I’m trying to imagine the conversation present day Giles would have with 2005 Giles explaining the relief he has for Alex Rodriguez to be owner of the Timberwolves.

Christ, the Pirates* are fucking terrible. *except Paul Skenes

This seems like it should be bigger news

Yeah sure okay

Should be the Sonics’ title, imo

Absolutely brutal

Prediction: Rocco gets his pink slip a week from tomorrow if the twins do not get out of this tailspin this week.

A proper MLB All-Star Game ballot

Byron Buxton is good at baseball

Listing these people as “calmer heads” is quite a choice

Maybe the Twins should get Dobnak back up here for long relief since none of their starters can get a quality start anymore. Need to ease the burden of this bullpen.

The Twins have a .394 win percentage this season that’s badly inflated by a 13 game winning streak. They just got hot for two weeks then went back to being who they were. Don’t be fooled. (S/o @aarongleeman.bsky.social for the stat on today’s pod)

I spent the last two hours cleaning broken glass off my deck (the glass patio table was flipped overnight by the storm apparently), and I gotta say, I have had more fun Friday afternoons.

Tired: it’s not fair Florida teams win the Cup before Minnesota Wired: Maybe Minnesota should try not being horseshit at roster construction

Reuters is drunk

Hahahaha fuck you Oilers

@randball.bsky.social this was an amazing Reusse Monday podcast.

Ice in his veins

Not great! arstechnica.com/information-...

What if, now hear me out, we don’t act like morons when we lose a bet? Just a thought.

Just putting this out there: I am against the Wolves trading for Kevin Durant.

The Knicks plan of asking their competitors to interview their head coach is shockingly not working.

Just burn the USMNT to the ground. The whole program needs to be restarted from the ground up.

Nothing like mowing your lawn on a lovely June evening while listening to the Dazzle Man make the ballpark’s official scorer question his life choices.

Perfect patio evening for a Hamms and cigar

The Bucks, Cavs and Knicks, to the Thunder:

Thank god I never have to hear about him coming to the Vikings again.

Happy release day, @christopherhine.bsky.social! Excited to dig in!

A legend in every sense of the word.

I am out of words for how horrible this is.

Hard to argue against any of the selections here.

Man, so tragic. A couple of my favorite recurring characters on comedy TV from Joss. His ability to land a one liner was second to none.

I cannot stress this enough: Beckham and Friends blows
