Chutes Too Narrow, now there's an album that never burned, never dated itself, was never overhyped or underrated, it's just always been appropriately recognized as the perfect thing it is for 20+ years

this post has become a meme but it is objectively true. Osama should have hooped instead of tryna kill people. Terry Rozier was right to say it

Of all people, Shoeless Joe Jackson would probably be pretty excited that everyone is now cool with sports betting

Bet you didn't know that the Little Morton Salt Girl is an immortal being who existed before there was life on Earth.
An ad for Morton Salt that shows the Little Morton Salt Girl with her umbrella. The text reads "She was there when life was created."

I'm on the other end of the spectrum. Have grown into full-on Sports Radio Meathead, think they're spinless for not trading Luis Pena and Logan Henderson for Skubal

Late pass, obviously, but this to me is a fantastic blog in the classic sense. High-quality language and real insight directed at an otherwise shitty news story, by one of the all-time greats at doing all that. www.nytimes.com/athletic/735...

A state that redraws its legislative maps before every election to maximize advantage for the incumbent party is not a democracy or a republic and in any case obviously violates the guarantee clause, among many others. No country does this. No country ever thought of doing this. It is a total farce.

I only started watching in the "new era" but I thought Season 48 (with Kyle, Kamilla, and Joe) was a huge bore

Talked to an HVAC guy who's working two jobs to pay rent. He has no savings and worries about retirement. Tariffs have made it hard for him to import parts. Then this big strong guy who never cries, he said, he said to me, "I just wish Trump's signature was on the dollar." Then he burst out crying.
New York Times headline reads: "Trump’s Signature to Be Added to U.S. Dollars

President Trump is set to be the first sitting president to have his signature appear on America’s currency."
