A’s players at the Kings game sitting courtside and getting a lot of much deserved love is wild. 2025 in baseball is going to be nuts.

It is my sworn duty before the first DC storm of the winter to reshare this piece by @clintonyates.bsky.social for WaPo in 2014. wapo.st/4j4YF7W

celebrating east coast NYE while on west coast time then hitting the sack >>>>

bowl games should be able to choose their own overtime rules. it could be sudden death, a kicking contest, oklahoma drill at the 50, whatever they want

✅ BTS of Caitlin Clark's season. ✅ Mystery behind greatest bracket ever ✅ How do you survive a two-mile fall? Of our 248 eps, some were extra special. Check out our favorite stories of 2024. Spotify list below. Apple links in thread. @clintonyates spoti.fi/4gCQY72

If I could listen to only one podcast episode for the rest of my life, it might be this one about Rickey Henderson’s final pro season. It was in an independent league in California. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/3...

RIP Rickey Henderson.

strongly considering buying a PS5 just to play Outlaws.

yo I dont know who sent us a blanket with a huge picture of us with the baby, but you are hilarious.

This women's Euros selection show starting off with a nice little performance. This already feels more fun than almost any draw I've watched in years.

Rihanna’s We Found Love is her best song. stop lying to yourselves.

That NOB font size looks proper again, no? That's my biggest takeaway today.

it’s not that I think Belichick’s plan at UNC is a bad idea, I just think it’s a mediocre one that will additionally be difficult to draw as many athletes as one might think.

have I lost my mind or is the concept of a major chain hotel claiming they dont take walk-ins not completely insane?

I am straight up emotional about Dave Parker and Dick Allen making it into Cooperstown. I’m so glad The Cobra gets to feel the love while he’s still with us.

Gonna be a massive college football day on here, so here’s a great starter pack of accounts who will be posting about the games for those looking to follow along today 👇 go.bsky.app/HmAYTAQ

Ok that explains the *deluge* of new followers today ty to Mina and @sickoscommittee.org for this 😂

so…the WNBA botched the Toronto franchise name rollout and* the logo is mid as hell? That league, man. Literally cant get out of its own way when they’ve already got the players and fans to be great.

Pick a TV show, keep one actor, the rest are Muppets: Frasier Niles is absolutely the lone human

when did “apart” become the most misused word I read every day?

the sports jerseys in this Yacht Rock doc are incredible

This is a great article. I miss Bernie Mac so goddamn much.

when clinton yates writes something, read it. this is a great article on so many levels, and now i need to go rewatch mr 3000

STAN ROSS!

I love this movie.

i love reading about baseball from clinton’s perspective. this was such an interesting connection.

column: this year marks the 20th anniversary of the late Bernie Mac’s ‘Mr. 3000’ movie. With Cooperstown ballots in the news ahead of the Winter Meetings next week, it feels oddly relevant.

so I watched the first three episodes of #SkeletonCrew. god, these costumes are glorious.

the new iPhone update phone record system is about as solid as any journalist could have asked for. Easy file transferability, too. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

PARADE ELLIE

screeners for #SkeletonCrew arrived in style today

god I love local news in los angeles. this crew is live from a Honey Baked Ham line out the door.
