I’ll forever be fascinated by JB’s endurance performing nonstop.
I was an artist during the Mid 90’s in my late teens, and even performing 2x over 5 days (without the dancing, just rapping 2-3 verses) was TAXING.
JB is forever the hardest working man in showbiz.

“Get Up Offa That Thing” by James Brown was released as a single 50 years ago today.

@Lizzs_Lockeroom Classic (Hev never really missed on anything) and one of the best tributes recorded in our era.
ALSO: from 4:45 (if i remember) onward, K-Ci completely went to church.

@biancapeart_ @GothamFC @nyliberty @NWSL @WNBA Gotham’s been looking like they’re on their Houston Comets 97-99 run. Love to see it.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

@Lizzs_Lockeroom I can’t believe it’s been over 20 years. Still a generational voice. He is deeply missed on all levels.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

@CanelaNYC I think what’s even more crazy is how FAST he raced to socials. Here i am holding on to the identity of my WNBA playing ex girlfriend, but these dudes race to socials with track shoes.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

@Mikeysurf @murphsturph As of now, unlikely. The footprint is tight and i think the previous Panthers ownership scooped up the land/buildings surrounding it attempting to build garages, but never did.
If any park were to go to CLT, it would likely be near Concord near the NASCAR race track.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

@cre8tivegent Loafs with white socks? Like as in ppl are wearing this? With a straight face? Oy vey.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

@EmptySeatsPics @BizballMaury Great point with the only child status.
One has to wonder if Kansas City or Vancouver has heart shaped eyes and tries to start flirting early, especially since both cities have venues ready to house them right away.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

I don’t think the league wants any team playing in an outdated arena (see Seattle 2008).
Since TD has no ties to PDX, cities like Kansas City, Vancouver and Tampa can swoop in and steal the team as they have modernized arenas ready to house them on Day 1. Should be interesting.

[Kurt Helin @basketballtalk]

Wow. Okay.

One of my pet peeves is taxpayer dollars going to help Billionaire sports owners. It's more complex than that with who owns the arena and the benefits, but this is a choice by Dundon. The implied threat of moving the team, good luck getting Silver/owners onboard.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

The NBA is not going to give up its expansion fees in Vegas or Seattle for the Blazers, but can see Tampa, Kansas City, Vancouver, and maybe Raleigh as relocation spots, though only Tampa and maybe Vancouver would be ready to host that team on day one without major reworking.

[Sports Business Journal @SBJ]

Trail Blazers owner Tom Dundon said he has no interest in putting money toward the Moda Center's expected $600M makeover.

Dundon expects taxpayers to foot the entire bill for a project deemed essential to prevent the Blazers from leaving town.

First and foremost, quitting a job for a money payout is no mas unless it’s money that allows for retirement.
Between purchases and managing monthly expenses, i do agree that it will be gone before July 4th.

[🤍 𝕂𝕚𝕥𝕥𝕖𝕟 🤍 @Kittenwaffin]

He won $40k betting on the Knicks.

So he decides to make a complete spectacle of himself and quit his job.

He will receive less than $30k after taxes.

I'd wager that he'll blow it on trivial things and be broke by next week.

In Chicago and a few other cities, we like to call this “they were imitating a Charlotte driver”

[Breaking911 @Breaking911]

Seattle’s Link Light Rail service was suspended after a driver somehow ended up on the tracks at Mount Baker Station, an elevated platform roughly 30 feet above street level.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

@riskifoId Combination of availability and costs to run a stop at MSG (insurance, liability, etc). It’s far cheaper at both Barclays + UBS arena than MSG.
Depending on the concert promoter, some will bite the bullet and run MSG (like Bieber did yrs ago), while others opt for Barclays/UBS.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

@Chicago_History @GiordanosPizza @portilloshotdog @spurs Tre Dita might have to be added to make the “salaries” match!

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

Interesting fact:
Mr Bloomberg has had the same black loafers and same black tie up shoes for 32 years and counting that are worn regularly, and gets them re-done (i think) yearly to maintain their freshness.

[New York Mickey @MickmickNYC]

Michael Bloomberg and Diana Taylor arrived at the ballet gala tonight when a photographer started begging him to run for mayor again 😭

“We need you back… we’d vote for you”

Bloomberg’s response: “You’re on your own” 👀😂

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

@rondaracha This is nuts because as a fragrance company, i can’t even ship cologne/perfume with USPS and have been read the riot act on more than a few occasions. Crazy.

[Chuck Holliday @ChuckHolliday]

Meanwhile, i can’t even ship cologne orders via USPS and it’s enforced aggressively.

[philip lewis @Phil_Lewis_]

The U.S. Postal Service is considering allowing people to ship handguns through the mail for the first time in nearly 100 years https://t.co/Eo1xblbPM4

Arguably the most important media figure in the second half of the 20th century. An undisputed 1 of 1.

Nashville & SLC check most if not all of the boxes for MLB.

The only way Charlotte can work for MLB is if the team is closer to/in Concord by the Speedway. The concept of CLT hosting the Milwaukee Brewers or Pittsburgh Pirates on a Tuesday night within city limits doesn’t work.

Subjecting 88 people to watch the Mets is a crime in itself.
Chances are half of them will sue for their 3 hours back.

[Baseball @mlbelites_]

Would you rather…

Take 88 friends to the Mets game Thursday (tickets cost $5)

OR

Attend the Knicks playoff game Tomorrow (tickets cost $440)
