Cool moment as the Firebirds entered the ice with members of the Mariachi Orgullo Azteca providing the tunnel celebrating Cinco de Mayo. They then did a beautiful Anthem. Nice start to a big game.

Tarik Skubal is being scratched tonight. But hope and belief is he will be OK. Seen as a precautionary move.

Surgery for Tarik Skubal. No timetable for his return.
Chris McCosky@cmccosky
Tarik Skubal has loose bodies in his elbow. He will need a surgical procedure, probably arthroscopic. Ty Madden is up. Another bullpen game tonight

how many wins for the Bears this year?
notes:
last year the Bears played the #9 easiest schedule
they won 11 games
of their 17 games last year, only 5 were vs playoff teams (3-2)
only 1 team played fewer playoff teams last year
they trailed in 9 games entering the 4th quarter & came back to win 4
#1 most 4th quarter comebacks in NFL
they were +22 in turnover margin
#1 in NFL
they were +103.8 EPA in turnover margin
#1 in NFL (by a mile)
opponents mad only 77% of FGs against Chicago
#3 lowest rate in NFL
but opponents only had 678 penalty yards against them
#1 fewest in the NFL
#6 toughest schedule in NFL in 2026 with 9.5 projected wins
how many do they get?

@DennisF 30-year Journo here. Still write directly into CMS.
Have I lost entire articles at the worst possible moment? Yes. Multiple times.
Did I say would change my ways? Yes.
Did I? Not even close.

@LACourtReport I was the 12th man on my varsity team in 1989 in Michigan and at the banquet where everyone earned some sort of recognition, coach game me the "Save the Princess" award, because I showed his son how to beat Mario Brothers at a team dinner. That was how good I was at basketball.

Inflation is completely out of control, you can’t even take 3 kids to a Detroit Tigers game anymore without spending an arm and a leg! Crazy!

Today we celebrate World Press Freedom Day, sponsored by UNESCO. Unfortunately, this right is often violated, sometimes flagrantly, sometimes in hidden ways. Let us remember the many journalists and reporters who are victims of war and violence.

The Pistons trail the Magic 60-38 in Game 6.
Thoughts?

@iAmGendron @Graham_Couch Me too, obviusly, but it feels uncool rooting for him to fail at his NBA tryout.

@shad_powers @Graham_Couch Not a weird position at all. I want him back.

@harrisk03106 @nickbateman33 I assume they play four or five toughies in the non-league, win a couple of them, lose a couple be around a 5 or 6 seed and then go 17-1 to end the year and climb up to a 2 or 3.
The usual.

@shad_powers @nickbateman33 Have you seen their schedule? You will know how good or meh Gonzaga will be. Less chance this year that their high-major regarded opponents will underperform

Interesting nugget by AHL guru @pwilliamsAHL -- the Coachella Valley is now one of six markets with an AHL team and a G League team.
PATRICK WILLIAMS@pwilliamsAHL
Another AHL market is adding an NBA G League team. Coachella Valley joins Chicago, Cleveland, Grand Rapids, Texas, and Toronto (Mississauga) as AHL markets with G League teams. San Diego (Oceanside) and San Jose (Santa Cruz) also have G League teams relatively nearby.
