@RaginReview College baseball is a warm-weather sport where plenty of good players from the north attend schools in the south because they can play plenty more games. Nice try, but very misleading.

The Sun Belt had more teams get in than the Big 10. We are a P4 conference in baseball.

Pure idiocy.

Greenland has been on the map since roughly the year 982, when a Norwegian called Erik the Red sailed there and named it. The Vikings. Not Donald Trump. Vikings with axes and no central heating. It is the largest island on Earth. It appears on every atlas ever printed, every globe ever made, every satellite image ever taken. NASA photographs it from space on a daily basis. It has its own government, its own flag, its own capital city and its own deeply held opinion about not being owned by anyone in a red baseball cap. The United States Air Force has had a base at Thule since 1951. Which means American military personnel have been eating terrible food and freezing their bits off on Greenland for 74 years, apparently without telling Governor Landry. And yet here stands Jeff Landry, Governor of Louisiana, a man elected by actual human beings to run an actual American state, explaining to a Danish television crew that Greenland did not exist until 2025. This is the intellectual foundation of the most aggressive territorial land grab attempted by a Western democracy since the Second World War. Not strategic doctrine. Not legal argument. Not geopolitical necessity. A governor who apparently believes the world’s largest island was invented by a property developer from Queens. They want to take Greenland. They cannot find Greenland.

I simply could not imagine being in congress and staying silent as Trump builds a slush fund of $1.776 (cute right… 1776) billion dollar slush fund for insurrrectionists. What are these people even there for? History will be brutal to them. And their kids will be embarrassed

This is what it’s all about. Pinch hitter Katie Hoffman with a two-run single for @SDCoyotesSB to tie the game 4-4 in the 7th. The emotion from her and the coach saying “I’m so proud of you.”

A photographer took a picture just as this couple threw ashes into a river. He asked who it was. As they answered their dog. The photographer asked for permission to edit their photo, and this was the result. 📷Cecilie Thoresen

What he said.

LeBron on Austin Reaves: “Seeing AR grow over five years has been nothing short of amazing. He’s a hard worker, he loves the game, he wants to get better and he’s not afraid of constructive criticism. I saw the talent, but also saw that he was willing to put the work in and wasn’t afraid of the moment. To see where he is today is awesome.”

Read this before you criticize Austin Reaves This man gave it all he had 🫡💯

Yes!

We are announcing today that The American Revolution will stream for free in its entirety on all PBS platforms from May 25th through July 12. Hope you have a chance to watch, ideally with friends and family, as you think about our 250th anniversary this July 4th. pbs.org/kenburns/the-a…

A game where a pitcher doesn't allow a hit is not a no-no. It's a no-hitter. A game where someone ends it with a hit is not a walk-off. It's a game-winning hit. Just because ESPN says it doesn't mean you have to repeat it. Also, home runs are home runs.... not dingers

Today I got to experience a career North Star. I was honored with the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service along with my incredible Washington Post colleagues for our coverage of DOGE. Too many to name here but love you and hats off to us @jstein_star @jacobbogage @faizsays @FedGirlWaPo @MerylKornfield @Cat_Zakrzewski @hannah_natanson washingtonpost.com/business/2026/…

Happy 5/4 day to those who celebrate!

INCREDIBLE! Washington Post journalist Hannah Natanson who had Trump’s FBI raid her home and take her phones and laptops, just won the Pulitzer Prize with the Washington Post. Congrats!!

Looking forward to watching Lakers vs OKC playoff series, especially these 4 from Arkansas: OKC Jaylin Williams/Fort Smith Northside Isaiah Joe/Fort Smith Northside LA LAKERS Austin Reaves/Cedar Ridge Nick Smith, Jr./North Little Rock #arpreps

David Allan Coe has passed away at the age of 86. According to multiple reports, he died around 5pm ET today (Wed, April 29) in the hospital. No official cause of death has been released at this time.

It’s been awhile since I’ve seen something so overwhelmingly unite Americans like our absolute hatred of NCAA Tournament expansion.
