My favorite gift this holiday season was getting a notice from my old employer (which laid me off) that they accidentally overpaid me and I now need to pay them back. A Christmas miracle!

At a Christmas bar and drinking out of a Krampus mug

The Chris Archer trade tree keeps growing!

Incredibly happy to report that Converge has still got it! youtu.be/c-6OT-lNtBE?...

A Bears win, along with Packers/Lions losses and I’m having steak tonight? Turning out to be a good Sunday

I just know if he continues to be good, national broadcasters will only refer to him as “former Red Sox prospect”. Red Sox always have to be the center of attention

Seth Rollins voice: I HATE football

My thoughts on the whole Tarantino dissing Paul Dano thing is, that’s pretty rich coming from Tarantino, who cast Eli Roth in prominent roles in two of his movies

What a year!

“A man becomes preeminent, he's expected to have enthusiasms. Enthusiasms. Enthusiasms. What are mine? What draws my admiration? What is that which gives me joy? … Baseball!”

That’s MY head coach

Cannot get enough of this Philadelphia crowd booing the Eagles and the cuts to devastated fans

Just caught up with Predator: Badlands, pretty decent! Richard Lawson’s review of it is one of the better, funnier things I’ve read this year www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

Perhaps one of cinema's greatest performances youtu.be/jQ7RB3fQAA0?...

Get that bag!

Passan reporting Marcus Semien is getting traded to the Mets and wanted to check out his contract and Spotrac is on the beat!

8-3 Bears?!? I’m booking my ticket to the Super Bowl right now!

I’m ready!

Heard great things about this but I don’t know if I have the mental toughness to watch this movie

The Angels have overpaid with the White Sox before. Could they overpay again for Luis Robert?

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

The Broken Arrow review is incredible. Siskel gives it a begrudgingly thumbs up and then changes his mind after Ebert lays out some criticisms. And it ends with Siskel asking Ebert to change his original thumbs up of Cop and a Half, which he doesn’t do youtu.be/pumI6S3vPII?...

A 7-3 Bears team?! Super Bowl, here we come!

Darren Aronofsky, in his best sneakers, filming the pope like he’s worried about getting in trouble

The Netflix show “The Beast in Me” uses the UK Surf version of the Pixies “Wave of Mutilation” to great effect. But the greatest use of that needle drop has already been done youtu.be/9A82ciNC7jk?...

Absolute lunatic behavior if you bet on balls/strikes and pitch speed

The Bears and Bulls now have the same record, 6-3. Nowhere to go but up from here, baby!

I miss baseball

Read the synopsis for the new James Gray film and I am locked in! deadline.com/2025/05/scar...

Oh hell yeah! variety.com/2025/film/ne...

NOTHING is back. It’s a good day youtu.be/JdtWI-QapFM?...

Watched the condensed version of game seven, cause I’m a sicko, and man, my heart just goes out to Blue Jays fans. Everything was falling into place and the crowd was hyped till the very end. We’ll see what happens next year

Me when I saw Yesavage warming up on TV: “No fucking way!!!”

Baseball…it’s pretty great

I’d like to see the Blue Jays win, but Dodgers winning the World Series would also be cool. But incredibly thankful these two teams gave us a banger of a series and blessed us with a game seven

Made blood orange mezcal margs for Halloween
