This is great news.
The @baseballhall.org just announced that I'm one of the 16 members of the Contemporary Era Committee that will meet Sunday to elect the newest Hall of Famer(s).
I'm honored to serve. But it means I won't be writing a column Sunday to analyze the vote. Here's why.

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

Since MLB mentioned the movie in eulogizing Redford, The Natural's ending is pretty funny in that it is the ultimate example of a movie completely discarding the meaning of its source material for The Magic of The Cinema, doubly funny because it actually works youtu.be/Y1pgp1BOqqM?...

"...somehow wore his incredible charisma almost shyly."
What Robert Redford contributed to American films via Sundance is genuinely immeasurable. He was also an extraordinarily talented director--Ordinary People and Quiz Show are two of the best American studio movies of their eras--and an actor who somehow wore his incredible charisma almost shyly. RIP.

History says, don't hope
On this side of the grave.
But then, once in a lifetime
The longed-for tidal wave
Of justice can rise up,
And hope and history rhyme.
So hope for a great sea-change
On the far side of revenge.
Believe that further shore
