I love that you rightfully sent out a thing praising Craig Calcaterra while using "the MLB" almost simultaneously. The duality of man!

A boy eating a corn dog with boys of french fries covered with sweet chili sauce

We discovered how incredible Korean corn dogs are last week. The poor french fries in the batter and cover with sweet Korean chili sauce. My son and I agreed we would happily get one every single game if sold here, and so much more practical than all these monstrosities.

I was driving home from work (I was stopped at the red light on West Seventh to turn left by Xcel to go down to Shepard Road), and heard Mary Lucia say she was going to play a new Bruno Mars collaboration. Then I first heard Uptown Funk. So catchy an good that I still remember that exact moment.

And I just stumbled upon this book at the Starfield Library in Seoul. He's everywhere!

KT Wiz hold on for an 11-7 victory. First of many Twins losses I will attend in 2026.

Woo Kyu-min enters with bases loaded and nobody out and a run already in. He gets Austin Dean to ground to third (force at third, runner from third retreated safely on throw home).

Kyu-min removed, and I must begrudgingly acknowledge Manfred-3-batter-minimum doesn't suck.

Welcome to the KBO, Sam Hilliard. 3-for-4 with a homerun (and one defensive misplay because there is randomly a strip of grass beyond the warning track and he got screwed up on a fly ball to the wall). He has now been removed for a defensive replacement going to bottom of the seventh.

Fireworks exploding over the scoreboard at Jamsil Baseball Field

First Twins game of 2026, and they allowed 6 runs in the top of the first inning. (Sure, it's the LG Twins rather than Minnesota, but I'm expecting a similar experience this season at Target Field.)

As the only team in the area unwilling to sign onto the blandest of corporate statements (a passive "we wish the things preventing people from spending money would stop") about the invasion in January, the onfield product (which will be mind-numbingly boring) is the least of the problems.

In your defense, I don't think we had met Michael Steintorf yet

After bringing the 11-year-old to see The Baseball Project at the Fine Line on his birthday, we've brought the 8-year-old to see Michael Shannon & Jason Narducy play Life's Rich Pageant at First Ave in a blizzard #rem

First time I've ever seen a weather forecast for an indoor concert I'm attending

How close is Traer to River City?

I haven't lived in DC for 19+ years, but i still know the Eastern Motors jingle(where your jobs' your credit!).

Also, from the Twin Cities, there is All American Recreation, all we sell is fun!

Gah... all the *chants*

Love it! Had a great day on the away end with all the Imps a couple years ago in Reading. My son (Lincoln) love all the changes using his name (especially The Lincoln Boys making all the noise everywhere we go!)

I wrote on my very old blog about an idiotic theory that (future Trump lawyer) John Dowd shared while visiting one of my undergraduate classes, and it somehow made its way into a newspaper article that included react quotes from Bud Selig and George Steinbrenner

Paternal: started working at the First National Bank of Omaha as a teller while in high school, worked his way all the way up to being on the Board of Directors

Maternal: firefighter

It's ten minutes later and the vibe is still amazing. People are just stunned.

And the game ended early because they broke the backboard on an alley oop. Unreal! Not like when I was here.

First time in the Richfield High School gymnasium since the party the night I graduated

Brought the kids two years ago to see them on Des Moines and had a great time. I snagged the presale tickets again because I know they would be disappointed if we missed out.

(I'm a baseball purist who could barely tolerate Saints games before they became AAA affiliate, and I had a great time.)

It's crazy to make a decision so mindbogglingly poor that even Jim Souhan can properly dunk on you
