Huge news for Clarity. Big thanks to @GLFOP for their diligent work

[Eleanor Terrett @EleanorTerrett]

🚨NEWS: The National Fraternal Order of Police, one of the key law enforcement groups involved in negotiations over the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act, is now backing the latest version of the Clarity Act, saying revised BRCA language addresses its previous concerns and preserves law enforcement’s ability to investigate crypto crimes.

The BRCA remained unchanged in the latest version of the bill released Wednesday, so it’s unclear what changes the group is referencing.

What the fuck

DEFINITELY was not expecting this paragraph in the story based on this tweet about Caitlin Clark and foul/non-foul calls.

He looks like an uncomfortable child performing a routine. Out of his depth. Stepping on landmines.

I hope he does more of these!

I don't think it's possible to overstate the profound psychosis afflicting the people who run that league and the media who cover it

This is…discouraging.

A woman posted a clip from Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey’s reality show, and there are Gen Z commenters who have no idea about this part of his life.

I don’t even like Bryson and I think this is absurd.

[Kyle Porter @KylePorterNS]

What's extremely interesting to me is this part of the R&A's statement about a "potential advantage."

I'm guessing Bryson was arguing that he didn't gain an advantage with where he stepped and where his backswing went. This is more or less what Smylie reenacted on Live From (can't believe I'm typing that sentence). He didn't seem to think the fescue being up or down made a huge effect on a facsimile of the swing Bryson made.

But the R&A noted that even a "potential advantage" gets docked. That's the same language used in Rule 1 in the actual rules of golf.

Related to this is the phrase, "the area of intended swing includes the entire area that might reasonably affect any part of the backswing, the downswing or the completion of the swing for the intended stroke."

This is ambiguous and somewhat arbitrary but based on that wording, OK, I guess I understand the penalty.

The broader point is that if this is going to be enforced on Bryson here, there should be a *lot* more penalties called throughout the year in the world of professional golf.

Spice up your life: Research shows that people who eat spicy foods every day have a 14% lower risk of dying than those whose intake averaged less than once a week, a physician writes in the Washington Post.

Capsaicin, the main active component in chili peppers, can increase “good” cholesterol, burn calories faster and lower the risk of heart disease. People who like spicy foods are also less likely to eat salty foods.

If you douse your rice and beans in sriracha sauce and prefer the spicy kind of margarita, it’s time to double down. Go all in on the burn. But maybe don’t try the Carolina Reaper chili pepper—that might warrant a call to poison control.

@united what in the hell is going on with you?

[Jim Geraghty @jimgeraghty]

Of course, much of this debate about Trump is overlooking or handwaving away the fact that Balogun really didn’t deserve a red card for unintentionally stepping on Muharemović’s ankle.

If you’re reaching the correct outcome under the rules, can it still be called a corrupt process? Do the folks upset about Balogun’s reinstatement realize they’re arguing that an exceptionally bad call by the ref must be kept in place, to protect the so-called integrity of the game?

RT @DanWetzel: The GOAT of international sporting corruption has weighed in …

[Jason Rogers @JasonARogers]

Seems to me the integrity of the competition was destroyed by a bogus red card given by a corrupt referee. But that’s just me.

[Curtis Houck @CurtisHouck]

WATCH: 'CBS Mornings' speculates the USMNT is now "tainted" with "a stigma" and any wins against Belgium and beyond in the World Cup will have "an asterisk" because FIFA overturning Balogun's red card has "destroy[ed] the integrity of the competition"

[Will Cain @willcain]

Such a spectacle to see all these euro soccer journalists and federations climb atop a moral high horse to say the integrity of the game demands that an incorrect call, enforced by an incorrect application of VAR, deprive the U.S. of a full squad.

[Jason Rogers @JasonARogers]

@BarkingCarnival This is such an odd thing to be outraged over.
