Still lookin’ to get into the Luxury Lounge. NJ born. Now northern CA. Miss the pizza. Long-suffering Mets fan. Totally non-suffering Sopranos fan.

@orange_peelbeef Christopher, IMO.

@uniquemoviemom My God. So many brilliant little details in this scene. Shock of the punch. Then Richie angrily plucking the Jersey Bride magazine out from under his ass. Sneering at it. Then stabbing the ziti with a fork clank, talking with his mouth full in his last arrogant moments… Gold.

@FinalDude78 You’re probably already on this, but more bonkers Zahler stuff worth checking out:

@BaseballBilly3 @bostonradio @DPLennon It’s gotta be music copyright issues. Letterman’s band playing the theme song or something, and HBO not giving the rights?

Fun fact for the $10 billion lawsuit crowd.

The IRS leak that exposed Donald Trump’s tax returns happened between August 2019 and November 2020.

405,427 other taxpayer returns were also leaked.

Trump was president. His own pick, Charles Rettig, ran the IRS. The contractor who did it, Charles Littlejohn, worked on a Trump-era IRS contract and is now serving five years in federal prison.

On January 29, 2026, Trump sued the IRS and Treasury for $10 billion over a breach that happened on his watch, under his commissioner, by a contractor his administration paid.

He is suing the federal government he ran, for failing to stop a leak that occurred while he was running it.

The taxpayer foots the bill either way.

@tbecks23 The only time I’ve heard Ronny express anything in the moment was the last strike of Santana’s no hitter.

He shouted “YES!!”

Understandable.

@nbcsnl Was David Koechner (Todd Packer on The Office) in the SNL cast at some point and I missed it? Now that I think about it, I don’t recognize the two women in that clip either. Is this some bizarro world SNL sketch?

@BeaneaterB Speaking of “athletes & animal cruelty” storylines, Wasn’t there a video circulating a few years back that had Starling Marte involved in taping a marmoset(?) to a giant firework and lighting it off? Or was that fake?

@VHSDVDBLURAY4K I saw that same truck in Oregon, and I started flipping out. “It’s the Criterion Closet truck!” As we got alongside it, it was revealed to be a truck for the coffee/catering company “Canteen,” not Criterion.

My kids busted my chops the rest of the drive home to Sacramento.

@metsedinthehead @MetsSouthFla He’s already backed off of it with another “source” saying the Cubs haven’t talked to the Mets.

@sondraa @_Yomally Never even considered a hot sub at Mike’s, but was talked into it by the staff to try the Hot Italian when it was around.

It was glorious. Especially with my usual addition, “extra vinegar.”

@CrashOf47 @RealEmirHan Saw this recently. Context is that he’s a Union soldier injured in the Deep South. The girl finds him, is scared, & Confederate soldiers pass nearby. To keep her from screaming for them, he kisses her instead of covering her mouth. It’s kinda an early reveal of his sleaziness. Ew

I just want to point out....

The amount of money the United States has spent on war in the last 67 days, is roughly the same cost that Bernie Sanders proposed for universal college. So the real question is never can we afford it, it's what we choose to prioritize.

@ATRightMovies That one with Steven Segal beating everyone up at a pool hall while “looking for Richie.”

@jimstewartson Is that former New York Met Noah Syndergaard back there?

If so, what bizarre set of circumstances brought him to the White House?

@SelectedCinema I just found the Criterion Collection blu-ray of this last week in a used media store for $2, somehow. Watched it that same night, and have been kicking myself ever since for not having appreciated back in the 80’s when I first saw it as a teen. Beautiful film.

@SNYtv Todd clearly rooting for the #1 draft pick.

@SleeperMets How have I never seen that? It’s worse than I ever imagined when reading the quotes.

@MetsAvenue Kinda like the way the fans (and Piazza and Seaver) didn’t deserve the sad final game at Shea Stadium immediately following a soul-crushing eliminated-from-the-playoffs collapse finale. The franchise’s history seems to be chock full of demoralizing stuff like this.
