Game 7, '91 World Series. Game tied 0-0 in the top of the 8th. Atlanta loads the bases, and anything put in play will score a run. The Twins turn a 3-2-3 double play and get out of the inning. They will win the game in the bottom of the 10th, and Jack Morris will pitch himself into the Hall. © Major League Baseball

2014 NCAA semi-finals. Game tied 1-1. Gophers are short handed and North Dakota is pouring it on with 9 seconds to go. I was on the road and ended up watching the game in the hotel bar with a ND grad. We said the same thing: "Wow." © ESPN

2014 Auburn-Alabama (the "Iron Bowl") are tied with seconds left. Alabama attempts a 55 yard field goal, which falls short. Auburn has placed a man in the end zone, who runs it back 109 yards. Not an Auburn fan, just enjoy watching Alabama lose.

Yes, I Wrote a Letter to the Pope

I'm not given to religiosity. Don't like it, as a rule. So I hesitated to post this letter publicly, lest I overstep my own boundary. And yet, I have to ask my MAGA Catholic friends, what were you thinking?
