This guy was central in me falling in love with baseball and the Chicago Cubs, and really just sports in general. Whatever you do in this world, approach it the way Ryno approached baseball.
With great sadness, we share that Ryne Sandberg has passed away today.

This argument comes straight from the mouth of the Big Lebowski. And in the movie that dude is not the people’s champion.

As the opening bell to free agency rang Monday, the tallest player remaining on the Spurs' roster not named Victor Wembanyama was the 6-8 Jeremy Sochan.
The club remedied that situation post haste, quickly agreeing to terms with 7-2 Boston big man Luke Kornet.

When they came for the wockaflockas I did nothing, because I was not a wockaflocka.
When they came for the whatnots I did nothing, because I was not a whatnot.

An undeniably beautiful shot from today’s Thunder parade that captures the growth of the city and what it has overcome over the last 30 years to get to this moment — and just how much that title means to OKC.

Stephen A. Smith rants about why Kendrick Perkins is "REALLY ANNOYING" him ahead of Game 7.
Bob Myers after the rant: "Just because you yell something doesn't mean it's true." 🏀📺🎙️ #NBA #NBAFinals

If my Spurs are involved in a high profile trade that’s announced on the day of Finals Game 7 I won’t be mad…I’ll just be disappointed (which we all know is worse) #GoSpursGo #NBASky

I wouldn’t call it a “date” but I did convince my grandma to take me to see Space Balls.
Here’s a fun distraction what’s the worst movie you’ve watched on a date? Mine is a tie between “Hidden Colors” and “La La Land.”

I don’t want to speak for evangelicals but it is kind of offensive how he refers to the Almighty the same way you might refer to your uncle Greg who couldn’t make it to the wedding but sent a big check
Look I am always here for a religion angle but "I want to thank everybody and in particular God, I want to just say we love you God" is a weird-ass thing to say at a briefing

We see this all across Western North Carolina. Along with the great orgs in this report @abccmofficial.bsky.social and the churches of this community are working to meet the needs of families experiencing hunger.
The town of Swannanoa is a mess after Helene. Some businesses may never reopen — including the only grocery store. "Swannanoa is a food desert," says the head of a nonprofit that brings in fresh food.
9 months after Hurricane Helene, food scarcity is still real in western North Carolina

This captures what we are living through very well from the prospective of how U.S. leaders of all stripes for the past nearly 50 years have understood democracy and tyranny. Adam Serwer describes our descent into authoritarianism about as well as one can. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
The Tyrant Test
A leader who uses military force to suppress his political opposition ought to lose the right to govern.
