Akayla Gardner is probably a very good reporter but…”Me and my colleague…”

Really? Sigh. #MSNBC #MSNOW

The Red Sox may be shooting for higher than Sonny Gray, but the #stlcards have a “top of rotation” starter and Chaim Bloom could probably decipher the Boston farm system as good as anyone.

What happens to the remains after FELOTUS blows up these alleged drug boats? Who if anyone, recovers the bodies? What happens to them? Is there any way to analyze the remains to see if indeed there were illegal drugs on board?

So some folks are teed off because a shock-value comedian joked about molestation and pedophilia, but are completely ok with voting for a molester and pedophile for president. Got it. #NikkiGlaser #SNL #NBC

8 and 4 for me! How about you??

While recovering from knee replacement surgery, I watched Kathryn Bigelow’s House of Dynamite. What an all-star cast, but I sure didn’t expect to see Angel Reese!

Karoline Leavitt officially announced the "Launch of a large-scale investigation to find the people behind 'No Kings.'"

I've saved her some time.

It’s happening. Jamaica is in there somewhere. 🙏🙏

Dad joke:

My son told me he was awarded the Leslie Nielsen badge at school, I asked "what's that?"

He said " a big building with lots of kids"

Wow. Jamaica. 🙏

40 years ago today. Fortunately with the institution of replay, MLB had sense enough to award the Saint Louis Cardinals the 1985 World Series Championship (upon further review).

Prayers for Jamaica. Hurricane Melissa is unbelievable.

At the risk of sounding like a classic boomer, man I love this World Series game 2, with starting pitchers throwing down the gauntlet! #WorldSeries Dodgers vs Blue Jays

Farewell, June Lockhart.

You’ll always be Dr. Maureen Robinson to me, but I also love you for being the best ally to the LBGTQ+ community.

June Lockhart was a rabid supporter of a free and open press. This remembrance of her from my former boss at WJBC, Steve Vogel.

Fake Christian.
While she's normally aggressive with the media, Karoline Leavitt took things to a new level when she levied a playground-level response at a reporter. I react to the "Your Mom" comment and explain exactly what type of person Leavitt is.

Goodbye to a true legend, June Lockhart, 100 years young. Timmy has lost his “second mother” and so has a generation.

I’m really surprised Davis and Smoltz haven’t discussed Vesia’s unavailability for this series at that key spot. With the game on the line in the 6th, I’d think Roberts would employ his best lefty against “Grand Slam” Barger. #WorldSeries. #WorldSeriesOnFox

Too bad they can’t help against tin foil hats.
