Hello Sports Fans. At the special request of @dhm.bsky.social, I have ripped a very special tape. Here's an FM RF VHS rip of Best Of SportsCenter With Chris Berman, a compilation of the best moments in 1991 on ESPN, extracted via a Domesday Duplicator. Enjoy. archive.org/details/best...

Hi friends. I’m taking some time off for chemo. Not the way I wanted to start 2026, but it’s a necessary step. I’ll be trying to stay disconnected. I hope you can keep me in your prayers as I continue treatment.

@dhm.bsky.social my local card store replenished their supply of 1980s “tips” cards. The 1989 Packers this time. The writer was truly a craftsman. “Drugs can lead to sudden death. Establish yourself as a winner—don’t do drugs.”

Any time Eagles fans are impugned as a group, the individual casting aspersions should recognize that they are actually insulting international icon and hero, Malala Yousafzai.

Someone's home-burned Sony DVD, with this text on the label - "NCKK, THIS DVD ONY LASTS 15 MINUTES. iT HAS ALL THE TIMES I HAVE BEEN ON TV, AND THE ANNOUNCERS TALKING ABOUT ME. IT STARTS ON OPENING DAY, APRIL 26, 1995 WHEN A ST. LOUIS TV REPORTER INTERVIEWED ME IN ST. LOUIS. CHECK OUT MY MULLET!

THE DVD ENDS WiTH THE BOTTOM OF THE 12th INNING IN MONTREAL ON 9/17/93. THE EXPOS SCORED A RUN TO WIN 8-7, THEN RICHIE ASHBURN SAID "I LET'S GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE""

Also found at the Thrift Store, in the CD section, whatever this is. My curiosity was worth the $1.99 to rescue this, if even the Richie Ashburn thing *alone* proves to be on here. I will let you know.

Dan Gelston, AP writer for Philly, voted for just Chase Utley and Jimmy Rollins for the HOF. He tried to print his name on the bottom part and it’s barely legible.

Dan Gelston’s Hall of Fame ballot is almost perfect. But points off for the penmanship.
