John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 2hWhy do sports announcers, especially baseball guys, say “years of age” instead of “years old”? 000
John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Frank Chance is still with us? Huh I had no idea. Also he was a Cub 000

John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Stop saying unique when you mean unusual broadcaster challenge 010

John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 02/10/2026It seems to me that using analytics to assemble a roster is a different task from using analytics to coach a roster. And the difference confuses people. 000
John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 29/09/2026It is stunning how much better a broadcast is when you put people in the booth who like baseball 020
John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Four guys in the booth is too many. That said, this Phillies Braves broadcast team has done a wonderful job sharing the mic 000

John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I loved those Liberty bibberty ads. You know, the ones from 8 years ago, with the dumb actor? Those were funny I don’t know who green lit these new ones. Just awful 000
John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Oh dear. Who dafuq picked out Joey Votto’s outfit? Did his wife not get veto power? 001
John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I just think it’s funny that he says he’ll send out the checks *after* the election. If I know anything about Trump, it’s this: if he offers you a bribe, make sure you get the money in advance 010
John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Why? Whether I live in a bubble or not, why should I care (or not) that I live in said bubble? It’s not like I’m closing my eyes to genocide and hunger and devastation. It’s fucking pop music 010

John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I guess it’s possible I’ve *heard it* either in some ad or sportsball fade out/fade in. Those are probably the only things that remain from the monoculture 210

John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Giles brought Harry Kalas Philadelphia, helped bring the Phanatic to life, and help assemble the club that finally brought the Phillies their first World Series title in 1980. 000
John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Whenever people tell me “Trump got boo’d today” and then I listen to the actual audio, it never sounds like booing to me. This is probably because I grew up a Philly sports fan, and we know what real booing sounds like. So, come on, people! You can do better! From the diaphragm! 000

John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 23/09/2026I’ve heard good things about the Fetterman as far as affordability goes, but it’s also pretty unreliable, so buyer beware 130

John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 21/09/2026I’ve been married for 37 years, and we have never discussed The Giving Tree, despite having raised two kids And here’s why: If I ever found out she loved The Giving Tree as a kid — first of all, that would explain a lot. But second, we just might have to end it. 000
John Ford @nomoredevil.bsky.social · 21/09/2026You can learn a lot about a person by asking them what they think of The Giving Tree #booksky #Books #TheGivingTree 240
