NEW: Both TSA PreCheck and Global Entry programs will be shut down by the federal government as of 6am ET Sunday, per the @washingtonpost. DHS says it’s prioritizing the “general traveling population” after funding for agency lapsed in shutdown showdown. washingtonpost.com/nation/2026/02…


Now this is interesting! This is never actually something I considered but IMO I think this is definitely something worth looking into. I don’t completely understand the pathophysiology and biochemistry of why seed oil consumption would lead to weakness and degeneration of various ligaments and tendons but I’m hoping someone is willing to look it - extensively. 75% of ACL tears are non-contact, meaning that the ACL itself was already loose and on the brink of tearing. Whenever it happened, that instance just happened to when the ‘straw broke the camel’s back.’ ACL tears are life-changing, often permanently in one way or another. For as far as our medicine and technology has come, it hasn’t seemed to have positively impacted the ACL tear rate. We need answers and it’s time to start looking in new places. As crazy as it sounds, there may be something to this! Please someone - a medical student, physician, researcher, whoever - look into this!!!!

For those unfamiliar, the hamate bone — which could cause Corbin Carroll, Francisco Lindor and Jackson Holliday to miss Opening Day — is a small, hook-shaped bone on the palm, just underneath the pinky, that is particularly susceptible to breaking. While the recovery is typically four to six weeks, hitters who undergo the surgery to fix it often talk about how their power takes months to return. It’s not like a soft-tissue injury; the return timeline on hamates is fairly straightforward. The time to full health, however, can be longer.



NEW: Ole Miss coach Joe Judge tells pregnant partners of players during the season that the father has to play good football. “He needs to be in another room, detached… he ain’t waking up for midnight feedings.”
