Daughter (23) on a photoshoot for work this morning and tagging me in the family thread. I'm like ... yes?
She's wearing an old shirt of mine that she commandeered in high school.
And that's what it's like being a #girldad.
And there it is. #WorldSeries
I actually loved this show.
Mickey Mantle, Reggie Jackson, Willie Mays, Ernie Banks and Hank Aaron in Belvedere Bulldogs uniforms, filming "The Field," the Mr. Belvedere episode that opened the ABC sitcom's sixth season on September 16, 1989.
George Owens — a sportswriter played by Bob Uecker, himself a former big-league catcher — was coaching his son Wesley's team and pushing the boy hard; Wesley even cheated trying to measure up. George's own playing days had never put him on a field with the greats, so for his birthday Belvedere arranged the gift: the five legends turned up at Wesley's game the next day to take on the kids, with George alongside them. Johnny Bench, Harmon Killebrew and singer Robert Goulet suited up for the episode too.
The five men in this frame hit 3,026 home runs between them — Aaron's 755, Mays's 660, Jackson's 563, Mantle's 536 and Banks's 512. Four were already in Cooperstown; Jackson, the youngest of them and only two years retired, joined them in 1993. All five were first-ballot Hall of Famers. It was one of the last times Mantle ever pulled on a uniform — he died in 1995.
⚾ Five first-ballot Hall of Famers, 3,026 home runs between them, suiting up to play a kids' team on a sitcom — the greatest gathering of baseball legends ever on a TV show? 👇️
Welp - it’s gotta be dramatic or it’s the end of baseball for 2026.
16 hits to 3 hits. It’s more than Milwaukee pitching and great game planning, it’s totally mental for Tampa Bay now.
And it’s over.
Unless TB does something crazy dramatic tomorrow. Then they might win 4 in a row.

Whether it's the commissioner of Major League Baseball or the President of the USA, rich guys are gonna always help or "protect" other rich guys. Bottom line.
Just saw that Donnie Iris died. Ah! Leah! remains a fucking banger. I was 18 and we’d crank up the volume and sing at the tops of our lungs when the DJ would play it.

Back in the day a Brewer or two would take one to the ribs in a game like this when they’re seeing beach balls in the box. #worldseries
This is really unbelievable. The AL is just the NL’s bitch, I guess. #WorldSeries
The Hanes “Get Comfortable” campaign with hot people walking around in their underwear - I like. Great concept/execution.
Wildwood was really good. A visual feast for sure. But it lacked the emotional punch of most Pixar movies. 9/10. Go see it in the theater.
