Bad policy, bad character make bad politics: erratic tariffs, impulsive Iran war, blanket pardons, apparent corruption, weaponized justice, ICE brutality, mountainous deficits, hiding Epstein, abandoning allies and coddling enemies. Hoping for a course correction, for the country and for my party.

#OTD 1969 - After 25 years, Cardinals broadcaster Harry Caray was fired. This interview by Ron Jacober with Harry drinking a can of Schlitz beer after being terminated by the Anheuser-Busch owned Cardinals is epic stuff. #STLCards

When I got to Chicago in the summer of 1985, Mike Ditka and the Chicago Bears were king. Coach Ditka set the tone for a team that was punishing, dominant, and fun — and the city loved him for it. I'm thinking of the Ditka family and Bears fans everywhere on the passing of a legend.

This is so good. As a former small-town sports editor, what we did *mattered*. Saturday morning meant a game story - with quotes & reaction - and full boxscores from every game. Previews on Thursdays. Features, coverage of all sports. You knew what was going on in the area.

High school sports participation is at an all-time high. Local sports journalism staffs are shrinking. A look at the changing business of high school sports media — and what gets lost when local coverage disappears.

Jim Ukrop didn't just build businesses. He helped build Richmond. And even at the end, he was thanking Richmond, writes Gregory J. Gilligan.

Before calling someone a “dirtbag,” the Senator should have had his facts straight. An apology is in order.    Glad one of us knew the difference between the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes!

The Ukrop name is still synonymous in Richmond with character and business integrity. Blessings to the entire Ukrop family as you say goodbye to a respected man.

Jim Ukrop leaves behind a large legacy of civic leadership and business acumen, and I know he will be profoundly missed by many in Richmond and across Virginia. He was a steadfast believer in investing in community and public education, and worked for many years on revitalizing Richmond. I join so many Virginians in sending thoughts to his family, friends, and the extensive community he leaves behind.

I am saddened to hear of Jim Ukrop’s passing. As a businessman, philanthropist and civic leader, there was no bigger booster for the City of Richmond. Jim’s passion for closing the racial divides in the former Capital of the Confederacy knew no limits. A self-described “dot connector,” he loved identifying young talent and connecting them to people who could help them reach their full potential. I am honored to be one of the dots he helped connect over the years, and to have called him a friend. Godspeed, Jim.
