@RobbRocc @Evan_Hand No you idiot. We didn't say an america invented it, it was invented in america.

@Evan_Hand Canadians invented basketball. Dr. James Naismith is the individual who created the sport and he is Canadian.

@ESPNFC When Iran wants to kill all Jews and wipe out the west. What sane country would openly let the terrorist in?

FIFA has revoked the ticket allocation for Iran fans at the team's three World Cup games in the United States, the national football federation said Tuesday. spr.ly/6011B80QvS

@JarickL @SKORNorth @jzulgad A first from a competitive team and Hartman are not major assets. Buium Rossi and Ohgren and a 1st are 4 major assets...

@TBuller23 @SKORNorth @jzulgad It’s one less major asset than Hughes who is significantly younger and better. If Detroit thinks they are trading Larkin for four major assets they are nuts.

BREAKING: #mnwild RE-SIGN Michael McCarron ✍️ - Reaction to deal - Impact on rest of offseason plans? - Dwindling free agent pool 🎙️: linktr.ee/skornorth

@JarickL @SKORNorth @jzulgad Hartman, Yurov and a 1st is not getting Larkin.

@SKORNorth @jzulgad Tremendous deal. I thought he’d get 4-5m aav. This makes Hartman expendable in a trade, hopefully packaged with Yurov and a 1st for Larkin. Keep Stramel for long term C prospect.

@RussoHockey @JoeSmithNHL @nytimes Seems like everyone is cool with losing Yurov and Wally for Larkin.

@aaron_b_johnson @thorku Idk, why did Zim hate Kirkco? My guess is they wanted more than what they had to offer. I could be dead ass wrong but I think JJMac has more of a ceiling than kirk does from being more mobile.

@TBuller23 @thorku Why?

He was mere days away from losing Kevin O’Connell forever for attending the birth of his first child.

@aaron_b_johnson @thorku KoC hates Nine.

@thorku What is this about? I don’t have context / curious to know more

@SeifertESPN Do you expect anything less from the leaders of Chicago and Illinois?

Stadium games have lots of twists and turns.

@BenjiNaesen @samiitooo Any chance Mads P is one of them after signing a lifetime contract?

Lidl-Trek has been throwing money at the wall hoping it sticks ever since Lidl became a co-sponsor, and has now replaced their team manager and multiple high-level management roles. Internally, multiple riders are looking for the exit. Visma-Lease a Bike has replaced staff members who left with limited culture changes, and continued performance.

I genuinely think there's no behind-the-scenes drama surrounding the Grischa Niermann departure at Visma-Lease a Bike. Sometimes people just move on to the next step in their lives, and it sounds like that's what's happening here. I worked with him in preparation of the Tour de France 2022, and Grischa was a pleasure to strategise with. He's someone who always valued honest input and isn't afraid to stand behind people who give it. I appreciate that on a personal level. I'm quite skeptical when I see a team, in this case Lidl-Trek, massively shake-up their management like this, but I'm certain Grischa won't be the reason if it goes wrong. 🤷‍♂️

@TRobinsonNewEra @elonmusk Maybe time you Brits quit following the Aussies and stand up for your country? Europe is a cis pool of pride.

Henry was murdered by racist police policy’s, that target white people. 6pm tonight Southampton police station. See you there.

@LidlTrek He's being forced out. Same with Skjelly and Cicco.

After 16 unforgettable seasons, Luca Guercilena will hand over leadership of Lidl-Trek following the 2026 Tour de France. From the very first Leopard Trek training camp in 2010 to building one of the most respected organizations in professional cycling, Luca’s vision, leadership and passion have shaped every chapter of this team’s journey. Thank you, Luca, for everything you have given to this team, our riders, our staff and the sport. One final Tour de France together. ❤️ Read the full official statement on our website and stay tuned for further updates on the people shaping Lidl-Trek’s exciting next chapter in the coming days. 📰racing.trekbikes.com/stories/lidl-t…

@LucGrefte @BenjiNaesen Fair. He helped move a low budget team into a top tier funded team. I hated letting Bob J walk in 2015, it panned out but he was the only young talent on that team. Consistently tried signing old riders for GC. Hated cutting Tiberi and a lot more.

@TBuller23 @BenjiNaesen I agree that that wasn’t their best part, some riders should have been race coached better. But as a person Luca was never in any drama, had good relations with his riders and sponsors and was clearly competent as manager

Grisha going from Visma to Lidl-Trek makes sense on its own. He was probably due a change, Lidl-Trek is basically German now and have the money Luca being pushed out as team principal after successfully running the team for many years is the part that feels very concerning

@LidlTrek He had not leadout besides Gee. Stuyven put the winner in perfect position.

"It was not a 100% bunch sprint day, but we tried to control it from the beginning. The guys did an amazing job and I have to say sorry to them for the fact that I didn't achieve the result that we were looking for." #GirodItalia Stage 18 report 👇 racing.trekbikes.com/stories/lidl-t…

@LidlTrek Stuyven is stronger than our whole leadout.

#GirodItalia A huge effort by the team to create the chance to sprint, but Jonny has to settle for 3rd 🥉 on stage 18

@wielervrspllng For being one of the strongest classic riders and leadout men. Has he ever won a reduced bunch sprint? The 2017 sprint against Diller still haunts me.

Tomorrow - stage 17. A lot or riders can win it. This short summary I gave before the race. Finally Jasper Stuyven day?? #GirodItalia

@LidlTrek Not a very good day. But glad you posted for the first time in 3 days about the second biggest race of the year.

Big day on the tools for Derek who now sits in 9th on GC 🔨 #Giroditalia

@Domestique___ TTT and Consonni's lack of form really hurt him today with the chase.

🇮🇹 Jonathan Milan's drought continues at 🇮🇹 Giro “Today we knew it would be hard with the last climb, we knew we would have to come back on. I can’t say any more than that. We did the maximum today.” 📰 domestiquecycling.com/en/news/we-kne… 📸 Cor Vos

@Domestique___ He rode for GC today, not the stage or Gee.

🇮🇹 Giulio Ciccone rejects GC leader talk after strong Blockhaus showing 🗣️ "No, no, no. Like I say, I want to win a stage. I think with today it's pretty clear, and now let's see." 📰 domestiquecycling.com/en/news/derek-… 📸 Luca Bettini / Cor Vos

The Vikes have a potential 6 of last 8 games on National TV which tells me the League has confidence in their chances to win the Division
