Those of us who love both sports despair of the binary crowd on both sides…e.g the ‘rounders’ crowd. Jomboy does a great job here trying to use measured reason and rhetoric (obviously doomed to fail 😂)
The Cricket vs Baseball debate is HOT right now. As someone who loves and understands both sports here are my thoughts.

NEW BBC pushes again for a date for President Trump to give his deposition in defamation suit. It was originally Oct 16 - but Trump said "matters of national importance" meant he would be unavailable. BBC lawyers rather dryly say they now know what those "matters of national importance" were ...

Zelensky: If President Trump really wants to have elections, tell Putin to give us two months, 60 days of a total ceasefire, and we will organize elections. Of course, we will be ready for any choice of our people

The BBC published more than 100 articles, broadcasts and videos across online, TV and radio containing serious and false defamatory allegations about my husband and me, yet it has published or broadcast ZERO coverage of its High Court apology or the damages paid to our chosen charities. (1/)

BAIER: The president says SI. Are you into SI or AI? BEZOS: I do like SI. Artificial is not a very flattering thing. Nobody wants an artificial sweetener

As everyone's been saying, the problem with Britain is that not enough wealth is concentrated in property, the housing market is too fluid, the Treasury has too much revenue, and we need to shift more wealth to London and the south east
Removing Inheritance Tax on first homes is a big tax break for the top 5% of wealthiest families, almost all of them living in London and the South East, paid for by everybody else.

I think having President Obama AND the Pope rooting for you is just greedy!
Congrats @WhiteSox — let’s keep it going!

Maybe the Jays dodged a bullet 😂 @BlueJaysFansUK @HLTCO
Did not expect a complete mutiny in the #RedSox clubhouse after the loss but that's exactly what happened. Wow.

My fellow American patriots, we need to make Jack Smith the next Attorney General of the United States of America. Testifying to the Senate Judiciary Commitee, Jack Smith is conducting a masterclass on the rule of law — highlighting the overwhelming evidence of Trump's criminal behavior and treasonous attempt to overthrow American democracy. "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 presidential election, President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power" "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

There are only two historically acceptable send-offs for legendary pitchers. One is having his wife and kid run out to the mound. The other is letting him shout his coach off the mound. We have had the distinct privilege of witnessing both.
Max Scherzer refuses to leave the game after his 104th pitch. ⚾️♥️
