After 3 years of work, we finally got this signed into law. And they let me be in the photo. www.noozhawk.com/california-a...

AbsoF’nlutely not.

Cyclocross season in NorCal has officially begun!

Dr. Eric White is a top scholar on the Gutenberg Bible, but in his free time, he's been studying one of baseball’s biggest mysteries – Who are the unnamed artists behind the classic Topps baseball cartoons? thefanfiles.com/articles/topps-baseball-cards-cartoons-comics-cartoonists

My mail from @gritz.bsky.social did not disappoint! And the bonus included a Mark Fidrych sticker that pairs nicely with my wallet!

A belated thank you to @heavyjstudios.bsky.social and @smith6668.bsky.social for the Sunday giveaways hosted by @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social .

I went on a vacation to Europe for 2 weeks, and it took being 5 days back before I saw a cybertruck and I was reminded they existed.

Avoiding thoughts of the Detroit Tigers by watching the A’s/Astros. Maybe at least the A’s can help out by winning today?

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

Researching mental health providers in California specializing in the Detroit Tigers. #DetroitTigers

Getting ready for the race this weekend. Wondering what I’ve gotten myself into. Wine selection is great, beer, not so much.

Guy who was a GM for the Dodgers saying the game is controlled by Satan.

Some more goodies from my folks- I thought I had all the political buttons, but there were more. George Wallace, Goldwater, “Reagan knew, and forgot”, Cleveland and McKinley, and Elvis and Archie Bunker for prez pins. Quaint artifacts from the pre-internet campaigns.

My folks are downsizing so I get boxes of stuff. An envelope had a cardboard menu for a restaurant that I’m pretty sure my grandma was a waitress at. Opened it up to find an Ernie Banks signature, dated 1977. #Cubs #ChicagoCubs

without any scientifc research I can suggest this couple is not bringing luck to the #tigers #RepDETROIT #HelloTigers

Back at it- different beers, different jersey- that of Legendary Sacramento native Matt Manning. #Tigers

Damn Riley crushed that ball! #Tigers

Getting ready for a better night at Tigers/A’s tonight.

Speaking of desecration of the American flag, the EO doesn’t address the real criminals- runners that wear American Flag shorts and defile them with their junk sweat at local 4th of July races.

Headed towards South Lake Tahoe for 2nd triathlon of the weekend. Some thunder and lightning but should pass before the morning. One more week of heavy effort til I dial it back for France. Listening to a good Detroit #Tigers game on the radio.

When the Detroit Tigers come to Sacramento next week to play the Sacramento A’s, it will be during Fernando Valenzuela day at the Capitol. Also maybe a Skubal day?#Tigers

The Legislature has finally unveiled its proposed map of new California congressional lines. Find your district in our searchable map and read how the plan changes the dynamics of 10 key races: calmatters.org/politics/202...

With the new CA maps out, at first glance looks like I’d be moved from Ami Bera’s district to Kevin Kiley’s. Will be interesting.

Got a load of 80s Slurpee coins the other day on my quest to complete all of the regional sets.

“So why do you want to go to West Point?” “I was talking to my AI girlfriend and she was helping me with my homework, and she said I’d be a perfect candidate.” nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...

Status- declining.

New Criminal Minds TV show, but it’s about FBI agents walking around DC predicting who’s going to roll through a stop sign on a bike.

Did a long swim, biked 50 miles, it’s 103 degrees, and I’m lining up for a beer mile- What could possibly go wrong.

I’ve been entrusted with an intern today. After a couple impromptu meetings, she described my job as “constructive gossip.”

My wife ordered a mystery $10 cycling jersey from an online site, and they sent her a jersey from my school, same class I graduated from. Internet knows everything, I guess.

Whoever I got these 1975 Hostess cards from a long time ago thought Carew was a Star, Thurman and Willie were ok, and gave Richie Hebner a “Yea!”

When my parents send me boxes of stuff as they downsize, most of it is sports related (and a lot is Ryne Sandberg stuff), but in the latest box I got this nice cardboard poster. Respect for a guy that never gave up.

The Mad Shitter, a military legend in peace and war. He/She will never be caught.

Thanks to @nightowlcardz.bsky.social for the old Hostess cards during the Sunday giveaway by @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social. 45 years ago, a mom bought a box of Twinkees for her son, and he imperfectly cut these with a pair of scissors.

I’m in an ongoing textual relationship with a guy trying to finish his first Vol State 314 mile race (across Tennessee). My first time I got food from a garbage can, lied to my mom that everything was fine, and lamented about my pain to my wife at mile 186. Kids these days…

Communities near our ports, like those in the Bay Area, bear the brunt of maritime pollution. Excited to re-introduce the Maritime Pollution Accountability Act, which would make our shipping industry more sustainable, protect public health & tackle climate change. Learn more ⬇️

My computer fails to mention that the “role” is to undermine the effort.

The author would be horrified to hear about the sophomoric mischief and casual attitude toward private property displayed by our future military leaders during any Army/Navy week. #GoNavy

Is there a Topps Now baseball card out yet of the Dodgers denying ICE access to Dodger stadium?

Ryan Bingham and the Texas Gentlemen, Sacramento, CA. Great show- every cowboy in the Sac area was there I think.

kristi noem as porta potties: thread

Me- I think I’ll unplug and go outside for some nice physical activity away from the pressure of the modern day world. Tech Industry- LOL, nice try.

#USNA Class of 1991 meets Class of 1971 at the Gold Country Century ride in Grass Valley, CA. Richard Burgess did all 5 Ironman triathlons in CA last year, qualified for the World Champs in Nice, FR, and the Half Ironman World Champs in Marbella, SP. Crazy accomplishment in your mid 70s. #GoNavy

So do we get why I was banned from speaking about Pinochet at the Naval Academy now?

At Sac A’s vs Minn Twins and Detroit #Tigers legend Willi Castro has 2 home runs.

A friend brought me an old box the other day and said “I got you some baseball cards from a storage locker we cleaned.” I was hoping 1970s and maybe earlier stuff, but it was all 88-92, with two cards from 84. Still fun to sort through- now I have to figure out what to do with them.

Tork 💣
