Did some playing around with the end of season numbers. The bad part isn’t Joey Ortiz being second to last. The bad part is being surprised he’s *only* second to last.

WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU THROW HOME

…so what’s the plan for Saturday?

4 straight Tush Pushes is so funny

Kinda want this series to go five, kinda want this game wrapped up ASAP so I can watch the Brewers without any outside noise

I get Alyssa Thomas is really good, and I get you want to try to attack Meg on defense.

Kah has to be the one with the ball in her hands

I would trust Kah Copper with my life. In any situation. If I needed a 50 yard field goal to save my life I feel like she’d find a way to get it done for me

…Have Cubs fans ever considered the home run ball they’re throwing back would probably be enough to cover the cost of a bleacher seat if they sold it instead?

Hey,

I just now realized they got rid of the landing strip at Comerica

I’m not even saying it’s the definite wrong choice, it’s just hilarious how extreme it always seems to backfire

I love the playoff baseball logic of “the starter gave up a run, it’s time to go to the bullpen” only for the reliever to immediately load the bases

Standing Ken Rosenthal next to Aaron Judge is so mean man. Let them both sit, do some camera tricks, give him a stool, do something man this is flagrant

The World Series drop and him breaking his toe or whatever at Dodger Stadium (which wasn’t even really his fault) has done irreparable damage to his reputation in my mind

dɛriɛn ʤi @dizzlevernetti.bsky.social · 2d

I know Aaron Judge is actually a pretty good fielder, but any time he makes a play my brain thinks “oh shit, good for him”

The foul pole should be sticky.

SHOW US THE FAN ON THE DAMN FIELD

I really hope Flacco goes to Pittsburgh next year to fill a backup role and thus is able to complete his AFC North collection

Dianna Russini @diannarussini.bsky.social · 2d

TRADE: The Bengals are acquiring Joe Flacco and a sixth-round pick from the Browns for a fifth-round pick, sources say.

ESPN has such a strong anti-Giannis/Milwaukee agenda that they made Shams write what feels like his first long form article ever after months of him saying “just trust me bro”

Why Giannis Antetokounmpo's future in Milwaukee is far from settled

In a transformative summer for the Bucks, the team had discussions about moving the two-time MVP to New York.

My hamstring all summer has basically felt uncomfortable but not really in a way that kept me from doing anything. I'm assuming Chourio sorta has something similar going on

It’s gonna be very bittersweet when Orlando Arcia gets dethroned

DONT NEED A GOOD HAMMY TO JOG THE BASES, DO YA?

Wild Bill is a believer in the Adolis Garcia “why bat flip when you can hit three different cellies before it lands instead” method
