@OhItsOklahoma Ozempic is such a bad look. Should only be available to people who struggle with obesity from birth. Shouldn’t be used to go from 135 to 105.
A sinistra, nel 2016, un ragazzo si trova in Nicaragua, è lì da due anni dopo aver abbandonato il basket e la famiglia per “portare la parola di Gesù Cristo” tra le persone più disagiate del paese. Una notte subisce una rapina e viene malmenato da quattro persone: gli serviranno sei mesi di cure dentistiche e due denti finti nuovi.
A destra, questa notte, c’è un ragazzo che ha trascinato Cleveland in finale di Conference dominando gara 7 contro Detroit, con 23 punti in 25 minuti in uscita dalla panchina. In bocca ha il paradenti perché, per esperienza, sa bene che i dentisti possono costare come un attico in centro storico a Milano.
Entrambi i ragazzi rispondono al nome di Sam Merrill.
@UnderdogNBA Tactical adjustment to counter I wish I had seen was Holland and Thompson on court anytime Harden Mitchell were. Plus defender on both and it’s a different series instead we chased O with Jenkins Lavert. Should’ve stuck to our identity which was D.
Kenny Atkinson on the Cavs' adjustments:
"The tactical adjustment we made was avoiding [Ausar] Thompson. We were just like, if he's near the ball, throw it to someone else."
@eric_ikyg Don’t get the Jenkins loveWe’ve got a young core that maybe needs one extra piece to compete. In the NBA I don’t think it will be hard to find a guy to team up with Cade. Cade Duren Holland Stewart are all under 25 with room to grow. Ivey knee never recovering set us back a bit.
Only players i wanna see back next season are Cade Cunningham, Ausar Thompson, Duncan Robinson, Daniss Jenkins and Tobias Harris. Everyone else see you later bro.
IM SOOO SICK AND FUCKING TIRED OF DETROIT SPORTS MANAGERS NOT TAKING CHANCES AND MAKING TRADED TO GO ALL THE WAY, AND YOU WONDER WHY WE ALWAYS GO OUT SAD!!!! SPEND SOME FUCKING MONEY, IMPROVE THE FUCKING ROSTER, MAKE YOUR TEAM... BETT....ERR!!!! IM TIRED OF MEDIOCRITY😡😡😡😡
@AtoZ_Payton Now that they eliminated the one team that could’ve stopped big market Knicks from the getting to final I won’t watch the NBA. The league is fixed now that they’ve partnered with gambling.
I watched some of the best 15-17 year old 🏀 players in the country this weekend hammer the shit out of each other on drives to the basket AND stay on their feet. Yet #NBA refs falling for this PHANTOM FOUL/flopping nonsense on the regular.
@langstonwertzjr Unfortunately there are officials at track meets who will do this. Been part of it in my past. Seen it in real time. Should always be about the kids at the meet but some are too immature to let that happen.
A DQ on the final event of the day cost Mallard Creek's boys' track team a state title.
A Mavericks runner raised his hand as he crossed the finish line.

Dear @RondaRousey@netflix
Ronda Rousey’s “Matchmaking” at MVP Productions Was an Absolute Disgrace to MMA
I’m a passionate MMA fan. I really love this sport. I respect the fighters who grind every day, who put their bodies and hearts on the line for real wars that remind us why we watch. But what I saw last night on Netflix with MVP Productions and Ronda Rousey was an absolute disgrace to MMA.
Ronda wasn’t just fighting on the card — she was the quote-unquote matchmaker, basically playing Hunter Campbell for the whole show. She’s the one who put these fights together. And man, it was shameful.
Look at the matchups she booked. They were one-way train wrecks from top to bottom.
Junior Dos Santos, a former UFC heavyweight champion and a legend in this game, got thrown in against Robelis Despaigne. It was over quick — another first-round knockout. Then you’ve got Felipe Lins stepping up against Francis Ngannou. Remember when Francis was in the PFL saying any opponent fighting him should earn no less than a million dollars? That was the price they had to pay to step in the cage with him. Yet reports say Felipe Lins only got $100,000 last night. One hundred thousand. While Francis walked with $1.5 million. That’s not a fight — that’s a payday with a body attached.
And don’t even get me started on Mike Perry versus Nate Diaz. Nate hadn’t fought in years. The last time we saw him he basically gave up in the cage. Now you’re asking him to step in against Mike Perry — a guy who’s still active, still bare-knuckle fighting, still the self-proclaimed “King of Violence.” Perry absolutely molested Nate Diaz. He knocked him out and left his face looking like it went through a meat grinder by the end of the round. Ronda put that fight together too.
Then the main event: Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano. Seventeen seconds. An armbar. Done. Gina had no business being in there with her after all those years away, yet Ronda comes out gloating afterward, talking like she’s the best of all time. Come on. That’s like Michael Jordan coming out of retirement to play against a high school team and then calling himself the GOAT again.
These weren’t fights. They were quick, scripted-looking highlight reels designed for easy wins and big paydays for the big names. No heart. No back-and-forth. No respect for the sport or the fans who tuned in expecting actual competition. Real fighters like JDS, Lins, and a faded Nate Diaz got fed to the wolves for entertainment value, while Ronda celebrated like she put on the fight of the year.
This is what MVP Productions and Netflix gave us? A cynical cash grab wrapped in nostalgia. MMA has fought for years to be taken seriously as a legitimate sport. Events like this make casual fans roll their eyes and call it fake. They make dedicated fans like me furious and embarrassed for the game we love.
Ronda Rousey, as the person in charge of these matchups, carries a big part of the blame. She let the fighters down. She let the fans down. And she let the sport down.
I love MMA too much to stay quiet about this. Fighters deserve fair shots and real opportunities, not to be used as cannon fodder. Fans deserve actual fights, not 17-second memes. And this sport deserves way better than the disgrace we witnessed last night.
@PatrickWCutler Anyone who’s an actual MMA fan didn’t watch it. I’ve paid 3,000 for a UFC event but didn’t watch that shit free and wouldn’t have went with free tickets. Diaz is a favorite of mine too. Not watching fake fights for money.
Why is Uthman Farooq, permitted to live in America, while preaching such treason & disrespect to our Constitution?
"America will be a Muslim country, and Islam will enter every house. They can be as mad as they want. I don't care, we are not apologetic."
He should be deported.
🚨 BREAKING: Austin, Texas police are actively searching for an ACTIVE SHOOTER who carried out 9 random attacks in the last few hours. Multiple victims reported.
If you see the suspect, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY.
🚨WHAT ON EARTH?!!!
An ABSOLUTELY MASSIVE "teen takeover" in downtown Detroit forced businesses to close early last night.
Teens were seen BREAKING INTO CARS, PUNCHING and KICKING each other, shoving kids into the STREET, and JUMPING ON CARS...
WHERE. ARE. THE. PARENTS?!!!!!
That Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano fight needs investigated. If that wasn’t a thrown fight then it was one of the most awful fights in MMA history. It’s safe to say that the UFC is safe from any competition.
@ProducerDrew_ Cap keeps going up so it’s naturally gonna happen. A better question would be who had the highest % of their teams cap hit when winning the cup. 10 mill today ain’t 10 mill 10 years ago
No player with a cap hit over $10M has ever won the Stanley Cup
Three players rhave a chance to become the 1st:
Nathan MacKinnon $12.6M
Mitch Marner $12M
Rasmus Dahlin $11M
