what an unbelievably stupid time to be alive

Every single wound that MLB has endured since 1901 has been self-inflicted.

two parts mayonnaise one part ketchup some Worcestershire sauce some garlic powder layer of black pepper every finger place sauce is basically this, and it’s the only thing that makes Cane’s decent because they don’t season their chicken

i can’t talk about sports gambling anymore without sounding like a crank but i do believe legalized sports gambling is like 15-20% responsible for our current dystopia

The Edmund Fitzgerald sank 50 years ago today. The next year, the singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot chronicled the tragedy in an unlikely hit single. Read about how ↓

Hmmm. I wonder why there seem to be so many gambling scandals involving athletes. Here’s an article from a media outlet with a relationship with MGM Bet

David Letterman bringing out Warren Zevon’s guitar from his final Late Show performance to be played at his induction. I’m not crying. 😭 #rockhall

Taking a college football break to watch the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, and the are starting strong with a Sly Stone tribute featuring Stevie Wonder, Flea and more! #RRHOF25

Wow. Neither team deserved to lose. Congrats to the Dodgers.

Oh.

Fitting that we get a Stanley Cup Game 7 OT atmosphere in a Canadian World Series.

The DEFENSE in this World Series has been next level. #WorldSeries

It would be so fitting for all the drama…

What if we have #WorldSeries shrimp? Has a walkoff walk ever happened in the World Series?? @jaysonst.bsky.social

Ball don’t lie. #WorldSeries

Gambling Is Killing Sports and Consuming America www.nytimes.com/2025/10/28/o...

We have the best two words in sports tomorrow: Game 7 #WorldSeries

Friendly reminder that Republicans are garbage, entirely devoid of empathy, compassion, or honor. They are terrified little babies who are filled with hate, scared to death of anything they don't understand. And they don't understand most things, because they are also deeply incurious.

Google just made sure that Gen-X will be completely unproductive today. #PacMan #GoogleDoodle

Random #WorldSeries thing that only I (and maybe @jaysonst.bsky.social) may find interesting: Graig Nettles made his MLB debut in 1967. In his final season, he was a teammate of Randy Johnson on the Expos, who was a teammate of Max Scherzer at the Diamondbacks, who is active with Toronto tonight.

THIS GAME!!!

Having flashbacks to the Inge HBP that wasn’t called in Game 163 in 2009…..

Ok, Seattle. There is only one Señor Smoke and it’s this guy:

How’s this for an omen: Hal Newhouser and Mickey Lolich are the only two Tigers leftys to win a "winner-take-all" postseason game. BOTH did it on October 10th. Skubal would become the third if the Tigers win. #mlbpostseason @jaysonst.bsky.social

An unintended consequence of the death of cursive writing is the fact that there are dedicated people on the internet that have to decode signatures because people can’t read them. If I were a celebrity I’d make sure to sign every letter of my name legibly so future generations would know.

Wonder if Progressive or GEICO is pleased with this setup. #mlb #SportsBiz

I had a whole story ready to publish about this convention center vote, but Yaroslavsky's speech — one of the most powerful I’ve ever seen on the council floor — said it better than I ever could. It's a must-read, and I also included a link to the video

At this point it's not that he doesn't get the fact that we're in an existential battle for the survival of American democracy. It's that he doesn't give a shit. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Did anyone else catch the “flag” thrown on the field in the Cincy game? We are living in the stupidest timeline.

I miss the days when every other ad during football wasn't a gambling ad. I hate it so much.

We are in the stupidest timeline.

Has anyone invented an app that blocks all gambling/betting ads? It’s so damn hard to just watch a football game. I’d almost prefer prescription drug ads.

This is the sort of thing the Internet is supposed to be used for. bsky.app/profile/davi...

If you're still on substack, you are letting techbro dildos use your left-leaning journalism to launder right-wing extremism and it's just a terrible idea. You should stop doing that

The NFL having an ownership stake in the leading sports journalism outlet isn't alarming at all

I took a group of 40 people to this game. We paid for $50 worth of concessions 6 months ago. We are not crossing the picket line. We confirmed with the striking workers that the team store is not staffed by them, so we brought in food and will be spending our credits there without scabbing. ✊✊✊

The band is currently on tour in the United Kingdom.

I wonder why….🤔 It’s almost like gambling is being incessantly pushed by leagues, teams and media companies. Too bad the text in locker rooms warning players about gambling isn’t in a font as big as the signs on the Jumbotron, outfield walls, suite levels and highlight clips….

It’s time to give up on the A’s to Las Vegas plan. Sell the team and send them somewhere that wants baseball.

When are we getting a vinyl release of The Bear soundtrack? @thebearfx.bsky.social #TheBear

Happy that we're getting a new album from Ivy. Even happier that Adam Schlesinger will live on with each of the tracks.

Nevada can back out of the A's project if no work is done in a 180-day span, so expect at least some activity to keep that clock running. Otherwise, Fisher can keep slow-walking this if he wants to — or needs to, if he really doesn't have the cash himself.
