everyone should read this piece Clinton wrote about Everett Fitzhugh and the Kraken. Especially if you're a Kraken fan and want to feel good about the team and the choices they've made about their future as an organization.

Like 75% of the US Olympic curlers are from Minnesota. A lot of them curl out of two clubs in Saint Paul, one club is in Frogtown, a neighborhood that has been very heavily targeted by ICE. These curlers are good neighbors.

Pouring one out for WaPo sports, which directly gave us Pardon the Interruption, Around the Horn, and one of the baddest to ever do sports reporting, @clintonyates.bsky.social

The WaPo sports section was so seismic in its work that it closing down should be considered an institutional injustice.

He keeps every story I write in boxes in his home. He calls me to ask if I know when my stories make it on the front page of the sports section.

It’s an honor to be part of the @postsports.bsky.social team. Always have felt that way but especially today.

People ask me what my favorite part of working at The Post is and I often tell them my granddad. A native Washingtonian, he’s an avid sports fan. When I was hired in 2021, it was a full-circle moment for my family.

Serving local readers like him is a privilege. #SaveThePost
