David Teel is one of a kind, as good a human as he is a writer. And he’s an incredible writer.

This is horrifying.
NPR can confirm the death of longtime soccer sportswriter Grant Wahl (@GrantWahl). He died today in Doha, Qatar while covering the Argentina-Netherlands World Cup quarterfinal. Story to come.

Having watched nearly every pitch of a five-game series between Braves-Mets, I can't help but think, What are we doing with balls and strikes??? They have the technology to get every pitch call correct with robots, and they just say, "Nah."
A reminder that Calvin Ridley got a year suspension for betting parlays.

Holy cow Brian Jordan is having a rough night in the midst of a rough season. He just said the Angels are more likely to trade Trout (signed through 2030) than Ohtani (signed through 2023).

If everyone took climate change as seriously as Pete Alonso takes the Home Run Derby, the world would be a better place.

Dustin Johnson has resigned from the PGA Tour to play LIV Golf Invitational Series. "I don't want to play for the rest of my life, this gives me an opportunity to do what I want to do," he said.

An awful day, one I'm sure all of those families affected replay with every mass shooting. The hardest day and day(s) of my journalism career, but the proudest I've ever been in a newsroom coming together, doing important work, and caring about each other and our community.
What a horrific day. For me personally, I'll always be proud of how our newsroom came together to tell the stories of these mostly city employees who were at work when another city employee entered the building with multiple firearms.

I can't think of many people who wrote about any topic as well as Roger Angell wrote about baseball.
Roger Angell, one of the nation’s premier baseball writers, is dead at 101. In elegantly winding articles for The New Yorker loaded with inventive imagery, he wrote more like a fan than a sports journalist. nyti.ms/39FUtvW

Losing Freddie Freeman and Matt Ryan in consecutive weeks is quite the shockwave for Atlanta sports.
From NFL Now: The #Colts have emerged as the likely landing spot for #Falcons QB Matt Ryan, and the two sides are in talks. If Ryan is traded, it’ll almost certainly be Indy. But nothing is done as of now.
