This Houston-Utah game is as drunk as anyone in Utah can be on a Saturday night

[Steve Bittenbender @Stepbitt]

Why did Utah score? They didn't need it

[Steve Bittenbender @Stepbitt]

WTF did I just watch in Houston-Utah? That looked waaaaaay too caffeinated for 1:30 am ET

[Steve Bittenbender @Stepbitt]

@Cardsgirl88 Ummm... check the past two seasons 😕

[Steve Bittenbender @Stepbitt]

No matter how Utah-Houston ends, this weekend has to be a nightmare for the Big 12, right?

This is the third consecutive season that a team that defeated Louisville has fired its coach in the same season

I've piled on Scott Satterfield over the years, so it's only right when I give him his flowers, too.

Texas Tech may have been somewhat overrated at 8th, but they're still were a damn good team and the Bearcats gave it to them today.

Stopped them on 3rd downs and ran well.

i have a major idea,
someone just has to talk to me.

Air Force holding on to these time outs as if they carry over to next week

@LongLuke134174 Also, I just checked there is a tax reciprocity agreement between the US and France. I would assume that would cover in this situation.

Still, too my original point, regardless of taxes, he's still making way more than most.

Chris Olave "only" making $1.2M this weekend is not the outrage you think it is.

Perfectly fine with players making all they can, but we're taking about someone still earning in one day several multiples more than most people earn in a year.

🚨🚨THIS IS AWFUL🚨🚨

#Saints star WR Chris Olave could face a MASSIVE tax bill because New Orleans is playing in Paris this week.

Illustrative taxes on ~$2.21 MILLION of income:

🇫🇷 France: ~$997,000
🇺🇸 Federal: ~$820,000 — potentially offset by a foreign tax credit

Combined French and federal tax bill with a full federal credit under this calculation: ~$997,000.

Olave would keep: ~$1.22 MILLION before state, local and payroll taxes.

Under this calculation, 45% of the allocated income would go to French taxes.

THIS SUCKS…

Thank God Yandy Diaz grounded out against Abner Uribe.

Can't imagine how many strokes there would've been had that at bat ended in a strikeout or homer.

[Steve Bittenbender @Stepbitt]

Congrats! Keep fighting

🔔 I RANG THAT BELL!

The hardest nine weeks of my life are over, but the fight continues. Maybe I’m getting soft, but ringing that bell was a much more emotional experience than I was fully prepared for. 🧵

[Steve Bittenbender @Stepbitt]

I can see the advantage a 6-9 guy would have in the net, especially with that wingspan. Hoeever, playing goalie has to kill his knees and back.

[SportsCenter @SportsCenter]

At 6'9", Cooper Black is the tallest goalie to play in NHL history 👀

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband.

Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Andy Beshear is going to cost us a winnable governor’s race.

The box score will make it look like San Jose took advantage of a Sens team due for a letdown

That was far, far from the case. Yaroslav Askarov had a career game tonight and the Sens also hit a couple posts, too

Closest 6-2 game I've watched

[Steve Bittenbender @Stepbitt]

The Sharks goalie just pulled a save out of his Askarov

After beating Florida last night, tonight is not Ottawa's night
