No matter what you tweet. This actually happened. You can’t erase it.

Kyle Tucker receiving 130,000+ more All-Star votes than Pete Crow-Armstrong is a crime against humanity.

THE MOST OVERPAID PLAYER IN #NFL HISTORY:

Christian Watson just received a contract worth over $110 million.

$27.6 million per year:
Zero Pro Bowls
Zero All-Pros
Zero seasons with over 620 yards
Zero seasons with over 7 touchdowns
Zero seasons with over 41 receptions

INSANE 😳

[Just Another Year Chicago: Bears @JAYChi_Bears]

The Packers have $160.75M total between Reed & Watson with their new contracts.

In '25 combined they had
-54 rec
-818 yds
-7 TD

The #Bears have $33.6M between Odunze & Burden

In '25 combined had
-91 rec
-1,313 yds
-8 TD

And both still have 3 years left on rookie deals.

Love it

Nixon didn’t even attempt to tackle Swift at the GL in a playoff game. He didn’t want any smoke.

It’s baffling to me how many people are completely unaware of why this cover is “plain”

It’s not “lazy” or “uncreative,” it’s literally a recreation of one of the most iconic Chicago sports pictures of all time.

[Beastbrook @Beastbr00k0]

Russell Westbrook is reportedly the "kindest teammate" behind the scenes:

- Left an $8k tip for housekeepers in the NBA Bubble

- Gave Capela a luxury bracelet right off his wrist because Capela liked it

- Took Alex Abrines out to dinner when he felt lonely in OKC

- Gave away both cars that he won as a two-time All-Star MVP to families in need

- Sends Jordans and tracksuits to EVERY team staffer every year

- On a minimum deal in Denver Russ paid for dinners, bought clothes for teammates and more

- Great private charity work off the court

Russ is one of the most misunderstood players ever.

[Caleb Williams Fan Club @CalebFC18]

The Cubs have 3 walk-off wins since the Iceman attended Friday’s game🥶

[BaseballHistoryNut @nut_history]

Watching an inside the park home run is one of the most exciting plays in baseball. Seeing Pete-Crow Armstrong hit one while only taking 8 seconds from first base to homeplate is absolutely insane to me.

One of my favorite quotes from Ben Johnson last year.

Reporter told Ben Johnson “the bears weren’t supposed to win the NFC North.”

[Bears Facts @DaBearsTakeOver]

Caleb Williams stayed quiet while everyone crowned Jayden Daniels and Drake Maye.

No excuses. No noise.

Just leadership. Just production.

And when it mattered most… he reminded everyone who the best QB from that draft really is. 🔥

The research behind this is wild. If you played Pokémon as a kid, you have a tiny region in your brain that exists only because of Pokémon. Not a metaphor. Stanford put people in brain scanners and found it.

The study was published in Nature Human Behavior in 2019. They scanned 11 adults who grew up glued to their Game Boys and 11 who never played. When they showed both groups images of the original 151, the players' brains lit up in one specific spot every time. Same spot across all 11 people. The non-players showed zero response.

That spot is a little fold in the back of your brain that normally processes things like animal shapes and cartoon faces. In the Pokémon players, a chunk of it had been permanently reassigned. Their brains carved out a Pokémon department sometime around age 6 or 7 and just never took it down.

And the reason it ended up in the same place in everyone's brain comes down to the Game Boy itself. The screen was 2.6 inches. Every kid held it at roughly the same distance. So those 151 characters hit the exact same patch of each kid's retina, thousands of times, during the years when the brain is still soft enough to reorganize itself. Where an image hits your retina in childhood is what tells your brain where to build the wiring.

Reading works the same way. Humans invented writing about 5,000 years ago. There's zero evolutionary reason for a brain region dedicated to recognizing words. But every person who learns to read grows one, roughly the size of a dime, in the same part of the brain.

Brain-imaging research from 2018 actually watched it appear in children's heads as they learned their letters. It grew by quietly taking over nearby tissue that wasn't doing much yet. Stanford published a follow-up this year showing this region is way smaller or missing entirely in kids with dyslexia, and that 8 weeks of intense reading practice physically grew it back.

London taxi drivers show the same thing in a completely different part of the brain. Brain scans from a 2000 study found the region that stores mental maps had physically expanded, and the longer they'd been driving, the bigger it got. These drivers spend 3 to 4 years memorizing 25,000 streets before they get licensed. About half wash out.

The common thread is childhood. Harvard researchers trained young monkeys to recognize new shapes and they developed brand-new brain regions in predictable locations. Adult monkeys trained on the same shapes never got those structural changes. The young brain wires itself in a way the adult brain cannot replicate.

If you're wondering whether a Pokémon patch in your brain means you lost something else, no. The region sits alongside your normal visual processing areas, not on top of them. Your brain has hundreds of millions of neurons in that zone alone. The lead author noted that every participant in the study had gone on to earn a PhD.
