The New York Knicks are in the midst of the most dominant postseason run in NBA, and maybe sports, history. I said what I said.
WVU fans singing loud and proud after an NCAA Regional win at home. 🗣️ 🎶

Not gonna lie, AI moved her hair away from in front of her face and made this one of my favorite pictures.
We can debate the Steelers’ picks all day, but the 2026 NFL Draft was a big win for Pittsburgh! The non selfie images were captured by THE Ed Thompson.
As we near the NFL Draft in Pittsburgh, Alan Saunders joined me on “Mike Drop” to discuss what the Steelers need to accomplish, what he expects to happen and how much Aaron Rodgers’ decision even matters. 🎙️ bleav.com/shows/mike-d... 📺 www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXtm...
Is the hype justified? What needs to happen for the Pirates to contend in 2026? What's reasonable to expect from Konnor Griffin? Noah Hiles joined me on the latest "Mike Drop" to discuss the Pirates ahead of the new season. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfI-...
I’ve covered countless NCAA Tournaments throughout my career. However, covering a program hosting and playing in the event, especially one close to my heart, is up there with any other as far as cool and unique experiences. Seeing that logo on that court will always be special.

Still the only manager to lead USA to a World Baseball Classic title.
I debated longtime baseball writer John Perrotto's Hall of Fame vote with the man himself on the latest episode of my "Mike Drop" podcast. We also talked Andruw Jones and Carlos Beltran making the cut, why John voted for Ryan Braun and how to handle PED players. 🎙️ bleav.com/shows/mike-d...
I hope she never gets tired of our daddy-daughter dates. 1. 2. 3. Trampoline park!
As Baseball HOF voters release their ballots, I had one I know well on a recent edition of my “Mike Drop” show. Will Graves @willgravesap.bsky.social defended his ballot (one I do agree with) and we got into the conversation about the steroid guys and future candidates. 🎙️ bleav.com/shows/mike-d...
We love iPhone portrait mode. I also want to take this time say how proud I am of this little girl. She’s shown so much bravery having to get to know new teachers at her pre school/day care and even getting over being placed in a separate class from the friends she made last year.
No beach vacation this summer, so living vicariously through everyone else and remembering beach trips of the past.

Shoutout to the MilkShake Factory for hooking me up once again - this time with free tickets. It’s too bad Ovechkin couldn’t have waited to break the record, but we have all been blessed with Crosby vs. Ovechkin being so important to the sport for so long.
When you have to delay your trip home due to crazy rain, you crush something called the Triple Dipper!
