It’s funny how people support something from afar until it affects them, because your anecdote reminded me of when BLM marches and protests  shut down BART et al at various times, and I heard a fair share of "Why can't they protest somewhere else?

Ah man, I loved Bill Walton as an NBA guy. His pairing with Snapper Jones was probably my favorite broadcast tandem of all time.

“The ninth inning of Thursday night’s Cubs-Reds game was a real circus, and I mean that in a good way.”

It’s still real to me, dammit.

he’s gotta join Big 3 to stop Joe Johnson’s reign of 4-point terror

“This was how Sports Illustrated once described Vermeil’s ability to multitask: ‘He gulped coffee for breakfast, ate a Carnation Breakfast Bar for lunch and sometimes had a hoagie, while sitting on the toilet, for dinner.’”

No, this is poetic:
