First-round bids for teams in the new @NBA Europe were due Tuesday, and multiple bidders offered $1 billion to be part of the league. Several others offered at least $500 million, according to someone familiar with the process who was not authorized to discuss publicly.

@JoshShea40 Just once I’d like the media here to criticize Progressives for the outcomes of Progressive policies without reverting to mentions of the other party, that has had no power for decades.

Perhaps as much as half a billion dollars down the drain in one King County program alone due to fraud, and Danny Westneat finally mentions it.
"Of 36 contracts later reviewed by an auditor, 19 showed possible improper payments or fraud. This audit covered only about 2% of the money spent on grants in a year, so it could be just the tip of the fraudberg.
Bottom line: The program was too much of a blank check."
Of course, Westneat can't help himself: "Trump" is mentioned twice in this piece.

Should a sports bar, with multiple TV’s showing the tournament, play music or pick a single game to listen to? #NCAATourney

Not good enough, but at least this makes clear that the problem could be solved with the push of a button (or by getting rid of them entirely). seattletimes.com/seattle-news/t…

The biggest problem with starting the ball rolling on a taxpayer subsidy for a man who made his billions in subprime lending: Is "hoping" the Blazers will stay in Portland for two more decades enough of a return on $600m in public spending? fieldofschemes.com/2026/03/09/237…

Live Nation is asking a federal judge to hit pause on the DOJ’s antitrust trial just days before jury selection. The move follows the company’s now-deleted blog post urging the government to settle. ticketnews.com/2026/02/live-n…
