@NFL_DovKleiman Think he should be punting her- she’s not paying for the ticket. Say thank you and shut up.

[Corey Seidman @CoreySeidman]

Phillies had the Braves right where they wanted em today. Late lead, Sale out, Duran in, 9th inning shaping up to be the bottom of ATL's order

It hasn't mattered who's come out of the Phillies' bullpen the last 3 Octobers or how great of a season they had, nobody's done the job

[Himbo President 🇵🇸 @himbopresident]

All the people in my replies are right, teaching is a really easy and stress-free job which is why 50% of people who enter the profession quit within five years

[The Red Stripes Supporter Group @TheRedStripesSG]

Rollins is and likely always will be the measuring stick for all Phillies SS moving forward.

This is how Trea Turner’s 2023-2025 matches up against Rollins’ 2007-2009

[Karen Vaites @karenvaites]

'Reading comprehension is not a “skill” like riding a bike or making free throws in basketball. It’s heavily dependent on the background knowledge readers bring to a text.

Thus your ability to make a correct inference when reading about baseball, for example, does not mean you can make correct inferences when reading about a Japanese tea ceremony.

There’s no abstract skill called “inferencing” that you can practice, master, and apply with equal effect on whatever you read. This places strict limits on reading strategies.

That said, test score gains have long been associated with Reading Comprehension Strategies (RCS). “The funny thing about reading comprehension strategy instruction is that it really shouldn’t work, but it does,” the pair note. But once kids get the big idea behind RCS—that a piece of text is trying to tell us something—there’s zero evidence that repeated practice has any beneficial effect. Ten lessons are as good as fifty. “The implication seems obvious,” they conclude. “RCS instruction should be explicit and brief.”'

@rpondiscio with a tight description of a central insight in comprehension.

[Brian Tolentino M.Ed @TolentinoTeach]

The American education system is fixated on finding the latest method or system to get students reading and writing.

Unfortunately, no hack exists. Reading is sometimes dull. Writing is often hard.

You can’t entertain yourself to an education.

Kyle Schwarber, Trea Turner, Bryce Harper are hitting a combined .220 in September

[Chris Campbell @SoupPhilly]

@VinnysCorner1 Lenny and Dutch both solid players, but Boone or JT as catcher. In the OF move Whitey to CF, and move Bobby to RF. Chuck Klein is now LF. I have issues with Bryce as DH too, but since NL just adopted it several years ago- it’s between Harper and Schwarber- not a hill to die on.

I think I found the worst possible way to lose a game.

[NFL Memes @NFLMemes]

Rutgers paying UMass $1.5M to play them Week 1 as 30-point favorites only to lose and then set off a pre-planned fireworks show postgame might be the single saddest thing l've ever seen
