I love tributes to Bob Gibson. This might be the best.

Fantastic NPR interviewee The Nation Dave Zirin Dave Zirin regarding #ojsimpson passing/legacy (& we must never forget the brutal Brown/Goldman murders). Looking forward to commentary from NPR host/author/friend NPRMichel & others. npr.org/2024/04/11/119…

Great to talk to William Brangham - a true gent.

OJ Simpson was a Rorschach test for how a person understood this country, writes Dave Zirin. It wasn’t OJ the person that people perceived. They saw OJ as a symbol of the country’s deeper rot. People just couldn't agree on what exactly was so rotten.

As promised on the air, here is Michael Lee's brilliant piece The Washington Post about the legacy of Henry Aaron! washingtonpost.com/sports/2024/04…

OJ Simpson died. Folks should watch Ezra Edelman's doc OJ: Made in America. Should be a rule that folks have to watch it before opining.

Always weird (and obnoxious) for media figures to dismiss media criticism by claiming it’s not a problem because journalism is worthless, words are meaningless, and which information people do and don’t see or hear, how they get the info, and how it’s framed don’t matter at all.

Sad to report that the layoffs are already underway.

Was just informed by a Coliseum employee that around 40 Legends contracted employees who work concessions are being walked out as I type this.

They were told more to come tomorrow including A’s employees.

The eruption in fan interest in college women’s hoops is the backdrop for Dawn Staley's support of trans athletes, writes Dave Zirin. It also amplifies Staley's courageous comments.

The Athletics will relocate to Sacramento at season’s end, leaving behind Coliseum workers who, in some cases, have held their jobs for decades. I spoke to several about how they learned of the news, what those jobs meant to their lives, and what's next cbssports.com/mlb/news/oakla…
