Cleveland is headed to the MLB postseason for the eighth time in 11 years. The Pirates have just their fifth winning season in 34 years. 125 miles apart on the Turnpike. A million miles apart in so many other ways.

@gbrowniepoints Remember him from when I was there covering the team. Good guy.

On this date in 2013, the @Pirates clinched their first postseason berth since 1992 with a 2-1 victory over the Cubs at Wrigley Field.  Starling Marte’s home run off Kevin Gregg in the 9th broke a 1-1 tie.  Chicago’s Nate Schierholtz was thrown out at the plate to end the game.

To my BELOVED Supporters,

Over the past few weeks I have received many e-mails, dms and text messages concerning my status with @jcwlunacy .

For those of you who know me, you know I don't hide from the truth, I don't avoid the truth and I certainly don't lie about the truth.

The reason for my silence was that . . . I just didn't know. I just needed some time. I'd been unhappy for a while in @jcwlunacy and I'm not going to deny that. Something had to change.

Without getting into specifics, there were a lot of reasons with the biggest one being that at 65 . . . I'm not the same guy I was 30 years ago. Things have changed, life has changed and more importantly . . . I've changed.

A short while ago I had a phone conversation with Violent J and we have amicably agreed to part ways.

Hey man, it was supposed to be for a few weeks, maybe a couple of months, but we KILLED IT for an entire year.

So now . . . it's time to move on. What the future holds . . . we shall see.

I'd like to thank Violent J---one of the kindest, gentlest, most creative souls I have ever met in my life, the @jcwlunacy locker room---who treated me with the utmost respect, and the entire crew who worked their ARSES off every day.

Yeah, it was a wild ride . . . but, now . . . maybe I can finally take that nap.

God Bless,

Vince

I’ve always felt Fred’s contribution to the haul was undervalued. They were cutting that shit close but he was calmer than Joe Montana running a two-minute drill the entire time.

The Pirates have officially been eliminated from postseason contention, extending their playoff drought to 11 consecutive seasons.

80s NBA warm-ups should all be produced today as comfy adult pajamas. There is no persuasive counterargument to this.

@TheJimCornette Happy birthday sir! Hope you have a great year!

As college football is upon us, here's a tune we all know — the CBS college football theme.

What you may not have known is that this piece of music — composed by Lloyd Landesman — was originally written for and introduced to the public on CBS's Super Bowl XXI telecast in January of 1987.
