Right? I remember the diving. Maybe Tommy Lasorda shows up at some point or something?

I haven't seen BACK TO SCHOOL in about 30 years, so I don't remember every bit of it, but... It's in no way a baseball movie, right? Can anyone think of any reason why MLB Network would be showing it tonight?

there must be some way to watch the The Ring tape without all that hassle. mirrors maybe. polarized lenses. computer. this awful girl has been in that well for ages, i gotta have a leg up here tech wise

Other tactics: Mute the volume; switch from live video to the pitch-by-pitch text-and-graphics display; turn off the game entirely and don't turn it back on until I get an alert on my phone that we're mounting a comeback. (Sports fandom is such a relaxting pastime.)

Whenever I'm stressed about how shakily the Braves are playing (as I have been for about two straight months now), I prefer to watch their games on my iPad rather than the TV, because I feel like if they're physically smaller they can't hurt me as badly.

You're not allowed to use your hands in soccer unless you are throwing them into the air in disgust and/or dismay.

Charles Schulz never shifted in his praise for Roy Crane.

Roy Crane accidentally teaching everyone how to draw water.

My Apple Music shuffle can apparently sense where my head is at right now.

It’s weird how conservatives think having more kids than liberals means there will be more conservatives when every Drag Race contestant’s bio is “I grew up in a town where the only employers were the church and the prison, I was raised by my aunt after my mom was executed for working on Sunday”

Try to find the little out-of-the-way volcano where the locals go.

Need to make sure that @briancgrubb.bsky.social is aware of this.

The best thing to happen yesterday (a low bar to clear but still) was a dog named Peanut Butter winning a game of SNES Ken Griffey Baseball in under 30 minutes at the Games Done Quick convention -- in a 12th inning walkoff, no less.

My wife and one of my kids love GDQ so we all gathered around my iPad to watch the whole run live.

Saw an AI fireworks show and a guy lost all 7 fingers on one hand.

I’m pleased and happy to repeat the news that we have in fact caught and killed a large predator that supposedly injured some bathers.

I used to stubbornly call it Camel Cup just to make my kids mad.

Okay. What about your local school board? What about the elected officials in your local criminal justice system? You don't think your mayor and city council have any direct effect on environmental policy or health care in your community? Who exactly is "hollowing out the public sector," I wonder?
