Besides being a wonderful person, Dave exits the industry as clearly one of the best sportswriters in the history of our market, alongside Edwin Pope, Dan Le Batard and @gregcote as the most elegant wordsmiths in the history of South Florida sportswriting, in my view. He'll be missed.
@davehydesports Thank you for reflecting the best of South Florida through all the years.
Good god this is a crazy interview. Listen as Scott Pelley describes how Bari Weiss wanted journalists at CBS to cover the killing of Renee Good in Minnesota. This is why we can’t have oligarchs running our news outlets, this is absolutely devastating.

BOOM! Jamie Raskin is UNSTOPPABLE: Constitutional scholar, lawyer, and competent congressman Jamie Raskin is looking healthier and more energized than ever.
He just drew a moral line on the House floor that the GOP can't cross: "We draw a line against the rape and sexual violation of children."
He named the banks that bankrolled Epstein's billion-dollar trafficking ring: JPMorgan Chase, Deutsche Bank, Bank of America, and Bank of New York Mellon.
He named Alex Acosta—Trump's Labor Secretary—who killed the investigation that could've brought down the entire network. He looked directly at the GOP and said: "You have children. Don't you want to know?" Then he mentioned college sports teams. You know who that is.
Jim Jordan—who had a locker two down from Dr. Richard Strauss at Ohio State, whom wrestlers say looked them in the face and dismissed their abuse as "that's just Strauss," and who they say KNEW and did NOTHING while 177 young men were violated.
And the files? They show Elon Musk emailing Epstein asking about the "wildest party" on his island and responding to Epstein's offer of "no one over 25 and all very cute." JPMorgan lawsuits allege Epstein referred to Musk as a client WHILE moving billions for his trafficking operation.
This isn't about party. This is about truth.
Conservatives: You scream about "protecting children" while voting for the men who covered up the largest child sex trafficking ring in American history.
How do you sleep? How do you vote? How do you look your kids in the eye?
@MorEdge_Insight @BillAckman Here is the clip.
Palestinians don’t want a country they want to destroy Israel.
Even Arab leaders admit it.
Everyone is sharing the Bill Clinton clip where he describes how Yasser Arafat rejected a generous peace offer at Camp David that would have given the Palestinians a state on 96 percent of the West Bank, land swaps, and a capital in East Jerusalem. Clinton says Arafat lied to him and that the Palestinian leadership never actually wanted a two-state solution. They wanted to destroy Israel. It’s a video often shared by people like @VividProwess, and it’s an important one for people to see.
Of course, critics immediately dismiss it. They claim Clinton is biased or he’s pro-Israel. They’ll tell you that you cannot trust the American perspective.
Ok, so let us set that aside.
Now watch this.
In this powerful interview, former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, a major Arab leader who was directly involved in negotiations, says exactly the same thing from the Arab side. He talks about the Mena House Conference in Cairo as well as the Camp David negotiations of 1978. All failed because of the Palestinians repeatedly rejecting any offer. The Oslo accords were signed but because Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad were not involved, they derailed the accords and any chance for peace by initiating 4 years of terrorist suicide attacks in Israel. Then came the second Camp David negotiations in 2000 which Arafat agreed to, then rejected and instead initiated the Second Intifada.
Mubarak explains how the Palestinians refused to even participate in the Mena House conference of 1977. He describes repeated opportunities they were given, including a detailed document that called for Israeli withdrawal from the Samaria, Judea and Gaza, security arrangements during a transitional period, and other major concessions. The Israelis were willing to negotiate on difficult issues like who would control security. The Palestinians, according to Mubarak, kept saying no and wasting chance after chance.
He speaks with clear frustration about how for decades the Palestinian side has rejected peace initiatives and realistic compromises.
The video further shows footage from the PLO representative in 1977, as well as old footage of Egyptian president Sadat who was involved in the Mena House and first Camp David negotiations of 1978.
This perhaps is far more impactful than Clinton’s account because it is not a Western or Israeli voice. It is prominent Arab leaders who lived the negotiations, who represented the broader Arab world, and who had zero incentive to defend Israel.
When leaders from both sides of the table describe the same pattern of Palestinian rejectionism and violence, it becomes much harder to dismiss as bias.
The pattern is clear across decades and across different voices… generous offers, repeated refusals, and continued demands for everything while giving nothing in return.
This is not ancient history. It is the core reason the conflict continues today.

BREAKINGNEWS: 3.8% inflation, high foreclosures, small business bankruptcies, gas prices through the roof, 1.2 million layoffs in 2025, real wages down, and war in middle-east, and this idiot is proud of a fucking chart. Unbelievable. 🚨
Integrity.
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.

“How could it not be Jewish?”
That was Leonard Cohen’s response when people asked whether his music was Jewish.
Of course it was.
The poetry. The questions. The resilience. The refusal to surrender hope even after seeing the darkness of the world.
Cohen never treated being Jewish as something to hide, apologize for, or water down. It was woven into everything he created because it was woven into who he was.
He believed in peace. He believed in humanity. But he also understood that peace requires confronting reality, not escaping it.
There is something beautiful about that kind of confidence. Not loud. Not performative. Just deeply rooted.
Leonard Cohen didn’t become great despite being Jewish.
He became Leonard Cohen by being unapologetically Jewish.
And that’s something worth being proud of. 🇮🇱🎶
RETWEET if you support Scott Pelley after CBS News has just fired him.
@Kyle_Sielaff @IsaacAzout So I paid $100 to watch the Marlins. Tonight I’m babysitting my grandsons. We can’t see the game because it’s not on local tv and they (smartly) did not pay. How am I to make my kids into baseball fans when they can’t see their local team on tv!
Happy Pride Month, everyone!
It’s as important as ever that we support our family in the LGBTQ+ community, not just here in the month of June.
Gay and Trans rights are human rights and we should never forget that.
A message to all sane Republicans:
He pardoned 1,600 violent criminals.
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.
Breaking NYT:
In a move that disproportionately targets women and minority officers, Pete Hegseth recently blocked the promotions of at least seven Navy officers who had been selected by a board of senior Navy admirals.
The decision appears driven by his anti-diversity stance rather than based on merit. https://t.co/9eesu4F4Jo
The right-wing smear campaign against Texas State Rep. James Talarico just hit a new low—and immediately blew up in its face.
After days of schoolyard taunts and bizarre attacks, with MAGA figures falsely claiming Talarico is transgender or lying that he is vegan, the New York Post decided to run an “exposé” aimed at “outing” his longtime girlfriend, who has largely stayed out of the public spotlight.
Their headline?
“Dem. Senate candidate James Talarico’s mysterious girlfriend revealed — and she’s vegan.”
Yes, seriously.
The story was so ridiculous that it instantly became a punchline. As Brian Tyler Cohen put it: “Congrats to the GOP for forcing the entire country talk about @JamesTalarico’s girlfriend, who it turns out is super hot.”
Even more amusing, buried in the article is the fact that Brianna Menard reportedly descends from Michel Branamour Menard, the Canadian fur trader who founded Galveston, signed the Texas Declaration of Independence, and for whom Menard County is named.
Meanwhile, Republicans are asking Texans to rally behind Ken Paxton—a politician who has been indicted, impeached, accused of corruption by members of his own party, had a longtime extramarital affair, and was recently divorced after his wife cited biblical grounds.
At a time when Texans are worried about healthcare, schools, housing costs, and the electric grid, this is apparently what the right-wing attack machine has decided to focus on.
The story didn’t expose James Talarico. It exposed the desperation of his opponents.
