I tried to be a platelet donor today. People told me I was a hero! But I was really nervous and my pulse was too high and they sent me away. I didn’t even get to have any cookies. Only the real heroes get cookies.

This is the most infuriatingly witless talking point. No history is β€œerased” by the removal of a monument. What he means is β€œwe want to celebrate and honor racism,” but that sounds bad, so we’re supposed to pretend this illiterate goon has some deep interest in the study of history.

Does Cruz Azul really need to use three digits for one of its players?

And to confuse the spelling anymore, he went by Murry Dickson.

My Coffee Bean App has a weird sense of telling me what is near to me.

England wins the Euros again. If you have one of the weird oversized floral hats that English upper class wear to Ascot, throw it to the sky!

The batter never got involved with the play. Because Johnny Bench was standing in front of him.

Rich Hill is coming back to MLB at age 45. Prior to tonight, there had not been a game-ending catcher interference in his lifetime. The Stanford Prison Experiment took place two weeks AFTER the previous walkoff CI.

The opening titles of Room 222 bring you back to a time when high school history teachers drove convertibles to work. And the principal parked his car without locking the door or rolling up the windows. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PPG...

Is there any way for the push notifications I get from ESPN, which I normally use for stuff like baseball, football, and soccer scores to NOT give me UFC updates? I get sad and angry every Saturday night with those.

Presently on the LA Times mobile app sports landing page, there is a link to a 30 year old prep football feature and a nearly three year old story about Lindsay Gottlieb going on maternity leave.

Remember when the Secret Service tackled a U.S. Senator because they didn’t recognize him? Do you remember a legislator in Minnesota getting murdered? Do you remember masked Federal agents trying to occupy MacArthur Park? Why is there so much crap that we can’t keep up?

If it were hockey, they would tack a run on to the NL total. Do we need a 4th column for the All Star Game: AL wins, NL wins, ties, home run derby wins. The NL gets 2 points and the AL gets 1.

Still no winning and losing pitcher listed. I think this is like soccer. 6-6 tie. NL wins 4-3 on homers.

16.07.2025 04:02 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

The NL had 7 holds and 1 blown save.

I have been napping since I was in college. I missed a talk by Archbishop Desmond Tutu at UCLA because I was taking a nap. Naps today! Naps tomorrow! Naps forever!

The best naps are organic in nature. I think naps are a gift from God.

And there is a halftime show, which is something we need a protective tariff on.

It's a thick rulebook, but it doesn't cover that. It does cover what to do if a pass or a kicked ball hits an animal in the air.

I got a passing score on my 102 rules question to be a high school football official for the upcoming season. One day I will fully understand the high school illegal participation/substituion rule. Today was not that day.
