Ask your doctor if ACC Football is right for you.

It is not.

Fellas, if you want to act like Dick(less) here, you’re gross and the problem.

If you aren’t absolutely repulsed by this guy’s “thinking,” you need to look at yourself.

Also if you disagree for me, please block me and save me the time.

Has this World Series consistently featured the highest quality of baseball? No. Has it featured the widest array possible of beautiful, weird, specific baseball delights? Yes.

There is no funnier tradition in #baseball than the bullpens running in side by side when the benches clear like the slowest cavalry ever only to arrive when things are calming down. #WorldSeries

Heard a bunch of old guys singing in an Irish pub in Cooperstown. Turns out they were members of the Pitt glee club in the 70’s.

Here is ‘Hail to Pitt’ courtesy of them:

1) “The Ship That Stood Still” by Leslie Reade about the SS Californian and the night of the Titanic disaster.

2) My wife’s unreal homemade red sauce, sausage, and pasta
That brings us to tonight’s questions-
1) what are you reading this week?
2) and what is on the menu at your home tonight? #HATM

I think #Primantis needs a tall boy sandwich that ties in to Pike's hair from this episode of #StrangeNewWorlds.
Okay, who's the Pittsburgh sandwich fan in the #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds writers room? (Not a spoiler!)

This.

Also, I'm definitely not messing with someone who might be able to summon Vigo the Carpathian to come after me...

Titanic, naval history, maritime history, Star Trek, the Godfather Trilogy, things that absolutely annoy me, how awesome dogs are
If asked to filibuster like Cory Booker, what are your topics you can speak to for 20+ hours?

I just got added to a very interesting group chat. "Admiral Yamamoto" is apparently discussing plans for an attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941. "Admiral Nagumo" isn't in favor, but said he would go along with his boss.

Not sure why I was added, but big if true!

On a related note (because I waded into a comment war on FB), people who want to purchase a LEGO set really should have to pass a test first to ensure they haven't lost their inner child or imagination.

Saying "LEGO is only for adults!" is both ridiculously stupid and completely out of touch.

Nothing is more annoying than when someone who doesn't know you (or really someone who does as well) refers to you as "my brother in Christ."

I'm nobody's brother in anything unless you're one of my brothers-in-law. GTFOH with that weird faux-friendliness trash.

As you gather with your loved ones today, spare a moment for these men who, 80 years ago, spent their Christmas Eve first heading off to the war and then fighting for their lives in the frigid waters off Cherbourg.

I’m confused. Was tonight when Crosby passes the baton to Giroux? Or is that still coming?

@jmarshpgh.bsky.social any insider knowledge of if this is still taking place? 🤣🤣🤣

My annual plea to have a feed of the #MacysThanksgivingDayParade that is just the marching bands and the floats and none of the auto-tuned lip sync performances. Please and thanks. #Band
