Great story.

This is one of my favorite things ever. Not since I was invited to become “One of the Elites” via an anonymous email, have I been this tickled by a spam attempt.
I’m gonna pretend I didn’t see this, but then definitely bring it up to my therapist.
The MLB-approved statement the teams’ broadcasters are reading about Jackie Robinson Day is an embarrassment. Jackie didn’t face “adversity” — he faced loud, violent, entrenched racism. He integrated baseball & saved it from collapsing in on itself. Say that.
Some of my favorite card art pieces of Jackie on his day. #jackie Credit to: Brad Davis, Micah Johnson, Chuck Styles, and Daniel Sulzberg

Happy Effa Manley Day!
His placemat also came with crayons and a maze on the back!!!
Should we all introduce our baseball allegiances for a quick refresher? No explanation.
1) Rob Manfred Hates Baseball
2) Fred Killed Rube
3) No one cares about pace of play
4) Market your players
Man, I can’t believe this is actually happening. We are becoming everything we are supposed to be against. Cruelty isn’t strength, ignorance isn’t power, and the people who scream the loudest are ALWAYS the weakest. A country of cowards, frauds, and little boys’ whose Daddies didn’t love them.
1954 Bowman Orestes Minnie Miñoso baseball card
The first of the global 400/400 guys was, of course, Orestes Minnie Miñoso. He had at least 404 HR and 408 SB to go along with his 4563 hits. Players like him are a big reason why I love doing this research.
“Foreign asset tampers with US Elections”
Fixed it for you…
Have you even been to an airport in the US if you haven’t heard a grown man try to pick up an adult woman by telling her about how he won a Madden game last night against a child from Finland…?
I could argue that no, no you have not. And for the record, he was the Bills.
There isn’t enough money on earth to get me to spend money at this establishment. Where we spend our money is the only freedom we have left. Target can Circuit City itself.
“There is a direct line, though not all can see it, from this kind of “Har Har, girls are the worst!” to misogyny in the workplace, violence against women, and the lack of equality for women and girls around the world.”
@bubblegumpopart.bsky.social available…question mark…?
Love this one very much!!!
The thing about being a Traitor in Wisconsin is that slightly more than half the state doesn’t care as long as you have the skin color they like. RJ here, admitted to passing fake electoral ballots, and won against a very capable young black man…so to answer your question: Racism.
Ron Johnson is a traitor, so naturally he is opposed to the First Amendment.
Once again, Ron Johnson is a traitor and a self-admitted traitor at that. Did I mention that he is also a Russian asset? Well he is. That’s why he blames the victims.
We are getting to a point where I think you spend more time crafting these Pro-Fascism headlines than you do writing anything. Am I close? Because this headline is a masterclass in “Fascism isn’t that bad guys, we’re just all going to die.”
Here’s a periodic reminder that MLB is full of shit. There aren’t rich teams and poor teams … just rich owners who spend on their teams and rich owners who don’t. And the latter will do anything they can to distract you from this fundamental truth.
Ron Johnson is a known and admitted traitor of the United States. His opinion on any matter should be treated as if he is a Russian asset…because he is.

Don’t forget that Brett Favre is the founder, creator, and CEO of the unsolicited D—- pic.

You took a lot of words to not say “Abolish ICE”.
Abolish ICE.
See. It’s not hard.
Read the room.
To be fair, Ron Johnson has never been a fan of laws.
He looks like a Batman villain that got one comics run in issue like 874, “Yellow Jacket, Esq.”. Bruce Wayne dispatched him by ripping off his toupee in public. He was not a popular character…
