Steve Kerr references Dream Team players coming together to win gold during DNC speech: “Now imagine what we could do with all 330 million of us playing on the same team.” He did NOT specify whether Jayson Tatum could participate with the other 329,999,999 Americans

This is an insult to stutterers, as is "not judge him by too high a standard." (Biden has a law degree!) When I interviewed him 5 years ago he did not exhibit the symptoms he's exhibiting right now. His defenders know this theatlantic.com/politics/arc…

Sen. Chris Coons: “We need to remember President Biden for 30 years has been someone who does stutter, and who occasionally misspeaks in small ways and not judge him by too high a standard. He's been the most consequential president in my lifetime.”

It's been a couple of years since I actually wrote about sports and not books, but @GaryDzen keeps taking my emails for some reason, so today for @BostonDotCom I wrote about what the MVP case for Jayson Tatum would look like. boston.com/sports/boston-cel…
Jayson Tatum won't be NBA MVP, but here's what that argument looks like

Jayson Tatum won't be NBA MVP, but here's what that argument looks like

Here's the case for the Celtics superstar to win MVP over Embiid, Jokić, or Antetokounmpo, should anyone want to make it.

Readers recommended @GaryDzen a few Boston-area breweries that still make barrel-aged beers. Here are some of their suggestions ⤵️ trib.al/8vCEKDv

There are still barrel-aged beers out there. These are the ones readers like. - The Boston Globe

While the decline in barrel-aged beers in the Boston area is very real, these breweries are still crafting some good ones.

A reader posed the question, so our beer writer went out in search of an answer. The bottom line? They are indeed much harder to come by. Here’s why.

One more thing: Received a lot of (mostly) nice notes about this story. There ARE still barrel-aged beers being made locally, feel free to flag your favorites for a follow-up piece I'm planning to write this week.

How exactly does Allagash, a company known for eschewing trends, approach brewing its first year-round IPA? To start, they make it a company-wide project.

Thanks to founder Alden Booth for chatting with me about 2.5 decades of brewing beer, serving weird local food, and a notable visit from television host Anthony Bourdain.
