Pete Crow-Armstrong is the only player in MLB history to: hit 40+ homers in a season steal 40+ bases in a season hit for the cycle win a Gold Glove win MVP unanimously ...over the course of his entire career (same season or not). He did it all in one year before turning 25.

Funny that I happened to stumble across this at 11:43 as I was debating finally going to bed.

For what reason would someone be shooting off a bunch of fireworks at 8 pm on Nov. 7?

Woke up in a good mood this morning when I realized that I shouldn’t have to spend approximately 47% of my television viewing hours watching political ads anymore.

So I get home and go to turn on a rare Pacers game that’s actually on TV for me, only to find out they have 11 PLAYERS OUT for this game! Including every starter and their top 3-4 bench players. Sigh

First Zubac and Nembhard, now this. Why can’t we have nice things?
Tyrese Haliburton has a mild strain in his left hamstring and is considered week-to-week, according to Coach Carlisle.

And just one game later …
I swear this is the most creative offense I’ve seen from Iowa in many, many years.

16 months. I’m so happy to have Hali back on the court.
A double-double for Tyrese Haliburton in his return to the floor 😏 23 PTS | 12 AST

Just reminiscing about Week 1 when all my guys were healthy and I started 1-0. Those were the glory days.

Guys I drafted in rounds 3, 5, 6, 7 and 14 are on IR, and my top two picks both missed games as well.

Oops, I forgot my round 9 pick is on IR as well. Too many to keep track of.

Finally finished Mad Men. Honestly, it felt like I was completing a chore by the end, but I had come too far to not finish. It was fine, but never captivated me like I had hoped. Maybe Don was too unlikable for me to really appreciate it.

I’m not typically a “fire everyone” type of guy, but I’m ready for the Colts to fire everyone. Starting with the GM. It’s unconscionable that they once again don’t even have a first-round pick to look forward to. Name another GM with Ballard’s track record that is still employed.

I couldn’t have been the only one watching this and seeing all that space and thinking the slot receiver should just run a quick inside route into the middle of the field.

Never in my life will I understand people who drink from a can and only crack open the tab a little ways.

Iowa beat Michigan, and Michigan beat Oklahoma, and Oklahoma beat Texas, so I guess Iowa should be ranked No. 1 now. Except Ohio State beat Iowa, so I guess Ohio State should be No. 1. Except Texas beat Ohio State, so Texas should be No. 1. Wait…..

Last night’s football victory was all fine and dandy, but Iowa has a chance for even greater glory today, as the top-seeded Hawkeyes look to claim a championship in the Pure Shot Fall League 4th-6th Grade Division. Let’s Go Hawks! #ImSoNervous

After falling behind 19-7, the Hawkeyes stormed back to claim a 10-point victory. Now we wait to find out our title-game opponent.

I guess I’m just never destined to see Iowa win a championship in football, men’s or women’s basketball, or Pure Shot Fall League 4th-6th Grade basketball. Sigh.
