Beefing with the most beloved person in baseball media didn’t go well? Wild, unforeseen!

I’m not usually a violent man, but as someone who spent far too much time in a city hospital filled with Covid patients, I’d like to **** this ignorant mf to ***** with a pipe wrench.

I don’t know much Bob Seger but that song absolutely slaps.

I actually learned of it bc a babysitter played us “American Pop”, a Ralph Bakshi animated musical that is *absolutely* not for kids. 😂

Read the plot if you’re interested. 😂

Considering RFK Jr.’s history with the Waterkeepers & incredible political influence, surely he will do everything in his power to prevent this from happening.

Lemme just hold my breath & wait…

I have to write tonight but man I am super distracted by a Phillies "reporter" questioning what Bryce Harper adds culturally to the team and saying the team could "move on" from him

D’Angelo has spoken against his sex icon image. He was pushed into that by the label and hated when he was on tour and ladies were treating him like a stripper. I hope in his passing we can celebrate his incredible musicality and dedication to the craft. 🌚

One of the most absurd Sports Radio Brain takes I’ve ever heard

Devan Kaney isn't ruling out the Phillies moving off Bryce Harper this offseason 👀

"My initial thought would be Trea Turner. {...} But it could also be Bryce Harper. Which Sounds crazy. This is a player who's really on the back half of his career. He's only getting older. He really hasn't done a ton in the regular season or postseason. Like, he hasn't put up the numbers that he’s used to. There's only so many times you can go back to Bedlam at the Bank before it gets a little bit old. And he doesn't add too too much to the clubhouse culturally."

Yeah, I mean this just confirms my suspicions that being an enthusiastic “young conservative” is a clear indicator of sociopathy.
