Feel for Kerkering, disliked uniform and all. Hope he’ll be OK.

So MLB has no fake runner in extra innings in the postseason because they know, at least on some level, that it’s stupid and makes a mockery of the game…

…nah, I got nothing.

BROADCASTER: [Voice shaking] They killed him. The Phillies killed Clayton Kershaw. All he's got now is his ring, millions of dollars, and some personal beliefs no one wants to talk about. Oh god the Phanatic is unhinging his snoot and devouring him like a boa. Why is he even here

Bonded with my cousin via social media, which grew into a real-world relationship I cherish.

Never Bunt | Defector PHILADELPHIA β€” By the top of the ninth inning, the stadium was visibly pockmarked by absences, and people were booing Jhoan Duran’s walkout show. Duran, who was just doing his job as the Philadelphia…

On this day in 1925, Christy Mathewson passed away at the age of 45. One of the most beloved athletes of his era, he was baseball’s first true superstar. Here’s my painting of him warming up before a game at West Side Park in 1907, based on the photography of Francis P. Burke.

My father was supposedly one of the smartest people in the world, and he hated that elitist nonsense.

He loathed the idea that intelligence is something you're born with, a single trait that can be measured. It leads to eugenics and bad policy.

Stopped off in his hometown of Carrabelle, Fla., this spring. The town museum has a nice exhibit in his honor.

So many opportunities for someone -- anyone! -- to say, "Hmm, let's not do that."

Ha. Decided to stick to being a quarter-assed Saints fan. Which is also pretty painful these days.

I briefly thought about trying on Jets fandom as a Mets-adjacent experiment and then realized it was the equivalent of voluntarily sticking my hand into a garbage disposal as an experiment.

Whew, that was a close one.

If you can't handle me at my worst (crying in the shower), you don't deserve me at my best (crying in the shower while eating cake)

But yes, this is the story of so many people in my circles. The hollowing out of creativity is so brutal and cruel and helpless ... and so much is being lost, for audiences as well as creators.

Saw my work disappear for reasons that were about my specific situation, gave up and got a day job doing something vaguely adjacent. Kicked the shit out of myself for that decision but in fact I was early ... and, I now realize, lucky.

Cap Bingo update: Apparently Saturday night in the East Village is good hunting? Racked up ARZ, TOR, KC and SAC in like a three-block stretch. Absolutely baffling.

Not quite cultural holes, but I was juuuust too old for the NES and watching Friends to be "well of course" things. Two slightly odd near-misses.

Storytelling and 'Alien' Ridley Scott's horror classic deserves its due as a character movie

Wrote something years ago on Alien as a character movie. In case it's of interest!

That parenthetical is so emblematic of our era; I smiled but also winced. Good luck with the renovation and the attendant frustrations!
