Perhaps the Euro-football snob in me, but I long for the days when the roar of a crowd can stand on its own without piped-in music and yelling and chaos. Do fans really need to be told to yell?
Love this letter to the editor: “More than any other major U.S. sport, baseball could, and should, offer a respite from a world flooded with noise. … let the game breathe, embracing its natural rhythms.”

Lamar Jackson just had one of the most unique and awesome QB seasons we’ve ever seen and didn’t win MVP simply because voters probably didn’t want to give him the award on back to back years and preferred to give it to a first time winner? Pretty sure majority of the NFL world would agree Lamar deserved it
Finished the Wire last night few thoughts
-Fantastic show great all the way through despite losing some major players midway through
-SEASON 2 is the best hands down the Polak's story is sweet plus I love how close Lester and the crew got to the connect
This commercial feels like it’s missing a step. Like why are they standing outside their parents’ door in the first place? It makes no sense. These are my thoughts during 2 blowout games.
Really feel for Beau Breault. Played his ass off. Made some unreal par saves. Just got beat by two birdies.
His wife who is a nurse was on the bag for him.
In 2019 he lost in a seven hole playoff for a spot here. Now an 8 hole.
And after the playoff he thanked me for following along.
Here is to him getting a shot soon.
Delighted that plunking Gunnar Henderson as retaliation for Judge getting hit on what was not a purposed pitch cost the Yankees a game. Judge accuses. Verdugo threatens, Yanks bluster.
Gunnar says nothing, jogs to first, steals second, scores. O's win by a run.
Class will out.
With a week off between F1 races, Valtteri Bottas just completed the UNBOUND Gravel race in Kansas.
• 108 miles
• 5 hours 26 minutes
• 5,000 ft of elevation
• 4,600 calories burned
Bottas placed 33rd out of 1,400+ riders overall and 2nd in his age group.
Super impressive.
The chorus from fans after a poor call is often the same: robot umps.
The players aren’t so sure.
On a full robot system, a challenge system or the status quo, a dive into the issues and concerns that come with changing the “human element” of the game:

Could the Ravens be playing on Sunday Night at home September 8th?
Orioles have moved their game that sunday from 1:35 to 12:05.
Ravens & Orioles have never played on the same day, but this could make a lot of sense.
