@joefortunato @Super70sSports Yeah, but it’s too good for kids

@Super70sSports Toffifay would like a word… especially in the 70s!

If you aren’t a goddamn toffee enthusiast, sit this one out. I want accurate results. #science

@Super70sSports Heath has better branding. Skor is the one, though

@jeffpearlman Did I make the cut? You interviewed me about my memories from the press box at the ‘89 All-Star Game (no prob if not)

@emmaswiftsings @BarryDivola I caught up with Evan a couple of years ago, if you’re curious. nytimes.com/2019/05/14/sty…

@Moxjoe @LydiaCornell Then again, Joe, you like Wings more than the Beatles.

Do you want Daylight Saving time to be permanent?

Final point: -Let's say 49ers made the trade WITHOUT including last year's 1st-rounder, just 2022 + 2023. We'd say they gave up two 1st-round picks to move up to #3, right? -So how can anybody say adding the 2021 No. 1 is still only giving up two No. 1s? You can't. Three No. 1s.

@jeffpearlman I’d do Kareem over LeBron. People forget what a transformational player he was. Too smart, too prickly. And too much a product of the pre-self-branding age.

@JeffPassan Great piece. Totally agree.

Still true.

Now I hope you digital ID proponents realize that if this system, courtesy of the pandemic, is instituted, and if your government starts a war and you oppose that war, your movements through society could be severely curtailed. I do hope you realize that

"My choice feels like an act of love.” In an increasingly frightening world, many Americans are choosing not to have babies. But is that the best way to confront the climate crisis and political strife? By @AlexwilliamsNYC nytimes.com/2021/11/20/sty…

@uniformcritic All time favorite

Ron Guidry was really good. Throwing 94 mph in 1977. Best pitcher on the planet from ‘77-‘79?

I always wished I knew Marshall better and wrote more like him. Such a talent.

@timkawakami Of course! With the contributions of Trey Lance, Aaron Banks, Trey Sermon, Jalen Hurd, Javon Kinlaw, the sky was the limit for these guys!

Did 49ers Fans believe this team was going to run the table all the way to the Super Bowl???
