Had a short lived sports show on AM radio, thankful I got to live that dream. I tweet about Ohio Sports teams. I am not the PBA Bowler named Kevin McCune.

@brndxix It’s pretty much like the bengals winning the Superbowl. We got a couple good players so we’re a contender but nobody’s actually concerned about us

[femiiiiii. @femiiiszn]

i hope the next global trend will be empathy and critical thinking.

The last time the Knicks had a lead in the NBA Finals was June 17th, 1994.

Yes, the same day as this:

New statement from Scott Pelley:

There has never been anything in America like 60 Minutes.

The Sunday tradition is the most successful program of any kind in history. For more than a decade, its innovative growth on every major online platform has extended its reach to countless millions around the world. This spring, at the end of our 58thseason, 60 Minutes grew rapidly with an unheard-of 9% jump in viewers on CBS.

“60” has been the number-one program in America for decades because our beloved audience finds integrity, quality, and humanity in our stories. When stewardship of the program passed to my colleagues and me, our responsibility was to expand energetically into a new age of media technology while preserving the values our audience expects. Now, the new owner of our network is casting this legend aside, apparently to curry a moment of favor with the Trump administration.

The waste is heartbreaking.

Last month, 60 Minutes lost its DNA when our entire senior leadership and two of our best on-air correspondents were cruelly fired without cause. Good people were silenced because they stood up for our audience. They stood for fairness against the forces of political bias; they stood for professionalism against chaos.

For my part, new management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them. Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done. Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.

At 60 Minutes, we have fought harder than anyone knows to save the program that became an American icon. We owed that to our millions of viewers. I am deeply moved by the thousands of wishes we have received to “keep up the good fight.” Most of the men and women of CBS News are still in that fight. But now the collapse of values at the top has become untenable. The leadership of 60 Minutes is no longer recognizable. The principles I hold dear are gone, and so I must leave as well.

I depart after 37 years at CBS with one emotion—a heart brimming with gratitude for the men and women of CBS News who encouraged and enriched my work, very often at the risk of their own lives. I pray for a day when those people and their ideals are honored again—a day when sanity, competence, and courage return.

We Are Living in the Dumbest Timeline

Donald Trump just posted a photo of a wind turbine next to birds and captioned it “Killing birds by the millions!”

He posted this without irony.

For every single bird killed by a wind turbine, nuclear and fossil fuel plants kill 2,118 birds. Coal alone kills roughly 7.9 million birds a year in the United States. Wind turbines? Between 140,000 and 328,000. That is not a defence of wind turbines.

We are living in genuinely, historically stupid times. Only rivalled, frankly, by the medieval peasants who blamed the Black Death on cats and promptly killed all the cats, which meant the rats multiplied, which meant more plague.

At least the peasants had the excuse of having no access to information whatsoever.

Trump has the internet. He chose this.

The People’s House has stood for 226 years. America hits its 250th birthday next month. Instead of dignity or reflection, we get this sad, trashed-out mess right on the lawn.

One photo that screams what he’s done to this great nation.

Statehouse Republicans have been defunding them via death by a thousand cuts while sending over $1 BILLION Dollars to unaccountable charter and private schools.

It’s time for Ohio Republicans to stop neglecting the Oath they swore to the Ohio Constitution. #FundPublicSchools

You said nothing.

He bulldozed the East Wing.
You said nothing.

He interfered with the release of the Epstein files. You said nothing.

He took over the Kennedy Center and renamed it after himself. You said nothing.

He accepted a $400 million airplane as a personal gift. You said nothing.

He threatened Canada, Cuba, Denmark, Greenland, Venezuela, Colombia, and Brazil. You said nothing.

He tariffed just about everyone but Russia, causing inflation and instability worldwide. You said nothing.

He attacked a nation during mediated negotiations. You said nothing.

His ill-conceived war killed 175 children on day one. You said nothing.

He alienated and insulted our allies. You said nothing.

His ICE Army terrorized and murdered U.S. citizens. You said nothing.

He committed murder on the high seas. You said nothing.

He co-opted the Justice Department and directed it to prosecute his political enemies. You said nothing.

It’s time to start talking.

@JBrink90 @StrivingFaith7 @DaaOneforOne @OnyxOdds @Tonkat0y There’s a steep drop off from their 3 biggest stars (in that Magic team’s case - 4, plus Rafer wasn’t that steep lol), respectfully though… *insert most NBA teams ever into that category…

[Kevin @KevinMcCune]

@JBrink90 @DaaOneforOne @OnyxOdds @Tonkat0y Jameer was an All star & returned for the finals. That team was not bad. People who didn’t live it/watch that team really need to not comment. Not saying that’s you, but this is a microcosm of - let me look at a graphic in ‘26 & allow myself to think what a team was in ‘09 #smh

[Kevin @KevinMcCune]

@Tonkat0y @OnyxOdds It was not. Hedo averaged 17 ppg, Lewis averaged 18 ppg, they were deadly floor spacers & BIG. & Jameer Nelson was the actual starting PG of that team & an All Star that season. Some of us actually lived it/watched it/remember it.

[Kevin @KevinMcCune]

@DekuDontMiss27 @OnyxOdds Nelson wasn’t a “bench” guy in reality, yes, he came off the bench to keep continuity team had had throughout playoff/& ease Nelson back, but Nelson had been the starting PG, & an All Star that season. He returned from being injured to come off the bench in the finals.
