Maine is set to become the 8th state to launch iGaming, described by experts as the most addictive form of gambling.
Is Maine ready? No.
So why’s it happening? Because of the state’s failure to reckon with its treatment of its tribes
For @BostonGlobe

After a decorated 24-year run at ESPN, Nicole Noren resigned in protest.
She couldn’t go along with the network’s all-out embrace of gambling.
For the first time publicly, in @CJR, Noren shares the deeply personal reasons behind her decision.

the guy who revived the old (and now very popular) Maine pine tree flag is cooking up a similar effort in Massachusetts bostonmagazine.com/news/2026… via @JasonSchwartz
I wrote for @BostonMagazine about the most pressing of issues: Why Maine has a great (unofficial) flag and why the Massachusetts flag stinks and will almost certainly always stink bostonmagazine.com/news/2026…

John Henry answered why he stopped talking to the Boston media
Per: @JasonSchwartz
“I saw it as unproductive.”
I emailed John Henry to ask him why he no longer speaks to the press. And, funny thing, he emailed me back. For @fangraphs

AJ Dybantsa is headed to Washington, but the "kid from Brockton" won't forget where he came from.

Maine is wildly unprepared for a likely increase in gambling addiction, with few paying attention to how underfunded and ill-equipped the state's services are. That includes Graham Platner:
A few highlights! After the iGaming bill became law, DraftKings moved aggressively to short-circuit plans by the National Association Against iGaming (a brick and mortar casino group, naturally) to put the new law to a referendum vote
Name your favorite column about @CharlieBakerMA.
I'll start. It's this one I wrote about how @CharlieBakerMA loves replying to tweets like this.

Hello, it is me, a newly self-appointed STROLLER EXPERT.
Tariffs and social media have blown up the baby gear landscape. I wrote for the @BostonGlobe about reigning "It Stroller" brand UPPAbaby's quest to stay on top in a world gone mad (for posting)

For the @BostonGlobe: Prop bets are dangerous—both for the integrity of the game (hi, Emmanuel Clase and Terry Rozier) and at-risk gamblers. If only somebody had warned us! bostonglobe.com/2025/12/15/m…
Tax money from betting on sports is now being used to fund college sports. I wrote for @nytimes about Louisiana's new law and how this trend may be about to spread across the country nytimes.com/2025/11/15/busin…
AJ Dybantsa doesn't drop his R's, will never be played by a Wahlberg and wasn't raised in Southie, Charlestown or inside a Dunkin Donuts. Can he be the new face of Boston?
I wrote about a very good bball player and a very complicated city for @ringer

As the first Dominican woman representing Little Dominican Republic, sometimes we have to play ball. Dominicans are historically passionate about two things: politics and baseball. Thank you to @JasonSchwartz for covering leaders in our community on this cultural topic!
