Shohei Ohtani 『I don't mind criticism directed at me, but character denial or unrelated attacks feel harsh. As a pro, I accept whatever's said about my performance alone. Not every player is the same. Consideration is key everywhere.』 Really strong people are truly kind...

This edit deserves an Oscar.

I apologize to the 41,564 donors to my 2020 congressional campaign. After the campaign ended, then Lt Gov Fetterman's senatorial campaign staff contacted me and asked if I would share my donor list with Fetterman, and I agreed to do so. I sincerely regret whatever part I had in helping to elect @JohnFetterman in 2022. nbcnews.com/politics/congr…

This old lady handed her bank card to the teller and said "I would like to withdraw $10". The teller told her "For withdrawals less than $100, Please use the ATM." The old lady wanted to know why... The teller returned her bank card and irritably told her "These are the rules, please leave if there is no further matter. There is a line of customers behind you." The old lady remained silent for a few seconds and handed her card back to the teller and said "Please help me withdraw all the money I have." The teller was astonished when she checked the account balance. She nodded her head, leaned down and respectfully told her "You have $300,000 in your account but the bank doesn't have that much cash currently. Could you make an appointment and come back again tomorrow.?" The old lady then asked how much she could withdraw immediately. The teller told her any amount up to $3000. "Well please let me have $3000 now." The teller kindly handed $3000 very friendly and with a smile to her. The old lady put $10 in her purse and asked the teller to deposit $2990 back into her account. The moral of this story is, Don't be difficult with old people, they spent a lifetime learning the skill.!!

Hot take for new White Sox park: Just swap parking lots. Build a new ball park across the street from the Rate in Lot B where Old Comiskey once stood. Then, 30-40 years later, tear that one down and build a new one across the street where The Rate once stood.

@ddgrbb They have more than one. Fog will probably still rear its ugly head.

@Howard_Cole Uni is much better than the previous city connect

Old Dodgers friend alert.

Admiral Yamamoto, seen here realizing he’d totally forgot to tell Trump he was going to attack Pearl Harbor.

@podoffame Well, criticism following a World Series triumph isn’t really a thing. What’s the critique, “Ohtani prevented the Dodgers from sweeping”? C’mon. Equally as important, Ohtani played with a shoulder injury which would require surgery shortly after that World Series.

1. Winning helps hide poor performance 2. Ohtani went 9-27 in the 2025 WS with 3 HR. Judge just has had the one poor World Series performance where his team lost. Until he at least plays big in a World Series, the criticism will continue.

No comment.

The Iran war is looking so bad for Trump and Israel right now. They may need to release the Epstein files as a distraction.

He was certainly afraid of Vietnam-style combat in Vietnam.

I think this is when he “smelled war”

Dear Pam Bondi, The Dow is under 46K. Can we now investigate credible accusations of pedophilia?
