Twelve Saturdays

The ‘most popular’ womens college basketball teams, per Nielsen. Nielsen has created a new metric to determine the most popular teams in women’s college basketball, measuring viewership and social media data.  The new ranking covers the entire 2025/2026 regular season.

@meghanncuniff Ha - they'll get nothing and like it. Victory for free speech.

The attorney suing Afroman told jurors today that "a power higher than us that brought you here today to do this job." "You are the chosen people to do it. Nobody else is going to do it. There's not going to be another trial. There's not going to be a second chance," said Robert A. Klinger, who has a civil litigation practice in Cincinnati, Ohio. "This is the day to decide whether Mr. Foreman gets away with what he's done, and whether these plaintiffs deserve something to make up for what they've been through, and whether the community is told that what he did is unacceptable. It's not okay," Klinger said. Klinger represents several current and former law enforcement officials in rural Adams County who say Afroman, legal name Joseph Edgar Foreman, defamed them and portrayed them in a false light after they searched his home in August 2022 seized cash and marijuana. Afroman has called the deputies thieves after they reported taking $4,400 from his home but returned only $4,000. An investigator concluded a deputy overcounted the original amount by $390 and could not account for the other missing $10. Afroman's lawyer David Osborne addressed the theft comments by telling jurors truth is a defense against defamation. He's cast Afroman's other comments, which include calling a deputy a pedophile, saying he slept with a sergeant's wife and the music video "Lemon Pound Cake", as comedic exaggerations and social commentary.

@IAmMiamiFL @atrupar Horse. Shit.

@atrupar She's right, of course. And Ossoff is a moron who think his linguistic tricks will work on anyone other than other lefty morons. Other agencies can provide assessments, but only the President can determine what is, or is not, a threat.

OSSOFF: Your opening statement stated that as a result of last summer's airstrikes, Iran's nuclear enrichment program was 'obliterated.' Correct? GABBARD: That's right OSSOFF: The WH stated on March 1 that this war was launched to 'eliminate the imminent nuclear threat posed by the Iranian regime.' Does the IC assess that there was an imminent nuclear threat? GABBARD: The only person who can determine what is or is not an imminent threat is the president OSSOFF: False

@Thefactsdude That's a fucking American Hero right there. Justice for Afroman!

Afroman Day 2: Deputy claims Afroman singing about sleeping with his wife has caused him “tremendous pain” as grounds for defamation. Day 2 of the Afroman defamation case has begun, and Randolph L. Walters, Jr. testified that Afroman singing about sleeping with his wife caused him “tremendous pain.” Walters Jr. also stated that being labeled a “thief” has hurt his reputation. So far, all the deputies have claimed they do not believe everything they hear or see on the internet and that they have all been called names unrelated to Afroman’s songs. So many good clips 🤣

@thesisklord @ChrisMurphyCT Yeah, foreign policy by gambling (from a man who BANKRUPTED A CASINO) is a great fucking idea 🙄

@ChrisMurphyCT Interesting calculation here. But if you are wrong you lose the house in Nov. This will be over by Easter one way or the other. Gotta love a guy willing to roll the dice

It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire. 1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.

@TrollingCanuck @covid_parent You fucking rubes will believe anything 😂 “fake / satire. That X post is from PETRIFIED COVID PARENT and it’s written as a mock “public health” message (“Front Hole,” “Front Holical cancer”) that isn’t a real medical term or real screening campaign. “

@covid_parent I cant believe this is real life 🤦‍♀️🤣🤡

Ladies of Twitter, are you up to date on having your Front Hole screened, to help prevent Front Holical cancer?

“The power of the hammer reigns supreme” was a sentence just said by the curling announcer. It is the most metal of Olympic sports. 🤘

It’s just a shame they didn’t break the streak against a legitimate Top 10 team and not one that has never won an NCAA game.

The most watched women’s college basketball teams through 1/18, per a release from Nielsen. The Top 10 ranking through January 18 showcases the teams with the highest viewership on ABC, CW, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, FOX, FS1, FS2, ION, NBC, TruTV, TNT, and USA Network.

@smurphy9030 @HotSpotHotSpot "grieving"

@HotSpotHotSpot This is not the own the Candace thinks it is, I give Erika props for this and my opinion of her has increased. Making the best of a bad situation when you’re grieving with two kids? 👏 still don’t agree with one word her or her husband say…but kudos.

Candace Owens released leaked audio from Turning Point USA in which Erika Frantzve Kirk is heard giggling and cheerfully discussing attendance figures, merchandise sales, and performance metrics from Charlie Kirk’s memorial event just 11 days after his death

@mike_daddino I wonder if she could jump over a deck of cards. 🤔

I am exposing Audi Crooks on defense - because ESPN won’t

@RetroCoast @FoxNews They do. People like you just don't listen.

@FoxNews Why did they never talk like this when it is illegal aliens committing crimes against Americans?

PHILLY DA Larry Krasner warns ICE agents in wake of the Minneapolis shooting: "If any law enforcement agent, any ICE agent is gonna come to Philly to commit crimes, then you can get the F out of here." "I will charge you with those crimes. You will be arrested. You will stand trial. You will be convicted." "Donald Trump cannot pardon you for a state court conviction. Do you hear me, ICE agents?" "There are honest, decent moral law enforcement officers out there by the bushel, including in ICE. This is not for you. This is for any one of your colleagues who thinks they are above the law."

@AGrantFL @TheHoopHerald Not a hater - actually love her game and think she's a great kid. But there is a massive, massive gulf between "best defender" and "give even passing interest at showing even an intention of defending." She's a matador on D, disinterested and not even trying. It's bad.

@TheHoopHerald Love how haters expect her to be the best scorer, best rebounder, and best defender. Didn’t watch the game, clips obviously catch some bad help defense.

These Audi Crooks defensive highlights are tough to watch For Iowa State to make a real run, they are going to need to figure this out

@mathewniehaus Even matadors are cringing at that one, lol.

Hustle like this is why it’s no surprise Audi Crooks is the favorite for the Wooden Award. What a talent.

@BruinReport Iowa had the best player on the court in Stirtz and it wasn’t even close. Iowa also has the #1 scoring defense in the country. Amazing someone of a “basketball school” is this dumb about basketball. Embarrassing for you.

That kind of ending leaves you not knowing what to think. Iowa just isn't very good; UCLA has more talent, but just dug itself too deep of a hole because it was asleep in the first half. Donovan Dent almost singlehandedly pulled it out. Despite the comeback, the takeaway is that UCLA should have won this game.

Who wore it better? 🤔
