Now thinking that @jasonkirk.fyi could do Mike Johnson quotes in Bobby Petrino voice and it would only make them marginally creepier

JOHNSON: “.. The pain register is about to hit level 10.”

The correct messages:

Bottles clinking are creepy

Baseball uniforms and makeup are a surprisingly good match

The Riffs are so damn cool

Lynne Thigpen’s voice is perfection

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”

It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”

America... boy, I dunno.

Prayers up for @jaysonst.bsky.social who must somehow write his magnificent column about this game

Dave it was a Monday, you could’ve done the past month’s worth in just extra innings time

Sure, Will Klein threw more than double the pitches he’s ever thrown in an mlb game tonight, but I just reorganized my freezer, so who’s really the hero here

Ok, starting to drive up from San Diego right now, I should be ready to pitch by the 23rd

Can we give some props to Dieter Ruhle, who has been absolutely stellar on that organ throughout this entire game?

Ties mlb record for any game, regular season or postseason. New postseason record. Insane.

Is it just me or does it lean heavily on a version of that “Keep On Truckin” sample that was used for “Lights Camera Action” by Mr Cheeks?

Living in San Diego and finding the greatest soft drink Wisconsin has ever produced at the ding-dang DOLLAR TREE made me feel like that Hugh Jackman in the Tree of Life or whatever gif

$1.25 per bottle. A steal. I go in with two giant shopping bags, and walk out with two dozen root beers and cream sodas.

There is one place in San Diego that even semi-consistently stocks my favorite soda, the glorious Sprecher Root Beer.

It’s the Dollar Tree near where I live. Unreal.
