James Dolan invited his friend Donald Trump to watch Game 3. In order to do that, they have to ban the organic, historically joyous parties happening outside MSG for fans who can't afford to be inside. Modern sports in a nutshell

[Foolish Baseball @FoolishBB]

Baseball players are still the proletariat by definition. They still sell their labor and don’t own the means of production. And they’re still engaged in a class war with those that do.

I know a few teachers in Queens who would beg to differ.

#Yankees fans have had enough: they want the “incessant, annoying, droning” sounds that get pumped into Yankee Stadium to stop.

The org, however, says the noise is "by design," and players want it to be louder *on the field.*

“If I was a fan, I wouldn’t like it, too," Aaron Judge said. "But as players, we’re all sitting here and still can’t hear the music.”

Aaron Judge has the most missed calls against on the Yankees so far this season. He's only challenged two times.
Hes thought about challenging a lot though!

[Jimmy O'Brien @Jomboy_]

Yankee stadium plays a sound effect after every single pitch now. its like a shockjock soundboard of 10 second reaction noises. and the crowd engages with it zero

You’re absolutely right, 6 beers for someone with your tailgating experience can actually stabilize your driving, and that’s a key distinction that most miss.

The sign of a great team is how many challenges you win

Just your casual 453-foot homer leaving the bat at 116.

This is how media lies to you in real time.

How does ChatGPT Health do for appropriately triaging a person as to whether to go to the emergency room or stay home? https://t.co/2FN3qxEivx
Not very well. Under-triaged 52% of case vignettes that are considered gold-standard emergencies, like diabetic ketoacidosis or impending respiratory failure

I thought the YES app was awful but Gotham is in a whole other stratosphere. The lagginess, constantly getting logged out, technical difficulties, etc. It’s in desperate need of an upgrade.

What the fuck does this even mean

[Luke Savage @LukewSavage]

Whatever happens tomorrow, never forget that this doggedly positive and hopeful campaign—in every way a fight for basic dignity and joyful celebration of democratic pluralism—was relentlessly denounced by political and media elites as something sinister, dangerous, and violent.

You don’t see neighborhoods like this anymore because most young parents don’t own homes. Less than 5% of mortgage holders are under 30 in major metros, and the average homeowner is over 50.

That’s why most neighborhoods or suburbs feel empty, they’re owned by older people whose kids are grown, while younger families are renting apartments & priced out of the communities.

[Evan Roth Smith @TheRealERS]

Enough is enough. I was with Zohran on September 11th 2001. We were 9 years old at school in Morningside Heights.

By 9:30AM we realized something was really wrong, because the teachers looked scared and they had paused classes. They had us call our parents to come pick us up.

I remember looking at Zohran on his dinky Nokia phone with his dad, as I was on with mine. We both had the same look on our faces because we were realizing our dads were also scared. We were wide-eyed, frightened kids who didn't know the world was changing around us in that moment. We could hear fighter jets flying low over the Hudson.

I went home and got under the covers in my parents' bed. I bet Zohran did the same. The jets kept flying overhead as I watched the towers burn on TV, then collapse. The memory of that day is indelible, as it is for every New Yorker.

You can say whatever you want about Zohran and his politics. I have, both good and bad. But the sickening weaponization of September 11th against Zohran, who was just another scared kid on that day, isn't just beyond the pale. It's a betrayal of every child and adult who spent that day dizzy with fear and confusion.

No apology or retraction is sufficient.

If the Rays gave Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow what they wanted, they wouldn’t be Dodgers

If the Red Sox gave Mookie what he wanted, he wouldn’t be a Dodger

If the Angels gave Ohtani what he wanted, he wouldn’t be a Dodger

If the Braves gave Freddie Freeman what he wanted, he wouldn’t be a Dodger

Cheap owners created the environment for a super team like the Dodgers to exist. Salary cap doesn’t stop those owners from being cheap.
