Kudos to Rich Eisen for getting that "Harrison Butker... interestingly enough wide right" joke off in the last possible week he could have made that joke. If anyone did that during an NFL broadcast now, a trapdoor would immediately swallow them and we'd never see them again.

Go Reds 🤪

Harrison Butker, the back-to-the-kitchen, women! Chiefs kicker developing a version of the yips where he keeps missing chipshot kicks far to the right, is one of the funnier developments of this year. Six mandatory workplace DEI workshops will fix this.

that's why I log on every day

Contrast this with the pic of the man in a suit at the memorial “bearing” that cross on wheels. There’s a lot more Jesus in this picture than in any giant cross.

Last time the Reds had two 1-0 wins in the same series was Sept, 2002 at the Cubs. Last time the Reds had two 1-0 wins in the same series at home was Sept, 1943 vs the Pirates.

The #BlueJays have officially clinched their spot in the postseason with an 8-5 win over the Royals. Now, it’s all about the American League East and the bye to the ALDS.

Praise be to the Baseball gods for granting me this 4 game series of good vibes. #ATOBTTR

A handy cheat sheet

Even if the Reds get to the postseason, I won’t survive this bullpen without either more bourbon or more meds

The Mets were 21 games over .500 in June. Is it possible they could now miss the playoffs? They've already lost today. The Reds are winning. If the Reds hang on, those teams would be tied but the Reds hold the tiebreaker So... Yep , the Reds would be the last wild card if the season ended today

Big Jacob Young fan from way back* *about an hour ago Mets lose

Jacob Young, Hacky Sack Catch

finished my chores for the day. time to grapple with the crushing weight of existence

How the rapture has upended the pennant races: My column

Reese McGuire jerked another one off the netting in the bullpen

Feckless, weak, impotent. They don’t have the stomach to meet this moment. All the establishment dems can piss off

Who’s buying hamburger at $8 lb?

Take care of your back. Stretch, walk, get up from the desk.

Sunscreen every day. Don’t forget your hands, neck, and chest. Moisturize! You’ll be so thankful when you hit 50.

THREAD!!!

The Reds are *hitting* 🤷‍♀️

I hope some newspapers use a crop where you can easily read the sign.

“I'm down for it" means "I'm up for it.” Sure, why not.

Hunter Greene’s 101.3 mph strikeout in the ninth was the second-fastest strikeout pitch by a starter in the ninth inning or later under pitch tracking (2008), behind only Tarik Skubal’s 102.6 mph on 5/25/25 (which is the fastest SP K in span)

Hunter Greene just AVERAGED 100.4 MPH with his 9 ninth-inning fastballs to polish off a complete game shutout for a 1-0 win and to keep Cincinnati's playoff hopes alive. An absolutely incredible performance! 🔥⛽️🔥

i wish i loved anything as much as sports wanting me to bet on sports

9-inning complete game shutout with 1 or fewer hits allowed at GABP by a Reds pitcher TONIGHT - Hunter Greene 7/3/2012 - Home Bailey (no-hitter)

Hunter Greene, man #ATOBTTR

Where @viewfrommyoffic.bsky.social is mentally. Same.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Don’t tell people not to joke about serious shit. It’s a coping mechanism for some of us. It’s how we aren’t constantly screaming.

I also shared a dorm pod with a former Miss Kentucky and hoo boy I remain thankful every day that I went to college pre phone cameras

Since everyone is bringing up the Man Show, I went to college with a cousin of the bouncy Costello twins

*rubs temples* today I have agreed with John Yoo, Karl Rove, and Tucker Carlson. We are in the bad place

it is no coincidence that the worst fuckin people u know are utterly incurious, proudly anti-science, and completely lacking any sense of humor

Cowardice all around

I think this is the best they’ve all ever looked, honestly

just eat the bay leaf. nothing matters.

Capitulating to bad-faith people who are acting in bad faith is cowardice. It is also never, ever, ever, ever, ever a good idea.

Our despicable and deplorable timeline will continue until cowards cower no more.

Because all they care about is money. It is very hard to be alive right now as a person who cares more about other things like love and friendship and family and community.

so many dead canaries and we just keep on mining

Grim shit everywhere, man.

I just can’t believe that Trump keeps doing all the stuff that he said he would do.

I believe this to my core. They're using trans people as a test case to dismantle individual rights in the US.

Friedl gets a day off. "His legs could use it," says his manager. Elly has been dealing with leg issues all year and hasn't been given a day off once. This will frustrate me forever.

This happy pig is on his way out to the paddock this morning to do some grazing. Walter has come a long way since he just showed up in a Vermonter's back yard with no explanation. Have a good day, buddy! You are safe.
