@kfolan @UNDPress Thanks, Kevin! Check out the book's acknowledgements page for an all-too-brief mention of you, Rachel, and the kids. I could have gone on for pages about how grateful I am for all of you.

Had the great honor of meeting two of my childhood heroes tonight: @keithhernandez and Ron Darling. Both were kind to me and generous enough to pose for this photo…an absolute keeper for me. #lgm

Such a thrill to be back in a brick-and-mortar classroom @Georgetown for the first time since March 5, 2020. Looking forward to the year ahead. #HoyaSaxa

Are the @Mets accepting nominees for cutest fan ever? If so, meet my youngest niece, Tess. I assure you, she’ll be a gracious winner.

Bob Gibson, one of the all-time great pitchers in @MLB history, died yesterday. I’ve always loved a great quotation from @TheVinScully about him, a line that I first saw at @baseballhall: "Bob Gibson pitches as though he’s double parked." RIP.

[Peter Folan, S.J. @pmfolan]

Tom Seaver: the first player to make the @Mets relevant. Requiescat in pace.

[Peter Folan, S.J. @pmfolan]

I wonder what the make percentage on this one was....

Classes began at @Georgetown yesterday, but the courses I’m teaching start today. Looking forward to spending the semester with what I’m sure will be two great groups of students.
