Mason Miller has already thrown 286 pitches this season at 100 mph or faster. That’s more pitches at 100-plus, in three months, than Gerrit Cole, Tyler Glasnow, Shohei Ohtani and Spencer Strider have combined in their whole careers (280). And that’s out of nearly 50,000 total pitches for those four.

Christina Hall on why she did twinning video with ex Tarek El Moussa's wife Heather Rae Christina Hall is aware of the running joke that her ex-husband Tarek El Moussa has a type — and has used it in her favor. While promoting the fifth season of her HGTV show "Christina on the Coast," which premiered July 11 and airs new episodes every Thursday, Hall tells TODAY.com about how she, her ex and his wife, Heather Rae El Moussa, caused a recent stir on social media after they collaborated on an Instagram video. In the May 14 clip, Hall and Heather Rae El Moussa wear almost identical outfits, then mix up their own names before the camera pans out to Tarek El Moussa, who says, "Well, I guess it is confusing." Fans flooded the comments with a melting pot of reactions, ranging from calling the stunt "amazing" to "desperate." But two overarching themes in the comments were that the blondes “could be sisters” and that Tarek El Moussa “has a type.” Little did fans know the attention-grabbing video was intentional ahead of announcing Hall, Tarek El Moussa and both their spouses had an upcoming HGTV show called "The Flip Off." "We talked about doing something right before (the announcement) aired, just to kind of shock people," Hall explains exclusively to TODAY.com of the joint Instagram production. "Collaboratively, we're like, 'OK, the thing is, everyone's always saying (Heather and I) look-alike, and (Tarek) has a type.' So we kind of just came up with that together." Heather Rae El Moussa also spoke with TODAY.com in May about the twinning video and how it makes fun of the real-life comparisons the two women get. “People have compared her and me ever since I came into Tarek’s life," Heather Rae El Moussa explained. "And I get it — we have similar hair and a similar look. So we were like, ‘Let’s be twins and wear the exact same thing.'" The former "Selling Sunset" star acknowledges Tarek El Moussa is attracted to blondes, but she tells TODAY.com that she doesn't think them getting together "had anything to do with looking like his ex-wife." Hall tells TODAY.com in her July interview that the look-alike video "worked" as far as garnering attention and that "people were shocked." Hall and Tarek El Moussa married in 2009 and found success as the dynamic duo on HGTV's "Flip or Flop" before divorcing in 2018. The former couple shares two kids, daughter Taylor and son Brayden. Hall also shares son Hudson with ex-husband Ant Anstead and is now married to realtor Josh Hall, while Tarek El Moussa shares son Tristan with his now-wife Heather Rae El Moussa. Over the years, rumors have circulated that Hall, Tarek and Heather Rae El Moussa had a challenging dynamic in light of a very public divorce and having a blended family. Heather Rae El Moussa also admitted on Jill Martin's “The New Rules” podcast in November 2022 that there have been "ups and down" when navigating her relationship with Hall. But both women have said that the well-being of their kids has always come first. "There's just so many stories circulating, or people think, you know, the drama is worse than it is," Hall tells TODAY.com. "The reality is, we're all kind of parenting the kids, and that's our priority." Hall has also been keeping busy with family in her professional life, which will be seen in the new season of HGTV's "Christina on the Coast." She tells TODAY.com about how in one episode, she helps her parents renovate their dated kitchen. "It's something that they've asked me to do for a while, but I never agreed because they've always talked about moving, so I thought it was pointless dumping money into it," Hall explains. "I finally decided to do it because their kitchen cabinets were from like 1970 and they were falling over, so it was time." While Hall said she faced a few "challenges" doing the renovation with her parents, like having different preferences in design, they ultimately "really trusted" her direction. "My mom literally still texts me in the morning, 'Oh I love my new kitchen,'" Hall says.

Kate Middleton to Attend Men's Singles Final at Wimbledon as She Continues Her Recovery

But let's be honest... not even Lucy herself would say she had the comedic chops to rival Lucky, the Tanner family cat.

Stick your head in gravy, wash it out with bubblegum, and send it to the Navy. Given your youth, I assume you won't get the reference.

WHAT POWERFUL POSTS!!!

Another classic sitcom, starring Brian Benben, from the prehistoric era at HBO.

You can say that again!

Fair enough. Daughter Lynn & neighbors Trevor & Raquel (real-life former roommate of Marilyn Monroe) Ochmonek were on par w/ the Mertzes. Willie, Kate, & ALF were the only ones on a level with Lucy & Desi. But that goes without saying, of course.

