Note to PRs: Please don't call to pitch me a story. I am busy, and answering a phone call is time away from writing or actually talking to a source. I'd rather take the time to answer a call for an interview than be pitched a story that is still better explained via email

[Russell Gold @russellgold]

An update... Deloitte had a contract worth up to $107.4 million to "establish, administer and manage" the Texas Energy Fund on behalf of the PUC. Since signing the contract in February, it has earned about $12.8 million for its work... keep reading, there's more... ->

We are sad to announce Lawrence Ennali has suffered a season-ending ACL Tear. We wish him a speedy recovery and will be here every step of the way back to the pitch 🧡

[Jishnu Nair @jishnews]

(may be harsh on rice here but 99% of the time I think getting a second yellow is extremely dumb on the player's part)

[Jishnu Nair @jishnews]

What a dumb second yellow. Yeah harsh call maybe but don't even give the ref a decision in the first place! Just fall over when he sticks his face in yours, then you can have your revenge.
