My takes after the NBA Finals: 1. Congrats to Villanova University. 2. Knicks fans have waited a long time for this. They should be happy. 3. But also -- Sixers fans have been asked to be patient and "trust" for too long with no reward. I hope that changes.

The Phillies bullpen outside of Duran is simply not compatible with the idea of winning a championship. Not even close.

Had the chance to meet @billritter7 a few years back. I’d watched the 11pm that night from outside the studio they had then. He could not have been nicer to an aspiring journalist. Just an amazing human being. Praying for him tonight after this news.

Absolutely ridiculous choke from the San Antonio Spurs. Legitimately feel horrible for that fanbase.

Sure, basketball is a game of runs. But it's almost coaching malpractice to be on the wrong side of a 20-4 run and NOT CALL A TIMEOUT!!!

The Spurs have life!

I’ve gotta give props to ESPN for actually using an open going into the NBA Finals. Sets the tone perfectly, in my opinion.

The Philadelphia Phillies have scored more than four runs in a game!!!

Everyone likes to rib Philadelphia fans for being harsh. THIS is the reality — you give it your all every time, and the fans will applaud and respect that.
I don’t know if I’ve ever seen somebody get a standing ovation for allowing a run. Cristopher Sanchez smiles as his streak ends. What a moment for the lefty. He’s in baseball history forever.

What a run by Christopher Sanchez. It was going to end eventually — but wow!

SOME NEWS: I've joined the team @CBSPhiladelphia as a multi-skilled journalist. My first story yesterday was about a gas-powered leaf blower ban that is starting in Lower Merion. It's supposed to be slowly phased in over the next couple of years.

Being back home -- in a place I interned at in college -- is really cool. But I also want to thank the team at @KDKA. It was a blessing to be a small part of such an incredible group of journalists.

Lastly, I also want to thank the people who continued to watch over there every day. I hope I was able to do my part in helping you be informed. Local news is still so powerful because of the bond it can build in a community -- and I think KD is a prime example of that.

The Jeff Hoffman experience has been bonkers to witness.

that’s a real “generational hate watch.”
This Chelsea fan flew all the way from Kenya to Budapest to HATE WATCH Arsenal in the UCL final 😭 Pre-match coverage of the UCL Final live from Budapest starts 10am ET streaming free on CBS Sports Golazo Network, and continues 11am on CBS, or catch it all on @paramountplus 📺

congrats to you, @lukeradel!
Excited to share that I’m joining @MeidasTouch full-time as Executive Producer for @MacFarlaneNews and a DC-based on-air reporter role — but I’ll have more to say about that other job soon enough! Huge thanks to Scott, @meiselasb, @BMeiselas, and the entire MTN team!
