If you're a big enough baseball fan, you have The Game That Got Away. On May 10, 2013, I went to see Iron Man 3 with a friend, thinking I'd have time to catch the Cards game at a bar afterwards. Got to the bar and the game was over. Miller allowed a leadoff single, then retired 27 in a row.
The #Cubs' two-year contract with Shelby Miller is now official:

Naked Gun. Yes, I'm going with the first sequel here. I discovered it first. I love the entire series, though. My rankings: Naked Gun; The Smell of Fear; Police Squad; the reboot; The Final insult. But it's an arbitrary ranking. Sit me down and make me watch all of them. Please.

People need to stop saying “they should be ashamed.” These are the people who’ve defended a treasonous insurrection, who’ve helped to conceal a massive pedophilia ring. They have no shame. Anything that ignores the reality of the situation just enables them.

Your Super Bowl references are lost on me; I'm watching the 1957 Elia Kazan masterpiece A Face in the Crowd, featuring an utterly electrifying Andy Griffith in a scathing attack on corruptibility and the cult of celebrity.

Politics aside...do we really want our government run by people who only eat yogurt at Super Bowl parties? Would you like a glass of tap water with that, sir? Perhaps a single wheat crisp?
RFK Jr on what he'll eat during the Super Bowl: "I am on a carnivore diet so I just eat meat and ferments, and I'm very happy with that. So I'm probably going to have yogurt."

So…his goal is to make it impossible for people who don’t currently own a home to purchase a home? Once a landlord, always a landlord.
Trump: "People that own their homes -- we're gonna keep them wealthy. We're gonna keep those prices up. We're not gonna destroy the value of their homes so that somebody who didn't work very hard can buy a home."

Rand Paul is still a thing? And he’s starting to maybe catch up to what’s been going on since long before I forgot about him?
Rand Paul: "After seeing this, if you call this a good shooting you aren't watching the video. This was a real tragedy and a mistake. The man had been disarmed and then shot 10 times ... if we say things that are obviously not true, the situation is going to get worse."

I mean…yeah, someone definitely sold out to get this movie made.
Trump: "MELANIA, the Movie, is a MUST WATCH. Get your tickets today — Selling out, FAST!"

I…agree? You will find meaning if you do the exact opposite of what the Republicans are doing.
JD Vance: "To our fellow Americans we say, you're never gonna find great meaning in a cubicle or in front of a computer screen. But you will find great meaning if you dedicate yourself to the creation and sustenance of human life."

“I don’t say the thing that I just said in the first half of this sentence.” Oh okay.
Trump: "I should've gotten the Nobel Prize for each war, but I don't say that. I saved millions & millions of people. And don't let anybody tell you Norway doesn't control the shots, ok? It's in Norway. It's a joke. They lost such prestige. That's why I have such respect for what Maria did."

You know he’s only saying that because someone had to say it to him. Five bucks says he read it and pronounced the “w.”
Trump: "It's actually a legal definition -- 'whole milk.' And it's whole with a W for those of you that have a problem."

That’s my Congresswoman! [Sigh]
Honestly she’s probably just pissed that her constituents put up a massive billboard about her last week.

Well that’s very Hitlerian of him.
ROGERS: Do you see any checks on your power on the world stage?
TRUMP: Yeah. There's one thing. My own morality. My own mind. That's the only thing that can stop me.
KANNO-YOUNGS: Not international law?
TRUMP: I don't need international law. I'm not looking to hurt people.

To be fair, thinking of Dijon on a hotdog makes me queasy. You should slather that thing in ketchup. (As a Cardinals fan, yes, I'll eat gross food to piss off Cubs fans. Obama's greatest sin is being a White Sox fan, on this we can all agree.)
Whether it’s Donald Trump demanding Greenland from Denmark or Barack Obama asking for Dijon mustard from a hotdog vendor, both presidents made some highly unusual requests.

The problem is, conservatives don't believe in CNN. It isn't real. This doesn't exist. You aren't watching this or reading my comments about it.
CNN put together a montage of Trump being vocally against regime change before he fell in love with it

So, so, so, so many choices here. But I'll stick with a classic and go with Chuck Berry's entire catalogue. I feel bad listening to him, but I still listen to him, because goddamn.

Hot take: I think part of what led to Trump's '24 election was people still living in a fantasy. These guys will not be held accountable. Trump was impeached twice; nothing came of it. The rules have changed. If you're playing by the old rules, you're gonna lose. The Dems need to catch up. Quick.
