Shout out to Aiden Mercer and the GEYA boys repping PA on ESPN right now! Ayesha stole the show though. So happy for this great family who loves baseball. Coach Brad’s mom Carol is like an extended member of our family. #LLWS #ESPN #12UBoys #midatlanticregional

Shout out to the (Hispanic) mowing crew who while mowing my neighbors yard saw me struggling with mine (getting over stomach flu) and came and mowed it for me. They also blew my clippings off the sidewalk. We tipped them. These hardworking selfless folks aren’t the enemy. They deserve better.

Pineapple, bacon, and sweet peppers. The best pizza combo there is.

Always. Today for me it’s been a Noah Kahan kind of day.

I will say the Christmas episode where Cousih Larry is trying to get home and can’t is an all-timer and deserves to be in a Christmas episode playlist.

Thanks for the heads up! I blocked him and reported the account. The reason: “He’s JD Vance”.

This is just furthering the Sam = Willy Wonka headcanon.

Nick Castellanos hit a Grand Slam on Father’s Day. I am prepared for just about anything from world peace to World War III.

@nickofferman.bsky.social I don’t know if The Great North is over (I hope not!), but I just wanted to thank you for the gift that is Beef Tobin. He is such a great parenting example. As my kids grow up I hope to have the same empathy and patience as he does.

Nicole Barnhart with the NWSL Pride prematch tee! Love this one 🏳️‍🌈

Image shows screenshot from NWSL release regarding League pride events - image within screenshot shows pride design for prematch shirt by Nicole Barnhart - design has heart hands and a soccer ball pattern in the center heart and a rainbow design around the outside of the hands.

Text of release in the screenshot says:
Each club will wear a new Pride shirt pre-match designed by one of their own: former keeper Nicole Barnhart. It was just last December that Barnhart retired as a member of the Washington Spirit, but she couldn't quite walk away from the game entirely.
When she's not creating NWSL merch, Barnhart serves as Washington's assistant goalkeeping coach.
The shirts Barnhart designed will be available for purchase at NWSLShop.com, and fans don't have to feel guilty about adding a new shirt into their collection. For every club-branded Pride merchandise sold, 10% of proceeds will go to a cause of that club's choice, and 10% of league-branded merchandise will benefit Athlete Ally, an organization dedicated to ensuring that every LGBTQIA+ person is welcome and safe in sports.

Yay Nicole! I played Little League baseball (she struck me out more than once) and later graduated high school with Nicole. She has always been a rock star, legend, and so nice. This is awesome!

He also interfered with Schwarber in the base path leading to him being awarded 3rd base and scoring on a sac fly.

@alexwinter.com I showed my older two kids Bill and Ted’s for the first time the other night. My daughter loved Napoleon and Joan. My 11-yo loved Genghis Khan destroying the sporting goods store. They didn’t love me saying every line along with the movie. “Don’t get sucked under, Bee-thoven.”

Amazing job Mick Abel! What a historic debut! #phillies #ringthebell

Jordan Romano looks so much better. That second strikeout today was so sick it made my 11-year-old laugh out loud. #phillies #ringthebell

Genuinely has anyone *ever* been owned so badly as a man who converts to a new religion as an adult and sorta makes it his whole thing only to see the literal head of that religion rebuke his entire deal and then they choose the NEXT head of the religion specifically because he doesn't like you
