Congrats to Manny Diaz, back-to-back STATE CHAMPS. Unlike Mike Elko, he actually wins rivalry games at Duke!

If LeBron Wants to Pass Jordan, He Needs to Leave L.A. (and Win) The Lakers are moving on soon — and 1 ring in a place like, say, New York City is worth more than 2 elsewhere.

Today’s post focuses on the only way LeBron can make a buzzer-beating push to pass MJ in the GOAT debate: Winning a ring that “counts” more. Based on a system that values rings based on their rarity to the team/city, there might be only 1 place to do that. 🗽🍎🚕 neilpaine.substack.com/p/if-lebron-...

Why are you all wasting so much time fretting over a Hall of Fame that doesn't include Barry Bonds?

NY Times quote from Diana, 39.

The whole thing with the tariffs. I work in finance. I think in the short term it's a shot in the foot. But I think in the long term, it may be a great thing for the country. So I'm hopeful that this will improve our economy and manufacturing.

Short term, I shoot myself in the foot. Long term, it's good news. I learn to walk without the foot. I do a three-legged hop, a tarantulan creep. Babadook-like movements. People will ask "why do you do this?" and I will say "it's important I blow my foot off for no reason." They respect this.

Shoutout to everyone who lived in Park Slope or Prospect Heights during the multi-year reign of VAN HELSING and MAN ON FIRE on the closed movie theater's marquee.

A reminder to young people that they used to build entire goddamn dioramas dedicated to cigarettes in Sports Illustrated.

The CFP may have a 3-loss team in the field this season. If it comes down to these 2, which looks more impressive?
