“You’re killing me Smalls” I stopped by the neighborhood in SLC to see baseball holy ground. Visited The Sandlot site which is pretty much an empty lot you can’t get to & a shame they didn’t keep it up & the houses where Smalls, Benny the Jet & Ham Porter lived @SandlotBambino

Hearing MLB trade candidates with 1 year of control left — Logan Gilbert, Steven Kwan, Joe Ryan, Sandy Alcántara, et al — are unlikely to be moved for prospects this month, because teams aren’t sure what kind of 2027 season to expect. However, sources say pending free agents could be moved *for each other* as a way to balance the risk.

I am beyond disgusted by this vile and racist display. Diwali is an important holiday and our community should feel safe to celebrate it. This hateful display has no place in our city or this country.
HAPPENING NOW: Absolutely chaotic scene as conservative activists Jake Lang and Thomas Allen storm a Diwali Hindu celebration at the Seattle Center Armory. They held signs that read, "Deport All Dot Heads" and "Stop Hindu Replacement of Christians." I just spoke to both men who say they are concerned about American culture being overrun by false idol worshippers and H1-B fraudsters. Lang and Allen say they will be targeting other locations in the city this weekend. They have yet to announce details of their plans due to possible retaliation by Antifa and other far-left activists. Stay tuned. @JakeLang|@Tommy4Trump420

When being just and honest comes at a price, pay it. When forgiving seems like a defeat, forgive. When everyone tells you to think of yourselves first, do not be afraid to put yourselves in the last place. Be willing to give up time, money, comfort and plans to serve others. May those who see you find themselves asking: “Why do they live in this way? Where do they get this freedom? Why do they love one another so much?” #ApostolicJourney #Uruguay

U2’s The Edge wrote an ‘Elf’ sequel, says Andy Richter: “Somebody reached out to [producer Shauna Robertson] and said, ‘The Edge from U2 has written a sequel to ‘Elf,’ and he wants to talk to you about it. It’s the weirdest story, but apparently it was fully written. Somewhere in the world there is an Edge-penned ‘Elf 2’ out there… I would love for that to make the light of day. It never happened. It’s one of those things where she’s like, ‘All right, sure, I’ll meet him,’ and then it just petered out and never happened.” variety.com/2026/film/news/u…

My buddy Jared wrote a beautiful story about a POW soldier finally coming home to Sioux City after 83 years. Simply superb, and what a meaningful moment for that family.
On Saturday, after waiting 83 years, many of which were spent 8,000 miles away in the Philippines, the long-departed Fireman First Class Robert Glenn Shove got to come home. And family members from around the country were there to welcome him. siouxcityjournal.com/news/lo…

today, November 7, 2026, the shooting of President William McKinley is the exact halfway point of America's history as an independent nation. it happened 45,718 days ago, and 45,718 days after the Declaration of Independence was signed
Replying to @jfkplus60
FLASH: President McKinley has been shot! The man's handkerchief concealed a revolver, which he fired twice into the President's torso. McKinley turns pale, swoons, and is caught by his personal secretary, George Cortelyou.
