@CBSSportsCBB @LaurenShehadi Well, with any luck, Fr. Peter will fire his staff too. @CoachJayWright

"I'm gonna fire my staff. Yeah, I am ... The only thing I'm gonna do is fire them and get a new staff." - Villanova coach Kevin Willard to @LaurenShehadi 🤣

Wow. Just, wow. This is what delusional looks like. Actions have consequences.

@phillysport @ARayfor3 @MikeSielski What happened to college basketball is a bigger question. Portal, NIL, TV deals. College ball will never be the same.

What happened to Big 5 basketball? The Big 5 was a glorious thing that folks knew about beyond Philly. Now it isn’t much of anything anymore. The reasons are many. @MikeSielski breaks them down.

Crazy idea. Do something nice today.

@TansuYegen I had a cousin who used to get that stoned...

The body transfer illusion occurs when sight and touch are stimulated together, leading the brain to mistake a rubber hand for its own. The mind can be influenced more easily than expected 🧠

This is too true for words... really

The robots are comming...

It's coming. Are you ready?

Love that whole physics thing! This is great.

@AdaBada69 @joeroganhq Do you have a perception vs. perspective problem... 😂

@joeroganhq Just meaningless words unless you can cite concrete examples.

When Power Fails Our Children: From Epstein to Big Tech [031] From Epstein's jets to Big Tech's algorithms, the pattern is the same: powerful leaders choosing profit over children. Meta and YouTube are finally on trial. Their own docs call Instagram "a drug." This is a leadership crisis. @FrancesHaugen @rgmcgrath @WSJ @NewsHour @CBSNews @RollingStone open.substack.com/pub/ronboire/p… #LeadWithPurpose #ExecutiveCoaching #Leadership #SocialMediaTrial #PurposeDrivenLeadership

Now this is authentic marketing.

Might be the greatest ending to any basketball game I've ever seen. twitter.com/ThrowbackHoops…

@mikeroweworks That math thing is hard for politicians... 🧮

nationalreview.com/news/who-is-go… I don’t want to pick a fight with those who genuinely believe that reparations are a good idea, although doing so is tempting, especially at 37,000 feet with nothing better to do. But I do think it’s important to point out that many of those who claim to support the logic of paying every eligible black person $5 million have refused to contribute a single penny to the cause. Consider the extraordinary virtue signaling coming out San Francisco this month. Here’s the short version, in case the article is behind a paywall. An ordinance creating a reparations fund for Black residents in San Francisco has finally been signed into law, but the program lacks an identified source of funding. Mayor Daniel Lurie has stated that no city funds will be used, (even though he signed the law!) emphasizing the fund's reliance on private donations…none of which have been received. In other words, no one who pushed this preposterous idea forward has pledged a penny toward its practical implementation. I refer specifically to the philanthropists on The San Francisco Board of Supervisors: The 11-member star chamber who unanimously approved the legislation on December 16, 2025. More specifically, I refer to Supervisors Chan, Chen, Dorsey, Fielder, Mahmood, Mandelman, Melgar, Sauter, Sherrill, Walton, and Wong. The San Francisco Human Rights Commission is now tasked with overseeing this fund, which is intended to accept private donations to support recommendations from the African American Reparations Advisory Committee. Again - no many has been contributed. Not a penny. But the city has already spent approximately $217,000 on stipends for the reparations committee members who developed the proposal. If you think the whole thing sounds merely crazy, consider the math. The major cost component of the proposal is the $5 million payment for each black citizen who is 18 years or older. The Census Bureau estimates there are 35,445 individuals who are 18 years or older, given the age distribution of the African American population. Eligibility for the $5 million payments is very broad so we can assume that all African Americans 18 years and older currently living in the city will be eligible for these payments. Paying $5 million to 35,455 individuals totals about $175 billion. To put this in perspective, the city’s budget for the current fiscal year is $14 billion, while this proposed sum exceeds the current state budgets of all US states except for California, New York, and Texas. Again, I’m not sharing this to start a conversation about the wisdom or the folly of reparations. I’m sharing this to further illustrate the rank hypocrisy of our elected officials, and their endless desire to be celebrated by the people who voted them in. Today, those people are congratulating themselves for establishing a fund that absolutely no one is funding - including them.

What sensible forward thinking cutting edge leading nation is having a DEBATE on whether or not there should be VOTER ID?!?!!!! Like?!?!? They’re actually fighting NOT to have ppl present ID while voting for your leaders!!!!! Do you get it?!?!!!! Do you get it now?!?!!!

🚨 BREAKING: In a stunning blow to Democrats, 76% PERCENT of BLACK Americans want nationwide voter ID — in other words, the SAVE America Act White voters: 85% want it Latino voters: 82% want it Another leftist narrative just got decimated. Pass voter ID. GET THIS PASSED. 🇺🇸

The Space Race Has a New Scoreboard Yesterday, @elonmusk merged @SpaceX and @xai into a $1.25 trillion company. His stated goal: orbital data centers and AI compute in space within 2-3 years. Today, @NASA delayed Artemis II again. The mission originally scheduled for 2024, then 2025, and finally February 2026 is now pushed to March at the earliest. The contrast is brutal: SpaceX: $800 billion valuation, $8 billion profit on $15-16 billion revenue in 2025, 9,000+ Starlink satellites in orbit, preparing for an IPO that could value the combined entity at $1.5 trillion. NASA Artemis: $42+ billion spent over a decade, $4.2 billion per launch, a proposed 24% budget cut that would eliminate SLS and Orion after just three flights, and an Inspector General who calls the timeline "unrealistic." This isn't a critique of NASA's talented engineers. It's a recognition that the organizational models that got us to the Moon in 1969 cannot compete with vertically integrated, commercially driven innovation in 2026. The question for leaders: What assumptions about "how things are done" in your industry are about to be rendered obsolete by someone who doesn't accept those constraints? The culling doesn't just happen in technology. It happens to every organization that confuses legacy with capability. #nasa #LeadershipMatters
