🇯🇵 Dear American friends, there’s something important I want to share from my heart.

I have never forgotten the tragedies of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. When people mock the atomic bombings, it breaks my heart thinking of the suffering my ancestors endured… It feels like my very existence is being denied.

But why should I hold hatred toward American families, children, and grandchildren living today?

Hatred only breeds more hatred.

We Japanese also launched the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. Talking only about the atomic bombs feels unfair.

With all that pain from the war still in our hearts, why hurt each other and distort our souls?

We have overcome those painful memories and built a beautiful bond through the US-Japan alliance. I believe it’s because we were able to share both our feelings and our wounds with each other.

During the Great East Japan Earthquake, I cried so many times seeing how you rushed to help us through Operation Tomodachi… I will never forget that support. 🥹

I truly love the American people with all my heart. You are my real friends. This feeling is genuine.

I want to cherish this Japan-US friendship and keep looking toward the future together. 🤝🇺🇸❤️

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.?

Because we gave them that L in 1776.

Thank you Giannis…

For keeping the Bucks in Milwaukee
For staying throughout all the noise
For a championship
For 13 seasons
For being the greatest to ever put on a Bucks uniform
For everything

[𝐆𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐬 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 @GiannisTake]

Forever a Buck.

[Michael Redd @MichaelRedd_]

The Bucks are dead. Long live the Bucks.

Players come and go. The team is the thing that lasts. It's the deal every one of us signs up for, whether we know it or not. You get your window to be the man and you try to give the city everything you've got while you're there. Eventually though, somebody else comes along to take your place.

I came up in the league what guys like Glenn Robinson and Ray Allen meant to Milwaukee. Later on I got a little run of my own there, and down the road I watched younger guys like Brandon Jennings get their shot too. Now, I don't belong in the same breath as a lot of these names, especially not the one we're talking about today, but for the sake of making my point I'll include myself.

Every one of us mattered to Milwaukee for a stretch. And every one of us got moved, got old, or got left behind when the team decided it was time. No shame in it. The name on the front of the jersey will always outlive the name on the back.

What Giannis did in Milwaukee speaks for itself. He brought a title to a city that waited 50 years for one. Two MVPs. Defensive Player of the Year. He stuck around when plenty of guys his size would've pushed their way out a lot sooner, and he gave that place everything he had for more than ten years. One of the greatest to ever wear that incredible Bucks jersey.

But the page always turns. It turned on Kareem all those years ago, it turned on me and the fellas I played alongside, and now here it is turning on Giannis too.

It's just time, for both sides, to get the next chapter started.

Thank you, Giannis. For the championship, for the memories, and for repping Milwaukee the right way.

The Bucks are dead. Long live the Bucks.

I’m in disbelief… still desperate to think this is part of an elaborate prank. That seems like something he’d do, right? The truth is, no matter how desperate I am to not believe it, my friend Oliver has passed away.

Oliver was such a unique soul, he had an ability that was unmatched by anyone else I know; to make friends in all corners of the world. Sincere friendship too, not just internet friendships of convenience.

He was one of the funniest people I’ve ever known. His style of self-deprecation was universal. Every media appearance he’s ever done was hilarious, refreshing and unique in a way that only he could bring.

He was a true artist, in every sense of the word. Everything he brought into the world, he brought with his true self. Every time he would come on our show, it would involve weeks of lengthy conversations of planning and brainstorming. Ordinary was never an option. It had to be the best possible appearance. And it always was. 

Music and film were his true passions. He produced every music video, every song with every ounce of his soul. He spent every dime to bring his vision to life. He had no use for money beyond what it could do to improve his art. He used to laugh about how he annoyed his label because he was always hitting them up for cash advances for his next big project. 

His support team was composed of his childhood friends, proof that he was the type of person that was fiercely loyal to those he loved. The type of genuine person that kept the same friends for life. And he was always adding more and more friends along the way.

He spent the last year traveling the world. Traveling across every inch. Visiting places I would never dream of going. He wanted to know the world and all its people, all the different types of ways people lived, so he could become an even more profound artist. I could see him evolving, growing, maturing, and the essence of what he collected was clear: love, friendship, art. All the things that transcended borders and time. Last we spoke, he was planning to go to Antarctica. 

“I totally get it if you can’t but it will be really special and would mean the world if you came through! Would love to see you both.”

That was the last thing he ever said to me. He was having an album release party. We didn’t make it.

Everything he touched was better for it. Every person he met was more whole for it. As a person, I’ve lost a dear friend and collaborator. But the real tragedy is that the world lost a true artist, a passionate and gifted story teller, and a radiant light that shined upon so many of us. His light is now extinguished and my life, and the world, is darker for it. 

I hope I can be more like Oliver Tree when I grow up. Bon voyage, my friend. See you on the other side. Life goes on and on and on without you.

NEW: A Kalshi trader has put $1,577 on Michael Penix Jr. to NOT win NFL MVP this season.

If they are correct, they will win $1,593 for a profit of $16.

Reunion: The #Giants are bringing back WR Odell Beckham Jr, as their former standout returns, per me and @MikeGarafolo.

Beckham, 33, recently worked out again for the team that drafted him, paid him, then traded him. Now, he’s back with NYG and John Harbaugh.

One Packers rookie is quickly generating growing excitement, and there's plenty of reasons to think he can be a contributor down the road in Green Bay.
