A large orange cat sleeping on a red Snoopy blanket laying on the floor
As correctly predicted, he no longer wants to nap behind the drapes and is still refusing cat beds. He's had a rough week health-wise, so if he wants to lay on a fluffy blanket thrown on the floor, that's what he gets.
*correction: Cecconi went into the 8th, not the 9th
In the last few years, Williams, Cecconi and Messick have all taken no hit bids into the 9th, Cantillo took a perfect bid into the 7th, and Bibee had a 10 K CGSO.
All hail The Pitching Factory™ 🙌

Guardians manager Stephen Vogt played quite the prank on Orioles manager (and his former right-hand man) Craig Albernaz in Cleveland today.
When Albernaz went into visitor’s manager’s office, the desks and chairs were all kids-sized. Also, Spider-Man shower curtain, Bluey stuff.
Nothing is more annoying in sports than seeing someone that you do not respect have any amount of success.
"Curling for TikTok" is the perfect analogy with the way it's being broadcast. I want it to succeed but I feel like it's an uphill battle.
The joke during spring training was if Vogt gets ejected this season, he can put on Arnerich's jersey to keep managing the game without anyone knowing.
In addition to the sunshine and baseball goodness today, I got carded 💁♀️
You guys... I think we found our lineup.

Camden Yards was the new standard at the time. I've heard before that park had a large impact on how ours was constructed.
I think so.
I'm in the upper deck today and the railing up here is black. I can see the railings around the camera bays beyond the dugouts are still green, but those are the only green ones I noticed.
Top photo: new blue seats at Progressive Field surrounding green facades of retired players. Bottom photo: blue seats and signs above a green outfield wall.
Riddle me this, Batman... if the renovations are done and everything is blue, why are the player facades in the upper deck and the walls around the warning track still green?

Starter jacket or Vogt coat?
A pro league is cool, and I want to see more, but the best way to increase interest worldwide is to broadcast existing international competitions IMO.
Side note: Nik Edin yelling down the ice in English is so disorienting 😂
Okay, I'm done talking about it for good. ✌️

After watching a few draws on ESPN+, I don't understand how Rock League will bring in new curling fans. It jumps between all three sheets too frequently to get a good grasp of how any of the three games are developing. Plus several rules are different to make it snappier/faster for TV.

I wasn't gonna talk about curling anymore, but one last thing before I stop.
Despite the improvements that are needed (better cameras, camera operators, directors, on-screen graphics), I'm intrigued by Rock League. I liked the mens/womens/mixed teams all competing together. However...

Armageddon is terrible, but it's not the worst Ben Affleck movie that exists.
I just decided going in that I wasn't gonna talk about it on here anymore 😅
There were games at noon and 3:30pm already, one of which featured my favorite curler... what do you think I was doing all day? 😂
I love everyone being handed massive blocks of cheese 😂🥌🇸🇪
SWEDEN FOR GOLD!!
Number 8 for Team Edin! If this is the last go round for them (I hope it's not), what a way to go! #wmcc 🥌🇸🇪
I hope Bob gets well soon. It's not the same when he's not there. 🙏

One of Shuster's boys was crying 💔
Someone asked me yesterday why I was watching the last ends of the men's curling semifinal after the Guardians game if I wasn't betting on it. Asked me twice. I'm sorry that I have niche interests that don't require betting for me to enjoy?
USA v Scotland bronze medal game about to start! #wmcc 🥌🇺🇸
Most definitely!
Nothing like getting home after a full day of walking downtown just to realize you now have a blood blister on the bottom of your big toe 🤦♀️

Excellent day for me! #wmcc #ForTheLand #GuardsBall
