I've been saying they should have done something like this for Shea and the Citi Field parking lot since before they tore Shea down. How did the Braves get this right and not the Mets? (Oh yeah, it's the Mets!).🙄
The parking lot where Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium used to stand, with the old diamond still outlined on the asphalt and the Hank Aaron Wall marking the 715 landing. The stadium came down in 1997. Aaron hit number 715 here on April 8, 1974. #HankAaron #Braves
Would you have wanted a seat that night?

Sure, it's tradition for the President to lay the wreath today, but maybe this year, a stand-in for a self-obsessed narcissist, who is in the process of building a giant arch to himself, that will obscure the view of Arlington National Cemetery, would've been a better choice.

Clyde had a funny a comment a moment ago during tonight's game. Breen mentioned the current longest-tenured NBA referee calling the game. Clyde responded, "Obviously, he done a great job - I've never heard of him."

Have there been a pair of 6-1 teams that have looked more different than the Bills and Vikings? – at Harbor Hills, NY

KAT's postgame interview was like listening to a TED talk. Give this a listen:
That was a tough one for Hofstra, which was the considerably better team for most of the game at Princeton tonight, and which was up 10 before the Tigers closed 15-3 over the final 1:21 two win by two.

Oh, the GOP got beat down so bad in the midterms that Trump and his party couldn't claim "cheating" or that it was "rigged?" What?! They're completely silent about that and about mail-in voting this time?! So all of those claims were all complete bullshit? Yeah, we thought so. 🤫

Given not only the stat below, but that Winnipeg was 2:40 away from a 10th straight loss, having lost their most recent game 7-0 and having lost their most recent four games by a combined 23-7, this has to be one of the most unlikely turnarounds in sports history.
Teams were 0-9652-0 in NHL history when trailing by 4+ goals in the final 3 minutes of the 3rd period entering Tuesday

Elon Musk spent over $450 million just to get his ass kicked. Steve Cohen knows the feeling.

Marty has run the New York City Marathon every year since 1980 and finished his 43rd tonight as the last man across the line. He said it would be his final one his mind is still willing, but his body isn’t.
A remarkable way to end the streak. Congratulations on 43 NYC Marathons, Marty. ❤️
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The runner’s name is James Thomas, not Marty. The person who filmed and spoke with him (@MickmickNYC) confirmed this. He is not the 90-year-old Marty Granoff (who ran his 6th NYC Marathon in 2026, last previously in 1983).
