Getting my son featured in the @nytimes is the peak of my parenting/journalism/comms career: nytimes.com/2022/11/22/dinin… and yes, I said it on-the-record: turkey sucks.

Eagles wanted 13 personnel for that 4th-and-1 penalty, A.J. Brown never came off the field. Pretty costly. Four penalties on the offense so far.

In late 2017, with #MeToo in full swing, I set out to see if my high school harbored any teachers who took advantage of the often blurred boundaries with students on campus. I never expected to find my journalism teacher. businessinsider.com/rosemead…

He was my high school journalism teacher. Then I investigated his relationships with teenage girls.

Eric Burgess, Rosemead High School's "Golden Boy," repeatedly groomed students for sex. No one stopped him for more than 20 years.

Lost among the breathless speculation about what Microsoft's deal for Activision meant for the metaverse was a simpler truth: Microsoft thinks Activision's top-tier titles will help it pursue its gaming strategy. My analysis of yesterday's deal: nytimes.com/2022/01/19/busin…

It’s Not Complicated. Microsoft Wants Activision for Its Games. (Published 2022)

Activision has a lot of popular games that fit into Microsoft’s plans to build a vast library of titles that can be played on all sorts of devices. The metaverse can wait.

I wrote about the Texas synagogue attack and why so many people still don't understand antisemitism—and the consequences this ignorance has for our entire society: theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv…

Why So Many People Still Don’t Understand Anti-Semitism

Unlike many other bigotries, anti-Semitism is not merely a social prejudice; it is a conspiracy theory about how the world operates.

Sometimes I think “Philly isn’t that different from other sports markets” and then I find out, for example, that Hurricane Schwartz was going after Ben Simmons before doing the weather lol

Sitting on tarmac waiting for flight to Cleveland to depart. Pretty sure I’m seated directly behind Kyle Pitts. A few people in Florida 84 jerseys seated around us. Do I ask if he’s Kyle Pitts? If he isn’t, then it’s like “You think ALL tall black guys look like Kyle Pitts???”
What about his true peers, receivers on PEDs?

Julian Edelman never even had a season in which he led white guys in receiving yards.

How did the Eagles go from Super Bowl champs to where they are now? Failures in collaboration. A rift with the analytics department. A lack of transparency in how decisions are made. And plenty of office politics. Deep dive from me, @Bo_Wulf and @ZBerm: theathletic.com/2506187/2021…

Paranoia, mismanagement and office politics: Inside the Eagles’ downfall under Jeffrey Lurie, Howie...

Three years after the Eagles' first Super Bowl win, the Lombardi Trophy is more a vestige of a previous era than a shared memory.

In 2019 I called off my wedding and ended an 8-year relationship. But the internet won't let me forget it. Apps still show wedding content; photo albums surface memories. And Pinterest even has a brutally insensitive name for it: "The miscarriage problem." wired.com/story/weddings-soc…

I Called Off My Wedding. The Internet Will Never Forget

In 2019, I made a painful decision. But to the algorithms that drive Facebook, Pinterest, and a million other apps, I'm forever getting married.

Elon isn’t exactly a recluse - he’s on podcasts, TV, he tweets all the time on this very website. Based on the reaction to and coverage of his Clubhouse appearance you’d think there was a shortage of Elon content. 🤷‍♂️
