@wbuxtonofficial As long as Daly & Lundqvist are back and Robb, Siegel, and Grosjean are out, I'm good. I'm not sure where the NXT Champ might land with Rasmussen resigning. Coyne/Foyt are probably the only choices.

@indy44 @Hinchtown Did he lose a bet?

@WWERomanReigns I hope TKO realizes everyone will now be holding up a middle finger instead of an index finger to salute you going forward.

Social media is increasingly anti-social

Only 7% of Instagram time & 17% of Facebook time is spent on content from friends or followed accounts. The rest is algorithmic video from strangers.

This is what happens when you condition algorithms on looking time rather than real social engagement. TikTok set the template; everyone copied it.

And over half of the long posts on Meta are written by AI. People are not engaging, or even creating the content on those platforms anymore.

Real human content and conversation has migrated away from these platforms to substack, discord, etc. https://t.co/qQzCIsxtPS

It was always an awkward moment when someone needed the red bat.

“Yeah, Billy, you can play but you gotta use the red bat.”

“But I wanna use the yellow bat like everybody else.”

“Motherfucker, you went 0-for-46 yesterday. The yellow bat is no longer an option for you.”

A PARENT’S JOURNEY THROUGH YOUTH SPORTS:

Age 5: “He’s got a cannon.”
Age 6: “He’s the fastest kid out there. Coach said so.”
Age 7: “Rec ball isn’t challenging him anymore.”
Age 8: “We tried out for select. Obviously made it.”
Age 9: “$2,800 for the season. Plus uniforms. Plus tournaments. Plus hotels.”
Age 10: “Cooperstown is basically a family vacation, right?”
Age 11: “He needs a hitting guy. And a pitching guy. And probably a mental performance coach.”
Age 12: “I’m not a crazy sports parent. The OTHER parents are crazy.”
Age 13: “We changed schools. For academics. (And also baseball.)”
Age 14: “Showcases are a requirement at this age.”
Age 15: “Ya his ranking just ticked up. We’re cooking.”
Age 16: “He just needs to get seen by the right school.”
Age 17: “The D1 schools want him to walk on. He’ll earn a spot by sophomore year.”
Age 18: “Okay, D2 is actually really competitive.”
Age 19: “He’s redshirting. Strategic.”
Age 20: “He’s focusing on school now.”
Age 21: “You know what? He’s so much happier.”

Roughly 7% of high schoolers play in college.

About 1.5% of those get drafted.

Less than half of draftees ever play one day in the big leagues.

The odds of our kids going pro are somewhere between “struck by lightning” and “find a $100 in old shorts.”

I love youth sports (all my kids play a bunch of them) just keep a good perspective my friends. ✌️

[Andrew Dreibelbis @ADrewD]

@jakequery This would be a cool venue to host the draft.

@1NCRDB1 Don’t let the racists win.

@btoppmeyer @usatodaysports Lane will never again be viewed as a hero.

[Andrew Dreibelbis @ADrewD]

@GoodmanHoops My only concern would be his body holding up, long term. I might take SGA because of the position he plays and the way he's able to trick officials into believing contact has happened. The amount of FT's he shoots each game is a big plus for his team.

This is easily the saddest time in American history. The absolute worst people are systematically destroying the country, and our system is completely failing to stop them.

Funny how debt is totally forgivable when it's tied to a failed business or a hedge fund. But the moment it's for school or a hospital bill suddenly it says something about your character.

@IndyCarChick I would've rather gone old school and had three sessions of 11-11-11. I'm obviously still going to watch, but I think this format is a bit hard to explain and could be a lot for a driver or two, depending on how it plays out.

[Andrew Dreibelbis @ADrewD]

@basementball Should’ve just done three sessions of 11-11-11.

[Andrew Dreibelbis @ADrewD]

@IndyCar @IMS Just do three sessions of 11-11-11.

[Andrew Dreibelbis @ADrewD]

@Eric_INDYCAR @500Indy1911 Just do three sessions of 11-11-11.
