Watching all these teams these past few years win their first ever championship or their first championship in a lifetime…man, what I wouldn’t give to see the Suns finally win it

Mike Hazen 100% deserved to be fired after trading him, and then 110% deserved it again after passing on him in free agency this year

Paul Goldschmidt ($4M) is one of the best free agent signings. On his way to the Hall.

Was my tinfoil hat take on 98.7 true? 🤔🤔🤔

This is probably me putting on a tinfoil hat, but KMVP-FM (98.7) ratings have been down for a while. They're also owned by Bonneville Radio, which is entirely based out of Salt Lake City, UT, a state that now owns our hockey club. Are they trying to dismantle our franchises?

Took the kids to the Salt River last night. “This is our drinking water,” I told them as they swam. “And our toilet water?” my eldest asked.
“…yes, son. Yes it is.”

The best compliment I can give a piece of writing is that it made me want to write. The second best compliment I can give a piece of writing is that it made me want to take a bath. Anyway, congrats to @andrewbertaina for earning both of these compliments for his essay “On Baths”

Enjoyed the whole collection, The World Will Never Run Out of Strangers, by @jonwaddy @CowboyJamboree. But this story was such a fun concise story as a sports lover who also writes.

I’m not gonna lie to you, until this whole Chicago Bears stadium fiasco, I had no idea Indiana was so close to Chicago 😂

On the plus side for the Knicks they’ve got a guy with first hand experience of losing a 2-0 NBA Finals lead. On the minus side, I had to root for the team that gave him that learned experience.

Could’ve used this mentality about 5 years ago, Mikal.
Mikal after going up 2-0 in the finals:
"0-0. Stay desperate at all times"

These two led the Diamondbacks to the World Series less than three years ago.
Now they have 2 of the 9 highest SP ERA's in MLB (min. 50 IP)

Watching this DBacks/Nationals game and I realize I still have PTSD from attending Brandon Pfadt’s All-Hitter last year

"Ross McMeekin’s novel Pepperleaf offers sharp perspective on modern suburban life."
Today I have an annotated playlist accompanying Pepperleaf in Largehearted Boy. Thanks to David Gutowski for having me! largeheartedboy.com/2026/06/…
