The Dodgers won the entire 1963 World Series in eight hours and 17 minutes.

The problem with allowing guns everywhere is that no one is safe anywhere.

Billy Haas took home $11.4 million when he won the Tour Championship in 2011 — $1.4m for the event and $10m for being first in FedEx points. Tommy Fleetwood won $10m for winning the FedEx Cup 14 years later. Makes no sense. This event is all about $$$, not prestige, and the $$$ has gone down?

What a crock. Pandemic would have been so much worse in the USA if not for work NIH and others were doing, and had been doing for decades. Read the non-partisan book “Abundance” for anecdotal proof.

Exciting. Well done. Congrats.

That’s a hard no.

Greatest album ever? I think … maybe. It’s great.

Thanks for posting, J.P. Scott was as talented as he was hard-working, and even more humble. I was lucky to know him for a long time.

Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first. One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish. Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my school’s standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didn’t diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I don’t feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points. We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Soren’s participation in the girls’ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are. Anelise Feldman Freshman, Yarmouth High School Yarmouth

this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

White Sox utility man Brooks Baldwin is a good ballplayer. Including an 8-0 loss to the A’s today, the Sox are 5-40 in his career starts. Give him a hug if you see him.

If Jeff Bezos can send Katy Perry into space, he can pay a wealth tax so every American has debt-free healthcare.

We’re all Alabama State tonight.

I am working out of a public library and there are a good number of people who seem to be on hard times using the facilities for various reasons like job searching, entertainment, charging peripherals, using the bathroom, etc., and I am struck by how important it is that libraries continue to exist

This is Judy Bullockus, hard-right member of the Capo Unified School Board in Orange County, California. During a meeting last night, she dropped the n-word. I am calling for her to resign. Please share. These people hate the exposure of sunlight. #resist #truth

That’s a clown question, bro.

I’m sure there’s room to criticize Zelenskyy, but watching him with Trump and Vance, you see a man with real personal courage standing up to two assholes with no character

Make that chriswarcraft@bsky.social.

That is some BS w/@chriswarcraft.bluesky.social. Brought me right back down after I cancelled my WaPo subscription. Here’s hoping Chris comes out of this w/a better coaching job, real soon.

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

Keep your eye on Cubs pitching prospect Jack Neely. He’s tall and combines easy heat w/nasty breakers. Struck out two of three in an inning against the Dodgers. He could develop into an impact guy in the bullpen.

This is how it’s done.

The addition of Justin Turner should give the Cubs a small bump to 91 wins in Baseball Prospectus’ Pecota rankings (from 90.6 previous). Nobody else in the NLC projects to more than 80.6 (Brewers). Terry Francona should be the only thing keeping Craig Counsell up at night.

Smart move by Cubs to sign Justin Turner. He’s slowing down at age 40 but fits perfectly as a platoon piece at first and insurance behind rookie Matt Shaw at third. While Michael Busch hit 21 HRs last year, only one came off a lefty. Turner’s smart, tough. He makes teams better.

OK, here's a crazy idea to improve the NBA All-Star game. Play basketball.

John Cazale, who played Fredo Corleone, died of cancer at 43, six years after “The Godfather” was released. He acted in five films, and they were all nominated for Best Picture. That’s almost hard to believe. So impressive. So sad he was lost so young.

“Leave the gun; take the cannolli.” Great line from a movie that starts with this sentence: “I believe in America.” What can I say? I was WAY overdue to watch “The Godfather” again.

On my to-do list: Listen to lots of Sheryl Crow. Loved her selling her Tesla and donating the money she earned to NPR. Time for, “If It Makes You Happy.”

Rafael Devers is fooling himself about being a third baseman. He’s a great hitter but the Red Sox will be much better w/Alex Bregman at third and Devers as the DH. Fangraphs has Devers at -62 Defensive Runs Saved career. Plus, he already has his $313.5 million contract. Time to be a team-first guy.
