A reality exists where the Tigers go on an absolute heater & JV pitches them into the wildcard with 8 strong innings on the final Saturday of the season & Kenley comes onto lock down his 500th career save & McGonigle goes 4-5 to lock down ROTY
President Bush throws the first pitch of Game 3 of the 2001 World Series after 9/11
As silly as it sounds, it was important for him to throw a strike. No matter what you think of him, that was clutch/badass. Used the regulation rubber as well. Big time...
25 years later and I still think this is the greatest ceremonial first pitch ever
Dolly Parton made the best chicken and dumplings I ever ate. On lunch break she would knock on my trailer door with melt-in-your-mouth dumplings, biscuits, gravy, green beans.Every day it was a southern feast. I had never seen an actor actually use the cooking facilities in their trailer before but she had it all going on. I still have Dolly’s Tupperware…
On 4/23/03 The White Stripes played Jolene by Dolly Parton on their second week long night on “Late Night with Conan O’Brien”. It was the first time I heard Jolene. My mother told me it was a song by Dolly. My maternal grandmother found her record with it and played it for me. Months later in November. I stood front stage center to the last show of the Elephant tour. And they played Jolene. Moment Jack White played it I heard a woman shout “It’s Jolene!”. Thank you for writing that song Dolly. So many memories attached to it. I’m sure going to miss you! Rest in peace. 💔😢❤️🤍🖤🎸🥁
I'm sorry we never got a chance to meet, but getting this note from Dolly really had a an impact on me. She definitely didn't have to take the time to do it. Even for a kid who mostly listened to rap music, she was an icon. A superstar in every sense. Rest easy Dolly. And thank you for the kind words.
On this day in 1973, filming began on episode No. 106 of The Brady Bunch, titled “The Cincinnati Kids,” at Kings Island. The cast and crew spent five days, August 20-24, capturing scenes throughout the park during its second year of operation. The episode remains one of the most-watched and beloved of the entire series, which aired for five seasons from 1969 to 1974 and has been in syndication for the past 52 years.
Barry Williams, reflecting on filming the episode at Kings Island in 1973, shared with me, “It was one of the most exciting times in our filming history because we got to step outside the soundstage at Paramount Studios and explore Cincinnati. It’s a fun episode with not much of a plot — Jan loses the plans, and the rest of the episode follows everyone searching throughout the park, creating a lasting connection between the Bradys and Kings Island that has resonated across multiple generations.”
I love revisiting this episode—it instantly takes me back to Kings Island’s early days, especially as the Brady kids race through the park searching for the poster tube with Mike Brady’s lost drawings. Have you seen it? If so, what’s your favorite scene?
Remember when HBO made the best basketball show of all time about the Showtime Lakers with the best casting you’ve ever seen and Adrian Brody as Pat Riley and they just fucking canceled it
No matter the weather, Freddie Freeman opts on wearing a long sleeve shirt which is to honor the memory of his late mom and a reminder of the skin cancer that took her life.
And to think you couldn’t like Freddie anymore than you currently do and you hear this story. Truly touching tribute
The MLB isn't a serious league until they fix their TV revenue sharing. In sports, the idea isn't to give unfair advantage, otherwise it isn't sport. @theoddsbreakers#Dodgers#Brewers
