Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber (@OfficialALW) overheard a mom threatening to take her son to a Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber show if he didn’t behave 🤣 #FallonTonight
Caught up with Mark Byington's mentor Bobby Cremins this morning. Cremins is stunned at how Byington has turned Vanderbilt basketball around.
“I knew he was good. But, I didn’t know he was that good," he told @VandyOnSI.

We are now in a weird era where a guy gets publicly shamed for running his sprinklers on a Tuesday, while a data center the size of a Costco quietly drains a reservoir so AI can generate a picture of your cat as a medieval knight. And the data center gets a tax incentive for it.
@jakirby89 Should we offer to counsel them through their time of suffering? (Disclaimer: I'm disturbed that some VandyBoys fans are dangerously close to acting like entitled Kentucky basketball and Alabama football fans right now.)
Bob Horner and I were destined to be teammates somewhere. I signed a letter of intent to play baseball at Arizona State before I was drafted. Bob played at ASU and ended up in Atlanta my first full year in the major leagues—1978. One way or another, it was bound to happen.
From the minute Bob Horner joined the Braves, all us players could see he was good. I mean… really good. And that swing—short and quick, x or and could turn around anybody’s fast ball. And Bob knew the strike zone. He just did not swing at a bad pitch (like I had a tendency to do a little too often…) He was a unique talent and I was very lucky to be in the lineup with him most of my career. All of my numbers were better when he was hitting behind me. And that fact is not lost on me. I know my career was better because of him.
It’s been a hard few weeks for the Braves Family losing Ted and Bobby—and now Bob. These 3 men all had such a profound impact on my career. I am forever grateful.
Nancy and I will miss Bob and our hearts go out to Chris and Trent and Tyler, along with their entire family.
The older we get, the more we cherish wonderful memories and this past month has brought a flood of them back to us. The gratitude we feel for them all has been overwhelming.
Rest well, my friend and teammate.
Mike Yastrzemski has hit .357 in nine career games at Fenway Park. Why is that?
"There could be a lot of things. Could be what you’re thinking," he said

On this date 10 years ago...the @VandyBoys' Donny Everett's final pitch of the game was a fastball clocked at 101 mph in the 9th inning of a 7-0 win versus Missouri in the SEC Tournament in Hoover. A few days later, on June 2, Everett passed away in a tragic drowning accident, the day before the start of NCAA tournament regionals.
For several years after, the SEC honored Everett with the number "101" in the corner of the videoboard at the Hoover Met.
May his memory be a continued blessing to all who knew and loved him.
@AuricGoldfnger@VandyBoys I think they've always been out there, suppressed, as but they feel like this year's record allows them to come out of the closet. Again I say, please give me a one-button block! Very much the anti-Pavia crowd, very complicated psyches.
