Fun exercise—if you grew up as a kid in the early 90s watching the #Braves on TBS because you were a MLB addict—how many players from that golden era can you name without Google? 1991-1995. I got 15.
Otis Nixon. Terry Pendleton. Sid Bream. David Justice. Greg Olson. Maddux, Glavine, Avery, Smoltz, Kent Merker, Mark Wohlers. Mark Lemke. Jeff Blauser. Ron Gant. Brian Hunter.
Very proud of the Jeff Blauser pull. I couldn’t tell you what I had for lunch yesterday but I remember Blauser crushing as a shortstop.
Ron Gant’s arms 😆
Lemke!
Haha is this real? Press box caught fire?
Smoooooth
Otis Nixon climbing the wall. That was insane!
Every kid had this card and we’d never trade it because he was so hyped.
Call for the Tom Emanski instructional hitting video! #CrimeDog

I’ve watched this 20x tonight
I had this card!

This piece by @jilltucker detailing how a Ukrainian refugee found a SF middle school more traumatic than a warzone is worth your time. Schools, specifically middle schools are a mess post COVID lockdowns. Should be a national issue. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…

Hamlin asked his doctors “who won the game?” this morning. #BillsMafia
Doctors make point Hamlin communicates through writing due to breathing tube. Doctors told Damar—“Yes you won—you won the game of life!”
Re next steps—doctors want #DamarHamlin to be comfortably breathing on his own before any talk of discharge.
