“Music publications BrooklynVegan, Alternative Press, Revolver, and Goldmine have been gutted by parent company Veeps... Nearly all the staff at each publication appear to have been laid off yesterday. Veeps, which is now owned by Live Nation, acquired the publications in 2024 or 2025”

if you wrote this sox season as a script it’d be too improbable, particularly the bello-the-unhittable-reliever subplot

man I knew I should’ve gone to the game tonight

Following that 6-run Red Sox 1st inning with an organ medley of Gang Of Four's "I Found That Essence Rare" into Olivia Rodrigo's "honeybee." (Just because the team can seem to do no wrong these days doesn't mean the same can be said for me.)

it is, but I am on the edge of my seat all afternoon regardless

KODY CLEMENS ULTIMATE GRAND SLAM!

one major takeaway from trying to be more mp3/ipod-centric and less reliant on streaming this year is that we absolutely gotta bring back including the download code with the vinyl release

seeing numbers 10 and 14 in person was kind of emotional after enduring a lot of rough games this year. they are suddenly a believable team, against all odds, and it’s fun!

Willson Contreras on what the streak means: “We can beat anybody.” He said he told the team to be proud of the streak and not discouraged by the loss.

the get-in price for the potential record-breaker at fenway tonight currently $200+ lol

man I could be quitting my job right now if I'd put money on this red sox team tying records set by ted williams in the '40s like a month and a half ago

I am invested in the world cup for the first time ever but not remotely invested in the US being good during it so all of this has been very entertaining

The beauty of sports is you can just decide at any point “I give a shit about this now. Against all reason.” Ten minutes later you hate one of the teams more than life and it’s all downhill from there.
