I’m not saying it’s been a while since I’ve exercised, but when I got on the Peloton bike this morning it asked for the name of my first pet and the street I grew up on. Just kidding…I didn’t get on the Peloton this morning!
Guess what?
I don’t care if you thought Charlie James Kirk was the devil or the messiah.
I don’t care if you replayed his speeches on loop or muted him like an annoying ringtone.
I don’t care if you cheered when he blamed the Jews for “evil,” or gagged when he said it.
Here’s what matters:
He was killed.
And we’ve let our country get to the point where assassination feels like just another Tuesday.
If you’re on the right, screaming it’s the left’s fault—congrats, you’re part of the problem.
If you’re on the left, celebrating because you think one less voice you hated is gone—yep, same problem.
This isn’t about politics.
This is about whether we’re still human.
Because if we can’t show even a shred of compassion when someone dies—no matter who they were—then maybe we’ve already lost a lot more than we realize.
It's been looking this way for a while. But Dick Allen will go into the Hall of Fame this July as a Phillie.
Other cap choices announced by the Hall today:
Ichiro-Mariners
CC-Yankees
Wagner-Astros
Parker-Pirates
All 5 except CC will enter the Hall repping their original teams. Perfect!
Dawn Staley to the crowd:
"I want to personally thank Caitlin Clark for lifting up our sport. She carried a heavy load for our sport... She's gonna lift that league [WNBA] up... You are one of the GOATs of our game and we appreciate you.”
Super classy 👏

Complete list of players with at least 2,500 hits, 250 home runs, and 250 defensive runs saved:
#Orioles Brooks Robinson
…as a matter of fact, you can ditch the hits and home runs qualifier and he still stands alone.
Only Roberto Clemente and Adrián Beltré join him when lowering the qualifiers to 2,000/200/200.
