Check out the number of Mannings who were paroled at siege of Vicksburg. Yes, they are related to the football family. Will be discussing tomorrow on a live chat. nps.gov/vick/learn/his… #genealogy #Confederate

I'll be discussing sports, genes, and more interestingly, genealogy tomorrow at 11 a.m. in a live chat, here. Come join. washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/07…

Genealogy studies lineage. History is a broader study of events. But they converge, share a lot of the same methodology. An interesting question: does family history influence who you become? How much does your family's story shape you? washingtonpost.com/sports/2025/...

McEnroe just said of Alcaraz, "whoever coached him in the beginning..." For the love of God. It was up to Chris Fowler -- a football announcer - to tell McEnroe that Carlos Santos laid the foundation. Exhibit effing A. ESPN, please move on from this guy

Don't be sad. It's a natural cycle. There is going to be a lot of room and light for great young journos at The Washington Post like Ava Wallace, Candace Bucker, Sam Fortier.

Candace Buckner, and Jerry Brewer, who was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize this year. They are rich in talent. You watch. You won't miss me by next week. When Mike Wilbon we all felt the same. But the running room allowed me to mature into a lead columnist.

I view it as the next hill to climb. Long form features, some of them well outside of sports. Mountain climbers don't stop at one peak. Neither do writers.

Gary Kasparov is never boring but when he talks to George Friedman it's so interesting it might change everything you think or thought about Trump: theatlantic.com/podcasts/archi…
