If you watch TV in 2025, you're giving money to the people who are ruining this country, there is also no way around that.

I’m currently at a pop culture convention with 120k+ attendees where there’s Game of Thrones stuff literally everywhere, and the Marvel TV panel was so overpacked they had to shut down the floor. But I will agree people do not talk about Succession quite as often as when it was airing every week.

Nobody really talks about Succession anymore. Or Game of Thrones. Sort of confirms my thesis that, with rare exceptions, television does not really matter.

How can you not be romantic about baseball?

I can't stop crying for the Game Day/Stadium Ops employee (s) who A) decided to do a salmon run in the 15th inning and B) decided that Humpy had to win.

As a former Game Day Ops intern, I always wanted to feel like something that I did affected the game, and this crew did it.

It's all a big game and only 10 people know all the rules.

I am DYING to know how long the Mariners stadium gameday operations people have had “do a salmon race but this time humpy wins” up their sleeve as a break glass in case of emergency fire-up-the-crowd play

Did the Mariners finally win ALDS Game 5 because of Humpy the Salmon?

Humpy won his first ever Salmon Run Friday night -- just before the Mariners secured a win and advanced to the ALCS.

Yeah, you have Dave Flemming and I have his brother, Will on Red Sox radio! He's the voice of summer for me.

I think Humpy should join the front lines in Portland after the season.

It was a snarky response from me, I just LOATHE national broadcasters, and even some local TV broadcast teams.

Radio, however, never lets me down.

Can we stop forcing Cal Raleigh to do post game interviews? The dude is absolutely exhausted, and won't be rested until December, no matter what happens.
