🚨 BIG NEWS 🚨 @SFGate, now the West Coast's largest news site, is going on another HIRING SPREE. We're adding a: 🗳️ Senior Calif. Politics Reporter 📰 Breaking News Editor ✍️ News Reporter I wrote about why and what we're looking for here: sfgate.com/news/article/s…
Our #SFGiants columnist, @gggiants, has had season tickets for over 30 years. He’s been lucky enough to never miss a World Series game in SF in his lifetime. There's no one I trust more with this story than him (even if I think Jeff Kent is too high): sfgate.com/giants/article…
oh, hey, you guys, @pressgazette in the UK wrote about what we're doing at @SFGate. "Rather than trying to cover the entire state from San Francisco, SFGATE placed reporters directly in the places it’s writing about. Half the newsroom is remote." pressgazette.co.uk/publishers/reg…
Mostly irrelevant but still endearing Judge Charles Breyer fact: Breyer, who issued today’s ruling, is an avid bicyclist in S.F. and rolled up on a road bike to last year’s @4StarTheater screening of “Breaking Away” co-hosted by me & @Grant_Marek ⚖️ 🚴 💯 cc: @DennisChristo4

How Cal killed one of America's best sports bars "UC Berkeley has never seen the Bear’s Lair as the important piece of campus history it is, let alone a space that warrants anything more than an email exchange." By @Grant_Marek sfgate.com/food/article/c…
When that lottery ticket finally hits one of my first executive orders as Emperor of Cal Athletics will be to rebuild this bar and hire Mike Davie to keep vibes high at all times. sfgate.com/food/article/c…
Summary of why Cal Athletics has struggled: “We’re unclear about the goal-post incident you’re referring to,” Ratliff replied. “This may have been an incident that occurred before staff members currently here would have been aware of, or would have institutional memory of.”
Wrote about Bear's Lair, which has a storied history involving Robin Williams, Jerry Garcia and Aaron Rodgers' Bowl Cut that you likely don't know much about. That's because Cal has stood by and watched it die a long, slow, seemingly never-ending death👇 sfgate.com/food/article/c…
When it's not even 9am and you've already got a "one of the best articles you've ever written" in your mentions
One of the best articles you've ever written @Grant_Marek. As a California alum I loved going to the Bear's Lair at Lower Sproul before and after #CalFootball games in the 2000s. #GoBears How Cal killed one of America's best sports bars sfgate.com/food/article/c… via @SFGate
