Happy 60th birthday to Hall of Famer Patrick Ewing! Here's a picture of the two of us when we were a bit younger: Georgetown graduation, 1982. Patrick had just finished his freshman year. I was 8. Happy birthday, Patrick! I've been cheering for you for 40 years. Go Hoyas!

@Super70sSports No sky point for Catherine O’Hara? A Super 70s guy who likes comedy but didn’t like SCTV?

It was not a hoax, I cannot be bullied, I am not done, and this is why those in power are doing everything in their power to defeat me.

The Hoyas got their mojo back with that big comeback against Providence. Three Big East wins in a row now! Keep it up, Hoyas!

@ashishkjha @dunkindonuts Superficial people are obsessed by winter weather. I love Boston and I love Chicago, where I live, too. They are fantastic world-class cities even if it sometimes gets cold.

The Hoyas are a different team with Vince on the floor. I’m a believer. Too bad he couldn’t play all those games. But I’m glad he’s healthy and he’s playing so well now.

Catherine’s knowledge of humanity was always at the center of her comedy, no matter how absurd the character or loopy the material. She could play heartless because she was warm, brainless because she was brilliant, careless because she truly cared. Everyone loved her and everyone learned from her. This is a deep loss.

"I hope and pray to leave this world too someday and to have a place near God as near as any other soul with the exception of John Candy." Catherine O'Hara's eulogy for John Candy just hits harder today.

spending 3 weeks on the northeast corridor has really solidified for me how much of an outlier chicago is in the us. you’ve got this one row of high-density pre-car cities with high transit usage (for the us), one midwest city built like that 720mi away, and nothing else similar

This is why I love #LiveTV 🤣🤣 - you just never know what you’ll get sometimes! A #coyote casually crosses the street in the back of my live shot while I’m reporting on a #mountainlion captured & released… What a wild day!

Also, and this would be a 50 tweet thread if I really let loose: sports matter. They matter more than ever when we can’t seem to figure things out in the traditional civic settings. They provide joy and hope and inspiration, they force conversations.

The Post is the team that drafted me. I’ve only ever worked one place since schools. And whatever happens, the gratitude I feel for having spent more than a decade here will never dissipate. But right now, I’m angry. Furious, actually.
