Just a reminder a 5-year-old boy in a bunny hat spent more time in jail than any billionaire pedophile on Epstein's client list

@desena_tyler It is amazing how Jacob Rodriquez athletic testing was nearly identical to Luke Keuchly

The Miami Dolphins drafted two of my favorite Senior Bowl standouts in linebackers Jacob Rodriguez and Kyle Louis

The child [now 14] "was in the third grade when he started getting abused by this man" according to his mother. For that, the child rapist only got 60 days. Governor's office intervened directly! Doesn't have to register as a sex offender. Can become a lawyer again in 5 years.

American workers are 400% more productive than they were in 1950. The average American has less savings, more debt, works more hours, and retires later than they did in 1970. Somebody kept the difference. It wasn't you.

@jgd0634 Russell was 21-0 in winner-take-all games in NBA,college & Olympics 🐐

Something's on the line? Bill Russell, end of discussion.

@mikefreemanNFL It should make you question what else you dismissed or were blind to.

I don’t get why an adoption like this would make you understand that racism in America is bad. You should have been knowin’

@FinnHuckster @jgd0634 My thoughts as well

@jgd0634 I like the team C front court, great defense, sfoting rebounding, but I think team A would get them in a series, they're so strong 1-5 and Hill gives them some good passing at small forward to break that defense a bit. Larry Brown could probably coach either team to win it.

Which team will win a 7 game series? Team A Kevin Johnson Drazen Petrovic Grant Hill Kevin Garnett Alonzo Mourning Team B Lionel Hollins Sidney Moncrief Bernard King Mel Daniels Brad Daugherty Team C Chuck Williams Ron Boone Willie Wise Dan Issel Artis Gilmore

@getnickwright Good list. Havlicek is Top 20

I (admittedly) care about lists more than most, and I get irrationally upset at how many folks casually throw around “Top 10 All Time” and use it to refer to ~15 players. So, inspired by Jokic, I made this. A nice tiered list of 22 NBA legends, and where each is in that debate.

On a freezing December morning in 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower was reviewing budget proposals when his secretary nervously informed him that a 73-year-old woman named Mrs. Eleanor Mitchell from Abilene, Kansas—his childhood Sunday school teacher—was in the White House lobby asking to see him without an appointment, and instead of having staff politely redirect her, Eisenhower literally ran down the hallway, swept this elderly woman into a huge bear hug, and cleared his entire afternoon to have tea with her in the residence. What makes this moment so breathtakingly beautiful is that Mrs. Mitchell had taught a scrappy young Dwight Eisenhower Bible verses every Sunday from 1907 to 1911 in a tiny church basement, making him memorize Proverbs and Psalms when he'd rather be playing baseball, and she'd written him letters throughout his military career—through both world conflicts, through his rise to Supreme Commander, through his election—always addressing him simply as 'Dwight' and reminding him that 'character matters more than rank.' Eisenhower told his staff that Mrs. Mitchell once made him apologize to the entire Sunday school class for being prideful after he'd bragged about winning a spelling bee, teaching him a humility lesson that shaped his entire leadership philosophy, and he'd never forgotten how she'd pulled him aside afterward and said, 'Dwight, you're going to do important things someday, but never let success make you forget where you came from or who helped you along the way.' During their White House tea, Eisenhower introduced Mrs. Mitchell to every cabinet member who passed by, saying with genuine reverence, 'This woman taught me everything that matters—respect this lady,' and she gently scolded him for not attending church regularly enough, which made the most powerful man in the world laugh and promise to do better. When Mrs. Mitchell left that evening, Eisenhower walked her personally to her taxi, kissed her cheek, and pressed an envelope into her hand containing a check for her church and a note: 'For the place that built my foundation—thank you for seeing potential in a troublemaker farm boy. Your student always, Dwight.' What absolutely destroys you is understanding that Eisenhower commanded armies and led nations, but he never forgot the Sunday school teacher who taught him that true strength was moral courage, proving that the greatest leaders never outgrow gratitude and that honoring the people who shaped you when nobody knew your name is the most presidential thing you can do.

@WingfieldNFL @MADE_IN_DADE_ His stop-start is elite

Kevin Coleman Jr. says that he caught a 1,000 tennis balls a day starting when he was 5-6 years old, and he's had the same speed latter that he works daily since that same age. He also mentioned learning four playbooks in four years. Young man seems to love to embrace the work.

