Heartening to see hundreds of journalists at @IRE_NICAR … lot of folks out there who do good work.

Just me, or does it feel like a bit too much too soon that 16-year-old Charlie Woods is the TOP story on @espn.com headlines for missing the cut to make the US Open. I mean, I know he played, so the score is public record, but top story? There’s nothing else to talk about? He’s a kid. #smh

When my mom got to about 80, she showed real signs of the Alzheimer’s Disease that would take her life. She started doing nutty things with her money — liquidating all her investments, then putting them into one savings account. Like that. Don’t know why I think of that today … but there you are.

Unquestionably a home crowd for the Eagles. #introductions #SuperBowlLIX

Reading about proposed foreign aid cuts and remembering a trip to Cuba in 2015 to cover baseball. We were shuttled all around on Chinese buses. And a thought occurred: If you leave the international field, the countries you leave aren’t high and dry. They just get somebody else’s buses.

Fans, we hope you enjoy the Affleck Orange 🍊 Bowl, sponsored by The Rolling Stones, and remind you to always act in a spirit of good sportsmanship!

Some fun with the Orange Bowl 🍊 … ☘️🦁 eedition.centredaily.com/shortcode/LM...

Jeanty in the first quarter — eight carries, 20 yards.

Did the kid on Boise State running with the American flag just trip and fall down?

Football logic. Oklahoma > Bama Navy > Oklahoma Navy > Bama Can’t believe Navy was excluded from the CFP!!!! 😢

Headed into the fourth quarter of the chippiest, nastiest, closest to an all-out-brawl of bowl season game yet. Of course I mean the GameAbove Sports Bowl.

All of Notre Dame’s last three TDs have been longer than 97 yards.
