I dont care if Jesus Christ was crucified in a church with a trans flag it is no longer a church.

As an American nationalist who isnt religious but believes America is a nation of Christ it is a utter shame that the church has been invaded..

Drake Baldwin just hit the longest homer of the 2026 season 😳

Sorry, no amount of propaganda is gonna convince people that this sucks

[Heat Central @HeatCulture13]

Lonzo Ball believes Prime Dwyane Wade is about EVEN with prime Kobe Bryant:

“I got D Wade at 3. Right behind Kobe. And it ain’t far. I’ll die on that hill. D Wade is giving Kobe some fits. And MJ. They’re better, but it ain’t no walk in the park. Not a prime D Wade, no. It’s even to me. Kobe’s better but it ain’t clear. Out of 10 days, he’s not getting the better of him all 10 days. I got 6-4… He has one of the best rings ever. Year 3, to take a team and be the man and get that sh*t done? I commend that.”

Feelin' peachy 🤩

The Atlanta @Braves are the first team to 40 wins this season!

A BEAUTIFUL play by Dansby Swanson 🤩

Matt Olson is having a monster year. Leads all of MLB in WAR, RBIs and runs, is atop the National League with 13 home runs and just hit a go-ahead homer to dead center off Andrés Muñoz. Atlanta has the best record in MLB in large part because of Olson.

Don't let anyone tell you the 2-strike approach is dead.

Enjoy this absolute masterclass from Mauricio Dubon.

After two whiffs on 97 mph fastballs he got a third. He dropped the leg kick, spread out, no stride and smoked a base clearing triple to right field.

MATT OLSON WALK-OFF HOMER!

[Derrick Maynard @DMaynard24]

@JoelKatz This reminds me of a statistic I once heard. 60% of all confined space deaths are rescuers. The rational choice is red because if everybody pushes red they all live. Sadly, the majority of deaths here would be rescue attempts.

[Just Baseball @JustBB_Media]

The Phillies and Mets are a combined 2-18 over the last 20 games.

They currently own two of the three worst records in the National League.

[Derrick Maynard @DMaynard24]

@Roto_Nino Or you have 2 closers that are better than 28 other teams best closer (Iglesias and Suarez)

[KFC @KFCBarstool]

WE NEED TO STOP THE INSANITY WITH YOUTH SPORTS. You can't play 3 goddam sports per season! Theres not enough hours in a day or days in a week. Every sport is 365 days a year now. Everyone has a schedule conflict and every league costs hundreds if not thousands. NOT SUSTAINABLE!

[Clay Travis @ClayTravis]

Matt Olson with a homer over the chophouse. And these Braves uniforms are truly elite. Make them the new standard. Love these.

Game 1:
Ishpeming built an early 12-4 lead, but Portland St. Patrick cut it to 14-13 by the end of the 1st. Ishpeming ramped up their defense and held St. Patrick scoreless until the 6:05 mark of the 3rd qtr as they scored 20 straight to open up a 34-13 lead. St. Patrick used an 8-pt run spanning the quarter break to pull back within 36-24, but Ishpeming went on an 8-pt run of their own a little while later to extend the margin into the twenties at 48-26 late in the 4th. Ishpeming wins the Division 4 State Championship 48-28. This is Ishpeming's 2nd title in 3 years.

6'2" sr Baylor volleyball signee Mya Hemmer (pictured, top-r) dominated the paint, swatting shots, pursuing the basketball off the rim, elevating to score in a crowd, and stealing any pass within her reach. Hemmer finished 1 blocked shot shy of a triple-double with 18 points, 17 rebounds, 9 blocked shots, and 6 steals with a couple of assists thrown in for good measure. Sr Michigan Tech recruit Jenessa Eagle (pictured, bottom-r) bounced back from a rough shooting 1st qtr to post a 19-&-11 double-double. Sr PG Brittanie Piotrowski added 6 points and 5 assists.

Jr Gracelyn Rockey led Portland St. Patrick with 10 points along with 6 rebounds, 3 steals, and 3 blocked shots. Jr Macie Smith added 5 points and 9 rebounds.

Game 3:
Morenci used a 7-pt run to flip an early 2-pt deficit into a 9-4 lead and extended their edge to 10 at 16-6 early in the 2nd qtr. Ishpeming chipped away and eventually took the lead at 21-20 early in the 3rd, which kicked off a flurry of lead changes.

A little later, Janessa Eagle hit a pull up jumper and then scored on a fast break layup to give Ishpeming their largest lead at 33-30. Colbie Ekins scored inside off an offensive rebound putback and Emersyn Bachelder hit a pair of FTs to put Morenci up 34-33 with 3:19 left. Mya Hemmer buried 2 FTs at 2:48 to give Ishpeming the lead back at 35-34. After numerous empty possessions each way, Camby Gauthier scored on a layup to increase Ishpeming's advantage to 3 with 0:34 remaining. Morenci had 2 opportunities to tie it, but Hemmer cleared the final rebound and dribbled out the clock. Ishpeming moves on to the Division 4 state championship game with a nail-biting 37-34 win.

Sr Michigan Tech signee Jenessa Eagle (pictured, #3) buried multiple pull up jumpers and also got to the rim in tallying a game-high 20 points. Sr Baylor volleyball recruit Mya Hemmer (pictured, #14) was once again a beast inside with a 15-&-15 double-double with 5 steals and 4 blocked shots.

Jr Colbie Ekins (pictured, #1) had an outstanding showing in her head-to-head battle with Hemmer, with 18 points and 7 rebounds. Sr Emersyn Bachelder (pictured, #33) hit 8-for-10 on FTs and was aggressive on the boards for a 14-&-12 double-double. Sr Evelyn Joughin (pictured, #2) added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, and 3 blocked shots from the PG position.
