I have YouTube TV and ESPN+ and can't watch Monday Night Football. This is the kind of greed they spoke about in the Bible.

There is no version of this weekend where the R&A comes out clean. From a neutral point of view, that's exact scenario seems to happen often with no penalty. I for one am hoping Bryson plays and wins - reclaiming himself as a fan favorite.

[Derrick Lawter @DerrickLawter]

Bryson Dechambeau got hit with a 2-shot penalty at The Open today for "inadvertently" improving his lie - but forget the ruling for a second. The R&A just put themselves in a lose-lose situation, and I don’t think they realize it yet 🧵

[Derrick Lawter @DerrickLawter]

And the media environment makes it worse. Golf press has been predisposed against Bryson all year. Does this same thing happen to Scotty or Tommy?

[Derrick Lawter @DerrickLawter]

Stand with @brysondech here. Unbelievably ridiculous and crooked penalty. Bad bad bad look for The Open.

Third group who washes the dishes immediately and never uses the dishwasher. Champions.

underrated class signifier: whether you put dirty dishes in the sink, as a temporary landing zone for the dishwasher, or whether you put them in the dishwasher directly

This is probably the ONE chance that anyone has to knock off the Spurs for the next 2-3 years..... can Brunson make it happen?

[Derrick Lawter @DerrickLawter]

Brunson will become the greatest Knick of all time if he wins this. Debate a wall.

If Wemby wins (he probably will) it will start the greatest run we will ever see by a basketball player and he will end as the goat.

The NBA made the lottery just confusing enough that you can never really question the results....

Reggie Miller: "He didn't think he had that in his game"

The shot in question: a wide open layup

[Derrick Lawter @DerrickLawter]

Watching Wemby and Carson Beck dominate their leagues for the next 20 years will be special.

"Due to the increased volume of collaborative team sessions that require my attention and direction, my decreased capacity for individual work within the constraints of my schedule is likely to cause operational pressure on deadlines."

Good luck replacing "In play, run(s)" with an AI agent buddy.

JUST IN: OpenAI is reportedly developing a smartphone designed to "make apps obsolete" by replacing them with AI agents.

Worrying works! 90% of the things I worry about never happen.

The NBA is unwatchable, even in the playoffs. Really sad stuff.
