Better late than never! Very, very cool to see Monopoly's inventor Lizzie Magie get the @NYTimes obituary treatment. nytimes.com/2024/04/12/obi…

In Sunday's @nytimes, I write about my hometown minor league baseball team's fight for survival. The Eugene Emeralds aren't alone, it turns out. What does this mean for blue collar sports fans? Come for the Sasquatch, stay for the Grateful Dead. nytimes.com/2024/04/07/bus…

As an alum of @NYTSports this is inducing a tangle of feelings. That job changed my life and I hope amidst the shuffle, cultivating more opportunities for diverse candidates to cover sports – and equally paying them – will be a priority. nytimes.com/2023/07/10/bus…

One of the more bizarre chapters of Monopoly's history is the mystery of the 40,000 Anti-Monopoly games buried in Minnesota. Kudos, @StarTribune, for sleuthing out the current whereabouts! I've been thinking about this far too much for 14+ years. startribune.com/anti-monopoly-…

The Longest Race debuts at #7 on the NYT bestseller list. Thanks to everyone who made it happen. And this is a win for the beat. Stories about and by women in sports matter – to everyone. @karagoucher

Happy pub date to "The Longest Race," a story that has been years in the making. I know it's changed how I see running, @Nike, the Olympics and more. Hear @karagoucher discuss on @GMA today.
