Really enjoying the contributions of @hyphen18 this season on @Mariners broadcasts. Not only because of his wonderful insights that draw on his background as a pitcher, but because he attended @ArizonaCoyotes games during Spring Training while playing. Win-Win.

Saddened to hear about the passing of a Northwest treasure. Little known fact: he was the first full-time employee at REI (and eventually their CEO).

Columbus got a good one! I was fortunate to cross paths with Gilly during our time in Arizona, and I look forward to his successes with the Blue Jackets.

One of my favorite authors interviewing the creators of one of my favorite podcasts. So many great takeaways, on so many levels.
Replying to @AcquiredFM
For those guessed Google... bingo! Our holiday special this year was filmed in the garage where Google had their first office. Michael Lewis (!) joined us to talk about the 10-year Acquired journey, what we've learned, and why the show "works". acquired.fm/episodes/10-year…

Great news! Volleyball is such a great sport, and it can be enjoyed throughout a lifespan. I wish it would've been a HS sport "back in my day." 😀 opb.org/article/2025/11/16/b…

As a youth sports official for over 25 years, I’ve witnessed and experienced this first hand on a regular basis to this day. Going a step further, I’ve seen it influence parent/spectator behavior as well. 🤦
In a study on baseball players, the emotional state of the coach predicted the emotional state and performance of the players If a coach was angry, players grew more frustrated, made more errors, & were more likely to tank What message are you sending? thegrowtheq.com/getting-read…

I think the main thing here is that one of the worlds most prestigious team's in one of the worlds most popular sports (i.e, access to anyone/anything) has deliberately chosen to bring in a 78yr old track and field coach because he has a level of expertise they don't have elsewhere. Shows humility and intelligence IMO. Could have gone with any number of big name coaches. But they did research. Awesome to see they value and respect his rare knowledge, which Harry has been trying to share with Athletics with limited interest.
Manchester United have invited a world-renowned track and field coach into the club as a consultant to offer his insight on athletics, including the mechanics of running. Harry Marra, 78, has been present at Carrington to lend his expertise to staff, partly on the best way to cover ground with speed and endurance, due to the emphasis for high intensity in Ruben Amorim’s system. The arrangement, on a consultancy basis, has been instigated by United executives in line with head coach Amorim. Marra has been chosen due to his record in elite sport. He is working with Sam Erith, #MUFC's interim performance director. The arrangement is set to last a few weeks. @lauriewhitwell 🔗 nytimes.com/athletic/6095507…

"Heater" is an absolute gem, and that description has little to do with hockey. One of the many beautiful people who I crossed paths with at the Coyotes. Kudos to @spetershockey for turning the mic around on him for a great listen.

A late round pick by the Coyotes who worked his way into being a regular and turned it into nearly 2 decades of pro hockey. With a mindset and ethic like that, I can’t wait to follow his future successes. Congrats, Winny!
After a lot of thought and careful consideration I have decided to retire from the game of hockey.

Truth.
✅23-year NHL coach who worked w/guys like Schoenfeld, Tortorella, Francis, Bowness, Gretzky, Tippett & Tocchet ✅28 yrs experience crafting concise video breakdowns ✅Contacts on NHL staffs to verify specific systems/assignments There is no NHL media analyst like @spetershockey:

Although my touchpoint with Bones was only one season in Phoenix, I am so thankful that we crossed paths. I reflect on things I learned from him often, and rarely do they involve hockey. One of the best.

“You gave me some of the best years of my life.” @BizNasty2point0 gives an emotional speech about how grateful he is for the Coyotes and how much they meant to him 🏜️teapawt.org/BR_OpenIce/status/1780…
