Query letters are confusing and hard. Join me for a virtual seminar with @mcnallyjackson.bsky.social on Thursday, Jan. 29 at 7pm ET where I will make the whole process clear and manageable. Lucky participants will receive a LIVE query critique. www.mcnallyjackson.com/demystifying...

For those outside the Twin Cities, the person posting this GoFundMe is a member of Minneapolis city council (and among the many locals doing absolutely heroic resistance to ICE), so it's legit.

My t-ball number was 15 for Lloyd Moseby..who never made it to the World Series, but was part of some great Pennant runs. Somewhere I have a shirt signed by him.

Mamdani is obviously rooting for the Jays.

Cuomo is certainly pulling for the Dodgers.

Sliwa can't watch baseball any more, ever since Sammy the Bull beat him with a bat.

Growing up, when the Jays made it to the Pennant or beyond, I recall the public city buses playing the games on the radio for everyone not in front of a TV set.

I was at the 1993 game the last time the Jays won the World Series and my strongest memory of it, before Joe Carter hit the home run, is that everyone was listening to the Leafs game on transistor radios. 🇨🇦

Opinion | Why Are We Doomed to Keep Reliving the ’90s? The characters that dominated the end of the last millennium have an outsize influence on the current one.

“Had I gone to sleep on New Year’s Eve in 1999 and waked today, Rip Van Winkle style, much of the world I left behind that night would still feel familiar,” Glynnis MacNicol writes.
