In fairness, I thought Colbert's riffing on the Kennedy news was pretty tasteless and small too.

Colbert isn't a member of Congress representing Americans, of course.

Eight triple bogies in this round so far, well outpacing our five birdies.

Suddenly we're all duffing around like subliterates out there.

He should finally get some serious PT there. The Angels have, like, five injured infielders, along with Trout out of the lineup.

The Atlantic provided a brief but terrific tribute profile of Albini , giving equal space to Steve's commitment to the work alongside his late-career epiphany that he needed to find a way to correct his famously caustic personality. He was especially good at capturing an artist as though they were ...

I said they would be making a one-day trip to St. Louis in August and my wife asked if it was punishment for breaking Willson Contreras' hand.

See you August 5.

McNeil gets his blow and so does everybody elbus.

Some managers prefer to choose days adjacent to off days as rest days for players who otherwise play every day.

Not the way I would work it, but some tend to aim for 48-hour sitdowns to help a guy keep his legs under him.

It feels like Taylor hasn't seen a lot of lineups recently, so a warm welcome back to him. Interesting to see Wendle back in the lineup, two days after he kind of mysteriously disappeared. Doubly interesting that he's subbing for McNumpty, after Jeff had perhaps his best game of the season yesterday...

Look at poor, lonely Pete Alonso on that card, standing there waiting for someone to return his daps.

Sam Moore, Bobby King, and Bobby Hatfield appear on the album, but the credits don't suggest they are on that track.

Credits have been wrong, o' course.

Brooce does the all the vocals, lead and background, and all of the guitars. Randy Jackson is on bass and Toto's Jeff Porcaro on drums.

He's also on trial for using bookkeeping fraud to pay off people who were lying.

I know I've had sexual encounters and I'm not on trial.

This was my first time seeing it. Tip of the fedora to Donald Sutherland, who appears after the halfway point in the movie and conveys a whole second film's worth of information in about 10 minutes.

Predicting two new pitchers join the team today. I'll say Yohan Ramirez and ... Josh Walker.

The most famous Mets Alabaman I can think of was Cleon Jones. Well, nobody's more famous than Willie Mays, but yeah, Cleon played one season of football with A&M, with varying reports having him scoring between 19 and 24 touchdowns. When he told his coach he was leaving, the guy said he begged ...

Starliner launch rescheduled for May 17 as they haul in the rocket to change a suspect valve.

I tried to convince them to let Chewbacca do it mid-flight, but alas.

I'm guessing Yohan Ramirez gets activated and Cole Sulser demoted before his head hits the pillow.

When the Mets win AND the starting pitcher is the one credited with the W, we should all get free pizza.

Some nights, you got nothing, and you've got to keep throwing pitches.

Here's to you, Adam Otto.

Goldie chasing garbage is a pretty good friend too.

Box checked.

That's great. I didn't want to see this kid embarrassed in front of his crazy mom, so give him the strikeout of Lindor and then the big punch from Alonso.
