NEW: Ernst Tanner has built a powerhouse at the Philadelphia Union. But my @us.theguardian.com investigation has shown wide-ranging allegations of misbehavior throughout his 7-year tenure. Tanner denies the allegations, and was investigated by MLS this year. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

just saw the worst gaming ad ive ever seen

Clippy looks different than I remember. (and why can't I turn this nonsense off?)

Never mind the red eye flight and the three hour time jump; going from 85 and sunny in LA to this has instantly vaporized my vacation chill.

10 years ago today, @vjarmy.com, @markfishkin.bsky.social and Eric Giacometti prepped #RBNY fans for a massive home playoff game with a pre-game show from the RBA Press Box.

Still need more baseball? We found a CD in our archives containing dozens of unused voice lines from MLB Slugfest 20-03 rejected by the MLB. Here's some of our favorites.

OH: “I guess if you were a candy lover, this would be…” (heard *inside* Economy Candy, Lower East Side, NYC)

Nothing more quintessentially NYC than an art studio hosting a weird art+wrestling show on a normally quiet street. Art hipsters, punk rockers, wrestling nerds, and the Tribeca riche all milling about. Every “so what’s this line for?” conversation, pure joy. Love this town. Love my dumb hobbies.

Happy release day to the millions who were waiting for someone to finally rhyme “that brown liquor” with “my dick’s bigger”.

#RBNY hyping an overloaded-with-buzzwords premier amenity tier called "Hype House" less than 12 hours before their 15-season playoff streak ends? Well, that *truly* brings the vibes - and you know me, I thrive on vibes! So this is clearly my place! www.newyorkredbulls.com/hypehouse

Yo @benjaminbirdie.bsky.social, where are we dropping?

A truly incredible day of games and game-likes alike.

We used to joke that given how much we were there, the Dead Rabbit was our second home. Now, their spin-off Irish/Mexican pub San Patricios is a few blocks from our actual home in Jersey City. My friends, we are so back.

Of all the macOS Tahoe UI changes, I'm going to mostly struggle with the volume change graphic moving from bottom center (where it has been since 2001?) to a top right corner lozenge.

we really out here making babies for this baby trading simulator, huh video games

Imagine not enjoying something as weird and wonderful as wrestling. #senjo

Can't pick between: - The Daft Punk Coney Island show, 2007 - LCD Soundsystem "farewell show" at MSG, 2011 - NIN "farewell tour" (Downward Spiral front-to-back), Webster Hall, 2009 - Wilco, at Pianos, during the 2004 holiday edition of Tinkle - Working the security pit for STP, 2002

Watching #AEWDynamite in 360p, like a true ECW tribute should be.

OH: “I just want a gummy mozzarella stick, that’s all I’m saying. Is that weird?”

Today I'm happy to announce the grand opening of r/Teej: a brand-new subreddit for #TJPW fan discussion! 💖 www.reddit.com/r/teej/ The team we assembled worked hard to spin this up as quickly as possible, so please check it out and join today! #WrestleSky 🤼

Admittedly, three of these are a surprise to be in the first five.

Some more modern US dystopia just hit the inbox: feds watching 7v7 adult soccer leagues in the District

You ever break Facebook’s algorithm so bad it’s showing you strategic planning open houses from small cities you’ve never been to (in a state you haven’t been to since 2014), and when you ask why the algo goes “OTHER FACTORS, okay?!”

Still lamenting Mr. Donahue's no longer being on Mott St., but absolutely here for Mommy Pai's.

"Please don't make me do this," he said. "This is like 'Ratatouille' but the rat has brain damage."

No, sorry, that Sounders goal last night is not anywhere near the level of the Eric Hassli goal - which was on the same end of the same stadium.

My internal monologue last night: "my friend is absolutely not a burden but she seems very set on going back to NYC, let me make sure she doesn't get caught in transit hell" Me this morning: "oh no"

The NYT has a heavy house style that prevents me from using more, shall we say, colorful, language to describe Hulk Hogan but I think I still got my central point across here www.nytimes.com/2025/07/26/o...

“Avant Gardner’s non-executive Chairman of The Board Gary Richards, also known by his DJ alias Destructo, was overheard discussing the difficulties the company had encountered finding a buyer while dining recently at Per Se.” www.bkmag.com/2025/07/08/a...

The sorts of cold call emails you get from merch companies and "clip makers" and all that stuff when you have a youtube channel is crazy. SMASH THE LIKE BUTTON IF YOU'RE DOWN

Guy down the bar to me screaming about two-factor authentication. “WHY DIDN’T YOU GIVE THEM AN RSA TOKEN?!?!”

"We may not have much, we may not have the power to change the world, but we have each other. And at least when we rally together to play Mario Kart World, I get to be the cow."

Hello, I'd like to report a journalistic murder.

ADRENALINE IN MY SOUL VOTE ZOHRAN DON’T RANK CUOMO

Really loving the dystopian weirdness of the JCPD trying to block a delivery robot from the Jersey City pedestrian plaza. (Not my video, all credit to /u/DeepFried328 on Reddit: www.reddit.com/r/jerseycity...)

this is who runs this account

"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."

Most recently, quietly observed a well-known wrestler/manager (on TV weekly!) slightly lose their shit and storm off because a hapless barista couldn't figure out how to apply their hotel talent discount.

The Grid survives in 2025.

If you're wondering how my day is going, a family member sent me AI slop at 6:32 AM.

A makeshift bar built out of a luncheonette. A pork roll infused Manhattan. Sliders in latkes. And an endless supply of the most positive bar energy. “A Popup Called Pancakes” is in its final weekend. If you’re in NYC, you need to go. punchdrink.com/articles/mak...
