Little League players caught up in travel policies that could impact World Cup A Senior League World Series team from Venezuela had its visas denied because of travel policies that could impact the FIFA World Cup and 2028 Summer Olympics.

Soon TV will tell you the feel-good story of Venezuelan kids allowed to "chase their dreams” here. You won't hear so much about the ones who earned a spot here and weren’t welcome.

With a World Cup and Olympics on the way, how many more dreams will be denied?

Opponents of both tried forcing them to go right.

Hello. I can’t figure out how to turn off the dumb AI slop summary that shows up in message previews on iPhone’s email app. But it does make me laugh that every U of Texas press release says, “a brown bull head with horns.”

Why the Spurs showed faith in De'Aaron Fox and those around him The reason Spurs are paying De'Aaron Fox is because they think Wembanyama will be unstoppable next to him, Castle and Harper.

Best-case scenario for De'Aaron Fox’s new deal? He won’t be the only Spur who lives up to it.

Also: He’s very good! The two weeks he had with Victor looked amazing! Think people have forgotten that.

Have written and podcasted about this, but:

Fox wanted to be here. Placed total faith in a franchise that hasn’t won in a while. Put Kings over a barrel, gave Spurs leverage to get him for nothing.

Wouldn’t have been very Spurs-ian (or good business) to say, “Screw you, we have Harper now."

Didn’t realize you’re bilingual.

What Joel and Bomani discussed here about the slow death of generalists is something I’ve thought about during my job as a generalist, which was much more glamorous back in the salad days of newspapers and magazines and late-night TV.

Just think of how much more nationally recognizable the Tower of the Americas would be if we'd named it like everything else here and called it the Alamostick.

The power of good branding. Seattle picked a much better name.

I am sure all of you Minnesotans know better but Google Maps gives it a St. Paul address.

I looked it up and MSP airport has a St. Paul address, so I counted it.

49. Missing only Buffalo.

And even I know this: Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

The kid learned at least one thing from me, I reckon.

Chicago investment bros bought Whataburger (and you can tell, tbh).

People died from eating Blue Bell (and I haven’t had a scoop since).

Now this.

H-E-B had better hold on for dear life.

Despite several options at guard, Fox still important in Spurs' plans There was no way of knowing Harper would fall into the Spurs' laps when they traded for Fox, but the guard and his impending max contract create flexibility.

For Cowboys' Brian Schottenheimer, a gig earned with people skills Schottenheimer sees how no list of accomplishments on a résumé can match the experience and ability to make an owner – especially one owner in particular – feel smart.

They lifted that a good while ago.

Now on the loose in the streets of San Antonio and slinging a bottle of Courvoisier, Osbourne’s bladder “felt like a hot cannonball.” Osbourne, then 33-years-old, found a quiet “crumbly old wall” and relieved himself. It wasn’t long before someone exclaimed: “That wall you’re relieving on is the Alamo!” “The Alawot?,” he said he asked himself. Osbourne then found himself face down on the ground and in handcuffs.

RIP, Ozzy.

Why Jerry Jones' 'living for now' show is just another repeat for Cowboys Ideally, NFL franchises are either building toward some clear competitive championship window in the future or maximizing one that’s already open.

“Everybody in this room should know,” Jerry Jones said of a wall-less expanse stretching clear to Texas, “I’m living for now.”

The question is, what makes that so different from the last 29 years?
