Dice baseball history! Bob Forsch threw a no-hitter against the Montreal Expos in my 1979 tournament. He walked one and hit two in a 1-0 St. Louis victory in Game 1 of a five-game series. This is my third tournament (1978, 1994) and first no-no. Forsch threw a real no-no against the Expos in 1983.

All of the other NL Central teams are tired of the Brewers winning the division, but you know what? www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2k8...

Just saw this scene for the first time in a long time. Phil Hartman ruled.

You know the big laugh they have at the end of “The Trouble With Tribbles” after they transport the tribbles to the Klingons? They basically condemned the tribbles to death right? Klingons aren’t going to tolerate that. One of the many unintended dark “Star Trek” episode endings.

Heh-heh. A no-lose scenario for Leeds. Lose to Wham and Spurs lose, generational hilarity ensues. Beat or draw Wham, it’s not as funny, but still pretty hilarious to send the Hammers down in their vacuous house.

Love all things Brewers, but even I won’t defend blue jerseys over gray pants. Why? Oh well. I guess I’ll have to take solace in a Monday Cubs beatdown at their joint.

Watched “Ed Wood” for the first time in a while. Forgot how much I loved the final scene with the stylized triumphant premiere for “Plan 9 From Outer Space”. That’s for all of the films - good or bad - under appreciated or ignored in their time, but that gained respect later.

Nearly had my Greg Lansing-in-St. Thomas moment at Fountain Square. Some idiot jumped out of his car to confront a mentally ill man. I got grabbed as a shield by the person, but it never kicked off. Lansing got caught up in a weird melee while leaving the locker room in the V.I.

Leeds is officially on the ...

Bought Joni Mitchell’s “Court And Spark” album today. Just reclining back and letting it wash over me. Very good stuff.

Movies filmed or that took place in Louisville rankings … 5. Sheba, Baby. 4. Return Of The Living Dead (send more cops) 3. Stripes 2. The Insider 1. Kentucky Roses *That* was some seriously funny shit. The blanket of roses was marooned in … South America for some reason? My kind of cheese.

High on Golden Tempo’s Derby win, the better half and I are watching “Kentucky Roses” on Hallmark Channel and this is some hilarious shit. Bonus … the corrupt CIA guy from “Scarface” is in it!

GOLDEN TEMPO! You know I bet on that! My man!

Goodness. Great White. Never seen that happen before. Poor guy.

Not a mint julep, but mint tea at the Marrakesh restaurant. Good luck to all with your Derby wagers!

Checked my IG stats and my most selected players. Lots of Milwaukee players as you’d expect from me, but some weird randoms too. Who knew Len Matuszek buried himself into my subconscious? He’s a good 1B choice for a few teams.

Something, something, Leicester cheated to get its 2024 promotion. Something, something wrong team went up. Oh well. Enjoy League One, Leicester!

Aggravated an old shoulder/arm injury today. Not great.

Leeds does the job it was supposed to do against bottom team Wolves at home. On 39 points, even in a season where the threshold for safety is higher, I feel pretty good we’re staying up. Daniel Farke had done a great job to fulfill the primary mission of the season.

Me earlier today: Anyway, I'll tell you one thing. Leeds United hasn't won a league game at Old Trafford since 1981! Me later: (self-explanatory).

One of the best wins ever considering Leeds injuries, our indifferent form coming in and the survival stakes. Doing it to the bitterest rival makes it 10 times sweeter. Buzzing!

Leeds in a FA Cup semi? Leeds wins at Old Trafford? Sorry, y’all, but the world may just be ending. At least I’ll be smiling!

Holy Brian Flynn! I did not see this coming.

Go on Leeds!

Thrilled for Rory. Class act and an all-time great.

Go on Rory!

Opened up my ice machine to get into the guts and clean it out. I was definitely guilty of crimes against humanity in not doing so earlier.

Dusty May is easy to root for. Oozes class. Good for him.

Thank God Michigan won. The Big Ten title drought was factually true, but was also overblown. Several programs came close in those years. A bounce or two the other way and there is no title drought. That’s how random the game can be.

Chelsea, eh. Gird oneself for the 1970 remembrances. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzif...

Never had a reason to watch the FA Cup semifinal draw before. Pretty informal with only four balls to draw.

Not sure I've ever come away from a Leeds match more conflicted. Through to the FA Cup semis for the first time since I became a Leeds fan, but done in the most farcical possible way. Not deserved at all, but I'll take it? Of course I will, but that was rough. A choke we got away with.

Leeds plumbing new depths of horseshit.

Internet made to work in the new house just in time for me to see Leeds take the lead in its FA Cup quarterfinal.

My second all-time zero on IG. I’d like to thank Max Carey from being from the Haute, a recent reading deep dive into 1930s/1940s baseball, card-and-dice gaming, and as always, the Milwaukee Brewers.

Getting old sucks, part infinity. I am *still* absolutely bone tired from the moving experience. Granted, we’re still moving things around in the new joint, but like clockwork, I have been hitting a wall at about 6 each night. Just put me in a home.

New Caledonia is showing admirable scrap against Jamaica. Out-matched, but unbowed.

Josh Schertz too.

What I like about the Big Ten’s success is these are OG Big Ten schools having it. Long live the Midwest.

What a man. Still my all-time favorite coach any one of my favorite teams has had.

UEFA qualifier logo looks like one of loser emojis from that recent SNL skit.

All Wales Aren’t We?

Good to have baseball back.

Packers at my house to pack us for our move. You know the “Star Trek” episode where the Kelvans turn the Enterprise crew into cubes? That’s the vibe in my house. Worldly possessions cubed … in boxes.

Officially an Indianapolis resident for the first time since 1997. Still have to get cleared out of Bloomington, but glad the longest moving saga of all-time has nearly reached its conclusion.

Can't like this enough.

“Leeds … is never gonna score again.” Going to be a rough final two months of the season. youtu.be/FzQBOBoPg04

Checks in on the IU MBB universe. Wonder what the hot topic is ... oh for crissakes.

NC State should have pressed after it tied the game. Horns were rattled. Let them off the hook.

Claudia Cardinale in the Oscar's In Memoriam segment. One of the best scenes from the best movie ever made. Awesome.
