Just ordered my @obviousshirts.bsky.social #FO23VER shirt and got a confirmation number ending in 23. Every day I'm try to focus on having watched Ryno more than I focus on missing him.

I believe Keith becomes the second @ccha.bsky.social alum to make the Hall. (Rob Blake was first).

Jennifer Botterill will also be inducted. I suspect she is the first sister of a CCHA alum to make it, but I have no way to verify that.
Former Blackhawks defenseman Duncan Keith to be inducted into Hockey Hall of Fame
Keith, in his first year eligible, was one of eight 2025 inductees named Tuesday.

I think the 7 goals the Fire put up tonight may make this the most successful Pride Raiser yet.

Trans rights are human rights.
Trans men are men.
Trans women are women.
Non-binary/gender fluid people exist and I'm proud of you too.
If I mess up on your name and/or pronouns, call me on it.

On Trans Day of Visibility, know that there's one more person out there who sees you. <3

On Pete Rose, who broke the One Rule and should never, ever be reinstated.

www.joesheehan.com
Over the weekend, there was a report that Rob Manfred was considering reinstating Pete Rose, who passed away last fall, from the permanently ineligible list. Rose has been on the list since 1989, having accepted the sentence for gambling on baseball.  Rose deserved his punishment and did nothing in his life to stop deserving it. Were Manfred and MLB to remove Rose from the list to chase some cheap positive publicity, it would be a disservice to the players who walk past Rule 21(d) every single day and don’t bet on the game, don’t violate the One Rule of baseball. Rose’s supporters cite MLB’s modern embrace of gambling in support of Rose’s reinstatement. It is, in fact, the opposite. More than ever, MLB needs Rose’s banishment for betting on baseball to stand as the example to all players: No one can ever break Rule 21(d). If we can punish Pete Rose, an all-time great and one of the most popular players ever, for betting on baseball, we can certainly punish you. Rose’s well-earned punishment is the single best deterrent MLB has against future gambling scandals.