@LedyardNFLDraft @OllieConnolly Saw this on Discord. Aaron Brewer breaking huddle with Proctor & Paul 😆

What do @OllieConnolly and I think of every NFL team's 2026 draft class? How would we tier them? First, our thoughts on the AFC classes, including high marks for the AFC West, 1 team that might have changed their fortunes and 3 AFC drafts I'm low on jonledyard.substack.com/p/read-optiona…

This is 'Monuments', an art installation in Charlotte, NC. Artist Craig Walsh put a face in the trees to honor the souls of all the enslaved people buried in cemeteries with no names.

Este hombre se llama Mohamed Bzeek, vive en California y esa niña que tiene en brazos murió pocos días después de que le hicieran la foto, también en sus brazos. No era su hija. Era uno de los diez niños que han muerto bajo su cuidado. Porque Bzeek es padre de acogida y solo acoge a niños en estado terminal, para que no mueran solos. Nació en Trípoli en 1954, antes de irse de Libia corría maratones. En 1978 entró en Estados Unidos con un visado de estudiante y allí se quedó. Vive en Azusa, una de esas localidades del extrarradio de Los Ángeles por donde circulan camiones y donde las casas tienen una pinta genérica, agrupadas sin llamar la atención. En 1989 conoció a Dawn Rowe, que ya era madre de acogida desde principios de los ochenta, se casaron y empezaron a acoger juntos. En 1995 tomaron la decisión de dedicarse exclusivamente a niños con enfermedades terminales, los que nadie quería. Me pregunto cómo fue ese momento exacto en que dos personas se sientan en una cocina y deciden que van a abrir su casa a los niños que se mueren, y en cómo esa decisión se toma, sin actas, sin nada que la registre, y sin embargo organiza el resto de una vida. La primera niña que murió en su casa tenía un año, espina bífida, parte de la columna le crecía fuera de la piel. Murió el 4 de julio de 1991, mientras Mohamed se duchaba y Dawn preparaba la cena, él recuerda haber salido del baño y haber encontrado médicos en su salón. Lloró tres días. Desde entonces ha acogido a unos ochenta niños, diez han muerto en sus brazos. El condado de Los Ángeles, cuatro millones de habitantes, lo llama cuando no hay nadie más. Lo llaman el padre de último recurso. Muchos llegan sin nombre, nacen en hospitales y los abandonan, las familias no los nombran y en el papel pone "Baby boy", "Baby girl". Mohamed los nombra, les pone un nombre antes de que mueran. Un nombre es gratis, cuatro sílabas, pero ese gesto, cuando se pone el nombre, decide si un niño que vivirá tres semanas existirá como persona o como registro administrativo. Su hijo biológico, Adam, nació con osteogénesis imperfecta y enanismo, se ha roto casi todos los huesos del cuerpo. Dawn murió en 2015 de una enfermedad pulmonar y desde entonces Mohamed sigue solo, solo puede ocuparse de un niño a la vez. Cuando un periodista del Los Angeles Times entró en su casa en 2017 cuidaba de una niña de seis años con microcefalia, ciega, sorda, pies zambos, caderas dislocadas, no movía brazos ni piernas, tenía convulsiones. La había recibido con siete semanas de vida y le habían dicho que viviría unos meses. La sostenía durante las convulsiones y le hablaba aunque no oyera. Sé que no puede oír, sé que no puede ver, pero le hablo, tiene sentimientos, es un ser humano. En 2016, a Bzeek le diagnosticaron cáncer de colon, le pidió tiempo al médico, no puedo operarme todavía, tengo a un niño en casa que es terminal y tengo a mi hijo, que es discapacitado, no hay nadie más para ellos. En el hospital, ingresado, solo, dijo que por primera vez entendió lo que sentían los niños que cuidaba. Si yo a esta edad estoy asustado, cómo estarán ellos. Se operó y siguió. Bzeek es musulmán practicante. Su historia se hizo internacional en febrero de 2017, justo cuando Trump firmó la orden ejecutiva que vetaba la entrada en Estados Unidos a ciudadanos de siete países de mayoría musulmana, Libia era uno de ellos. Ese mismo mes, en Azusa, el único padre de acogida de toda la ciudad de Los Ángeles dispuesto a llevarse a casa a los niños terminales era un libio musulmán. Aunque mi corazón se rompa, dijo una vez, la muerte es parte de la vida, estoy con ellos hasta el final, los conforto, los quiero, quiero que sientan que tienen una familia, que tienen a alguien. Que no están solos.

After Trump officially reauthorized the use of firing squads, electric chairs, and torturous gas asphyxiation for federal executions, Pope Leo issued a sharp condemnation.
