Last 2 Nights In The NBA:
Wolves over Jazz… by 36.
Raptors over Bulls… by 30.
Hornets over Heat… by 30.
Thunder over Nets.. by 29.
Nuggets over Sixers… by 28.
Spurs over Kings… by 28.
Knicks over Pacers… by 26.
Celtics over Warriors… by 21.
This is officially ridiculous.

@DataRepublican My friend worked at the local grocery store in the late 70s. He used to tell us how much lobster was bought with food stamps. Nothing new here.

🚨 SNAP Shock: Far many more millions in Food Aid Spent on 🦀 King Crab, 🦞 Lobster & 🥩 Steaks than the Department of War 🇺🇸
From an official government research study of $6.58 billion dollars in SNAP expenditures, $1.9 million dollars were spent on king crab, $2.2 million dollars were spent on lobster and $28.4 million on select beef loins.
Federal SNAP spending in 2024 was $99.8 billion. Scaled up, that means SNAP recipients spent $28.8 million dollars on king crab, $33.36 million dollars on lobster, and $430.75 million on steaks.
DoW spent $2 million on Alaskan king crab, $6.9 million on lobster tail, $15.1 million on ribeye steak.
Ask any journalist pushing the "Hegseth is spending money on lobster" propaganda if they're willing to cut out those categories for SNAP recipients. They will not be.

@DataRepublican @DOGE_GSA It’s the digital advertising verbiage you will often see on 990s. It umbrellas many write offs with different names, crafted in such a way to meet tax code. The 990 department need to revamp all of it.

Still only 27.
Had 125 tackles, two sacks, 3 INTs, 2 TDs last year.
Feels like a Dennis Allen guy.

Former Browns LB Devin Bush reached agreement today on a 3-year, $30 million deal that includes $21 million guaranteed with the Chicago Bears, per agent Drew Rosenhaus.

And I’m betting there are some folks, maybe even some politicians, who made a boatload of money on this

Well, it turns out that oil tankers are actually crossing the Strait of Hormuz, but are turning off their transponders to avoid detection. In other words, people didn't know what they were looking at, panicked, then sent the oil prices skyrocketing because they thought that the disruption of supplies was greater than it actually is.

This story is now more than 25 years old and I have told it more times than I can count, but it hits very differently today.
I was anchoring SportsCenter one afternoon and Lou Holtz was on the show. I was quite excited to talk with him, he had been an icon all of my life.
He was very friendly, asking me all about myself as we walked toward the studio to record an interview. I told him: “Actually, Coach, it’s quite exciting, my wife and I are expecting our first child in the next few weeks.”
He stopped dead in his tracks and put a finger up near my face. And I’ll never forget what he said.
“Young man, the most important thing you can do for a child is make sure every day they know how much you love their mother.”
And, just like that, he started walking again.
Our daughter was born a month later, our son came two years after that. And I have thought about what Lou Holtz said to me that day about a million times since.
RIP Coach, thanks for the best advice anyone ever gave me.

Wonderful thoughts here from Summerville HS grad Preston Thorne who played for Lou Holtz at South Carolina. Cool comparisons to playing for Holtz and playing for John McKissick. Thorne adored Holtz and playing for him.

Really, really nice and insightful thoughts from Wando HS grad and Mt. Pleasant native Michael Flint on Lou Holtz. 25 years later, he's still so utterly thankful that a legend in the game gave him an opportunity to play D1 ball. "It was a lot of fun to say I played for him and it was really an honor, man"

The retirement of Drew Dalman is significant, but let's remember he was never elite despite making the Pro Bowl. Dalman had a rough game versus the Rams in the playoffs (as reflected by his 44.1 PFF rating). For the season he allowed 31 pressures, which was tied for third-most at the position! There's a real chance the Bears could get better at Center.

JUST IN: Tim Tebow shows senators a map of the United States showing every single location where someone is downloading, sharing, or distributing CSAM.
“We are losing the battle, and we are losing the war, and boys and girls are suffering for it…”
“Every red dot that is on there is someone that is downloading, sharing, or distributing [CSAM].”
“55% to 85% of them are also hands-on offenders, and we know that your average offender has thirteen victims in their lifetime.”
“The scale of harm right here in America is, to a certain extent, hard to comprehend, but that's why we're here.”

When are we going to get some decent refs in women's college basketball? Asking for women everywhere.

@cbefred I’m enjoying all the extra time I’ve had the last two years not watching them.

I have to say… I suspect this full teardown never happens without that embarrassing 41-point loss to MIA on 2.1.26— with almost all of the AKME pieces available — to another mid team that’s basically just a better version of yourself. What a total failure after 5+ years.
See Red Fred@cbefred
AKME defenders will say they were “trying to lose” this month… But February opened with a 43-point L to Miami WITH Vooch/Coby/Ayo/Matas. Then the ridiculous L to Milwaukee with Coby & Ayo playing 2 days before the TD. This is not a master tank. It’s a mess. #BullsNation

The US hockey team rolled into E11ven night club in Miami and led the club in singing the national anthem. This is phenomenal:
