Springsteen wrote the song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it today.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

“Get it all on record now — get the films — get the witnesses — because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower, after visiting liberated concentration camps in April 1945
There have been 54 individual player seasons with at least 50 home runs in MLB history
Somehow, incredibly, Shohei Ohtani last year was the first player to finish with EXACTLY 55 home runs in a season on the dot

Tweet from “Best Of Minnesota” @BestPixMN: Minnesota troops defeated and captured a confederate flag from Virginia troops during the Civil War. To this day, Virginia keeps asking for it back and Minnesota keeps telling those losers they can't have it Attached picture of schoolchildren looking at the flag which is in a glass case
Good week for a reminder about the confederate battle flag Minnesota refuses to return to the south

I'll never be a "shut up and dribble" guy. Matt Shaw, like anyone else, is free to speak his mind.
Just as we're free to be disappointed that he has chosen to align himself with a malignant political vehicle. (One that attempts to shield itself with a religion whose teachings it routinely ignores.)
The players always voted Uecker a full playoff share. To my knowledge Kalas, who was beloved by the Phillies as an uncle, who sat with the players on flights, was not voted a share. Scully wasn't. And so forth. It is the ultimate sign of respect. Uecker divided it between his charities.

It should be noted, Mike Piazza is so very far from being anywhere near as good of a person as Rickey. Text from the screenshot. Mike Piazza: “Rickey was the most generous guy I ever played with, and whenever the discussion came around to what we should give one of the fringe people — whether it was a minor leaguer who came up for a few days or the parking lot attendant — Rickey would shout out, ‘Full share!’ We’d argue for a while and he’d say, ‘Fuck that! You can change somebody’s life!’”
Rickey forever ♥️
