I saw John Wick 3 in DC after a 3 drink dinner with my wife when she went to do library conference stuff. Seeing that movie with a buzz was perfect. Then I tried getting a Lyft the movie let out, when the theater was next door to an arena where an Arianna Grande concert had just finished.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?
Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

The one thing I don’t get is when the Mets are accused of making Wilponian moves, when the Wilpons absolutely would have given Alonso and Díaz the contracts they wanted for sentimental reasons, and then made no moves to upgrade the team around the margins.

There are no bad ideas in brainstorming but, uh, I’d greatly prefer they not do this.

I think one reason my reaction may be different is that I’m old. I’m 46 years old. I had my heart broken when Straw went to LA when I was 11, but I’ve dealt with this over 36 years. I’m less sensitive to it now. Players move on. I don’t.

I’m not sure how Mets fans saw what happened with the coaching staff in October and thought that Stearns was just going to run it back with this core. That was the sign that big changes were coming. And coming off of a collapse, I’d argue that big changes were needed!

I loved Pete. I’ll be sad to see him in orange and black and not orange and blue. But it was time for them to shake up the roster. They’ve had this core in place for five years and made the playoffs twice. It was time for both sides to move on.

I like Díaz a lot and am sad to see him go. That said, he wasn’t worth 3 years and $60m three years ago, so it stands to reason that he’s probably not worth 3 years and $69m now. Maybe I’m wrong about that.

Jeff Kent had a good career but he was like the 5th or 6th best candidate on this ballot. It’s also strange because I don’t think any of his peers actually liked him?

I own Psicosis’ match-worn mask from when he wrestled Rey Mysterio at the ECW Arena in October 1995. I have it because I gave him my Devils jersey in exchange for it.
What is the most "obscure" piece of sports memorabilia that you own? Why do you have it?

I have no strong opinions on this. It’s probably fine. It might be better than fine. It might be worse than fine. My life will (hopefully) continue on either way.

I know “not my money” but I’m also not sure I’d want to see what years 6 and 7 of this deal looks like.
NEWS: The Blue Jays are signing Dylan Cease to a seven-year, $210 million contract, sources tell The Athletic.
It's the largest pitching contract in franchise history.
