Rooting for the Jays, but I’m a sucker for Louisville connections, and that’s super cool for KCD grad Will Smith.

I know hitting is hard and all that, but I’ll still never understand a hitter watching a middle middle fastball, especially with a pitcher behind in the count

Sherzer’s got that strut going tonight

News to me that a ball that gets by the fielder is a base hit. Who knew?

Pizza night. Pretty pleased with these. Lowered the hydration level just a bit and ended up with a nicely crisp crust. Next step is to plan ahead and do a multi-day proof in the fridge instead of same-day room temp proof.

Watched Taxi Driver for the first time tonight. I was with it right up until the last 5 minutes. Really not sure what I think about the ending. I liked it overall and it’s a good movie, but that ending gave me a bit of whiplash

A+ viewing experience for Blue Jays fans. Watch your team smash the Dodgers in your first WS in 32 years and marvel and at an Ohtani moonshot guilt free

I know it’s the Dodgers, but I love when other professional athletes become fans watching one of their own do incredible things

There’s a Hold Steady song that comes up on my random running mix and every time I think it’s Coyote Shivers from Empire Records for a split second

My absolute favorite overly indulgent, completely unnecessary leftover meal is crab cakes eggs Benedict. Hollandaise sauce courtesy of @jonbois.bsky.social and SBNation I don’t know how many years ago

Big day today

I spy a block K here…

Had a woman at our park today get mad at the baseball team practicing because their throws rolled towards her family a few times and claimed “I’m on the board!” Not sure what that has to do with anything, but all I could picture was Will Ferrell yelling “I drive a Dodge Stratus!” Same energy

Just adding another tally on the board for One Battle After Another. That movie rips

I’m so mad at myself for falling for false fall. Rookie mistake

I’ll be feeling OK as long as the chiefs are 3-3 with rice coming back in week 7. I was hoping they’d get one or the first two, though. We’ll see!

I need to know the surrender index on that punt for the chiefs right now. How do you expect to win down 10 without the ball and under 7 to play?

Don’t mind going for it but did not like the play at all

That’s my QB!

It’s just one little note, but every time the bass comes in at the 1:20 mark of Bush’s “Glycerine”, I get a big smile on my face

I sometimes wish I were this funny. It’s so simple, but so clever

My goodness, Lamar

Bear has grown a bit these 10 months

Rough week for kickers

Prime example of why you pick the extra point until you HAVE to go for 2

That’s my QB

Turned on the pregame and Mr Beast came on my TV. No thanks

It’s later than I would have expected, but we’ve reached peak tomato time at the McGee household (I also think our cherry and heirloom plants cross-pollinated into mostly hybrid golf ball sized tomatoes)

Medvedev looking like a dude who has had a DAY as a substitute teacher to 7th graders

Pizza night

Most of these opinions are fine. But also Radiohead is overrated

Our local Indian restaurant uses solid, durable takeout containers and every time we get some it takes everything in me to not keep them because, like, it’s a really nice container!

Watched The Royal Tenenbaums for the first time since high school, before I “got” Wes Anderson, and now I’m mad I waited almost 25 years to try it again. What a beautiful movie

Everyone talks about William Gay being offsides against Rutgers, but if Michael Bush doesn’t break his leg against UK that season, UofL steamrolls to the title and who knows what that does for Petrino, conference realignment, etc.

More teams should go with the cream uniforms and script lettering like the Twins have. Such a classic baseball look. I keep trying to get Earlham to add this to our options

People who regularly run in the south are built different

Just watched Jaws for the first time on our beach vacation, as one is wont to do. It was fine

Bring back the slow-paced HR Derby with players looking like kids watching dudes hit absolute video game bombs

When @jasonkirk.fyi and @athensgrease.bsky.social join forces

Bruce is great, but playing baseball with Glory Days on every pregame playlist makes my ears want to bleed I had a friend who was a big baseball player Back in high school He could throw that speedball by you Make you look like a fool, boy “Fast” is right there! Same # of syllables (one)!

Nothing like getting hit with the realization how old you are when you complain that the community fireworks aren’t until 10 tonight

First 4-mile treadmill run a long while. Slowly making progress

Timeline cleanse of my sleeping puppy sleeping in her cone post-spaying. Poor girl feels better and doesn’t understand why she can’t run and jump around with her big sister in the yard

Big time game from Anderson in his last game. What a way to go out

What an absolute gem by Gage Wood in an elimination game. 19K no-hitter

Can’t help but think about the woman at my son’s soccer game who was loudly talking about how excited she was for the military parade after it was announced. Wonder how she was last night after seeing how lame everything was

Watching the Infinity Saga with my son for the first time, up to Iron Man 3 so far, and out of everything, the idea that no one knows where Tony Stark lives is so absurd to me

Oregon State starting a freshman on the mound in the CWS opener is pretty impressive

Kentucky, a baseball state, apparently
