Schwarber absolutely annihilated that one. Pujols off Lidge levels. #WBC2026

The Cosmic All-Stars: The Hitters
Putting together an All-Star team of my favorite
I decided to put together my own, personal All-Star team made up of my favorite players (not making arguments about the best, just the players I enjoy or particularly appreciate).

Instead of using a free period at school to work, I elected to watch early 2000s Oakland A's highlights.

More frustration on the A's leaving Oakland
Two posts in one day! This one on Jon Gruden’s return visit to the Oakland Coliseum as part of covering the #SuperBowl , and some of my complicated feelings about Oakland sports, the A’s, and a little on Gruden too.

So I went a different direction--gave my students some Taylor Swift lyrics to read and analyze as one would a poem. I figured it would be more relatable and exciting. I, sadly, was mistaken.

Low cards are what I've got
But I'll play this hand whether I like it or not
I'm sworn to uphold the laws of God
You could put me out in front of a firing squad

"Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains."
Starting a new publication focused on baseball and doing my best Roger Angell impression
Calling my shot, as it were, and announcing a newsletter focused solely on that great and glorious game of baseball. Just an intro now, I’ll try to cook up some preliminary stuff in the lead-up to the regular season

"There is a road, no simple highway"
Two bands, one name, and their shared representation of one of the twentieth century's major literary movements.
The sad news about Bobby Weir’s passing got me thinking about the Grateful Dead and how they (along with another important group in music history) continued the work of the Beat Generation (though in quite different ways).
