After looking at the projections, I asked myself how much better the Mariners are on paper to begin 2026 than they were to begin 2025, and then I talked for way too long about it on YouTube. youtu.be/ARoeBu2jZ9Q

/guy completely broke from crypto, NFTs, and online gambling Oh sick

Trophies don't care about narratives — the Seahawks beat down a damn good football team on Sunday to earn their second. We broke down Seattle's legendary performance with our guy @dannybkelly.bsky.social:

May earnestly root for the Seattle Mariners this season. As a bit.

new poster for work from last week, coordinated with a group of 2nd graders. I have a preschool preparing a clothing drive next week. was just contacted by a guy who wants to make his 40th birthday a benefit concert. every day, small acts of rebellion against the darkness.

I wrote about a scouting lesson I only fully learned after writing one of my worst reports. This is a fun one: blogs.fangraphs.com/my-worst-rep...

LRT: I fall into despair and anxiety easily. The way information channels work are designed to make us do so. It's important to remember how many people are willing to help out, and care about those in need. It's most of us, honestly.

Wow! We do it! Oh my gosh, I am overwhelmed. You all were so kind and generous. We raised the $3k goal super quickly. I know there’s a ton of need out there and this family specifically will probably need more. I’ll reach out to everyone who DM’ed that I couldn’t get back to in time. I love you all!

Me IRL when I realize how many times that means the Seahawks would win

Theory: like Pokémon AJ Barner is simply an evolved Kelce Brother.

An honor and a privilege to write alongside @groan.bsky.social about my eternal tormentors and loves of my life, the Seattle Damn Mariners. As a show of respect for my colleagues and the hallowed pages of the @baseballprospectus.com Annual I indulged in but one (1) 54% joke.

My kid's parade report: -High-fived Jake Bobo (assume he has a contact buzz as a result) -Reciprocal salute with JSN -Got beer dumped on him by Derick Hall -Observed AJ Barner in awe and wonder "They were all so drunk. Except Macdonald."

More (beer) Bobo!

I have no idea why anyone cares about what Jodie Allen does or does not say about Paul Allen

Massive head wound being an additive for AJ Barner absolutely checks out (extremely complimentary)

I guess we'll never know

Worth watching this in full. The statement is more powerful than this quote alone. Here is is from USA Today, with alt text. Also! Rich Ruohonen is a personal injury lawyer and the oldest athlete to ever represent the United States in a Winter Games at 54 years old.

Like 75% of the US Olympic curlers are from Minnesota. A lot of them curl out of two clubs in Saint Paul, one club is in Frogtown, a neighborhood that has been very heavily targeted by ICE. These curlers are good neighbors.

Age verification? Dig through the ditches, and burn through the witches. I slam in the back of my Dragula

What I’m learning from the Winter Olympics is that the people who train their entire lives to ski alone and shoot stuff in the process are not ok emotionally.

Hawk fans: Your team won the Super Bowl in dominant fashion and had one of the greatest seasons in the history of football. It doesn't matter what anyone thinks about it. That's the nice thing about winning.

An entire political movement and power structure built off the well-founded belief that its constituents will never ever connect a single pair of dots.

Mike Macdonald to Josh McDaniels after watching tape on the Patriots:

ngl Reddit cooked with this one

No one needs another white guy’s bad bunny opinions but whatever: If your reaction to a dude throwing a party celebrating his people and culture under a banner of peace and unity is to feel like *your* culture is under direct attack your culture probably sucks.

Men will spend a Sunday slowly disemboweling their still-living enemies in front of the world and then bro out about it rather than go to therapy

RETVRN 2 PODCASTS

If the Cardinals and Pats switched divisions for 2025 do the Pats finish last in the NFC West?

After watching the Super Bowl Champion Seattle Seahawks play Matthew Stafford and Drake Maye four times collectively I am willing to offer I believe NFL voters chose the correct QB for MVP.

Asking any ICE agents I see today if they enjoyed the Kid Rock halftime show.

Last time I was in Vegas was 2012. I did $100 on Black and lost And did $50 on a Seahawks SB and won. Just lost $100 on Black. Seahawks ‘25 SB. Book it.

shout out to @fourverts.bsky.social who, prior to the game, was as unequivocal about his thoughts re: Josh McDaniels and the Pats offense as any national voice I heard. Essentially hit 'em with "yes they deserve to die and I hope they burn in hell."

We are already seeing it, but everyone who was for this is going to tell us that they were against it. Don’t let them lead.

Still laughing that the NFL was like nah we still need to sell internationally sorry dipshits and put Bad Bunny on at halftime

don’t think this one made it here yet

Will probably just he periodically shooting out random football thoughts this week. Gotta let that one settle in

www.youtube.com/live/PkhIZZl... couldn't sleep. Went live to talk about it. It was fun.

the turnovers were cool but the single play that summed up that super bowl was rylie mills getting his first career sack by hitting a dude with his own left guard

Going to bed but finally, definitively: What the hell was every non-NFC West NFL team doing in 2026??!? Especially the AFC??

America: I’m sorry the Seahawks are just really really good at football in a way that is not befitting your preconceptions about rookie QB contracts or wow offensive genius coordinators. Really I am.
