Husband. #GirlDad. Love family, friends, baseball, wine, cheese, crackers, cooking, and good writing.
My 10 year old hugged me for 20 minutes while I cried in happiness. This is forever. Always ours. Thank you @Nationals and I love you all #Nats fans. More later. I'm gonna get emotional at home tonight. #StayInTheFight #WorldSeries #FINISHTHEFIGHT
Damn, man. Icon for late Gen X kids. I grew up an O's fan with Cal, Eddie, Boddicker, etc. But Ryno was on my short list of other fave players b/c 1. He was amazing 2. To a young "Ryan" his name was basically just like mine 😅 RIP
With great sadness, we share that Ryne Sandberg has passed away today.
I actually used to play a game with myself to see if I could get thru the day without anyone at work knowing or finding out. But I guess with social media now...
“Adults work on their birthday”— this always makes sense to me but I keep hearing about people who take their birthday off and expect to do so. This sounds insane to me. Are we 12 years old?
This is absolutely devastating news. I'm gutted 😭
To state the obvious: This is a really big blow and a really big deal. Sykora is a consensus top 100 prospect who was dicing everyone up in 2025. 1.79 ERA and 79 strikeouts in 45.1 MiLB innings this season.
Playmaker. What a start to this game for CJ. 2 for 2, HR, 1B, 2 R, 2 SB 😲😲 Now do that 5-6 nights a week please, not just for a couple weeks every other month! 😅😅 Think he took the lack of an AS nod personally? Certainly playing like it. Keep it going #Nats!!
For anyone who missed @ThomasBoswellWP's awesome speech yesterday afternoon at the Baseball Hall of Fame, here it is on our site: "For me, after all these years, baseball is about generations. We don’t play the game. We replay the memories — together." washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/07…
More than a game. BBWAA Career Excellence Award winner Thomas Boswell reflects on the power of sports and the beauty of baseball. #HOFWKND
Between artists who easily do impressions and worse, AI, death won't stop the show.
Matt Groening says he thinks ‘THE SIMPSONS’ will not end until one of the main cast members dies. #SDCC
When bottomless brunch disappears from our hood again, it's gonna be b/c ladies like these who think it's ok to take their mimosas to go and just start walking down the street. Few more entitled than a buzzed bruncher getting those last free drinks in. 🙄

Based on the wilfully ignorant insistence of many of these replies, I can only conclude that our country's public schools stopped teaching basic government and civics at least 20 years ago. My goodness, we are doomed.
The Federal Reserve is not in the executive branch.
Jesse and Celine would like to offer a suggestion...
Is there any city in the world better for walking all day than Paris?
Def should not be trading a pre-arb power lefty with the best pure stuff in the entire bullpen. That would be seriously insane unless #Nats get a MONSTER HAUL, and I doubt they would for a still unproven and rather inconsistent 25-year-old.
Ferrer is going to get us a haul. Robert Garcia got us 2 years of Nate Lowe (silver slugger) doesn’t matter what he’s done this year just how he was valued at time of trade. Ferrer is more projectable than Garcia and has similar numbers to what Garcia put up in 24
How can Liverpool afford all these signings? Ranking of net spend across the 5 completed seasons prior to this summer 2020/21-2024/25 (according to @TMuk_news) 1) Chelsea: -£770m 2) United: -£547m 3) Spurs: -£472m 4) Arsenal: -£468m 5) Newcastle: -£365m 6) West Ham: -£274m 7)…
Is "Horsepower" one of the most obsolete terms rooted in a time gone by that no layperson actually understands? I have no idea how fast horses go, let alone multipliers of horses. Why do we still use the term as a sales bullet point? Total nonsense 😅😅
