John Clayton was on of the classiest people I worked with at ESPN! I will miss him. RIP my friend!

LHP Rio Gomez was called up to Double-A Portland today and I’ve been thinking about every conversation I had with his father about it and I kind of keep losing it. Pedro just wanted Rio to get there, which would mean he has a chance. He’s there, hermano.

It seems trite to say, “I could have been Jacob Blake,” but my own life has been continually flashing before my eyes from the moment I saw those 7 shots escape that officer’s gun in Kenosha. Each time, the visual hits viscerally closer to home ... and to Seward County, Nebraska.

I recorded a few videos when thinking of how to respond to Drew Brees, I don’t take any of it back-I meant what I said-I removed the 1st video because I knew it be more about the headlines. I want people to understand how those of us struggling with what’s going on feel

Andrew Luck's decision to walk away reminds me of football game I saw 17 years ago, one that still thunders today. joeposnanski.substack.com/p/…

I can handle weather and mechanical delays. Even snow-bomb apocalyptic galactablizzards. Not sure I can handle hours of hearing people complain like they’re the only ones affected.

Would it really hurt everybody if we just closed everything up for a couple days? Turn on Netflix and binge watch...etc etc? Maybe finish up the old beer in the fridge? If there is any😊. Who’s in????

I love this John Barnes interview. Gonna keep this here as I know it’ll be relevant for years to come. People need to understand how important the media is in influencing society...have a watch. 🧐

If you really believe the media is fake news, now is your chance to eat all the lettuce.
BREAKING: Food regulators urge Americans not to eat any romaine lettuce because of new food poisoning outbreak.

True story: here in DC, where we have no voting representation in congress, there aren’t any voting booths. You just go to your polling place, open a door and scream into this huge void behind it. Feels a little weird but hey, “I voted” this morning. #DCStatehood

a throwback to politicians of the old days -you know, like 10 years ago .. #JohnMcCain on the campaign trail in '08 running against @BarackObama -stands up for decency when an audience member asks an absurd question. McCain speaks truth without vitriol.

The St. Louis crowd at the @PGAChampionship proved that it is possible to get a huge group of people together without yahoos, babba booey bros, and malevolent morons. Greatest crowds I’ve ever seen outside of @TheOpen. Cheers St. Louis.

So if Ramos “tackles” Salah on the ground & breaks his leg all of you are saying it’s dirty yet today you say it’s “not his intent”?! Makes no sense because Salah couldn’t embrace his fall due to how Ramos “completed” the tackle. Shocking to me how many don’t see it. #UCLFinal

Yeah, but it took Gareth Bale until his fifth touch of the game to do that. #UCLFinal 😳
