Appealing to people under the age of 60 should be incredibly important to MLB and if they have to pay A+ list musicians to play the World Series so that clips of their event go viral all over Tik Tok then they should!
Just thinking about when the Yankees brought out Fat Joe during the World Series.
Better things are possible, and MLB needs to think like this ⬇️

I'm thankful for all the technologists, FOIA officers, parks workers, public health researchers, criminal investigators, and countless other civil servants who have kept diligently doing their jobs under extreme duress. This year has been bad but it could have been so, so much worse.

No, America's rising anti-Semitism is not an online illusion created by foreign-run social media accounts on X. I wrote about how this comforting fiction is contradicted by real world events and survey data. Foreigners can fan the flames, but they didn't start the fire. We did. Gift link:

Art Briles has been hired as the head football coach at a D2 school and so is back in the news. If you want to understand why this hire is upsetting for many, here's the long piece @dansolomon.com and I wrote back in 2019 about How Baylor Happened: web.archive.org/web/20190208...

Hey Bissacia,
Yes, it's still me. I know you don't expect beef from me on a Saturday, but did you get a look at the Badgers squashing that punter after he muffed the ball? Maybe try something like that?
Yeah, I'm still watching you.
