Yeahhhh thx. She’d been with my wife’s family since well before I even came into the picture. True boss

Bid farewell to a total boss this weekend, as Ginger’s 19+ year adventure came to a close. 🫡 🌈

Copy-paste this but for Taiwan-Korea. The emotion on these players' faces is moving beyond belief.

This feels like a … change from what I’ve heard

I appreciate the Statcast-ian visuals on the Delta seatback screens with all the angles and mileage and exit velocities of the plane

Everybody else here is either on Very Important Business Calls or doing big important work on their laptops or in golf clothing and I’m just wolfing down iced coffee like a goof

WBC. Tokyo Dome. Bases loaded. Ohtani at the plate. Did you really think anything else was gonna happen?! 🙃😂 #BoothViews with Jose Mota for Shohei’s WBC slam in Samurai Japan’s rout of Chinese Taipei. #WorldBaseballClassic  #大谷翔平

Frank Menechino and Sal Fasano! My baseball memories! I feel like a pile of dust

How about a T-Rex and velociraptors? Surely nothing bad will come of that? Maybe they could all be housed in some kind of … park? On a jungle island? Sounds fun.
