I'm going to continue dunking on every salty, idiotic Niners player.

"If you make Jalen Hurts play quarterback, you're probably gonna have a pretty solid day on defense." @RobbieGould09 on which team has the edge in the #SuperBowl
It's a very bad policy that will prevent would-be day care providers from finding work and will exacerbate the child care shortage. That's why challenged the requirement and is now asking the DC Circuit to hear the case. ij.org/press-release/

When I first heard that DC was going to require most child care workers to have college degrees I thought it sounded like a dumb idea. Then I read up on it and I still think it's a dumb idea. fullstackeconomics.com/p/dont-force-c

Only deadline move was a tinkering move to get this loser under the luxury tax so he can buy the Commanders. Sell the Sixers, Josh.

But thank god Josh Harris got under the luxury tax, so he can buy another one of Philadelphia's rival sports teams! Sell the team, you cheap loser.

If the Thybulle trade doesn't set up a bigger move I'm gonna be v upset. A minimal upgrade at wing and continuing to ignore the bigger concerns with this team doesn't make me feel great!

I know a lot of people soured on Matisse, but I’ll love him for ever. Not every player DMs you and sends you a signed jersey when the one you bought gets stolen. Thanks for everything, ❤️

Zach Lowe: “The biggest issue in BKN wasn't Kyrie, it wasn't Harden...it was Ben Simmons. He's a 0, Simmons has $80m owed to him over the next 2 yrs and doesn't produce." Windhorst: “Its one of the worst 3 contracts in the NBA” Lowe: "Is he even a starter now?" (The Lowe Post)

So the Sixers could get a playable backup center for a very reasonable price, but we're just gonna ride with the corpse of Trez, huh?

Boston is sending Justin Jackson and two second-round picks to OKC for Mike Muscala, sources said. twitter.com/ShamsCharania/…
I am once again asking the "anti-war" crowd to stop comparing a democratically-elected president to various rebel leaders and guerrilla leaders. Is Zelenskyy perfect? No. Is this an accurate comparison? Also, no.

The Kelces are a billion times funnier (and cooler) than the Mannings. When they retire, the media better be forcing the Kelces upon us at least as much as they shove the mannings down our throats.

While the court unfortunately granted these particular officers qualified immunity (because live-streaming is "different" from other video recordings), it has established precedent that future 4th Circuit cases about this won't permit qualified immunity as a defense.

“Obviously, Doc makes that game plan. They didn’t adjust which has been sort of a thing.”

Blake Griffin, who hit 5 threes, on if he felt disrespected for being left open by Sixers: “I don’t really take it as disrespect. It hurt them. That was their game plan. Obviously, Doc makes that game plan. They didn’t adjust which has been sort of a thing. No disrespect though.”

This Niners team is full of a bunch of giant loser crybabies. I think the media should stop talking to players from a team that got absolutely dog walked.

I talked to Philly's Jelloman earlier this week, who's taking time off from his bricklaying job to prep 4,000 lime jello shots for some pre-Super Bowl parties. What exactly goes into *that* many shots? Read my latest story to find out🦅

NEW REPORT: A proposed watershed project in Roseau, Minnesota would cost nearly $2.5 million more than originally expected and could flood the properties of several nearby property owners. continues to call for an end to this proposed landgrab.

Turns out that police officers who want qualified immunity don't like confronting the fact that the Supreme Court made up QI to avoid enforcing the Ku Klux Klan Act against police officers who violate our constitutional rights. h/t to 's article.

Without qualified immunity, how would government officials know that it's unconstitutional to enforce sodomy laws, arrest teachers for teaching evolution or force members of the Communist Party to register with the state!? h/t @jaredmcclain

Parking enforcement speeding down my street. I’m sure whatever they’re off to do is so important for public safety that they should threaten public safety along the way!
