Patients say measles 'worse than expected' as Utah hits 350+ infections, doctors say Health officials plead with residents to vaccinate against measles as Utah hits 358 infections.

I will never get over how the result of going through a global pandemic that killed over 7 million people, including 1.2 million Americansβ€”and where we swiftly created an effective vaccine for itβ€”was massive growth in anti-vax sentiment, the rise of RFK Jr., and the return of fucking measles.

NCPG's Cait Huble on Problem Gambling Awareness Month (Episode 59)

I also monologue about the reasons sports-betting-focused mainstream content has mostly gone away, and I indulge myself with quick TV thoughts β€” on The Pitt, Shrinking, Paradise, Love Story, and Industry: open.spotify.com/episode/5Yt6...

Kicking off Problem Gambling Awareness Month on the LOW ROLLERS podcast with an interview with the NCPG's Cait Huble β€” talking about support systems, how to interpret spikes in helpline calls, what problem gambling screening entails, March Madness, shopping habits, and more.

Yes in this particular moment the blame is 99.9% on Republicans. A dozen R’s in Congress could together end this presidency now

I remember when trying to forgive student loans was massive overreach of Presidential power.

In fairness, he RAPED children. He isn't currently raping children. As far as we know. I'm, like, at least 53% confident he hasn't raped a child recently.

Tiger Flowers-Harry Greb: 100 years ago, a meeting of tragic adversaries It took 3,980 days. But finally, on February 26, 1926, the powers that be in boxing granted another black fighter a chance to challenge for a world title.

100 years ago today, Tiger Flowers defeated Harry Greb at Madison Square Garden for the middleweight title β€” a historic moment that would soon be followed by two stunning tragedies. A look back at β€œThe Georgia Deacon” and β€œThe Pittsburgh Windmill”: www.boxingscene.com/articles/tig...

Need a Kalshi market on Trump accidentally admitting tonight during the State of the Union that he raped 12-to-14-year-old children. It's a long shot, but if anyone can ramble his way into an unforced admission of statutory rape, it's this guy.

Floyd Mayweather vs. Terence Crawford: Boxing’s biggest possible fight If any fight can bring Terence Crawford out of retirement, it would be a very lucrative match with the recently unretired Floyd Mayweather Jnr, according to Eric Raskin.

May-Pac II, huh? Fine. Whatever. It isn’t the biggest fight that Mayweather coulda made right now. Not by a long shot.

Maybe Gorsuch could have thought about that before casting his vote for presidential immunity.

I hate Trump and his minions, but not as much as I hate all of his colleagues in the Republican Party, who continue to watch Trump's ongoing destruction of the country while doing nothing to stop it. A handful of defectors could end all of this tomorrow.

@harvilla.bsky.social Enjoying the latest ep on "The Rising," but two inconsequential critical notes:
1. That is not how you pronounce "Scialfa." My fellow Bruce peeps may douse you with fire.
2. Surprised no mention of Ben Folds' Rockin' The Suburbs coming out on 9/11. That's the one I remember.

Mario Barrios trainer Joe Goossen: β€˜I don’t have any enemies in this game’ Ryan Garcia has taken aim at his former trainer, Joe Goossen, for working with upcoming opponent Mario Barrios, but Goossen has nothing bad to say about Garcia – or anyone else, for that matter.

Ahead of Saturday's #BarriosGarcia fight, I had the great pleasure of speaking w/ Barrios' trainer Joe Goossen β€” about Ryan Garcia's stated animosity toward him, his extra-long camp with Barrios, whether he still gets butterflies on fight night, and more: www.boxingscene.com/articles/mar...
