The ending to the #BisonProjectPodcast was strong — thanks to my story editor @maccabeem 👏🏽

I’ve been saying this for a minute: the parallels between Poch, to me, and Klinsmann are striking. Both are fantastic at putting up a facade and getting fan buy-in. Neither, to me, had any huge level of substance at the national team level (understand this is Poch’s first gig)

Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the White House press corps. Imagine if I had said to law firms that were representing parties that were upset with policies my administration had initiated, that you will not be allowed into government buildings. We will punish you economically for dissenting from the Affordable Care Act or the Iran deal. We will ferret out students who protest against my policies. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me, or a whole bunch of my predecessors.

⚽️ | The man, the myth, the legend: Coach Lincoln Phillips. Without his leadership, the 1974 team wouldn’t be celebrating this monumental accomplishment. Thank you, Coach! #BleedBlue

Sade was DEEP in their bag when they created 'No Ordinary Love'! 👏🏾🔥 There hasn't been a song since that sounds anything like it.

Happy birthday to former @HowardU⚽️goalkeeper Andy Terrell, who — at 6-foot-4 and 200+ pounds — is not hard to find in this team photo from 1971. Terrell was a key member of the Bison squad that was stripped of its national championship. #TheBisonProjectPodcast

With summer winding down, I wanted to share some songs that I’ve been listening to lately – and it wouldn’t be my playlist if it didn’t include an eclectic mix. I hope you find something new to listen to!

Caribbean Americans for Harris join the call tonight!

Alex Rodriguez asked a question. Reggie Jackson answered it. (Shouts to the producer and rest of the desk for staying out of Reggie’s way and just letting him talk. I doubt they expected this answer. But it’s a great few minutes of television.)

@meridak @nuggets @Timberwolves @theantedwards_ Yup — and now I’m rooting for them to finish this run with the chip. It would be great for the league — and for small-market teams.

Q: Is there a Season 2 release date for #BlackCakeHulu, the adaptation of the namesake 2022 book by Charmaine Wilkerson? A: Not yet. But listen closely to Charmaine on the #PressPausePodast, & there’s reason for optimism. Podcast link in bio! @Hulu @disneyplusnews @DisneyPlus
