Movie: Nobody 2 (2025) - While not as good as the original, this campy action porn sequel has its moments.

I have the same look on my face as JT Miller when I’m watching the JT Miller led Rangers.

Also, those Rangers sweaters are weak. #NYR

#Pinball league quarterfinals had us as the fifth seed playing the fourth seed at a neutral venue.

It was a back & forth affair that came down to the final game when we got Max’d*

Beltran will probably get in just b/c he was at 70% last cycle & they’re not going to want to pitch a shutout. But that’s it this time around.
The 2026 Baseball Hall of Fame Ballot as announced moments ago by @baseballhall.org (baseballhall.org/news/2026-bb...). Results will be announced Jan. 20th. Game on!

Week 10 of the #pinball league had us on the road in a must win situation.

We were tied after two rounds before finally taking control and sweeping the final two to secure our place in the playoffs with a 12-4 victory.

I was unlucky going 0-1.

Finished the season at 7-3 and are the fifth seed.

What did you do at work today? #Pinball 🦈

Funny…

I spent the last two afternoons on the UWS of Manhattan and surprisingly there were no moving trucks.

Same for this evening in FiDi.

I guess there’s a backlog due to overwhelming demand.

Movie: The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) - The sleek retro set design and CGI effects couldn’t hide the story that was uninspired & predictable.

Week 9 of the #pinball league had us at home against a team we’re chasing in the standings.

It came down to the final round where we needed to win both games. We came up one short for a 9-7 defeat.

I sucked, going 0-2.

The loss dropped us down to 6th place, making the final week a must win.

I believe in Mayor Mamdani. #NYC
Remembering that night in the not so distant past when the band played a show in Santiago, Chile 🇨🇱 on November 4, 2008—an Election Day (like today) back in the States. A memorable encore ensued with a rousing version of “I Believe.” 🗳️

The #Jets are accumulating a bunch of high picks they’re going to screw up over the next couple of drafts.
