Drop whatever you're doing, folks We're kicking off this Chaos Tuesday™ with a new bracket of the most embarrassing Yankees moments of the Aaron Boone era. There are 32 embarrassments coming from across 4 regions: October Nightmares, Boone's Brain, The Front Office, and Other Insanity That Sounds Made Up. Be sure to vote early and often as we narrow things down to identify the single greatest embarrassment of the Boone era! We may not have the ALCS or the World Series this year, but at least we'll always have Chaos Tuesday. (First-round polls are in the replies below.)

I can’t stop watching this
Absolutely nuts first-person POV showing the arm strength of a big league catcher. Not even one of the *elite* big league catcher arms, but just a mainstream one. This is an absolute LASER BEAM down to second!

This epidemic of managers being scared to ride their starting pitcher at fucking all has to end. How many times do we have to watch a reliever come in with a can of gasoline in the middle innings? Tom Kelly letting Jack Morris go 10 feels like an Old Testament story now.

Crush the arts (Kennedy Center), destroy the civil service (DOGE), control elections (gestures broadly), dismantle the press (gestures more broadly), decimate science (NIH), and demolish education (DeptEd). The authoritarian playbook.

Toronto is calling up outfielder Rudy Martin Jr., who is expected to make his debut after 12 years in the minors, a source tells ESPN. Martin, 30, was taken in the 25th round of the draft -- which doesn't exist anymore -- in 2014. Played indy ball, Mexican League and, now, MLB.

Hi running friends. I have some news. I got word from my doctor yesterday that my marathoning days are over. I can run 5Ks if I can tolerate the pain of not having cartilage at the top of my knee. /1

I’m going through the grieving process right now and I’ll rally next week. I still had a bunch of goals and dreams to complete with Wheelie Punk, but those will go unfulfilled.

I won’t be posting runs here anymore, as I won’t be running much anymore. I’ll find something new to do.
