with the Arizona Diamondbacks.
