Sports fan. Music lover. I write a Substack about modern rock. If you're not sweating when you're having fun, you're not having enough fun.

I'm at https://t.co/3MKHxhZ4RU.whatever on Bluesky. All the cool kids are going there, so figured I'd mention it.

I'll still be here, though. Haven't encountered a single Nazi in my 16 years on this platform, and I usually tweet about sports, so staying here makes sense. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[Matt @dursk]

Hilarious! 😂😂

"But as we know the English historically struggle here in Massachusetts." - @JohnStrong early on in the match

England remains without a goal after 65 minutes...

[Matt @dursk]

Honestly, so is "Face/Off."

Are you insane?! Con Air is a masterpiece

[Gannon Men’s Basketball @GANNON_MBB]

THE CLIMB IS COMPLETE⚔️

WE ARE THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONS‼️🏆

[Matt @dursk]

Great first half! Halfway there! 💪🏼💪🏼

[Gannon Men’s Basketball @GANNON_MBB]

Lot of work left to do. Need everyone to stay locked in.

[Matt @dursk]

@scottinphilly 30?!? Dear God...

[Dan Wetzel @DanWetzel]

They need to stop letting these G5 teams in the playoff

All things considered I think this is the most elite mascot performance of all time

10/10 no notes for Brutus

[Eleven Warriors @11W]

Brutus dots the i in the Big House!

@scottinphilly @Dodgers @BlueJays My earliest memory is Jack Morris in '91. Then '93, '97, '01, '16, and '25. All in the conversation. I thought the '11 Cardinals were in the mix, but Freese's shenanigans were in Game 6 vs. Rangers. I think '25 is up there, but nothing tops '16.

[Matt @dursk]

Sums up my thoughts exactly. Hell of a game. Hell of a series.

[Adam Rittenberg @ESPNRittenberg]

Will never root for the Dodgers but give them a ton of credit for fighting back repeatedly tonight. An absolutely gutting loss for Toronto that will linger for years and years.

[Barry @BarryOnHere]

The most famous slap from a Will Smith that I can remember.

[ATBBTTR @ATBBTTR]

Hey!! We got mentioned!!!

[Pat Forde @ByPatForde]

Oh my god. This series …

If you gotta run over the left fielder to keep the season alive, you do it.

[Matt @dursk]

@scottinphilly @Mariners Lots of my favorites Reds players are on that team. Don't really have any animosity toward Toronto, but really wanted Seattle there.

[Dan Wetzel @DanWetzel]

Indiana averaged 4.1 victories a season in the 30 years prior to the arrival of Curt Cignetti. He's is now 16-2 at IU. The only losses -- at Ohio State and at Notre Dame.

Somehow no major program hired this guy until he was 61 years old.

And if you think he's leaving Bloomington, I wouldn't count on it. No need. This is a new era of the sport and the Hoosiers are title contenders.

[Matt @dursk]

Agree 100% Wild turnaround and an amazing story.

[Stewart Mandel @slmandel]

The rise of Indiana football under Cignetti is one of the most impressive things I've ever seen.

Just getting to a bowl game has long been the ceiling for that program. Then Cignetti comes in, goes to CFP in Year 1, legit top-5 team in Year 2.

That just doesn't happen in CFB.

[Cincinnati Reds @Reds]

YOUR CINCINNATI REDS ARE GOING TO THE
POSTSEASON

[Charlie Goldsmith @CharlieG__]

The Reds did it.

They were left for dead several times this year.

Nick Krall said if there’s one word to describe this group, it’s resilient.

On Tuesday, Hunter Greene takes the ball. He’ll face an incredibly talented team. But with Greene, the Reds enter Game 1 with a real shot.
