Not legal but tracks if you’re ignorant, artless, selfish, amoral, tone deaf
Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans. Degrees for social work, art, religious studies, teaching aides, and music will be hit the hardest. trib.al/NmmAzhf

Congrats, Guards fans But @mlb needs to reseed by league standings Cle get a bye then play the CWS-AL west winner in ALDS Mw Tampa gets NYY vs Bos winner? Yanks: 7+ gm > Cle Bos: 6+ gm > CWS/Hou/Tex Great you diluted playoffs but this is nuts on top of it
It wasn't the smoothest ride, but the Guardians saved their best baseball for the end. For a third consecutive season, the Guardians are AL Central champions. They earned a first-round bye and will host Game 1 of the ALDS next Saturday. nytimes.com/athletic/7633771…

The local tv ads are incessant and misleading at best, but yeah Sergey brin is worried that prop 40 won’t raise enough revenue
The California nonprofit opposing the billionaires tax, Building a Better California, has raised a staggering $227 million, per new filing last night.

We all know the early rounds were littered with landmines. Ran some numbers to compare ADP, preseason projections, and actual value. + more PE $ as owners prep for lockout Comparing 15-Team Actual Value To Preseason Projections and Main Event ADP michaelcecchini.substack.com…

FLOCK to disappear from LA. Now police are pushing a new $235 million Axon package. Beware of cities dumping FLOCK. Many are simply updating to the fancier fully integrated Axon system instead of ending mass surveillance. officer.com/command-hq/techn…

If you enjoyed these pods last off-season, not only will they be brought back with @wagner13454 but we will be auditing our process and takes from 2026 for some show of accountability and a way for us to improve as players. For members of the Patreon, I will be providing a lot of extra's for each episode - truly unique to the space. the offseason work doesn't start when the season ends - it starts now and if want non stop analysis all off season, come be a Meatball patreon.com/cw/u32383693
On the new @PullHitterPod, @wagner13454 and I continue our positional previews with Third Base. Using @TheReal_NFC recent Draft Champions ADP, we go down DEEP into the position for some actionable fantasy moves in 2026 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

The Dallas Morning News relying on advocates for and against a $700m Stars arena funding ballot measure to make the case for why this is a good deal or not is an abdication of what journalism is supposed to do: find out facts and inform readers about them. fieldofschemes.com/2026/09/2…

This is bad for lockout optimists. PE firms have a merciless, unimpeachable record of cutting costs
MLB owners voted earlier this summer to raise the limit one PE firm can own in one club from 15% to 20% -- was not announced. Also revealed in our story: MLB is not capping how many diff teams one PE firm can invest in; NBA, NHL, NFL do. @BenHorney @FOS frontofficesports.com/articl…

Maikel’s bat speed down 3 mph, he hasn’t logged a “fast swing” yet (18% season) On 70 BBE, the 3 combined = 2 barrels (both Diaz, a robust 5.4%) ROH 60% GB
Added Maikel and O’Hearn to teams needing BA help. One of those teams has Y Diaz L14 days:

Different kind of excruciating dump
I can't stress enough how messy the Cubs and Red Sox situation is about to get if anything close to a storm like this comes to fruition next weekend (a high likelihood given the blocking pattern in eastern Canada). The Red Sox are virtually locked into the second AL Wild Card spot, but the Cubs are among three teams within a game of each other for the three NL Wild Card spots and will likely need all three games played to determine seeding. If a multiday nor'easter visits Fenway next weekend however, the Red Sox may have no interest in playing the games at all. MLB is about to have quite an ordeal on their hands as the regular season comes to a close.

Congrats to the 50% started who didn’t pay attention when he was sent down Monday
Bulk guy Emmet Sheehan today: 5 1/3 scoreless innings, one walk, one hit, 9 Ks. After a multi-week reset in Triple A, Sheehan has shined in three outings back with the Dodgers, and is pitching himself back into postseason roster consideration. 1-1 in the seventh. #Dodgers

Cash- and Epstein-rich partner!
SCOOP: The @Yankees are nearing a deal that would eventually hand a whopping 16% stake in the venerable franchise to private equity giant Apollo Capital Management. The Steinbrenner family would relinquish a “de minimis” slice of its controlling equity, finalizing a transaction that will give the famed franchise a new, cash-rich partner, the @nypost has learned. nypost.com/2026/09/20/sports…
