Cedric Mullins is all heart. He put on a masterclass these past few days and a part of me thinks it’s because he wants to leave (not by choice) the Orioles giving the fans the best he’s got. I’m grateful I got to witness that in person these past few days. Love you Ceddy! Always an Oriole to me 🖤🧡

Tequila with a pickle juice chaser is amazing. Just saying

The New York Times @nytimes.com · 16h

From @theathletic.com: NFL players are reaching for pickle juice as a solution for cramps. “It’s nasty, yeah,” said 49ers cornerback Eli Apple. “But it works.”

The salty solution for cramps? 49ers players reach for pickle juice shooters

A few NFL players started drinking pickle juice 25 years ago, but the two-ounce containers used now are a relatively recent phenomenon.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.
