@sheehannewsletter.bsky.social Something to ponder- as teams scratch players due to possibility of a trade, why not move the All-Star break to end of July and have the trade deadline coincide? The ASG is already passed the midpoint as it is, what’s another couple of weeks?

Billionaires are oppressed. The poor are greedy. Whites are victims of racism. The police are victims of brutality. Medicine is unhealthy. Censorship is free speech. Corruption is innovation. This onslaught of malignant absurdism has broken everything. It has broken me.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Great read and not just if you are a Dodger fan. The bottom section on revenue is must read.

As an independent online journalist my very living relies 100% upon engaging people on the internet who may become subscribers. I built my business on Twitter, but I fully left the platform over a year. 2025 was nonetheless my best year yet. If I don't need Twitter no one does. Get off it now.

Congratulations to the Toronto Blue Jays on a magnificent season. It is a shame either team had to lose. And this was a gut punch. 💔💔 Classy players, fanbase, and truly one of the finest cities in the world. Future is bright with Yeasavage, Barger, and Vladdy. Now go re-sign Bo.

I'm sure no one wants to hear it from me but condolences to the Jays fans, an absolutely incredible season, a juggernaut of a team that deserved to win

What’s going to be interesting about the World Series is my mum lives with my brother. Mum is a diehard Jays fan, and my brother has been a diehard Dodgers fan since childhood. Going to be fun times at their place.

I reviewed BILLY JOEL: AND SO IT GOES, featuring five hours of music, stories, bitterness about decades-old album reviews, ex-wives, car crashes, and the amazing story of his father's escape from Nazi Germany. I loved it. stephensilver.substack.com/p/billy-joel...

‘Billy Joel: And So It Goes’ follows eight decades in the life of the Piano Man

The nearly five-hour HBO treatment is a fairly straightforward boomer rock doc that briefly touches greatness.

Taking the paywall off this one for the rest of the day because frankly, I would like people to read it. I spent a lot of time reading through Joan Didion's lists and letters and this is what I found. open.substack.com/pub/lindseya...

Alone With Joan

If I have no particular fondness for Joan Didion, why did I spend weeks looking through her recipes, letters, and reporting notebooks?

Still remember this game vividly. It was the NBC Game of the Week with Vin Scully and Joe Garagiola on the call.

There are plans for women’s pro baseball league to launch in 2026 but in an era of upstart sports leagues, it has an even more lofty goal than most: codify baseball as a true women’s sport. For @frontofficesports.bsky.social frontofficesports.com/wpbl-ausl-ca...

Can a Pro Women’s Baseball League Launch in Softball’s Shadow?

The biggest hurdle to the WPBL’s success may be its closest kindred, which has a head start on talent and audience.

A primer on the two biggest issue facing Canadians

Flow chart asking "what's going on with the Prime Minister" and "what's going on with Blue Jays free agency." In each case they arrive at the conclusion "Look man, it’s hard to find good talent for this job and the Yankees keep talking about plundering our resources so we’re just gonna take whoever we can get"

People keep killing their cats with raw milk and now "raw cat food." Your cat doesn't want raw cat food. She wants Fancy Feast Chicken Feast In Gravy. It tastes like fucking filet mignon to them. Don't kill the only good thing in your life because you saw Jordan Peterson's diet on YouTube once.

Been watching the CBC for a couple of hours now as they report live on Chrystia Freeland resigning. The coverage is informative, thoughtful and most importantly: It educates those watching. Just light years more valuable for viewers than U.S. cable news IMO. No focus on 'winning" the argument.
