Sometimes, as my best buddy (37 years and counting), ⁦⁦⁦@CarrieSchwab⁩ is just too huggable.

@RobCGordo @HBO @celtics @NBA I appreciate your kind words about The Last Pass, RG.

[Gary M. Pomerantz @garympomerantz]

3 hours on camera for an upcoming ⁦@HBO⁩ doc on the ⁦@celtics⁩.⁩ Most questions were drawn from my book, THE LAST PASS, about Russ & Cooz and their years of empire. ⁦@NBA⁩ ⁦

A day at the beach with the new MLK bio by ⁦@jonathaneig⁩. I’m 300 pages in, enjoying it immensely. #KING

We’re on the red carpet last night with ⁦⁦Corporate Bro, the artist formerly known as Our Eldest. Ross lit up the big screen in SF with SALES ARE DOPE, his 8-episode Season 1. Check it out on YouTube.

@DougHeye @steelers Thanks for the kind words, Doug.

[Gary M. Pomerantz @garympomerantz]

As I researched my book Their Life’s Work about the 1970s @steelers, former teammates needed to know if I’d yet interviewed #FrancoHarris. Once I had, they agreed to talk to me. Franco was that respected, that loved. Classy, wonderful guy. #MrPittsburgh

Hey, @GlobeBobRyan, where were you on Wilt’s 100-point night 61 years ago? @NBA #Wilt1962

[Pete Croatto @PeteCroatto]

FYI: @garympomerantz's book on that historic night is outstanding. https://t.co/TcDlrS1jMb

“I just say to myself, ‘Make Litwack proud.’” 🌟

At a @UCBerkeley Library talk, journalist and author Gary M. Pomerantz spoke about writing, the Celtics, and the teaching “giants” who inspired him at Cal.

Here are 3 things we learned.

[Gary M. Pomerantz @garympomerantz]

So proud to speak @ my alma mater, @UCBerkeley to 200 library donors.I loved being intro’d as ‘former sports editor of the @dailycal.’ My topic, The Enduring Legacy of a Great Teacher, celebrated my History profs Leon Litwack & Larry Levine, campus legends #Emotional @UCBHistory

My first book, published more than a quarter century ago, lives deep within me still. #Atlanta

Dear Professor @jmwooldridge, It’s true that, for our coed team, I chose the name — The Smiths. Don’t forget, I also chose our second basewoman, now my bride of 37 1/2 years.

[Jeffrey Wooldridge @jmwooldridge]

Given the sad news, it's unsurprising "The Smiths" is trending. For the record, my softball team at Cal in 1981 was called The Smiths -- after the landlord of the apartment building most of us occupied. Pretty sure @garympomerantz chose the name. The Smiths band formed in 1982.

[Gary M. Pomerantz @garympomerantz]

Looking forward to participating in this Nov 15 event at @Stanford. Has it really been 40 years since The Play? 40 yrs since the trombonist @GaryTyrrell got pancaked? 40 yrs since the fake @dailycal filled the Sproul racks? Thanks to @tegbridges new book, there is much to discuss

[Gary Tyrrell @GaryTyrrell]

40 years? Yes, 40 years! Attend in person, or virtually, and re-live the glory and pain of the 85th Big Game, with @FarmHistory, @tegbridges, @garympomerantz, and an all-star panel. Tuesday, November 15, 2022, 4:30 PM PST https://t.co/7dF5D5xMdC

Such a joy to spend time on Fri with staffers at my alma mater, the @dailycal. The Daily Cal has existed since US Grant was president. With this energetic bunch, it’s in good hands. @UCBerkeley @RaineyTime

[kat shok 劉愷麟 @katherineshok]

day one of the first @dailycal boot camp went swimmingly! thank you to @jpanzar, @txtianmiller, @garympomerantz and @publiceditor for speaking and sharing so much with our staffers (and thank you @ChrisYingg for being a wonderful computer stand)

[Gary M. Pomerantz @garympomerantz]

Thanks for those kind words @mdbergin. Their Life’s Work was a joy to research and write. @steelers @NFL

[Mark Bergin @MarkBergin_]

Every @steelers fan should read @garympomerantz’s book.

It’s entertaining, hilarious and explains how the Pittsburgh Steelers have operated their franchise for generations. 🏈🖤💛 #HereWeGo

Exactly one week after she turned 100, Rachel Robinson — with help from son David — cut the ribbon during the ceremonial opening of her late husband’s museum in Manhattan. The Jackie Robinson Museum is finally open.

As #Celtics duo @jaytatum0 and @FCHWPO dig for their first #NBAChampionship, @garympomerantz discusses the 50s and 60s duo Bob "Cooz" Cousy and @RealBillRussell and what it took to become #Boston's 6x NBA Champions 👉 https://t.co/cGPC9xNDi6
