The Tyler Parker shoutout is so good for my street cred.

Thanks, man. Still gonna do some Thunder podcasting and some Thunder reading every word you write.

Pretty amazing — and still a little surreal — to officially announce that I’ve joined the Lexington Herald-Leader as sports editor.

Naked Gun is dumb as hell in all the ways you want it to be. Four stars, no notes.

I quite liked but didn’t love Thunderbolts and Fantastic Four and think that often in recent years Marvel has been better at teasers and trailers than movies.

And yet, they still lured me in with a 23-second clip of a new Spider-Man costume.

Cued up the new Tyler Childers for the morning commute, and I have to say I expected to learn less about which venereal diseases koala bears carry.

Bye-bye Li’l

Imagine Zach Snyder's The Rocketeer, where the sun never shines and he's just burning people's faces off with the jetpack.

Coming to Apple TV+ in 2027 starring Glen Powell and directed by Jon Watts.

He is both the biggest news story in the world and secretly a reporter.

Also, Clark Kent’s journalistic ethics? Questionable.

I had forgotten until I watched it again that they dubbed Reeve’s voice with a younger actor for teenage Clark.

They say the extended Batman v Superman is better too, but I just can’t. I certainly never thought the problem with that movie was that there wasn’t enough of it.

I’m genuinely optimistic about the new one (though I’m hit-and-miss with James Gunn). I just want a refreshed memory on the old ones to carry me into it.

Superman Returns is… really not that bad? I remember thinking it was way worse. I’m stopping the rewatch at Man of Steel, which is every bit the chore I remember but not the impossible slog that Batman v Superman is for me.

You have to view the original through the lens of its time. It’s pretty corny, but I have real affection for it. Superman II isn’t as good as I remember. It’s a wonder that III — a bad Richard Pryor movie that Superman is in — got made. IV is such a dull disaster that it’s not even fun to laugh at.

Was not so much a Superman guy growing up, but I liked the early movies as a kid. Decided to rewatch everything in advance of seeing the new one, and I’m almost there but boy do you have to power through some slop to do this.

It was subtle.

This is so good. Really cool for an athlete to be this candid and pull back the curtain so thoroughly.

Marvel take: “Ironheart” is… kinda good? (Shrugs)

My parents are downsizing to a condo, so I’m on a “sift through stuff and take want you want trip” to their house and, yeah, I want this.

An undeniably beautiful shot from today’s Thunder parade that captures the growth of the city and what it has overcome over the last 30 years to get to this moment — and just how much that title means to OKC.

I drove in from Guthrie this morning and saw a handful of cars with Thunder flags. Looked like everybody who lives in Mesta Park was walking toward the parade route. Elemental has a line wrapping around to the door.

It looks like they’re closing during.

Shouts to Elemental, the best coffee shop in Oklahoma, for what based on the current crowd in here seems poised to make more money today than any coffee joint in the history of the world.

Have seen more than one person suggest that the Pacers will be the truly memorable team from these NBA Playoffs, and I guess I just wonder, are y'all not capable of remembering two teams? It's only two!

Lol the draft is in three days.

(Kinda wish I had a game story to write.)

You have to ache for the Pacers. Amazing run, and the pain of losing Haliburton and the what-ifs of that. What a postseason. Awesome team.
