    Mike and I want to thank @cher and her manager Lindsey, for taking time to meet and snap a pic with us in Portland last month. Our Christmas card made family and friends a little, ✔️ that, a lot jealous! Even edited the message to fit the theme! Happy Holidays and THANK YOU!

    Silicon Valley Bank has been operating for 40 years. 3 years ago they were basking in the trump repealed Dodd-Frank regulations. Now they’re defunct. Get MAGA, go broke! 🤷🏻‍♂️

    A new adventure in umpiring, The Warehouse Games! I haven’t had an ejection since 2016 but have a feeling that will change today 😮

    It took 30 months from when @robneyer and I agreed to do a book, to today when, for the first time, I actually held it in my hand. Wow! I’m an author! The Umpire Is Out: Calling the Game and Living My True Self @UnivNebPress #TheUmpireIsOut

    I've been there. You're there to do your job, but you can't help to look around and know that you have a pretty cool view of something special.

    Trump couldn't walk in the rain at the Normandy American Cemetery to honor the losers of D-Day, so there's that...

    Example of the on screen fake strike zone and what MLB umpires deal with. This is the exact same 3-2 pitch, one from the Mets telecast, the other STL. Ball 4 on one, strike 3 the other. These “zones” aren’t accurate yet viewers think they’re gospel. #MLB #Umpire #FakeZone

    One of the greatest that has ever sat behind a mic, we lost a true gentleman with the passing of @TheVinScully This was taken in May 2011 before our getaway game. He was so gracious, and always saluted the crew when we gathered at the plate for ground rules. Thank you Vin.

    It’s one thing to question a call or convince yourself the officials cost you the game. Implying the officials cheated or the NFL paid the crew to help KC win is destructive. Not everything is a conspiracy. SMH 🤦🏻

    And what will you do if the jury convicts? My guess? You will scream fraud, miscarriage of justice, and still deny trump did anything wrong. Why? Because (real) facts mean nothing to MAGA, only grievance and lies to fuel your dystopian narrative. Sad...and pathetic 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Wow times changed! Now (non)President Felon has dropped to HIS knees for SUGARDADDY, letting President Musk access to anything he wants, all with zero oversight or accountability. Amazing what $250 million buys these days, you get to cancel a president & take over a country 👀
