If I were playing I would have simply made sure I hit the ball over the fence in the playoffs at Yankee Stadium in front of Dua Lipa.
But that’s just me. I guess I’m built different.
The MLB Home Run Derby is so much better without the clock, both for the players (not having to swing at essentially every pitch due to time constraints) and the viewers (not having to endure ridiculous whiplash-inducing editing, being able to marvel at the tremendous home runs).
If Max Scherzer gets 7 more strikeouts, he will push “The Big Train” Walter Johnson out of the top 10 in career strikeouts for the first time in ~110 years.
Johnson became the career strikeout king in 1920 and remained so for 63 more years until he was finally surpassed in 1983.
Roman Anthony hit a home run on the anniversary of Caesar’s death. America really is the Third Rome.
Mahomes saw all the stats about Brady never taking a snap while eliminated from the playoffs so he had his knee explode to make sure he wouldn’t take a snap the rest of the season.
Babe Ruth pitched a 14 inning shutout in the World Series, but went hitless as a batter.
Babe Ruth twice hit 3 home runs in a World Series game, but didn’t pitch in either.
Ohtani really is a unicorn.
Owens himself said he was treated far better by Hitler/Germany than by FDR/America.
Hitler rose and waved at him & Germans wanted his autograph. Whereas in America Owens had to go to the Olympic ceremony at the Waldorf Astoria via the goods elevator. Not even a telegram from FDR

South African farmer Theo Bekker (79) was brutally murdered by 4 thugs yesterday
The attackers beat him with an iron bar, slit his throat, and then beat his wife Marlinda
This came 24 hours after EFF leader Julius Malema told a crowd of 90k people to “kill the Boer (Whites), kill the White farmer”
Alternatively, every country on Earth should be executing drug traffickers and dealers (and many other criminals) summarily if necessary.
There is no downside to this.
The authorities in Singapore must stop carrying out unlawful executions in the name of drug-control. There is no evidence that the death penalty has a unique deterrent effect on crime or that it has any impact on the use and availability of drugs. It's high time for abolition.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The claim that the executions were unlawful is factually incorrect, because capital punishment is legal in Singapore.
Moreover, a large majority of the Singaporeans (more than 80%) support the death penalty.
