@JeffreyTheGreek Amen. Not sure they can try any harder to make it happen.

[CC Report @cc22report]

OK here's the rant

Earmuffs for the sensitive

YOU GODDAMN PIECE OF SHIT REFS AND WNBA FRONT OFFICE

I HOPE YOU ARE FUCKING HAPPY

JUST TODAY YOU RECEIVED INCONTROVERTABLE PROOF THAT DESPITE YOUR BEST EFFORTS CAITLIN'S POPULARITY IS STILL THROUGH THE ROOF, STILL THE NEEDLE, STILL THE GENERATOR, STILL THE ENGINE THAT HAS POWERED THIS CLOWN LEAGUE TO A BRAND NEW MEDIA DEAL AND CBA

EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU HAS HAD YOUR FUCKING POCKETS LINED BY CAITLIN CLARK

AND YET YOU ALLOW THIS SORT OF SHIT ALL THE TIME

LANDING SPACE VIOLATION - NO CALL

PUNCHED IN THE THROAT - NO CALL

ELBOW TO THE FACE - NO CALL

AND THAT IS IN JUST THE PAST GAME AND A HALF

THIS HAS BEEN ALL YEAR

FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT FOR EVERY PLAYER EXCEPT FOR CAITLIN

SHE GETS TO BE TIGER MAULED EVERY FUCKING GAME

IT WAS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SHE BECAME INJURED AGAIN AND HERE IT IS

RIGHT WHEN SHE FINALLY WAS BACK TO FORM, RIGHT WHEN SHE HAD REGAINED HER CONFIDENCE, RIGHT WHEN SHE LOOKED LIKE CAITLIN AGAIN

WHAT HAS SHE DONE TO EARN YOUR SCORN

WHAT HAS SHE DONE FOR YOU TO GIVE UP LITERALLY BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN FAVOR OF HER BEING LITERALLY INJURED AND OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE

DID SHE LIKE KILL YOUR DOG OR SOMETHING IN A PAST LIFE

GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER YOU INCOMPETENT ASS CLOWN LEAGUE

FUCK

Let pitchers hit again.

[Clint Hurdle @ClintHurdle13]

During one of the worst losing streaks of my career, our team president walked into my office.

Keli McGregor. One of the best men I've ever known.

He could have come to vent. To question my decisions. To ask hard questions.

Instead, he said: "Cut to the chase, Clint. What's next?"

I looked him in the eye and gave him two words: "Shower well."

The Colorado Rockies were struggling badly that year.

Pregame preparation was solid. Scout meetings, early work, attention to detail. All of it was there.

But at game time, the tires were flat.

I told Keli: the game did everything it could to us today. We just couldn't meet its demands.

Now it was time to reset.

"Shower well" means exactly this:
• Watch the frustration circle down the drain
• Shampoo, rinse, repeat and get the grime of today completely off your mind
• Walk out clean, go home, and actually rest

Leave it at the ballpark. The game is over. There's nothing left to solve tonight.

Keli nodded. Asked if he could share it with the whole organization.

I said sure. And then it hit me. This isn't just for baseball.

Bad day at the office. Grumpy boss. Missed deadline. Traffic on the way home.

You can carry all of that through your front door.

Or you can shower well.

I've never seen a single problem get better because someone dragged it home with them.

The reset is a discipline. Same as preparation. Same as showing up.

Either we win. Or we learn.

The only real loss? When you don't take a single thing out of a hard day.

So tonight, whatever kind of day it was, shower well.

Tomorrow is a new at-bat.

What does your reset look like? I'd love to hear it.

Junior infielder Andrew Gallegos has been named the American Rivers Conference Male Athlete of the Week and Position Player of the Week, the league office announced Monday.

Gallegos (Naperville, Ill./Naperville Central HS) helped lead the Wartburg College baseball team (9-3 overall) to a Saturday doubleheader sweep of St. Olaf College, batting 5-for-9 (.556) with two home runs, a double, six RBI and three runs scored.

BSB RECAP: 𝐊𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬’ 𝐁𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐒𝐡𝐮𝐭𝐬 𝐃𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐛𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐒𝐧𝐚𝐩𝐬 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐫-𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐝

The Wartburg College baseball team (4-4 overall) snapped a four-game skid with a 3-1 bounce-back victory over Concordia College Moorhead (4-3 overall).

The Knights relied on a strong outing from starting pitcher Kam Volz (2-0), who tossed five scoreless innings and struck out six. Reliever Zach Byrne worked the next three frames before Conner Funk recorded the final three outs to earn his second save of the season.

August 11th surgery for the shorter repair of TJ (6-9 month recovery). 183 days later last night, he threw his first pitch to a live batter.

A testament to his work ethic and dedication, as most of the work he did to get back was during non-contact periods for us.

Whitney Houston sang the most EPIC rendition of the National Anthem at the #SuperBowl .. she didn’t just sing it… she made us feel it: Patriotism. Pride. Purpose.

A moment that reminded us why we love this country 🇺🇸

[A Soldier's Whisper @SoldiersWhisper]

She said my dog looked “dangerous.” She asked why a German Shepherd like this was even allowed on a plane.

Ma’am, let me introduce you to Duke. That “threatening” animal spent six years deployed with Marine Special Operations. He’s a certified Multi-Purpose Canine. While most people run away from danger, Duke runs toward it.

🐾 His resume:
Tracking high-value targets.

Detecting explosives before they turn into funerals.

Shot twice in the line of duty.

That scar on his shoulder? Shrapnel from an IED in Helmand Province. Despite being wounded and bleeding, Duke located four more devices in that same area to keep his team safe.

The limp you’re staring at? He took multiple rounds during an ambush to save his handler. Because of him, a 22-year-old Marine got to go home to his daughter.

Duke has a Navy Commendation Medal. He has a Purple Heart. He is credited with saving over 40 American lives.

And the most important stat? Zero bite incidents. The only thing Duke has ever snapped at were threats trying to harm our troops.

So no, I won’t be moving seats. But you are more than welcome to lean over and thank him for his service.
