It’s a Division Series update from me and @hannahrkeyser.bsky.social at The Bandwagon.

On the Trajekt tech that might have made the Yankees (a little) less helpless against the Blue Jays, pitch-tipping paranoia and more. bandwagon.substack.com/p/80-paranoi...

"The resignations, which they said would take effect on Oct. 13, were accepted immediately and left two of the newspapers with one reporter each, and a third without any journalists on staff, they said."

β€œWe were once exceptional, people who beat the creative odds. We’d emerged victorious over the consistent urging to pursue a real career, a real-person job. Quickly, we’ve become a class of cautionary tales. The exceptionalism swings the other way, now.”

Every song I’ve ever heard sounds the same to me until I know the words. Listening to new music is the necessary grunt work I put myself through so I’m not still exercising to fall out boy

How do people have opinions on music so quickly (complimentary).

If I trip and eat it, like hit the ground, I’m done for the day. I might be done for tomorrow. Professional athletes are insane.

This pitching matchup is a microcosm of the paradox of modern major league pitching: the pitching is all too good, there’s not enough pitching.

i think the good parts of managing are constant low level and the bad parts are discrete peaks...does that make sense?
