She’s the most talented, whipsmart, fearless sports presenter to come along since who knows when.
The first time I saw her on TV, I actually called people to tell them to turn on the show.
Even if they don’t have any actual ideas they could just reboot Garbage Time on a channel that people are watching.
Katie’s like a…

So the Red Sox are still stealing signs then?

I agree. I took no photos. I just took it in. Amazing and beyond words. I drove 26 hours round trip, and it was worth it.

I almost thought I was crazy. So glad to see others are feeling the same way. This event was borderline life changing for me.

This is 100% correct. I drove to Nebraska for it, expecting something cool and interesting because “Why not?”. But what I got was exactly how you described it: the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen.

I was debating how important it was to be in the totality. “Ehhh 99% vs 100%...” but fuck me... I got to a vantage where I could see the shadow and darkness coming from the west across a few dozen miles of open grassland from a hilltop and I was like “Wow! That was incredible!” Then I looked up at the sky expecting…

I’m glad I’m not the only one. This is from my Facebook post a little while ago: “I know people travel the world and see eclipses all the time. I’ve seen plenty of photos, so I had a pretty good idea what it was going to look like. But knowing what it’s going to look like, and actually experiencing it are two…

This is exactly the same experience I had, except I unexpectedly cried for the first minute. Totally other-worldly.

Agreed. The experience far exceeded my expectations. I don’t think I will ever experience something quite like this anywhere else.

I second what you just said. It was neat looking up every 10 minutes to see PacMan get bigger...but nothing was as amazing as looking up at the full eclipse and seeing that. One of the most powerful things I have ever seen.

It really doesn’t make sense until you see it. I was excited to go, but completely unprepared for what it would actually be like. As soon as it hit totality I started crying. I’m standing thinking “wait, I’m actually crying?” while at the same time just in utter awe of how amazing it was. Everyone back home thinks I’m…

Yep. In retrospect, even attempting to take photos was folly. It feels weird to describe something as “the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen” and actually mean it, but here we are.

Samer, I thought you hated barstool sports?

Whoa whoa whoa, Michael. Settle down.

It should because he is the best US player ever already. If he continues a developmental arc like other elite players (not US elites but the real elites) AND there is ANYTHING behind him in the US pipeline that is close, we will have something exciting to watch in 2022 and 2026 (and the intervening years will be more…

I hope you’re sufficiently ashamed or yourself for this comment.

Pretty sure they’re not called dongs over there, they’re called knobs.
