@yimbyman Most casuals (myself included) like the schedule of the PL. Most of the time I can watch a match on Saturday or Sunday morning before American football starts. I’ll likely never choose watching MLS over an NFL/MLB/NBA game.

@DonteStallworth None of em. Go Tottenham. Get onboard before they launch to greatness

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

Pivotal 4 games is the perfect time to bust out of the slump. Need a 3-1 or 4-0 series.

[New York Yankees @Yankees]

Starting the week off right ✅

@jhaas06 @PeteSampson_ Moving to Vegas for the national championship game definitely counts!

@SheaSerrano I’ve got it 7 but I include miniseries with that and have Band of Brothers #1

@GoonerLad_afc @VanLathan Van seeing why he should run for the hills from Arsenal

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@VanLathan I was in this spot when I chose about 16 years ago. I chose Tottenham, and it’s been miserable. You should absolutely join me.

The Fourth of July was invented in 1993 to commemorate Lex Luger body slamming Yokozuna on the deck of the USS Intrepid.

It’s called Independence Day because the brave patriot Luger got the WWF out from under the yoke of the evil Japanese world champion.

After sitting here watching NBA free agency this year and overall NBA movement over the past 2 years somebody has to say it....

The new CBA was sold as parity, but the first and second apron are starting to function like a hard cap on player value, team continuity, and player movement.

Teams are no longer making purely basketball decisions. They’re making fear-based apron decisions. That means good players get squeezed, homegrown cores get broken up, fan-favorite teams lose their identity, and the overall product loses some of the nostalgia and continuity that made people fall in love with the NBA in the first place.

This isn’t about players not understanding business. It’s the opposite. We understand that the NBA is a business. That’s why the @TheNBPA has to operate with elite business acumen, elite negotiating strategy, and real foresight.

The owners and the league walk into these meetings with killers that continue to run circles around us time and time again with elite lawyers, economists, cap experts, media strategists, and long term business operators. Players deserve a PA that is just as sharp, just as prepared, and just as aggressive about protecting our upside.

Too often, it feels like players are informed after the fact instead of being truly educated and empowered before decisions are made. That cannot continue.

The next CBA is a do or die moment for us as players. It's only going to get worse for us. We need transparency, accountability, and a serious re evaluation of who is representing us and how they are representing us.

This is not anti parity. This is pro player, fan, and product. The league is strongest when players are valued properly, great teams can stay together, and the people representing us are operating at the same level as the people sitting across the table.

@DanteTheDon The amount of AI slop you fall for on here should clue you in about some of your conspiracy theories but I can’t figure out if you actually believe those or it’s just a bit.

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@MoveTheSticks If you’re specifically talking football pod, I go 3 shorter pods a week in-season. Off-season/free agency/draft/training camp times, 2 longer pods.

@bykevinclark I felt proud of myself that I clicked on the original tweet and saw I had liked it back then.

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@austinsprops When guys fix games don’t they normally do it to their detriment? The fix would’ve been to make sure they failed to cover the spread cuz that’s so much easier for a fixer to control.

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@Brentleworth @Caol_MacCormaic He recently explained this… he knew something was up but he kept looking down at the soup while he was walking instead of paying attention straight ahead. He thought the soup was maybe gonna explode

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@hotseatsports_ @adjebitdax @PatAndriola @jayakyake @YossiGozlan That seems like a very weird fit with Ant.

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@adjebitdax @hotseatsports_ @PatAndriola @jayakyake @YossiGozlan I saw someone else speculating all kinds of names. Trey Murphy seems to be in every other trade rumor I’ve heard that isn’t Giannis.

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@hotseatsports_ @PatAndriola @jayakyake @YossiGozlan I mean, it’s 5 spots difference, the picks mean virtually nothing. They prolly did that because if they are chasing another big contract now that Randle’s gone the 1st rd pick contract isn’t on their books along with Randle- 2nd rd picks don’t count against the cap year one.

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@hotseatsports_ @PatAndriola @jayakyake @YossiGozlan $33MM this year. $35MM player option next year he’ll prolly pick up. Don’t think they could’ve gotten a whole lot. Contenders can’t afford to add him, most rebuilds don’t need a vet in his early 30s.

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@hotseatsports_ @PatAndriola @jayakyake @YossiGozlan It was a salary dump. They’d rather have the cap room for a trade or FA signing.

[Bryan Bye @bryanjbye]

@drewgunns @KnicksMemes Someone will overpay for Mitch. (And good for him). Sounds like Knicks may be able to find a bench center with their 1st round pick, draft is so deep this year.
