the nbc announcers doing a lot of talking over the teams discussing their shots in the bronze match. round robins had half ends without more than 20 words said.

I need to see watch party reactions to those final ends.

Dr. Strange created this tie to trap Dormammu.

Miami adequately charging their powers through personal fouls. Calling on the old gods.

My daughter was born in late 2013; her Super Bowl Champs onesie is in the Box of Important Things.

Tim’s makes an All Dressed now, too.

Tim’s Cascade Husky Chips forever.

But I wouldn’t have been interested if it weren’t for seeing them in the paper, and the fact that $2 per week got a daily, locally-written small-city newspaper (with those comics and the rest of the world) on our doorstep by 6:00am is probably the biggest factor (and a great societal loss).

I read *every* newsprint comic collection the County Library had in its collection; dozens of branch transfers and bookmobile trips.

My best friend’s house growing up had wallpaper with sports quotes, “Win with class, lose with class, and always respect your opponent. -Yves Auriol, Notre Dame fencing” is burned into my brain forever.

Chthulu’s Reflex, Cobra precursor in some persons.

App knows to account for the “I got warrants in Tennessee” folk.

Somehow Bo Nix has become the “Go home and be a family man” Guile of the NFL? That’s a fun casting choice.

Bo Nix is a soul skater out of water.

National Champion Washington Husky Men’s Soccer!

23° feels-like temperature in a hostile environment, that’s some earned hot cocoa.

The 6th graders are alright: “In Sparta the government was extremely unfair, their government being a collection of elderly men who were rich and used to be Spartan soldiers.”

Y’all fuckin rip!

Very old Seattle Mariners giveaway shirt which reads “TRUE TO THE BLUE”

Progressing toward Monster Jam seating conditions of “only needing the edge.”

I sent messages to all my buddies during the buildup to first pitch that I hoped every kid in the stadium left the Park feeling like I did walking down those Kingdome ramps in ‘95.

Get in, sluts, we’re going to the ALCS.

Seeing September Maryland slide into October in real time was a bit of a trip.

U-Dub!!! September Maryland got ready for that first half, but October Maryland had to finish out the game.

This kid sits with The Kid in the home dugout of the Kingdome.

I’ll be damned if I didn’t feel like this again tonight.

AL West champion Seattle Mariners. I’m lying if I didn’t just feel a weight come off my chest. Teary-eyed became salty rollers.

goms forever

Walking my dog and happened upon a pair of banana Runts on the a sidewalk. I bet whoever dropped their Runts picked up the good ones to eat later. Local fauna won’t even touch the ‘nanners.

My beloved Mariners just clinched a playoff spot, are one game from clinching the division, and control their destiny for a bye. I also have an orchid that sprouted seven buds over the weekend.
