RUN THE BALL

Dude just hit a halfcourt shot to win $10k in cryptocurrency. I still don't understand what that actually means.

Superb work from @ericdharvey.com on Legend, detailing how the 1984 compilation shaped public perception of Bob Marley and tracing its deep influence. Legend is one of the most consequential greatest hits comps in pop history and this is the review it deserves.

do you guys want deshaun watson back

Fare thee well Bobby…

(Going to see a band I like) this is a cool room. I hope they start to constantly email me about every single event that goes on in here.

I personally have not seen this before

kristenkurtis.bsky.social Thanks for the mention of my lone vote for Frank Turner's "Thunder Road" on the #XPNCountdown. As a veteran of countless countdowns and A-to-Zs, that one may have been a little tongue-in-cheek. :)

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

Can somebody count Jared McCain’s fingers?

Spending my anniversary noting whether the songs they’re playing at the Sixers - Raptors game are period appropriate for the 2001 throwback theme. My wife truly hit the jackpot.

Posting again as a public service (and because I can't freakin' remember either):

Macarena teases from Trey

@cmolanphy.bsky.social Was that the first time Phish has been played on #HitParadePod? Warming up for a jam band episode I hope?

@augetoffmygold.bsky.social Thanks for the shout out on the Ricky. (Fair answer on the Phil Collins question too). Btw - this Jazz game is easily the best game of the season.

Putting 2026 NBA Finals MVP Lonnie Walker IV out there to get ahead of the curve.

A disaster of a start for the Sixers in this second quarter, who have outscored the Jazz 24-10 to take a 51-42 lead with 5 minutes left before the break. Jeff Dowtin (10) and Jared Butler (9) have given them lifts off the bench.

friends, here's a link to the job posting. come work with us. Strong preference for someone Virginia barred. I'm the first to say that the pay is not incredible because we give away a lot of our time on pro bono and longshot cases, but the work is cool as hell. www.ziprecruiter.com/jobs/the-erl...

If you need something else to listen to tonight, might I suggest this new oral history recording with Mr. Baseball himself from the County Stadium grandstand.

If you're a baseball fan and like going to ballparks, I'm doing a podcast with my friend Alex called Take Me Out. Ballpark news, guides and trip tips, lots of just talking about baseball stuff. This week, we came up with a bunch of 2025 trip ideas! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Other ways to celebrate: (1) listen to No Jacket Required at a volume that gets the police called; (2) get a divorce.

Wishing @augetoffmygold.bsky.social a very Happy Phil Collins Day. (And the Sixers can’t even ruin this one for you with a loss.)

@cmolanphy.bsky.social Check out the new project from your friends at the Hall of Songs podcast (still on the old feed for now). Perfect for chart nerds - we’re going deep into songs that peaked at No. 41 on the Hot 100. You have any favorites? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

I have a new podcast! All about ballparks and the experience of going to baseball games. Called Take Me Out. Travel tips, ballpark guides and reviews, news about parks, and stories from our travels. I would LOVE it if you would listen and subscribe! And share! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

My advice to people here who are in distress over today + the next 4 years: Turn the TV off and go do something. I don’t mean run for office. Help people who need it in your community. Harness the energy and make a difference. Focus on what you can actually do, not on dread. You’ll be better for it

For like half of this season, the most common take was "every team is kinda bad, except Oregon." They were the only thing everybody agreed on. Now all we can agree on is that Michigan had a great time

The three spirits

Not saying they’re the best performances ever (from an Oscar standpoint, etc.) but nobody has ever given it all when they didn’t have to more than Michael Caine (Muppet Christmas Carol) and Justin Long (Dodgeball).

I count myself absurdly lucky that I got to meet mine for a few minutes.

“You will be visited by three spirits.” The three spirits:

There’s a chapter in Fever Pitch about how the best wins happen when you have to beat the refs in addition to the other team. Anyway…

More impressed with Timothée Chalamet's versatility every day.

I wasn't ready for the #XPNCountdown to be over. So I wrote a column about it.

Bonus, this is the hardest entrance I have ever seen, the pan to the full field shot and the flag is a Dune battle scene

Seconded. Thank you all!
