“The saddest baseball card ever made.” Truth.

[Kevin Glew @coopincanada]

#OTD 40 years ago, the Montreal Expos traded Gary Carter to the New York Mets for Hubie Brooks, Mike Fitzgerald, Herm Winningham and Floyd Youmans.

The trade inspired O-Pee-Chee to produce what I've heard Expos fans call "the saddest baseball card ever made."

See below.

This is the absolute worst version of the “Guess Who?” game I’ve ever seen.

Perfection.

“.. 🐍 Simmons was a large, rangy goaltender who had a penchant of roaming far from his goal crease to play the puck or cut off shooting angles. This would often result in either spectacular saves or embarrassing goals allowed into an open net..”

I appreciate this thoughtful perspective that reflects on what Saskatoon has/is doing well and rejects the “broken city” narrative espoused by some who want to lead this city. @charlieclarkyxe

Willie Mays made “The Catch” on this date in 1954. Seventy years later, it’s as impressive now as it was back then.

#OTD in 1955, Jackie Robinson and Yogi Berra met at home plate during the first game of the World Series. The result of said meeting has been a topic of debate ever since. Here's my painting of the moment, based on the gorgeous photography of Mark Kauffman.

THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION was released 30 years ago this week. One of the most popular films ever made, and among the greatest Stephen King adaptations, the making of story has as many secrets aI s a Rita Hayworth poster…

Teachers are doing everything they can to make sure our kids get the support they need. But they can't do it alone.
This fall, we encourage you to vote for better funding for public schools in the provincial and school board elections. 🗳️

Cellphones can be a distraction.

Especially when used by a premier and his minister to distract from their last in the nation record on Education.

It’s time to get Saskatchewan out of last place on Education.
