Server downstairs - who looked a little like Method Man with a shaved head - somehow took one look at me and figured out I was from the Best Coast. He spent the rest of breakfast clowning me. This place is great

Today's boomer complaint: stop infusing ice water with stuff, hotel buffet operators. Don't no one want their ice water tasting like orange peel, cucumbers or any other fruit and vegetable foolishness ✌🏾

Even tho Luthor's team went 0-16 that year, dude assembled a helluva roster of rogues. Solomon Grundy, Gorilla Grodd, Giganta, Cheetah, Sinestro and Black Manta were no joke
Too bad Lex Luthor isn't the owner, he would actually spend money on the on field product for you guys.

I'm not happy about my #athletics moving to Las Vegas, but the stadium looking like the Legion of Doom's headquarters is a small step towards winning me over

I have friends and family members who, for nearly 30 years, have asked me to explain legal matters. I have stopped doing this with Supreme Court rulings because it’s all made up and the only answer is “they’re doing this because they’re Republicans and they want to advance Republican priorities.”

It is impossible to rock a sweater vest. Don't even try. Your feeble attempts to rock them are futile.
New York is wild, bruh. Out at dinner and dudes my age rocking sweater vests. I know it's 32°F (0°C) out here, but come on. Have some goddam dignity

My right shoulder - which is essentially spaghetti after throwing BP to the Bird for 10 years

Just flew out of JFK 20 minutes ago. Can't wait to get back to rainy (but warmer) Seattle. Envious of San Diegans always.

Pshh. I paid $[REDACTED] the last time I had to buy a blanket at the Oakland Coliseum during a night game. Can only imagine what Biden's inflation finna cost me tonight

Attention MLB fans — especially BlueJays and Dodgers fans.
Bob Costas and Tom Verducci will have a two-hour special on MLB Network breaking down all the key moments of the 2025 World Series Game 7.
The show debuts on Dec. 11 at 7 p.m. ET on MLB Network. Should be good.

Once Harold Baines and Lee Smith got in - in the ostensibly enlightened 21st century! - it was time to just let in everybody with a reasonable peak and cachet with the fans ✌🏾
As Hall of Fame standards change, voters must recalibrate with them. Column: www.nytimes.com/athletic/686...

Will more players with shorter career peaks find their way into Cooperstown over the next few years?

I mentioned this on a podcast or a TV hit in Las Vegas or somewhere, but if I’m #athletics and could get Eugenio Suarez for 2/$45M, I’d do it. 81 games in a minor league launching pad plays, baby

Not crazy about it, but the price for what would ostensibly be a one-year deal couldn’t possibly be too steep. #athletics need a bridge to that Arnold/Morales/Perkins/Jump rotation and they could do worse

These exclusive airport "clubs" really highlight the cruelty of this country and how it delineates between the haves and have nots. But, I have a one-day pass from my job that I didn't use in DC, so if you unwashed bums will excuse me...