Blue Jays Place Kevin Kiermaier On Waivers The Blue Jays have placed outfielder Kevin Kiermaier on waivers, reports Joel Sherman of The New York Post. The goal is seemingly to have another team claim him and take on the remainder of his salary. Kiermaier is still on the 40-man roster and can continue playing for the Jays while on waivers. In fact, he was playing in today’s game against the Giants as this report came out. If he clears waivers, the Jays can outright him or release him but keeping him on the roster would also be an option.

Well, obviously not Lucy and Desi, but probably on a par with Fred and Ethel.

In her sleep. Age 75. Complications from diabetes.

He was a core member of one of the most iconic casts of all time. I think that qualifies.

thinking of your ass...

Benji Gregory, a child star who played Brian Tanner in the 1980s sitcom “Alf,” has died. He was 46. According to online records from the Maricopa County Medical Examiner’s office in Arizona reviewed by USA TODAY Wednesday, Gregory – whose full name was Benjamin Gregory Hertzberg – died June 13. A cause of death is pending. His sister, Rebecca, told TMZ – which first broke the news – that she believes Gregory was found deceased in his car in a bank parking lot near Phoenix. Gregory portrayed Brian on all four seasons of the classic sitcom. Before this breakthrough role, he appeared on episodes of shows such as “The A-Team,” “Punky Brewster” and “The Twilight Zone.”

Can I ask what the motivation is? No offense to anyone, but this site doesn't seem important enough for anybody to make any such effort.

DEAR ABBY: My fiancee has a number of male friends she has known for years. One of them stops off at her work, brings food and gifts, and may go out with her after hours. Another called her one evening and invited her out for drinks to celebrate his promotion. At a recent party, another one had his hands on her back or shoulders whenever he spoke to her (she was wearing a silk blouse). Prior to that, she had left with him to go to the ATM holding his hand. At another party, I practically had to wrestle another “friend” away from her so I could sit next to her at dinner and later stand next to her for the group picture. When I tell her I’m upset about this, especially that she is allowing it to go on, she tells me they have been friends for years and there is nothing sexual going on. (In fact, she says I’m the ONLY man she knows who thinks that way.) She says, “We’re all just touchy-feely.” Observing these goings-on, I don’t see any of her other male or female friends touching anyone else like this. I would never touch another woman who was in a committed relationship. She insists it’s just me, and that if I say anything, she will be upset. So, here I sit, stewing, while her supposedly non-sexual friends paw at her and vie for her attention. Advice? — SEETHING IN NEW YORK DEAR SEETHING CUCKOLD: Yes. Your fiancee has made it plain that she doesn’t plan to change. This is why you should stop seething and end the engagement. Unless you enjoy pain and anxiety, this IS A BITCH. KILL HER; SHE isn’t the girl for you. DEAR ABBY: I have one grandchild and another on the way. I have been struggling lately with all the rules and boundaries my children are placing on me. I realize that with the internet and the new parent courses, they are receiving more information than I ever did. The latest issue is with my daughter who is due in a few months. We are very close, but suddenly she says I will need to shower and wear clean clothing before seeing her child. She’s afraid of third-hand smoke. I am, unfortunately, a smoker. I would never smoke around her baby. I don’t even smoke in the house, but she has told me it’s her rule. I have read everything about third-hand smoke and haven’t found any statistics about the amount of exposure it would take to harm a baby. I’m going to try to quit, but I think this is crazy. She hasn’t said anything about cleaning products, food or anything else. Am I wrong in thinking this is over the top? — SAD SMOKER IN MASSACHUSETTS DEAR SMOKER: As a longtime smoker, you are probably no longer aware of how unpleasant the smell of tobacco can be for nonsmokers. It clings to the smoker’s hair, skin, clothing and surroundings. You are entitled to think whatever you wish, but as you stated, this is your daughter’s rule, and if you are going to interact with that grandchild, you will have to respect it. I truly hope you will be able to overcome your tobacco addiction and cuddle the baby. If you do, you will be doing all of you (including yourself) a favor. BUY A FEW PAIRS OF CHEAP SWEATS AND LEARN HOW TO SHOWER IN 5 MINUTES, THEN TELL YOUR DAUGHTER YOU ARE SO SORRY FOR DRINKING WHILE PREGNANT WITH HER, WHICH IS WHY SHE OBVIOUSLY HAS SOME KIND OF NEUROLOGICAL DEFICIT.

He's actually correct... because he's stupid. That quote means he thinks his youthful appearance is the cause of his not drinking and I'd have to agree. Nobody wants to be seen serving or selling alcohol to, or drinking it with, somebody who looks 15.
