absolute talent. Les made many A1 and Sports front pages shine with his excellent work.
Today is my last at The Washington Post. My job was eliminated in February along with the rest of the sports department, but my layoff was extended through September. The Post had one of the greatest collections of sports journalists ever. Working with each of them was an honor.

On the morning of Feb. 4, Wash Post had almost 800 in newsroom -- NOTUS had 45. Now, as NOTUS become Washington Sun, there's 110 and growing in the newsroom. My old shop is half its previous size. Give us a chance, we are growing and covering the DMV. nytimes.com/2026/09/08/busin…

Excellent work.
With an appearance at linebacker today against Ball State, Zach Hayes became the first Ohio State Club Football alum to appear in an @OhioStateFB game in a non-special teams situation since Chris Booker at WR in 2021. Congrats on a memorable Senior Day, Zach!

Will Howard could've used this "actual game clock" that no one else knows about vs Oregon.
In the disputed play in the WMU-Michigan game, the clock shown on NBC was, apparently, not in sync with the actual game clock that officials in the Big Ten replay center used, per a video the league distributed. More on Week 1's controversial 1 second - bit.ly/4qVMn6b

I will post this every year because it's still the funniest, and most 'spot on', winter forecast I have seen. 😁👇 From the mind of @wxbrad

This reporting should chill every American to the bone. The Trump Administration owes the public answers – Americans do not support extrajudicial attacks in our name. We need transparency and accountability for these strikes, NOW. washingtonpost.com/investiga…

The Washington Post has solved the months-long mystery of attacks on three fishing boats near the Galapagos. They're part of a covert CIA program, with a spy plane -- w/ its ownership hidden behind an LLC -- oriented toward each boat before the strikes wapo.st/4wYbG9R

Contrary to Trump claims, documents obtained by @maxinejoselow & @Fahrenthold show that while two cuts in foam were found in the reflecting pool, they were not directly related to the coating that is now peeling or the algae that has turned the pool green. nytimes.com/2026/06/23/us/tr…

NEW: The cost of President Trump's plan to repair the Reflecting Pool has jumped by 88 percent, to $13.1M, gov't records show. The price appears to include a 20 percent profit margin for Trump's handpicked contractor, who got the job in a no-bid contract. nytimes.com/2026/05/11/us/po…

A truly incredible and historic day in Toledo. Vincent Mauri — a 25-year-old former college runner from Warren, Ohio — does not have a coach or a sponsor or even a long-distance pedigree. He had never run a half marathon, let alone a full one. On a Sunday for the ages at the Glass City Marathon, he ran one of the greatest races in American history. Mauri did not just break the GCM record by ... more than 13 minutes, or obliterate the Ohio marathon record, too. He became the fourth American ever to break 2:06.
