I just saw a little bit of The Ringer's Fantasy Football Draft Special on Netflix. One of the drafters was Danny Kelly, former head writer for Field Gulls. Feeling a little like Philo Farnsworth over here.

Journalist Sarah Jones: "A mock-up of Trump’s triumphal arch oozed a pus-like substance, and a robot dog danced alone in the mud. Nearby, the reflecting pool sat green and full of algae, lethal to ducklings and irresistible to protesters." We've reached the Mad Libs phase. (Not *those* Libs.)

Mitch McConnell just called me. We spoke for 2 hours about his feelings. "I've been such an open book," he tells me. Finally he muttered, "The geese know...", trailed off and hung up. I've got to start using a burner phone.

Thrilled for Knicks fans and especially Mike Brown. It took him all of 18 months after getting fired by Sacramento to reward their impatience.
