Soon:

“I’m Scott Baio.”
“I’m Patricia Heaton.”
“I’m Kevin Sorbo.”
“I’m Roseanne Barr.”
“I’m Andrew Tate. Those stories, plus Tony Hinchcliffe, tonight on 60 Minutes.”

The MASH finale drew 105 million viewers. The Yellowstone finale drew 13 million. Just wanted to throw that out there since we’re being moronic.

“Thank you, nice lady.”

[The Sting @TheStingisBack]

Smokey and the Bandit turns 49 today. If it weren’t for a space saga from a galaxy far, far away, it would’ve been '77’s biggest hit. Burt Reynolds starred, but Jackie Gleason flat-out steals the movie. Now, gimme a diablo sandwich and a Dr Pepper, ’cause I’m in a goddamn hurry.

[Sam Paxton @SamPaxton_]

@Hlas Yeah, but you saw them in Waterloo in 1975, so you got me beat.

@rkrager8 @lmppc I want her in the best situation possible, first and foremost, but deep down, I want her to end up on the Philly expansion team so she can play at home.

Is there an airdate for this yet?!?!

Madison Hricik and Jeff Linder have co-founded PROJECT SLO MILES, a fundraiser for Gazette photo editor Jim Slosiarek. https://t.co/9fHKjf5D28

[Sam Paxton @SamPaxton_]

Every year, #GazetteAOY is the best thing we do. And make no mistake, the project gives our photogs an outlet to shine. In 2018, Jim went old-school - shooting on film (not digital) AND black & white. It's an honor to help out this talented dude and friend. #ProjectSLOMiles

[Jeff Linder @jtlinder]

Co-founder @SportingMads and I will run the Cedar Rapids half marathon June 7 in an effort to help raise funds for co-worker Jim Slosiarek.
