Anthony Rendon retiring

Anthony Rendon retiring would be devastating for baseball accounts on social media that exist solely to farm engagement. Possible recession indicator, tbh

If I had a nickel for every time a key member of the 2019 World Series winning Washington Nationals had the contract he signed the following offseason get bought out I'd have two nickles. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

Wow Alden Gonzalez confirms the recent Anthony Rendon rumors

Oh no

Could you imagine playing in the World Cup and your team is designated to the Stillwater, Oklahoma, Holiday Inn as opposed to a resort in Cancun?

This would be an impressive hire for Colorado State as they head into the New Adventures of the Pac-12:

Every winter I begin my annual hunt for clues that the Angels may be rebranding or making their 70s/80s throwbacks permanent. The Quakes have given me a lot to work with

The Quakes’ new color scheme, uniforms and logos all look pretty damn good. Photos via the Quakes on X.

“It’s because we’ve put all of our best minds towards trying to win debate contests in sports. And the actual thing of discovering new information, it’s just not incentivized anymore.” I will say I’ve been happy to see fans cheering NBC/Prime for doing more Xs & Os stuff (as well as Inside the NFL)

man this is so true. and i would expand it past discovering new information and also put receiving as well. almost everything has become low brow content that solely exists to make people feel good rather than push conversations forward. just look at how we've started "analyzing" quarterbacks.

I’m starting to think that people post like this because they’ve alienated all their irl friends by talking like they do on here and can’t figure out why it keeps happening

they're adding a fifth loko

I don’t understand why Weiss thinks the desired outcome of CBS News coverage is debate.

DC Mayor Muriel Bowser announces she will not seek a fourth term

look at that dash

My “big board” for Angels 3B targets, in order: Kazuma Okamoto Ronny Mauricio (trade) Sung-moon Song Nolan Arenado Alec Bohm (trade) Ramón Urías

Scott Van Pelt looks like he's turning into Adam Silver

I’m putting together a team

“At times, it was unclear what the defense was trying to argue.” Starting to wonder how many other firms the Angels contacted before they found one willing to go to trial…

here's a stupid idea i might actually attempt. which lasts longer: a football game broadcast in LA or traveling to all the places featured in the LA football game b-roll?

the last 24 hours on X, summed up:

MLB is so back they're doing random 1-1 vet trades during NFL games

when you post an anti-analytics sports take

My guess at the top 4 seeds in the FCS Playoffs 1. NDSU 2. MSU 3. Montana 4. Lehigh I’m gonna be pretty peeved if the committee gives Lehigh No. 3. Bison, Cats and Griz are clearly in a tier above the rest of the FCS.

There is a very high chance there’s another Brawl game in the FCS Playoffs this year

TUNE INTO CAT/GRIZ RIGHT NOW 31-28 WITH 7:00 TO GO

South Dakota State is about to lose its fifth game in a row (after starting 7-0) and miss the FCS playoffs. Amazing falloff, arguably more of a shock than anything that happened at Penn State or Clemson this year

IT’S BRAWL DAY BABY

feels like this part is gonna get lost in people jumping to make fun of the Angels, which by all means go ahead, but there's tons of other material than "doing what every other team does"

“Say, before we traded our former first round pick with top-of-the-rotation potential and four years of control left, did anyone think to ask him how his arm is feeling?” - Mike Elias, nervously

Yeah, that’s the Denver airport

No one has ever been more of an Angel unfortunately

From @theathletic.com: Marquette King, only the fifth Black punter in NFL history, carved out a distinct persona at a position known for anonymity. That may be why he was gone from the league just six years later. “I’m definitely blackballed.” nyti.ms/4obIxme

Referee knew he had to put some mustard on that call lmao

An exciting new Bluesky feature is that any time you write "checks notes" it sends a 10-volt shock through your keyboard

Excuse to post a classic?

I have to say that as a trans journalist it's really incredible to see someone in mainstream sports media as big as Pablo Torre do a story like this. Huge props.

Now that’s a lede. Story by @taracopp.bsky.social and @michelleboorstein.bsky.social. Read here: www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Ducks double up the lead. Excellent entry by Beckett Sennecke, Mason McTavish picks up his first point in five games by tapping up to Radko Gudas, who blasts around Sennecke's screen. 2-0 Ducks #FlyTogether

Dax Sheppard can spin it

the problem with trying to build a team through a series of individual hyperrational decisions is that you end up with a very efficient very average team
