I don't understand how investigating the invasion of the U.S. Capitol building is a partisan issue.

Kudos to Simone Biles not only for doing what she felt was right, but for having the courage to say why. It had to be an incredibly difficult decision made under pressure, and I respect her for making it.

We are watching US women’s volleyball in a tight match with China and NBC Sports thinks it’s wise to cut away to talk to a retired NASCAR driver talk about the food at the watch party? WTH? So who won the set?

Wait a minute - Hurricane Ida killed more people in New York than in New Orleans, where it actually hit? How does that work?

Three times this week I have seen people use the word "exasperating" when they mean "exacerbating." They don't mean the same thing. #copyeditor

It's a Linkin Park kind of day.

Now this is joy. Enjoy.

If we had seen this level of negotiations in December instead of March, we would be in Spring Training by now. Why the lack of urgency back then, MLB and MLBPA?

Tigers have optioned Akil Baddoo to Toledo and recalled Rony Garcia. Baddoo is hitting just .140 so far this season. A needed reset.

And the Tigers lose again. It’s hard to convince my kid it’s just a rough spell when I know it would take a serious, sustained hot streak to have a shot at the playoffs. And half the lineup is under .200, so I’m not holding my breath.

Finally, a sunny couple of days. Maybe we'll get our game in this afternoon without drama!

Also, looking forward to picking up a new book by my friend Connie Berry. More info here! buckeyecrimewriters.org/member-book-re…

I went to order Connie Berry's new book last night and found a whole Kate Hamilton box set! How cool is that!

Y'know, I've got bigger problems, but watching the #detroittigers thrive this year was meant to be my escape. Pitching's great, but the offense is terrible. I wish I had it in me to tune out for a bit, but I don't.

How many stupid blunders can one team make? Cleveland Browns

The line at Tim Horton's this morning was significantly longer than the line at the polls.
