@gameovergreggy.bsky.social did you ever hear back from the mayor’s office in Orange you left a voicemail with about the Orange Party? I can’t imagine he wouldn’t take the offer.

@talkhoops.bsky.social Catching up on Cinephobe and just listened to the Ice Road: Vengeance episode. Curious of how many messages you got about pronouncing Minot wrong as someone currently living here? To clarify, I’m just curious, I wasn’t bothered by it, but I know someone listening was upset.

*Sips Diet Coke* “Bring it on”

I will never get tired of when the non-clean version of a song plays over the PA system accidentally and everyone looks around uncomfortably.

Back-to-school season used to start in August when I was a kid. Now it starts a couple weeks before the previous school year ends.

Don’t know how much faith gamers can have in the future of Xbox with all the recent moves they’ve made. Today is one of those days where I feel like Xbox might not be in the games industry in 5-10 years.

My biggest takeaway from the NBA Draft is that Bob Myers really doesn’t like working with Stephen A. Smith.

Are the Knicks going to draft a coach with their only pick?

Now that I live in a place that doesn’t have Empire apples in their stores, I am happy to announce that I have found a worthy replacement. After being let down by the Red Delicious (more like Red Mid), the Pink Lady apple has won the job.

Why does the U.S. Open insist on making their tournament so difficult that fans are forced to watch golfers attempt to hit a shot in 3-feet high rough that travel 30 feet into the nearby sand trap as that golfer scrambles to save double-bogey? We want good drama, not “who was the least terrible.”

As a sports fan, there is nothing better than central time. The games don’t start too late to feel like you’re sacrificing sleep to catch the end and the games don’t start too early where it just feels weird.

I think that uninhabited island near Antarctica with nothing but penguins that Trump placed tariffs on had a higher number of protestors than Washington D.C. had people attending Trump’s birthday party.

Rookie mistake to schedule your birthday party on the same day as the UFL Championship Game.

I only watch the UFL championship for the halftime show and commercials.

Home. Sweet. Home.

I don’t ever brag about my cooking abilities, but my overcooked, under-seasoned grilled chicken is unrivaled.

Thought the Xbox conference was fine. Not amazing. Not bad. Lot of games announced, but many just not me type of game. I am excited about Cronos: The New Dawn and happy it’ll be out this year. Handheld looks cool, but gotta wait on the price before I’m sold on it.

Crazy how some states refund you 5 or 10 cents to return a soda bottle, while California is out here giving away Honda CRVs.

Hoping @snowbikemike.bsky.social is healthy enough to be on the Xbox Showcase reaction stream today. Missed his presence this week for the State of Play, Switch 2 launch and Summer Game Fest.

That’s why Connor McDavid is the best player in hockey right now. Oh my word that was pretty.

Silent Hill f in September and Resident Evil Requiem in February. Can’t wait for both. Horror video game fans in their glory right now.

Always excited for Summer Game Fest. @geoffkeighley.bsky.social always does a great job. Hoping to see Resident Evil 9 reveal trailer. It seems like it’s time.

To make the NBA Finals more interesting, it should start with the Pacers being up 3-0 in the series and having the next three games being played at Indiana and then, if necessary, Game 7 would be in Oklahoma City.

Hey Aaron Rodgers, today’s not about you. Today is all about the Switch 2. You can go to Pittsburgh tomorrow.

Nothing makes me feel smarter than knowing the answer to Final Jeopardy. It doesn’t happen often, but it happened tonight.

This week is crazy!

This upcoming week is a big/exciting week: Wednesday: Stanley Cup Final begins Thursday: NBA Finals begin and Nintendo Switch 2 launches Friday: Summer Games Fest Sunday: Xbox Summer Showcase Fun week for sports and video games fans.

Are companies and organizations that rolled back or eliminated their DEI programs really going to change their profile to include the pride symbol this month and think they are fooling anyone?

We as a society need to have a discussion about why we are just sitting back and allowing cologne and perfume companies to produce the most bizarre commercials out there. None of them make any sense. Why is there a dude in his underwear randomly shooting an arrow into the sky?

It’s the last week of May and the Rockies still don’t have 10 wins this season. That’s crazy.

I’m surprised NFL owners voted to allow players to compete in flag football in the 2028 Olympics. These owners and teams put in language in player contracts disallowing things like playing in pickup basketball games at the local YMCA. Players can blow out an ACL or Achilles playing flag football.

I said after Game 6 that Toronto should petition the NHL to play Game 7 in Florida. The Leafs cannot play well in high-pressure games in front of their home fans.

Roses are red Violets are blue The Leafs can’t win a crucial playoff game at home What else is new?

I like how the NFL leaks out like 75% of the schedule before the actual release. They might as well leak who’s playing in the Super Bowl as well.

The Mavericks are going to trade the No. 1 pick to the Lakers in exchange for Luka and LeBron. Dallas played us like fools. This was the plan all along.

Knicks and Pacers learning that their opponents were just playing with their food in Games 1 and 2 and they were the food.

When fans at basketball games start chanting “De-fence,” do you think the players then go, “They’re right, I guess we should play defense. I almost forgot.”

That Jason Tatum/Superman commercial is bad timing considering Tatum’s Kryptonite is 20-point leads against the Knicks and 3-point shooting.

In the span of two hours, I have gotten two texts from the same person somewhere in Southern California thinking my name is Lucy and wanting us to go eat Italian food tomorrow. Dude, I’m not Lucy and I’m not flying to California to eat Italian food with you.

You would think the credit card company would flag that as suspicious.

Trump has pissed off Canada so much that the Maple Leafs are actually playing well in the playoffs.

NBA facing the real possibility of a Pacers-Timberwolves finals.

While at Crumbl ordering a 6-pack of mini cookies and 1 regular-size cookie, there was one other customer in the store: my doctor. Thankfully, my blood glucose levels are good or else my next appointment could have been awkward when she asked me how my sugar intake has been lately.

Everybody betting on Journalism at the Kentucky Derby should also have to subscribe to an online newspaper subscription of their choice for 12 months. Help journalism in more than one way.

The most improved player award seems kinda like a backhanded compliment. “Hey you used to suck. Now you don’t suck. Here’s a trophy.”

Well…that sucks. Another year of waiting. And with the economy heading in the direction it is, it will cost at least $100.

That was as much as a must-win for Toronto as it was for Ottawa because no franchise in all of sports is worse at home when under tremendous pressure than the Maple Leafs. They would have lost Game 7 no doubt about it.

A major price increase 5-6 years later is unheard of, but unfortunately the new reality considering how the current trade wars and tariffs are negatively impacting the global economy. Video games was once an escape from politics. But politics has now infiltrated our escapism.

If you’re Nico Harrison, do you bring up the fact that the Mavericks and Lakers won the same number of postseason games this year?

My Maple Leafs hat should be arriving just before they choke away this series.
