We're about one inning away from Bill Clement looping his necktie around his head. #Tigers #Mariners

Wish the #NFL would take better advantage of its international game telecasts to add just a bit of local color as a mini-travelogue.

I admire Pat Murphy's leadership, but he's got to take charge and lift Contreras right away, not a few batters later. #Brewers

This #Brewers game was so lost, I bailed for an inning - so glad I rejoined for the full comeback! Congrats to the Crew on a well-earned W!

I was so wrong about the #Brewers earlier this season - had them pegged as a .500 team. What a treat this summer has been.

Brandon Woodruff goes out to the mound directly, with purpose, like a football lineman to the line of scrimmage. #Brewers

I just read the word "yeets" in an online episode recap, as in "she notices the arm in the freezer and yeets out of there," and ten minutes later I still have the recurring giggles.

Just read that Wisconsin high school athletes can now benefit, at least in a limited way, from NIL contracts. Too bad my eligibility has quite recently expired.

Finished Ted Lasso's three seasons to date. Great fun. Glad the show is being extended, but hard to see S4 reaching the same high notes after S3's clean wrap-up. Maybe it'll be a fan service season with familiar faces, a la "After-M*A*S*H".

freddy paying tribute to uecker during the stand up to cancer moment. brewers legend.

Love that #MLB all-stars are back to using their own teams uniforms. How I always remembered it; how it's supposed to be.

B.A. and Vinny have done such a good job of describing the team's mentality going into the All-Star break that it feels like I have a few days off. #Brewers

So I had on the Wimbledon men's doubles match for a while, and eventually I noticed that the two guys beat the two other guys, and that was that. #rabidsportsfan

Wondering who is the "David!" near the end of the FanDuel Sports Network Wisconsin filler loop between innings of #Brewers games - the producer's kid?

I hear the #Brewers are giving away a free baseball game if you buy a cribbage board.

Just watched a YouTube reactor's commentary on Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Hadn't seen it in decades. Also hadn't recalled the melodrama, peril, and sheer terror of the child abduction scene - yikes. The motto of the road trip to Devils Tower: leave no shock absorber untested.

What a thrilling, wild Game 7 finish - congrats to the Winnipeg Jets! I miss talking or texting with my dad like we would after an incredible game like that.

Well into my sixth decade of following baseball, I only came across the term Isolated Power (ISO) today.

#Brewers playing well tonight at No Guarantees Field.

The word that looks and sounds strange to me today is Tuesday. Thank you for your attention.

This Milwaukee vs. NY Yankees game is apparently the #Brewers' tribute to Bob Uecker's playing career.

Go #Badgers! Beat Ohio State!

The following is my Top-100,000,000 list of favorite #books: all trade paperbacks with good quality paper, a matte cover, and a perfect binding. That's it. That's the list. Publishers and booksellers, my Federal Reserve Notes are at your disposal.

The large print giveth; the small print taketh away. - Tom Waits, "Step Right Up" (A recently experienced truism.)

Just read the NHL Tie-Breaking procedures for determining playoff positions. Dozens of criteria. Then, if hockey results don't decide it, they move on to Figure Skating, Rod Hockey, Home Run Derby, Slam Dunk Contest, Flag Football, Gymnastics, Synchronized Swimming, One-Day Iditarod, and Iron Chef.

I see the Kroger CEO was ousted for improprieties. Guess he was too busy dillydallying around to make sure that the new 2L soda bottles with the oddly rounded bottoms [insert joke here] wouldn't tip over in the cupboard or the fridge.

Not good to see Ashby walk off in the middle of a batter. To my eye, his motion looked pretty stiff in the prior inning. #Brewers

My goodness, just came across a table hockey match on "ESPN 8"! As a kid, I set the neighborhood record for games played without developing an ounce of ability.

Three assists for Crosby - not a hat trick, exactly, but surely worth an excellent pair of wool socks?

Now that all that gridiron silliness is done with, it's back to classic Mission: Impossible TV episodes and onto Four Nations hockey for this polymath.

Many are flailing in response to the power grab, but our Rep sounds more on point than most.

shame on @cbs58.bsky.social for firing Sam Kuffel for naming Elon Musk’s Nazi salute shame on Dan O’Donnell for mobilizing trolls to harass her & call for her job this dark chapter of our country’s history will eventually be over and we’ll all remember who showed integrity & who didn’t

Spent the last hour following the Inauguration watching Bob Uecker tributes and video clips. Here's hoping they have four years worth of them on YouTube.

Preparing to unfurl the Milwaukee #Brewers flag on a snowy January day in tribute to baseball lifer Bob Uecker. RIP

The #MLB minimum salary in 2025 will be $760,000. Do you suppose I could make "The Show" as an injured reliever?

My latest Saturday night guilty pleasure is bingeing old "Mission: Impossible" TV episodes. Shout-out to the cheesy signage props with fake foreign language markings (e.g., "Njo Fier! Gäz!"). This skeet will self-destruct in five seconds.

Rex Parker absolutely killing it with today's NYT puzzle report! (Scroll past the fundraising spiel.). #orale 😆 rexwordpuzzle.blogspot.com/2025/01/papa...

Today is the baseball solstice, halfway between the last out of the World Series and the first pitch of the first Spring Training game

I like how this ref sounds peeved and disappointed in the players when he calls a penalty. Gym teacher energy.

Noticing lately that I'm as likely to tune in to an #NHL game based on the quality of the announcers as any other factor. Which is to say, I still miss Doc Emrick on the call.

I've enjoyed Steve Levy's #hockey announcing for a long time, but mannnnnnn is he in the tank for the Rangers tonight. That, plus his take on the Penguins' Letang and Karlsson being a couple years out of date, suggests that he knows quite a bit more about one team than the other.

I call this one "Moon Over Milwaukee."

Not exactly an early adopter, but I was #963,209!

I just caught myself rooting for one of the racing sausages at the #Brewers game.WTF?

We were promised flying cars by now. Instead we got musical pharmaceutical ads.

Enjoyed this Lori Nickel column on JSOnline about coming back to #MLB after decades away and coming to terms (or not) with the new stats era. Like Rip Van Winkel, but sports. Looking forward to Parts II, III, IV! www.jsonline.com/story/sports...

Everyone's overlooking the obvious solution. #VoteforPedro

*Reading about* woodworking.

One of the unheralded benefits of the pitch clock is shorter in-game interviews with celebrities.

You would think Celebrity Jeopardy would be more entertaining than the original version.
