this is yalls regular reminder: if you come incorrect in my mentions – I will embarrass you in front of your friends and family. and I will not apologize.
ladies and gentlemen, meet today's Coward of the Week. spends their time insulting schoolchildren, questioning the democratic process and rooting for the Dallas Cowboys
I taught a class yesterday at LMU, went to vote, did a quick happy hour beer and to-go at my fave spot near campus and went home yesterday. got back around 4:30p PT exhausted from the last couple days. got straight in bed. Woke up an hour ago in a brand new country
if anyone deserves to walk away on their own terms, it's the indomitable Michael Ray Wilbon. from professional idol, to colleague, to friend, I will always root for him in every path he takes.
the story below is old, but for those who have not known his grace, give it a read
quick personal story for. if you don’t know, this is @RealMikeWilbon. 20+ years ago, this man very much changed the course of my career and thus life. To casually see him around the studio and be friends with him is still sorta surreal, no matter how many times we kick it.
winning is better than losing, as it were for what appears to be the best 2-4-1 team in the league. #Ashburnistan

The Brewers regarded smoking cigarettes before games as a good luck charm and their motto was ‘if we smoke heaters in the cage, we will smoke heaters in the game’
Christian Yelich on this:
“You walk by the cage and see the cigs lit and you’re like, the boys are ready to rock.”

people are going to be asking me about free big league playoff baseball for the rest of my life and I'm here for it

I felt this in my soul.
John Wall says he still texts his mother every morning and night and has continued to pay her phone bill to keep her number active since she passed away in 2019
“I made sure I paid the bill for that for the rest of the time I’m going to be on this earth, so I can send my daily text in the morning and my daily text at night”
“It helps me. I know she can’t respond, but I can still send my messages and know that nobody else has her number. And sometimes you have your moments when you just sitting at home and you just reflect”
“And I always look at pictures and reflect. My display screen on my phone is my first game against the Sixers, and we win the game and I give her a hug, and I always keep that as my bio picture”
