Aaron Rodgers tonight after 3 plays on the Jets

@Ashkashhhhhh @KobeissiLetter The soft landing happened until these stupid tariffs were put in place and the war with Iran was started

That’s the exact same zone right before Bear Stearns collapsed and the entire housing market imploded. Mortgage rates are about to go nuclear. Housing freezes. Refis die. Nobody’s buying shit. The bond market is officially screaming that the “soft landing” was always fan fiction.

BREAKING: The US 30Y Note Yield rises to 5.18%, its highest level since July 2007.

@McAl65210 @dhurstell @lil_yawni @drantbradley What the hell are you even talking about? Bank loans are not subsidized by the government. If you’re talking about federal student loans that is a different thing, but even then it’s only “subsidized” while you’re in school and they only cover the interest payments mostly…

@waltabernathy @dhurstell @lil_yawni @drantbradley Money subsidized by the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT! Before Reagan, there was little to no involvement by private banks. Students got GRANTS straight from the government. Cutting the banks in increased the costs to students

Clemson is $1.5B in debt. Syracuse is closing or pausing 93 programs, UNC-Chapel Hill plans to cut spending by $89M over 3 years. Duke recently let 600 employees go in a $350M budget cut. Indiana public colleges announced a plan to eliminate or merge 580 programs statewide.

@Fullcourtpass How is Chicago not on this list with the absolute dumpster fire of an organization they have been since firing Thibs?

NBA players voted on their number one team they do NOT want to get traded to • Memphis — 35.8% • Washington — 11.7% • Sacramento — 10.8% • New Orleans — 6.7% • Brooklyn — 5% • Utah — 5% • Charlotte — 4.2% • Portland — 4.2% • New York — 3.3% • Detroit — 2.5% • Indiana — 2.5% • Milwaukee — 1.7% • LA Lakers — 1.7% (Via @TheAthletic, h/t @TheNBABase)

@RoselandChi1972 @Eric_Erins It’s rage bait lol

I’m baffled. If I read it correctly, this map thinks most of the South Side, the entire Southeast Side, and the East Side are somehow not Chicago. I get the whole anti-suburb thing, though it is so overdone and not entirely fair. But somebody doesn’t think the city boundaries encompass the city? This I have not seen before.

One of the greatest troll maps of the city ever conceived. A stroke of evil genius. I’m honestly mad I didn’t come up with it

@Ian_Gay_briel @Eric_Erins lol you fell for the bait

@Eric_Erins it's not trolling it's racism

@nolookchitown @marcusleshock @chicagotribune Fewer people gambling in Chicago is a net benefit for society

@marcusleshock @chicagotribune I cant wait to hear the word salad the Mayor says to explain this as a positive.

JUST IN: DraftKings is SHUTTING DOWN its sportsbook operation at Wrigley Field after just two years. The company says increased Illinois wagering taxes are to blame for the closure. In a statement published by the @ChicagoTribune, DraftKings said: “DraftKings has made the decision to discontinue onsite sportsbook operations at DraftKings Sportsbook at Wrigley Field following a review of our retail presence in Illinois. The venue itself will remain open, but in-person sports betting will no longer be offered at the location. While we are proud of what we have built alongside the Chicago Cubs, we are taking a more focused approach to where we invest in the state. The cost of operating in Illinois, including its high tax structure, makes it more difficult to justify continued investment in a standalone retail sportsbook.” The last day to place a wager at the sportsbook will be May 31.

@MI_Agent_X @marcusleshock @chicagotribune That is a good sign

@marcusleshock @chicagotribune IL is such a scam. I live in IL and I like to gamble small amounts for fun. They charge a ridiculous .50 cent per bet tax even in small $1 -$2 bets. It made me just stop because it took the fun away from it

@marcusleshock @chicagotribune Good riddance to them

@anonrespector @mattyglesias The Washington commanders are way more important to society than these bootlicking elites in bed with Israel and the oil lobby. We should require congress people to pay to be in their position, not the other way around

@mattyglesias Congress is comically underpaid for the importance of their job. All 535 members together have a total salary of 92 million. For reference the Washington Commanders spent like 260 million on their roster payments last year

What if they just owned index funds?

@McAl65210 @dhurstell @lil_yawni @drantbradley Banks get money by charging interest on the loans they give out

@dhurstell @lil_yawni @drantbradley Where did the bank get that money? Wouldn’t be from taxpayers now, would it?

@bradfitz76 @thekapman @MSuareo Best defensive player in the league lol come on now…

@thekapman @MSuareo Have you ever said that about PCA tho? He’s had one good streak of good baseball and quite a bit of bad

We need @thekapman to disrespect Colson more often IMO

@OleTimeHardball Yes 100%

You hold the deciding vote in the Hall of Fame case for Pete Rose. Does he get in?

@Horsed00d00 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage Bauer’s skill has 100% been in question. He had the worst qualified ERA last year in the NPB lol and he’s playing Indy ball now bc he no longer has it. If he was good enough to be on an MLB roster he would be on one

@waltabernathy @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage Bauer's skill has never been in question. If Bauer was a model citizen and was loved in the clubhouse, he would be on an MLB team.

Trevor, I texted you. If you have recently changed your number, please DM me. I have a proposal that would interesting.

@MrRoosterJoe @prodigycheech @CharliePat409 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage No I love my life lmao I am having so much fun at the expense of you pinecones

@waltabernathy @prodigycheech @CharliePat409 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage Man, you must hate your life so much that you respond to every single person in here. And when everyone’s talking shit to you, majority rules, you are confidently dumb as hell.

@corey_tyre @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage He had the worst qualified ERA in NPB last year. He is most definitely not good enough to be on a roster in the MLB

@waltabernathy @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage MLB blackballed him because they were scared women's groups would be protesting and become a distraction. Bauer is definitely good enough to make a MLB roster- look around the league at how many starters struggle to get 5 innings.

@CaliFunk2 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage Idk bro ur the one who keeps crying in my responses so it’s pretty clear who is crying here

@waltabernathy @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage No one is crying except you cause you because you only have a couple years left in life

@CaliFunk2 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage Well then you must have shit in your draws then bc something is making you cry like a baby lmao

@waltabernathy @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage You the only one wearing diapers Walt 👍🏻

@CXiminez1967 @PreacH0921 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage I don’t care

@waltabernathy @PreacH0921 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage or maybe you're just bitter that your life is likely just a short time away from the credits rolling and there hasn't been an ounce of entertainment or substance to the movie so far? It's ok. there's still time to throw in some crazy plot twist moment!

@PreacH0921 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage Seems I struck a nerve here lmao 😂😂😂

@waltabernathy @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage Bro look how red your cheeks got just putting the effort into typing this. Maybe you should find that gym

@prodigycheech @CharliePat409 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage Reading comprehension must be hard for you

@waltabernathy @CharliePat409 @JLucroy20 @BauerOutage In a league that you couldn’t play in on your best day 😂 shut your ignorant ass up.
