Arte Moreno bought the Angels in 2003 (the year after they won the Series) for $184 million. He then spent 23 years running them into the ground, let the stadium decay, wasted Trout and Ohtani, and sold for $4 billion. And the owners are crying poverty and threatening to kill baseball next year.

Arte mismanaged a franchise in the country's largest media market for over twenty years. They have one playoff appearance in 15 years, and zero playoff wins in that time. He's going to make over ten times his original investment (adjusted for inflation). It's the least risky investment in the world.

Someone has already shared the Wingspan crop art with @elizhargrave.bsky.social. there's also a Wingspan cake at the fair! Dunno if this is a hummingbird cake too. That'd be cool.
A 2-tiered square cake representing the boardgame Wingspan. The cake is topped with a gingerbread rendition of the birdhouse-shaped dice tower used in the game, with fondant dice and some game tokens. On the side of the lower tier is an edible card depicting an American goldfinch.

I got to combine two of my passions in this story about why the US publisher of the board game Catan is now striking partnerships with sports teams, including the Timberwolves and the Ottawa Senators: www.nytimes.com/athletic/751... (unlocked)
nytimes.com
Why a board game is popping up across the NBA, NHL, and NFL (Gift Article)
Catan, one of the world's most popular board games, is hoping to lure in sports fans with a growing number of partnerships.

Good lord I wish some of you could read on this text based social media website.
Yeah. This is Jack Dorsey saying Twitter wants to be AT Protocol, not a product. Here we are, and that’s Bluesky in big ways, but it is also a product. People know what that logo means. Political pundits say “the Bluesky crowd,” and that signifies whatever they want it to signify. I’m just wondering if you want to break that branding in any meaningful way.

Yeah, we want to expand it. “Breaking” is maybe the wrong word, but yes, we want to expand more and more so that Bluesky means not just one thing, not just liberal politics, for example. I will point to sports as an example from the last year. We’ve made a very concerted effort to bring on sports leagues and sports writers, and it’s worked really well. There are a ton of sports conversations now on the app, and those people come here for the sports, not for the liberal politics. It’s possible to expand.

I like how FIFA says "this is in line with Article 27 of our disciplinary code" and you expect it to be something about the specific reasons when they can undo improper VAR decisions or a review of the specific play but its just "we can undo suspensions if we decide to undo suspensions" lmao
SUSPENSION OF IMPLEMENTATION OF DISCIPLINARY
MEASURES
1. The judicial body may decide to fully or partially suspend the implementation of
a disciplinary measure.
2. By suspending the implementation of the sanction, the judicial body subjects the
person sanctioned to a probationary period of one to four years.
3. If the person benefiting from a suspended sanction commits another infringement
of a similar nature and gravity during the probationary period, the suspension shall
be revoked by the judicial body and the sanction enforced without prejudice to
any additional sanction imposed for the new infringement.
4. Disciplinary measures relating to match manipulation cannot be suspende

Mostly agree, but as someone who is a fan of a team on its 11th straight losing season, wasted the prime of two generational players and has an owner who thinks winning isn't a top 5 priority, it's ok to not be as tuned in every day and scale back some for your mental health.

The only bad thing is that Shohei Ohtani has ended any reasonable "who is the best player ever" argument. Bonds, Ruth, Mays, Trout...if you want to make a WAR case, a value case, that's different, but Shohei Ohtani is the best to ever play baseball.

Wow. The Angels announced the passing of Garret Anderson, an Angels Hall of Famer and 2002 World Series champion. He was 53 years old.
STATEMENT ON THE PASSING OF ANGELS HALL OF FAMER GARRET ANDERSON
ANAHEIM - The Angels released the following statement on the passing of Angels Hall of Famer Garret
Anderson.
"The Angels Organization is mourning the loss of one of our franchise's most beloved icons, Garret Anderson," said Angels Owner Arte Moreno. "Garret was a cornerstone of our organization throughout his 15 seasons and his stoic presence in the outfield and our clubhouse elevated the Angels into an era of continued success, highlighted by the 2002 World Series Championship.
Garret will forever hold a special place in the hearts of Angels fans for his professionalism, class, and
loyalty throughout his career and beyond. His admiration and respect for the game was immeasurable.
We extend our deepest condolences to Garret's wife Teresa, daughters Brianne and Bailey, son Garret
Trey Anderson Ill, and his entire family."
Anderson was originally drafted by the Angels in the fourth round of the 1990 Draft out of John F. Kennedy
High School in Granda Hills, CA. Anderson would make his Major League debut on July 27, 1994 vs. Oakland before going on to become one of the most productive players in franchise history. He spent 15 of his 17 Major League seasons playing for the Angels and was inducted into the Club's Hall of Fame on August 20, 2016.
A two-time Silver Slugger recipient, three-time All-Star and four-time Angels Team MVP, "GA" remains atop the franchise all-time list in several offensive categories including games (2,013), at-bats (7,989), hits (2,368), total bases (3,743), extra-base hits (796), doubles (489) and RBI (1,292). He also ranks second in runs scored (1,024) and third in home runs (287). Known for his reliability over the course of his career, Anderson had a stretch of eight consecutive seasons appearing in at least 150 games for the Angels and played in at least 140 games in 11 of his 17 Major League seasons.
Shortly following his distinguished 17-year playing career, Anderson joined …
