When my Grandma passed away in 2024, I inherited hers. It's purple. I put it on my bed in winter. It's the very top layer, so I don't feel the itchiness.

Admit it, you owned this blanket or knew someone that did.

I'll say it again. They don't make 'em like this anymore. Jim Steinman wrote "Total Eclipse of the Heart". It was big and dramatic. All his songs were. But Bonnie's voice really brought it home.

Rest In Peace Bonnie Tyler 🙏🏻

The artist leaves behind an incredible legacy. Forever remembered.

Fact. 💯 I still think about that time I met Gavin DeGraw and slammed my head into his. Because of course I did. That was 13 years ago.

Jaylen Brown carried that team on his back last season. It was supposed to be a throwaway season. He made sure it wasn't. So they traded him to a division rival. The team that knocked them out of the playoffs. I'm done.

Two people have climbed to the top of the Empire State Building and unfurled a flag on top of its spire.

The unidentified people appear to be wearing masks. https://t.co/V7QN65PYKA

I used to go with the 10-year-old when she was younger. I legit think I enjoyed it more than she did!

JORGE POSADA: “I CAN’T WATCH TODAY’S BASEBALL.”

Yankees legend Jorge Posada, a 4-time World Series champion and one of the faces of the dynasty years, (The Core 4) did not hold back during his interview on Abriendo El Podcast.

Posada said today’s game has become too robotic, too obsessed with formulas, and too accepting of strikeouts.

“The baseball being played today is garbage,” Posada said.

He also pushed back hard on the analytics crowd trying to judge Derek Jeter’s defense strictly through modern numbers.

“You can’t judge Jeter through a computer.”

That line right there is pure old-school Yankees.

Posada came from an era where putting the ball in play mattered. Moving runners mattered. Taking pride in not striking out mattered. He said back then, striking out 100 times in a season felt like you were not doing your job.

Now? Guys can strike out constantly, hit 30 home runs, bat .202, and still get paid like stars.

His message was simple:

The game got smarter on paper, but dumber between the lines. #yankees #repbx

I think it was a co-headliner tour, but Boyz II Men and Babyface put on a phenomenal concert.
