I guess this coverage is gonna go on indefinitely cause it easy to generate clicks. … Fights over money between multimillionaire athletes and announcers are not what most people are concerned about IMHO.

[Matthew Keys @MatthewKeysLive]

Andrew Marchand's coverage of the situation between Joe Buck and Troy Aikman is the closest thing I've read in the style of David Carr's media column in years.

It is a terrific scoop that does not overly sensationalize — it just lays out what happened, according to sources.

Brewers manager Pat Murphy entered his postgame presser with his 4 kids after Milwaukee beat the Dodgers in NLCS Game 1.

He let his 2 daughters sit and had his 2 sons stand, manners first.

I AM GOING TO CELEBRATE THIS VICTORY LAP.

The last time we had a large operation in Skid Row was ten years ago. No Feds were involved. We worked hard, we arrested 22 people including a kingpin. With the exception of the kingpin and his partner, the rest of them received no time as we were forced to rely on weakened state laws to give the community relieve from people who preyed on the community I actually care about deeply. They were released and continued to poison people and keep addicts on an endless spiral of addiction.

Government checks that were supposed to help them house and feed themselves, when into the pockets of these individuals.

Over those ten years, I watched meth, spice and the most deadly of them all, fentanyl, flood the Skid Row community. A place that is supposed to be a “recovery zone”.

I watched my fellow officers and myself, fight a futile battle to combat it. Our officers recovered kilos of narcotics and weapons, and made countless arrests, only for the revolving door the voters supported, to release them with little to no consequence.

I watched as the influx of fentanyl poisoned and took the lives of people I knew and cared about for 20 years.

I watched daily as someone’s loved one died in a gutter, or on a piss soaked sidewalk. I received calls from folks who lived in hotels of people being found dead in their low income supportive hotel room, where they were supposed to receive help.

Slumped over bodies on the sidewalk An explosion of sexual assaults against women who fell unconscious to this evil drug.

Family members calling me, begging me to find their daughter or son, only for me or my fellow officers to find them dead in a tent, then having the tragic task of telling them, their loved one is never coming home.

Then hope came several months ago, when federal law enforcement under a new administration, decided to help us in our fight to try to create an environment conducive to real change, so the influence of the service providers could be stronger than that of the criminal element. Prior to that, under another administration, they weren’t allowed.

They didn’t just show up and start harassing anyone. They had been planning this and focusing on individuals who have been hurting the Skid Row community for decades.

And for the first time in years, they will actually be held accountable.

For people in high places, to try to demonize this effort, but never having a thing to say about hundreds of people dying every year, to have nothing to say about the shootings, the rapes, all driven by the drug these suspects sell right in front of and within programs designed to help the homeless…

To have nothing to say about the blatant crime…

Is disappointing to say the least. I want to say something much harsher, but I must keep my dignity. What makes it worse, is they knew about it. But there response is to attack the people trying to stop it.

To turn a blind eye to the things I’ve described, and even more disturbing, villify the efforts to stop it, is not leadership. That is not care for for our homeless neighbors.

That is one’s ideology, being more more important than the people they profess to care about.

An ideology, that is failing the people I ACTUALLY care about.

The homeless are not a political football for me. Their condition is not something to exploit to push a world view or cause.

I will celebrate the victory lap law enforcement is taking. And pray there will be more, until Skid Row, lives up to its true potential, which is to help people change their lives. Not enabling them to destroy themselves under a twisted sense of benevolence, which puts their lives under the control of those who have preyed on them for years.

I will celebrate with the people of Skid Row and those who actually care for them, and have had a front row seat to this inhumane chaos for decades, who are calling me and telling my on the street, how grateful they are.

This is good insight

[Aakash Gupta @aakashgupta]

The best pitcher in baseball refuses to lift weights, warms up by throwing a javelin, and scouts hitters with a paper notebook. The Dodgers paid him $325 million and then hired his sensei too.

The notebook makes sense once you see the rest of his system.

Yamamoto trains under Osamu Yada, who has never told him to touch a barbell. Javelin throws instead of long toss. Handstands, back bridges, breathing work. The Dodgers studied the routine, decided they couldn't improve it, and hired Yada rather than change Yamamoto. During free agency, one team's recruiting gift to him was a team-logoed javelin, just to prove how deep their research went.

The results broke baseball's assumptions. Last November he threw 96 pitches in World Series Game 6, then came out of the bullpen and closed Game 7 the very next day.

Now look at the dugout. Every MLB club runs Hawk-Eye, a dozen cameras per stadium tracking spin, tilt, and swing path on every single pitch. Yamamoto has all of it on an iPad ten feet away.

He writes by hand anyway.

Japanese player development bakes this in. Kids keep baseball journals from little league on, charting every at-bat in their own words. The logic survives contact with analytics. League data tells you what a hitter does on average. A pitcher's own notes capture what that hitter did against him tonight, pitch by pitch, while the at-bat is still fresh. By the third time through the order, he's working from a document no analytics department can generate.

Mookie Betts watched this for two seasons. This spring he started throwing javelins too.

Baseball built the most surveilled playing field in sports. Its best October pitcher still trusts the notebook in his back pocket more.

[Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson]

The Dodgers are better than you. Smarter and deeper and more popular than you. You know it, they know it, there’s no point pretending otherwise.

So, yes, they went into the NLDS thinking aloud about the NLCS.

MLB is prepping for existential battle. Until then, the Dodgers - the dynasty at the center of the storm - say they’ve got one more in them.

“We can’t really think about that s—. We’ve just got to take care of business, win, and make everybody more mad.”
