Singing songs and kicking soccer balls must pay pretty good, eh, Rod?

So this is what it's like to live like a rock star, I guess. Rod Stewart is saying goodbye to his sprawling Los Angeles mansion. Listed for an eye-popping $70 million, the estate is located in the prestigious gated enclave of North Beverly Park, known as one of the most expensive communities in the city.
The estate was custom-built for Stewart in the late 1990s by mega-mansion architect Richard Landry. The property includes a 28,500-square-foot main house, 4,500-square-foot guest house, and three acres of manicured, palace-like grounds. In total, the English country-style home has a total of 13 bedrooms and 19 bathrooms between the two homes.
 

Stewart is moving back to England. He says he's 'had enough' of California.' Guess we can't hold that against him, huh?

The company is donating a portion of all beer sales at a couple of DC bars to Folds of Honor - a nonprofit organization that helps provide for the families of fallen and disabled service members.

The Blue Jays designated Anthony Bass for assignment on Friday, 11 days after the reliever shared an anti-LGBTQ2S+ Instagram video and just hours before he was expected to catch the ceremonial first pitch on the opening night of Pride Weekend.
Prior to Thursday’s game against the Astros, general manager Ross Atkins spoke with the media in a group setting for the first time since Bass shared the video on May 29. Atkins expressed his belief that Bass’ original apology to him and manager John Schneider had been sincere. Exactly 24 hours later, Atkins described the decision to DFA (Baseball speak for getting fired) Bass as primarily a baseball move.
“There’s a myriad of variables, and performance is usually the driving one,” Atkins said. “Performance was a large aspect of this decision. Distraction was a small part of it and something that we had to factor in.” 
Bass also referred to this as a “distraction” at multiple points, saying that he learned not to share his personal beliefs on social media moving forward, but stood by his personal beliefs, saying only that he can see in hindsight that he “could see how people would view it” as hateful.

  1. Can't blame Rod for moving. The politicians of CA keep adding taxes to the rich so they are voting with their feet.

The sad reality of what our elections and politics in general have become? I think this kinda nails it..

Sean Hannity had a guest caller on yesterday afternoon who was a beacon of truth  and he had an insight that I haven't heard. The caller...
