Hello! It's John on BlueSky. Follow me here and we'll talk about something or other. It will probably have to do with Evansville, or Bob Dylan (swoon), or the Cincinnati Reds. Or whatever. We'll figure it all out as we go.

BlueSky doesn't seem to be getting much traction. Am I wrong?

Good grief, hope he's ready to start the season. #Reds
Alexis Diaz has yet to get into games, partly by design, but also because he felt something in his hamstring after a slip during PFP drills, according to Francona. Diaz threw 25 pitches in live BP Sunday and said he felt good. Might get another live BP and could be in first Cactus League game soon.

That USI trail is such a treasure here. A run there and then coffee and the West Side Honey Moon makes for a nice Sunday morning.

As of now, thinking Chiefs and the under. It worked out for me last year in the Super Bowl, so.

Ainsley Earhardt makes a case for RFK Jr: "When you go to Europe, the food is delicious. It's so fresh. And you don't gain weight if you eat a big bowl of pasta. So we want that to come here to America."

Today marks the 50th anniversary of Bob Dylan’s landmark 1975 album, Blood on the Tracks. One of the most emotion-filled breakup records ever made, it is personal and painful, with poetic lyrics that flow from a broken heart. It ranks #16 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
