This section of Linda Fiorentino's Wikipedia page is hilarious.
"I don't know why men expect me to be a femme fatale in real life." Later: "Time to seduce an FBI agent to get my hands on the evidence against my sleazy detective boyfriend."

![Personal Life: Fiorentino married film director and writer John Byrum, whom she had previously worked with on the unfinished movie The War at Home, on June 23, 1992.[45] The couple divorced in 1993, after a year of marriage.[10][46] In an interview with film critic Roger Ebert shortly after The Last Seduction came out, Fiorentino admitted that the men she met in real life expected her to be like her devious characters, and said that when it came to the parts that she was offered, "Maybe others see in me what I don't necessarily see in myself. And a lot of it in Hollywood has to do with what you look like. I'm dark and my eyes are dark and my voice is deep, and how the hell could I play a Meg Ryan role, the way I look?"[28]
Fiorentino later had a relationship with Los Angeles private investigator Anthony Pellicano, in the period leading to his 2008 trial and conviction, in Los Angeles, on multiple felony charges. While Pellicano was being investigated, Fiorentino also dated former Federal Bureau of Investigation agent Mark Rossini, which law enforcement officials said was her attempt to assist Pellicano's defense.[47] According to prosecutors, Fiorentino told Rossini that she was researching a screenplay based on Pellicano's case. Rossini conducted searches of government computers for information related to the case and passed the results to Fiorentino,[48] who then handed the files over to Pellicano's lawyers in a failed effort to help Pellicano avoid a 15-year prison sentence.[47] Rossini pleaded guilty to illegally accessing FBI computers and resigned from the FBI.[47]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:zp7mmzri26cqzfy5r73jbw4a/bafkreidyvf7cgxv25kmzjq52ryvxlupi72wjyceyblfrxt6huol2aoupqa@jpeg)

Missing on Sasaki (and others) was surely frustrating for Blue Jay fans but it's probably a good thing that this type of stuff got them close.

Lots of baseball fans think a salary cap is necessary for parity. Out of curiosity, I looked up the results of the Wild Card era, 1995-2024, the past 30 years. Here is how many times each club made the playoffs, followed by how many times they got bounced in the first round or won it all.

Pretty funny that Clemens switches from “you” to “I” halfway through his thought here.
