Bartolo Colon should replace Tony Clark

Tony Clark, in all likelihood, torpedoed the MLBPA's chances during the next CBA negotiations and all but ensured a 2027 lockout because he just couldn't not sleep with his sister-in-law.

Oh...dude...

i think a campaign geared toward what people online were arguing about in 2022 is probably not going to work out

This is pure unadulterated dooming fantasy. From a manpower and tactical perspective this just cannot meaningfully impact congressional races. Maybe maybe maybe you pick one senate seat and swing it half a point if you absolutely nail it. Plenty of chances for fuckery but this is basically nonsense

Why did the Rangers call up Brendan Brisson and Brett Berard today?

This is the worst thing happening in baseball. It is happening all the time and nearly every team is doing it. And a lot of prospect media is complicit.

The answer, as to much in life, is money.

whatever happened here is catastrophic. the league was already going to go for the PA's throat in CBA negotiations this winter and now the longtime head of the union is ousted during spring training in a scandal. huge win for the commissioner. www.nytimes.com/athletic/705...

At long last, some reporting on the hitherto unreported lives of the Tkachuks

Believe me, I realize there's a lot of other stuff going on in the world, but Netflix persisting in promoting fights involving people who have absolutely no business being medically cleared for fights is still gross. www.theguardian.com/sport/2024/m...

Finally: The perfect shirt to wear to World Cup matches at New York New Jersey Stadium this summer

Oh...shit...

Fetterman proudly declared he would vote for restrictions on financial aid to Americans but would never vote for restrictions on financial aid to Israel. He did this on Fox News. he is purportedly a Democrat

This is how you live a life

The example here is a good one (with real stakes) but the same is true about mundane stuff too. Maybe (I guess) 10-20% of my customers have come from people who have read arguments that I've had with other people. The arguers themselves, not so much.

The president of the united states? Receiving oral sex in the white house? Outrageous. Surely this will dominate news coverage for the remainder of his term

normally in japan they have to blur this kinda stuff out

Was thinking last night how someone who turned 18 in 2013 is now 31, and has never voted for a president who has a sense of humor that doesn't involve cruelty, isn't senile and can just be like normal for a minute. it's no surprise we have a generation that is idiotmaxxing, to use their vernacular

This is a nice move in an interview www.nytimes.com/2026/02/16/u...

It is too wintry for the Winter Olympics right now

also, how about IIHF, literally the organization in charge of hockey, saying that 2-time World Champion Abbey Murphy is playing so well she should be compared to the zero-time World Champion Tkachuk brothers

Uh...what the hell is going on with the Wolf Pack?

AOC’s biggest problem if she runs for president is that the white men who control our media ecosystem will not so much put a finger on the scale to stop her as an entire hand it can be done (see: Zohran) but it’s going to be blatant and it’s going to be infuriating

This wouldn't be a bad idea for a team that is gonna be stripped bare in a few weeks. Pick him up cheap, let him pick up some points, and everyone goes about their business

RIP Robert Duvall. I hope you and Jimmy Caan are mooning Marlon Brando, wherever you are now. www.nytimes.com/2014/10/05/m...

HOLY FUCKING SHIT THERE IS HOCKEY HAPPENING. THE SEMIFINALS! WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?

The U.S. playing Edwards on the blue line is so funny because teams get hemmed in by the American forwards then ho hum here comes Laila walking into the slot with nobody around her and the goalie completely screened

This team is just inevitable. Laila Edwards remains goddamn awesome.

This Brady Tkachuk interview is so disrespectful to the women on the ice and the audience in general.

As much as I miss NBC's NHL production, these Olympics are reminding me why what I mostly miss is having a PxP voice that actually cares about their job (Doc Emerick). Both tournaments treat their audiences like children and/or don't care about doing actual in-game analysis.

Listening to Kenny Albert for both the Men's and Women's tournaments makes me really miss Doc Emerick. This also applies to listening to Kenny Albert during Rangers games making me miss Sam Rosen. In summary, Kenny Albert is a nepo baby is not good at his job.

The Tkachuks did a TikTok with Elmo for Sesame Street, and the entire comment section was people telling Elmo to run as fast and as far away from them as possible.

Laila Edwards is so good and so much fun to watch.

US hockey tweet but can be applied to most things in life

In other news, the women are quietly cooler and better than the men

This has felt like a 6 minute power play for the US.

The US blue vs the Swedish Yellow is such a great jersey match up

Not a bad morning to watch the best US hockey team at these Olympics.

An open world with nothing to do. Just let me play through a story and stop being lazy.

Off to the side doesn’t do this justice. He crossed the remainder of their run, crawled under a fence, crossed an adjacent mogul run, and then collapsed.

This seems to be a recurring occurrence lately.

Vermont-born Norwegian skier Atle Lie McGrath heads into the final run of the slalom with a massive half-second lead, but misses one of the first gates, hurls his poles as far as he can, and lies down off to the side of the course

NHL Trade Deadline Primer: I think one of the biggest flaws of the Chris Drury era for NYR is everything has seemed more reactive than thought out. No plan. Just vibes. That won't work with a re-tool/rebuild. So why should the Rangers trust him to oversee this? adamgretz.substack.com/p/nhl-trade-...

The Winter Olympics are the goddamn BEST

Apparently the new model tells them to touch grass and they are not digging it

I can confirm

Biden was the most economically progressive president since LBJ at least, he pursued a full-employment economy at huge political risk, it worked spectacularly. And what happened is that the entire progressive universe decided that he must not have done any of it, or else he would have been popular

Shut. The fuck. Up. About 1980. For the love of fucking God.

He doesn't have the points but this should be Matt Boldy's coming out party to a national audience. He's awesome.
