A surprise: Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby has been granted the injunction he requested by a judge in District Court in Lubbock County, Texas, per @PeteThamel.

Sorsby is now expected to be eligible for the 2026 college football season and will not have to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft.

On June 1, 2025, the #Tigers had the best record in Major League Baseball.

On June 1, 2026, the Tigers are tied for the worst record in Major League Baseball.

Quick lil PSA for my Lions fans on here: the only way Detroit could have traded for Myles Garrett is to trade Aidan Hutchinson + draft picks.

Sell the team and turn Comerica park into a data center

From Tigers game notes and Elias Sports Bureau: With Friday’s loss, Tigers have suffered a walkoff loss in each of their last seven road series, becoming just the 2nd team since 1961 to post that kind of streak. The 1992 White Sox were the other.

NEW NBA ANTI-TANKING RULES 👀

▫️Expanding the draft lottery from 14 to 16 teams
▫️A relegation zone: The bottom three teams get penalized with lower chances to get the No. 1 pick and flattened odds.
▫️No team will be able to win the No. 1 pick in consecutive years or win three consecutive top-five picks.

Did the NBA fix tanking?

Jon Favreau’s journey through Hollywood is unlike anyone else’s. I can’t think of another career in the industry that compares to Favreau’s. Somehow, the same guy who starred in Swingers also directed Iron Man & #TheMandalorian . I own a lot of Jon Favreau stock: I’m a huge fan.

Charlie Sheen says he smoked 24 miles worth of cigarettes over 33 years at 2-3 packs a day

"I smoked for 33 years and I started on Platoon because Oliver Stone wanted the character to smoke"

"There’s 20 in a pack, they're 3 inches, and if you line them up tip to tip, that's 24 and a half miles of cigarettes"

"I smoked a marathon and never ran one"
