It's becoming increasingly clear why upper-level media has a difficult time bringing the various scandals and debauchery of the political class to the public's attention eh?

Huge news from the Mariners and Seahawks today, as neither got actively worse.

I am an old and washed gamer who plays approximately two (2) video games a year but just ran credits on Ghost of Yotei and thought it was Very Good and Fun, especially on hard.

I wrote about the Mariners signing Josh Naylor and how he's a bit of a Rorschach test in terms of what you prefer to highlight from his track record:

In honor of the Seattle Mariners re-signing Josh Naylor it's time for a Bad Skeet™️

Woke up feeling....better about the Hawks than I did yesterday? I dunno man. Losing a close game against a good team on the road on a missed field goal where you fell behind 14-3 in a blink and your defense put Sean McVay in hell was not a bad result.

The Mariners pretty much had to re-sign Josh Naylor, even those he's much much closer to "above average" than what he looked like in Seattle last year. They also pretty much have to acquire two more infielders now.

Matt Stafford may end up being better than Sam Darnold

Irrelevant in the broad picture but for posterity: that flag on Witherspoon is the softest flag I have ever seen.

The current era of the Mariners is, genuinely, pretty fun for the most part. But I will always wonder what path the franchise would have gone down from 2016-2020 or so had No Moves won out earlier and Jerry hadn't been allowed to transact.
