I was going to post four pictures of Johnny Cash albums, but then I got "suckin' on chili dogs" stuck in my head, which kinda proves the original point.
Has there ever been a work called "American ____[anything]____" that isn't bad and embarrassing?

@brianmfloyd.bsky.social didn’t have a mixer to shred the pork shoulder, so I used a bowl and closed tongs and it’s … even better?

Bananas ending to Sixers - Warriors, poor young Golden State fan can't believe it

Ok so this Sixers game sucks & I sympathize so much with little man here, but him getting trash talked by his little friend is fucking hilarious.

The Giants hired Ron Washington as an infield coach, which means it's a great time to share the article where he almost murdered Sam Blum with infield drills. www.nytimes.com/athletic/634...
Ron Washington ran me through his famous infield drills. It was ... incredibly hard

every day the world reveals something beautiful to me that i will never possess
I have a photo of Chuck Connors (in a Dodgers uniform) that is autographed by Satchel Paige. Paige's own photo was on the reverse but his eyesight was failing and he signed the wrong side. I'm pretty sure it's the only picture of the Rifleman autographed by Satchel Paige.

The most incredible part is she's British and read the audiobook, but just kept going when it got to the part with grandma at Thanksgiving.
OK! SO! I have made the ultimate illustration of this.

This is the actual album I listened to the most in 2025. Found it at a random sale, picked it up without knowing a thing, and I'm obsessed. A funky, yacht rock Rush? Walter Fagen joining the Doobies instead of Michael McDonald? Whatever, the first side is flawless.

Lotta folks are going to focus on the market being too steep for the Giants. I’m as cynical as the next guy, but I read that as “We didn’t have him being worth that much. For that much, we’ll get a guy we know better” not that $30 million was too much
Cody Ponce is going to Toronto on a 3-year, $30 million deal that crushed industry estimates, via @ken-rosenthal.bsky.social . Giants were involved but market got beyond them. Jays moved quickly to replace Chris Bassitt and Max Scherzer with Dylan Cease and Ponce. Will one or both be SF-bound now? 🤔

This happened with the Tony Hawk 1/2 remaster on the Switch. There were a couple of levels where you suddenly a balding skater in his 40s, listening to the Judgement Night soundtrack and barely able to stay on the board.
HBOMax has started showing a 'remastered' 4K Mad Men and they’ve messed things up so during Roger’s oyster vomit scene you can now see the crew men with the vomit hose on the right

Giants should take a chance on a former Cardinals closer, see if he can start. Not sure what the downside would be.
Apparently someone thinks Ryan Helsley can start? I'm always open to being proved wrong but he is a very, very different kind of pitcher than a lot of guys who have made this work before
Can Ryan Helsley Actually Start, or Are We Just Not Eating Enough Protein?
In the future, all relief pitchers will be starting pitchers for 15 minutes, twice: First as failure, then as tragedy.
