I took my kids canvassing yesterday. Every time someone opened the door with a dog, my 10-year-old would insist that Sue Altman is more “pro-dog” than Tom Kean.

I’m told that my college embraces the teacher-scholar model for faculty. But it seems a lot more like the teacher-meeting attendee model these days.

Maybe I’ll take a break from obsessing about current events to do a little course prep! Now, let’s see what topic is on the syllabus for tomorrow. . .The election of 1860, secession, and the beginning of the Civil War. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Amazing news! Bill is not only an incredible scholar, but the most passionate softball player I know. He’s a wry wit, too. I once lamented to Bill that it was a shame Princeton had lost a particular professor. He retorted: “The cemeteries are littered with irreplaceable people.”

A coalition of activists and the college-educated isn’t a political party; it’s a dinner party. newrepublic.com/article/188107…

The Ravens and Steelers are making it hard to take my mind off of presidential politics — Jackson, Wilson, Washington, Johnson, Harrison, Jefferson…

RIP, Rickey. I once had longtime MLB veteran Mike Bordick speak to my “Baseball in American History” class. A student asked him to name the best player he ever played with or against. Bordick said Ricky Henderson because he could win a game all by himself. nypost.com/2024/12/21/spo…

You might respect and appreciate the owner of your favorite sports franchise. But only David M. Rubenstein takes the time to chat about presidential history with fans in the concourse.

Thus far, the Orioles are dealing with serious injuries to their best hitter (Gunnar Henderson), their best starting pitcher (Grayson Rodriguez), their top free agent acquisition (Tyler O’Neill), and their best setup man (Andrew Kittredge). Baseball is back!!!

I’m lecturing on the temperance movement right before spring break because the students need to realize that history is mostly a giant buzzkill.

Out of all the topics that I'm covering in my course on the early American republic this semester, I never would have thought that the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 would be the one that would be the most topical. Yet, here we are. youtube.com/watch?v=cqhr5p…

My dog’s March Madness bracket is predicated on every team with a feline mascot losing and every team with a canine mascot winning. It’s as good a strategy as any other.

Foreign companies should continue advertising their wares with pre-tariff pricing, but then alert the customer right before the purchase that there is also a new Trump Foreign Import tax of [XX]%, which, of course, needs to be factored into the final price.

In the Simpsons episode that famously predicted the Trump presidency - “Bart to the Future” - there is also a joke about India nuking Pakistan. 😬

There are now 3 active MLB managers with the name Craig: Craig Albernaz (Orioles) Craig Counsell (Cubs) Craig Stammen (Padres) No other MLB managers have had the first name Craig, though there was Roger Craig, who managed Padres (1978-79) and Giants (1985-92).
