I'm a lifelong San Francisco Giants fan--thanks to my mother and grandmother--so was born with hatred in my heart for the Dodgers. Rivalry aside, what Ohtani did last night is simply unbelievable. 3 monster home runs in one game, all while throwing 6 innings of shut out baseball with 10 strike outs

sure, but neither the Slovakia nor the Switzerland matches were strong performance and I think it's that sort of issue that @profspur.bsky.social may be referring too.

Hoping to see it again. It and South were my first two courses in Australia. Never got back so would be great to see them again after seeing so many other great courses.

On the plus side, got funding for public events on sport and religion and was offered the editorship of one of the most prestigious journals in my field...but that's drown out by a senior management who has no vision for what a university actually exists for. More cuts, bigger classes, no promotions

She was torn last year when we went between Deki, Son, and Cuti. Was worried that Son and Romero would leave and she liked the Kulusevski chants.

"To the Penn Community:
For 285 years, Penn has been anchored and guided by continuous self-improvement, using education as a ladder for opportunity, and advancing discoveries that serve our community, our nation, and the world.
Since receiving the Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education on October 1, I have sought input from faculty, alumni, trustees, students, staff and others who care deeply about Penn. The goal was to ensure that our response reflected our values and the perspectives of our broad community.
Earlier today, I informed the U.S. Department of Education that Penn respectfully declines to sign the proposed Compact. As requested, we also provided focused feedback highlighting areas of existing alignment as well as substantive concerns.
At Penn, we are committed to merit-based achievement and accountability. The long-standing partnership between American higher education and the federal government has greatly benefited society and our nation. Shared goals and investment in talent and ideas will turn possibility into progress.
I am grateful to the Penn community for your thoughtful input and for what you bring to our University and our missions every day.
Sincerely,
J. Larry Jameson, MD, PhD
President
University of Pennsylvania"
Just received from a colleague: looks like Penn is going to join the universities refusing the extortionary Trump "compact". I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

that was one of the course readings and a few students are writing mid-term essays on sport writing as modern hagiographies, especially exploring what sort of 'virtues' they seek to instil or depict. It's course on sport, religion, and society.

student is in the joint honours degree on philosophy and theology, so taking another course on epistemic injustice and thought some of those class readings were relevant to how sports figures function in society. Always glad to see students connecting dots.

was talking to a student about their essay and she brought up the idea of using @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social's work on epistemic deference in their essay on professional athletes as modern day saints. I immediately mumbled a COYS and go Super Eagles in response.
