Here is what the Bible says in Matthew 5:46-48 about just loving "the people on the inside."

I worked with Bailey at The Dispatch. She is so supremely talented, and she's too good for the Washington Post. I can't wait to see her next chapter.

True story: I was asking a question at a Blue Jackets press conference when the coach, a good guy having a bad night, yelled at me. The next reporter called on repeated my question. I will never cease be grateful to Shawn Mitchell for that. And the coach never refused to answer a question again...

Before this news broke, this was Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett on her visit with Liam: "He was so lethargic, he was never alert the entire time we were there. I was very, very concerned about his health." To be clear, her thought at the time was that he was extremely depressed.

Defenseman Zach Werenski has tied former Columbus forward Artemi Panarin (50 GP in 2018-19) as the fastest Blue Jackets player to reach 60 points in a single season.

Welp. Charlie Coyle has gone ice cold. It's been a whole game since he's scored a goal.

Ohio State battled early but couldn't get nearly enough defensive stops to win at Wisconsin. Here are three quick takes from the Kohl Center.

I'm not sure if the Blues played "Day-O" in honor of Catherine O'Hara. But if so? Huge ups to the game ops staff in St. Louis.

Why is MSN using this pretty obviously AI-generated photo of Elizabeth Warren scowling? I cannot find the pic via a reverse image search, and it's uncredited within the story.

Columbus Crew are finalizing a deal to send forward Jacen Russell-Rowe to France's Toulouse FC, a source has confirmed.

Somehow we are on the 800th day of January.

Happy birthday, Mom! And Rick Bowness. But mostly Mom.

The Blue Jackets have won six of their last seven, and Saturday's win was over the hottest team in the NHL as the Lightning had a 15-game point streak going.

@charlotteclymer.bsky.social Hey, I've just been thinking about you today. Figured that, as a veteran yourself, today's events would hit you awfully hard. So know that I am always rooting for you and hoping you are well.

I worked with Washington Post Capitals beat reporter Bailey Johnson. She's a rock star, both as a journalist and as a human being. She deserves a whole lot better than this.

Derek Dorsett can still spin a good yarn. Here's his side of topping the NHL in penalty minutes in 2011-12, needing to pass Zac Rinaldo in the season finale -> #CBJ www.dispatch.com/story/sports...

I read the first edition of this book before [gestures at everything going on] and it already felt resonant. How very much actual virtue, instead of the cosplay kind, needs to become part of the discussion again.

In addition to being bad, this is all pretty stupid.

This is astonishing.
