My teen son loves Shaboozey. He happens to be in Paris tonight while we’re here so we brought him. The “opening act” is this DJ dude playing random songs from 50+ years ago while the crowd stares silently at him, mesmerized. Never seen anything like it.

Lots of mistakes, lots of ugly football for 3 1/2 quarters. But Shedeur was good enough at the end of regulation and OT to keep starting him. There is no path with Deshaun. What do they have to lose?

This one hurts, selfishly. Home run hire for ESPN. @xSergioGonzalez is a fantastic boss and an even better human. One of the best connectors in this crazy, screwy business. And he has one of the best Vegas Summer League/dirt on me stories that ever existed.

Glass Break: ESPN has hired Sergio Gonzalez, an editorial director at The Athletic, as VP of digital editorial, @FOS has learned.

He will report to Mike Foss and is the top digital newsroom hire since Roxanna Scott's position was eliminated in August.

If it was April, this game would've been cancelled yesterday. But it's only Game 4 of the ALCS, so sure, let's sit here and watch the blowing rain until midnight because those Friends reruns on TBS are too important to disrupt.

I have a lot of respect for Jim Thome, but it's disappointing to see him wearing all black at the game today. There isn't a statue of him in front of that shitty stadium in Chicago.
