An "old dude" thing about me is I've started collecting old things. Could be a product of increased sentimentality after losing loved ones, or having a glimmer of financial stability for the first time in life, or pandemic brain making me more attached to "stuff" that reminds me of a different time.
That’s quite an aggressive typo there MLive!

Cade Cunningham had one of the most "Kobe" games I've seen in a long time last night. Not a good game at all, but such a perfect mix of absolute refusal to quit combined with enough volume to eventually be just enough.

I make a habit of watching as little Wizards basketball as possible, is Cam Whitmore always this annoying?

Fanduel Sports Detroit just ran the most disgusting ad I’ve ever seen that featured some loon on Rogan spouting Israeli military propaganda and I’m legit speechless. I thought the ICE ads were jarring but this one … holy shit.

It feels like Keyonte George has 34 turnovers tonight for Utah.

I’m still so sad Max Scherzer didn’t get a World Series in Detroit but seeing him have this old man playoff run has been beautiful.

I’m rooting for the Jays and I can’t lie … hitting Jimenez with the pitch right after he stuck his hand out trying to get hit was the right thing to do.

Daily Beast is on the “melt down” beat today apparently.

This is the absolute meanest thing Magic has ever tweeted, Jonathan Smith is so cooked.

This was a very funny prize to offer at a Michigan State football game.

Sengun is so soft, I hate this floppy garbage.

The disgust in George Blaha’s voice when he says “reckless close out” is hilarious, that man hates all these fancy new rules so much.

Chicago should be a bullet train hub. Minneapolis, Des Moines, St Louis, Kansas City, Green Bay, Madison, Milwaukee, Memphis, Indianapolis, Louisville, Nashville, Detroit, Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati should all be connected to Chicago via fast trains.

My son was five when this happened. It was his first vivid sports memory, and for better or worse (let's be honest ... occasionally it can be the WORST, but this day was the BEST), forever cemented him as a SpartanDawg.
my latest project for @forthewin.bsky.social, an oral history of "Trouble with the Snap" — the infamous 2015 Michigan-Michigan State game.

"A really surreal, emotional moment."

"You're just shocked."

"It still gives me goosebumps to this day."

These roses didn’t bloom all summer but I finally got one in the fall. #plantsky

Honestly Sparty, just go fire Jonathan Smith now and let Izzo be interim for a couple weeks. What could it even hurt?

Riley Greene has had some of the worst at bats I’ve ever seen from a good player tonight.

I don’t watch enough baseball to be an accurate judge, but I feel like Adam Wainwright and AJ Pierzynski have been fantastic broadcasting this Tigers-Mariners series.

Hope he stops texting and emailing me now especially since I don't even live in his district!

Once I made a joke about Woj and overt love for Kobe and he apparently name searched himself so he followed me just to DM me to let me know he read it then unfollowed me.

There’s never been a button hanging on for dear life the way AJ Pierzynski’s button is hanging on right now.

Joke of a joke of a joke of a call on Aliyah Boston in that moment and everything Napheesa Collier, Cheryl Reeve, etc have said about officiating is beyond warranted.
