This continues to be a war crime.

If there was ever a day that deserved to be 23 hours long, it was today. It's the 10th anniversary of Mom's death, it would have been Dad's 93rd birthday, and we got some very concerning health news about another family member. The nightmares were awful.

But we got through it.

I don't think I'm being ridiculous to ask F1 TV to tell me what happened to Oscar Piastri. It seems important that one of the championship contenders didn't finish lap one.

Losing to the Nets is a whole different kettle of fish.

March has not gone well for the Detroit sports teams. That's a stunning loss for the Pistons.

Dylan Larkin just lost an edge and fell really awkwardly - that is not how your knee is supposed to bend.

The Red Wings can't buy a 5v5 goal. Raymond and Larkin both had that puck sliding along the goal line and it just wouldn't cross.

Fil is a member of another rare club - he and Pavel Datsyuk are the only Triple Gold members who won Olympic gold during the gap in NHL participation. Datsyuk won in 2018 and Filppula in 2022. Fil also won the Worlds with Finland in 2022 to finish off his set in unique fashion.

Two members of the Triple Gold Club in the house tonight as part of the "Next Flight Generation" celebration of the Red Wings centennial.

Nicklas Lidstrom is one - along with every other possible achievement - but so in the group's only Finnish member, Valtteri Filppula.

Justin Faulk will certainly help the Red Wings, but they badly needed some 5v5 offense.

Dylan Larkin has gotten the biggest cheer of the night, but Mickey Redmond just came close when he was welcomed back after his neck surgery.

Jack Eichel looked startled by the ovation he just got at the Pizzarena as the Red Wings honored the gold-medal hockey teams and their own Olympians. Noah Hanifin was blase.

Dylan Larkin had the biggest roar, obviously, followed by Lucas Raymond, Moritz Seider and Megan Keller (who isn't here).

That's not what "obliterated" means.

Enough people to convince the GOP that sticking with Trump is their best method of survival.

Live Updates: Iran Says Supreme Leader Died During U.S.-Israeli Strikes

Here's the NY Times live blog of the US/Israeli attacks on Iraq. Start at the top and see how long it takes you to find *anything* that mentions the two schools destroyed by Western bombs.

Nine months ago, the United States "completely and totally obliterated" Iran's nuclear program.

Tonight, we're attacking Iran to disrupt their nuclear program.

A sizable percentage of this country thinks that's normal.

Now, 57 years later, NASA is saying it will be at least two years from the test flight around the moon to the crewed landing.

And that's without a dress rehearsal mission like Apollo X.

I don't want them to rush and cut corners. I'm worried they are taking their time and still struggling.

I see a lot of people comparing the new Artemis III mission to Apollo IX. That's a very fair comparison. Artemis II lines up with Apollo XIII and Artemis IV is obviously Apollo XI.

Here's the problem. Apollo XIII launched on Dec. 21, 1968. Apollo XI launched on July 16, 1969. That's 207 days.

Amusingly for a game in Ottawa - Canada's capital - neither team had a Canadian Olympian.

I'm pretty sure that was the first 18-minute horn delay in my 36 years covering the NBA.

They are the best team in the NBA when they are healthy. They aren't at that level right now, but they still have some serious talent.

Yep. It was coined by a team that hasn't won a title in 42 years.

Every point in tonight's Red Wings-Senators game - three goals and five assists - was scored by an Olympian.

All three goals (B. Tkachuk, D. Larkin (2)) and one assist (J. Sanderson) came from US players. Two assists (L. Raymond (2)) came from Swedes and two (M. Seider, T. Stutzle) from Germans.
