If you have to create a shared podium for the boy competing in the girls’ event, you’ve already admitted you know he isn’t a girl and that his participation is unfair. At that point, you're just seeking a public humiliation ritual for the girls.

Good details from @EliManning on decision to force trade from #chargers. He was right about GM/HC friction at that time.

I kept this story in my pocket for a long time.... In Pittsburgh, September 15th is Roberto Clemente Day. Every year the whole organization fans out across the city. It's like Christmas. Roberto's family is there, Vera and the boys. My first year as manager was 2011. We celebrated. We shook hands and moved on. We didn't win. 19 consecutive losing seasons. 2012 rolls around. Same day, same celebration. We had another losing season, our 20th consecutive. After the ceremony, Roberto Jr. walked over. "My mom wants to talk to you." We went into the dugout. Me, Vera, and her three sons. She spoke in Spanish. I played four years of winter ball so I understood enough. She wasn't angry, but she was passionate. And I kept hearing Roberto's number come up. Roberto Jr. translated. "My mother wants you to know that there cannot be a 21st losing season. That was Roberto's number. It would be a disgrace to his legacy." She was staring right at me. Before I could even think about what to say, words came out of my mouth: "I promise you, Vera. That won't happen." Roberto Jr. looked at me and said, "You made my mom a promise. I hope you can keep it." I said, "I hope I can keep it too." I didn't tell my coaches. I didn't tell the players. I told my wife. That was it. The next year, 2013, we broke the consecutive seasons losing streak. Ended it at 20. On Roberto Clemente Day that September, Vera came walking across that field. And I probably got one of the most meaningful hugs I've ever received in my life. The players did all the heavy lifting. I just got the hug. Some promises are worth making before you know if you can keep them. @Pirates

More proof why @Amanda_Balionis is the best interviewer in ⛳️ and as good as there is anywhere. She does not ask the "How do you feel" or the inane not-thought-out questions.

Thinking of Tony Gwynn on what would have been his 66th birthday. Will start with something I always enjoy sharing — this Gwynn weather map the San Diego Union-Tribune did to honor him. Forecast called for reign.

@CNN Hey @CNN from AI -- Pedestrians are typically found on sidewalks, crosswalks, or walking along the edge of roads. Says nothing about runways or tarmacs. Words, and the correct ones, matter.

Tony Gwynn was born on this date in 1960. An unparalleled hitter who K’d just 4.2% of the time, which is the 7th best rate in the last 100 years. Sadly he passed away 12 years ago…here’s his final career hit.

The winning time for Golden Tempo in today’s Kentucky Derby was 2:02.27. Secretariat’s winning time in 1973 was 1:59.4. That’s a difference of 2.87 seconds. That translates to Secretariat beating Golden Tempo by over 17 lengths. Big Red’s record stands after 53 years. Legendary.

Today in 1991, 44-year-old Nolan Ryan fires his 7th career no-hitter. With over 5000 career innings pitched on his odometer, the Express strikes out 16 Blue Jays including Hall of Famer Roberto Alomar to end it.
