@AngieMentink So glad you're doing better, Angie! Take care of yourself.... and keep being you! 💪 BTW, watched Chase in the state tournament a couple weeks ago. He's a good player and looks like a good kid. You should be proud!

I'm excited to announce that on Monday I'll start a new chapter with the @latimes, covering the Dodgers. It's a paper I grew up admiring as a West Coast girl. I'm honored to be joining such an impressive sports staff and looking forward to covering another historic franchise.

Personal news: This is my last week at the @Suntimes. It's been an amazing four years at the paper and six covering the Cubs. I've worked with so many wonderful people and have fallen in love with Chicago. It's going to be hard to say goodbye. Thank you all for following along!

What a game! Especially for sophomore superstar Davion Shareef-Dulaney @Certified_dav1k 32 points, silky step-back 3s—game-winning block at the buzzer. Lincoln of Tacoma Abes 64-62 over Eastside Catholic in 3A boys state semifinals I called live with @MazvitaMaraire on KJR 950AM

J.P. Crawford’s leadership extended beyond the Mariners’ clubhouse this offseason -- when Ryan Bliss and his new wife, Kate, asked him to officiate their wedding. “We’ve always been boys. But we’re family now.” mlb.com/news/jp-crawfo…

Based off what NFL players are tweeting sounds like tragic and ominous news about Rondale Moore

@gbellseattle @seanrobinson1e4 I covered Mark when he was playing hoops at Newport High in Bellevue and then when he started out at UW. He was a special first-class dude then and it's great to see where he's taken his career.

I wish Kentucky basketball coach Mark Pope made decisions for all of traditional, true journalism, for those of us that remain in it. This is so insightful. And right on:
Lee K. Howard ☀️@HowardWKYT

What advice does Mark Pope have for young, aspiring journalists? I’m teaching an upper‑level journalism course at #UK this semester, and on Thursday, I took my class to Pope’s press conference. I asked him what guidance he’d give the next generation of journalists. His answer was worth hearing.

So this happened: Spent all night in UW Medical Center ER, now admitted for an infection blowing up my right hand. Big IV antibiotics trying to avoid a hand surgery I kinda could do without the week of NFC championship game. 1st @933KJR #Seahawks segment from a hospital bed!🤨😳

I'll file this date in my personal memory bank: Jan. 7, 2026. After some time away to reflect and form a new gameplan, my @TheAthletic journey has officially begun. My debut is on why the sports column matters -- and why I'm still writing one: nytimes.com/athletic/69468…

Bummed that Cal Raleigh didn't win AL MVP, but this wasn't an East Coast bias thing. Of the 10 AL East voters, it was a 5-5 split between Raleigh and Judge. In AL West, also a 5-5 split. Difference came from AL Central voters (7-3 for Judge).

@cougsgo I also was a right-handed Lenny in my youth. At least in my mind and driveway. Such a good role model and representative of Seattle hoops.

Sad news about Lenny Wilkens. Didn’t care that I was right-handed, still tried to pretend I was him in my driveway. Very cool when he coached a kids’ team I was on at the Bob Houbregs summer camp at Fort Casey on Whidbey Island. Legend and a class act. #GoCougs

Great day for the Seahawks, but I'm bummed by the Lenny Wilkens news. RIP 19. One of my first sports heroes growing up and a true Seattle sports legend.

@PNW1122 Yeah, I was wrong. You can go to bed. Though I assume you've been asleep since your Yankees went down. 🤣

@RyanDivish @DKramer_ Only if you could have saved me a spot on that last-minute flight to Toronto ... and a couple drinks at the Loose Moose tonight. Enjoy the journey and try to grab some sleep!

A tip of the cap to @DKramer_, @RyanDivish and all the writers who had to write and rewrite - and write and rewrite - their game stories over 15 insane innings, jump into the postgame maelstrom, re-do excellent stories once again and, somewhere in there, book flights to Toronto!
