Rich Paul to me on LeBron James' free-agency decision: "I don’t think this happens anytime soon." Should NBA teams be prepared to wait for weeks instead of days? Paul added, “I don’t think it’ll be the next few days." For @Forbes https://t.co/jyquTl74H1
Greg Abbott just appointed Huffines, the owner of the Epstein ranch & his party's nominee, to be TX Comptroller.
Why? So YOU pay for Huffines’ campaign. Last year, Abbott signed SB2, that lets the Comptroller spend your tax $$ on self-advertising as an exception to Govt Code Sec. 2113.011, which bans an agency from using “appropriated money to publicize or direct attention to an individual officer or employee of state government.”
I fought against allowing these taxpayer-funded campaign ads, because I saw it for exactly what it was: corruption.
It’s the Greg Abbott Corruption Tax, & we're all paying it.
Pirro: He caused damage and that damage was over $1000.
Reporter: How do you prove that?
Pirro: With an expert.
Reporter: With his bare hands?
Pirro: We believe it's his bare hands, both hands.
Reporter: Do you believe it was damaged before?
Pirro: He damaged it!
Reporter: Had had already been damaged before?
Pirro: He damaged the pool!
Just in: Free agent Norman Powell has agreed to a two-year, $45 million deal with the Chicago Bulls, sources tell ESPN. Powell joins the Bulls as a potent scorer after an NBA All-Star season in Miami, averaging nearly 22 points over the last two years.
It’s been funny seeing people try to dig up my old Aiyuk tweets talking positively about him like this wasn’t my dude for years
I believe how BA has conducted himself has truly jeopardized his future in the NFL and that has been my main talking point throughout this situation
I realize I have insight into this situation that most people don’t based on how we got here in the first place but it doesn’t mean I believe in how BA has conducted himself since he took to social media
His strategy was wildly flawed and backfired immensely, doesn’t mean I hate the guy
JORGE POSADA: “I CAN’T WATCH TODAY’S BASEBALL.”
Yankees legend Jorge Posada, a 4-time World Series champion and one of the faces of the dynasty years, (The Core 4) did not hold back during his interview on Abriendo El Podcast.
Posada said today’s game has become too robotic, too obsessed with formulas, and too accepting of strikeouts.
“The baseball being played today is garbage,” Posada said.
He also pushed back hard on the analytics crowd trying to judge Derek Jeter’s defense strictly through modern numbers.
“You can’t judge Jeter through a computer.”
That line right there is pure old-school Yankees.
Posada came from an era where putting the ball in play mattered. Moving runners mattered. Taking pride in not striking out mattered. He said back then, striking out 100 times in a season felt like you were not doing your job.
Now? Guys can strike out constantly, hit 30 home runs, bat .202, and still get paid like stars.
His message was simple:
The game got smarter on paper, but dumber between the lines. #yankees #repbx
1 player wants to be in SF, the other no one in the leagues knows if he wants to play football. The last time they shared the field 11 was the better player so of course you take the better player. Fans are gonna vote for the guy who wants to be here.
TJ Houshmandzadeh on Brandon Aiyuk’s recent video calling out John Lynch and Kyle:
“He might not play in an NFL stadium again if he don’t shut the fuck up. Like what is he doing?
Adam Peters, if you sign Brandon Aiyuk, the Commanders should fire you the day you sign him. What makes y’all different than the 49ers? You don’t think he’s gonna do to you, what he’s doing to them?
Does Shanahan have a little temper? Yeah he does. So when he sees you do some ho shit, he’s gonna respond because that’s just Kyle Shanahan. John Lynch is like 'let me patch these two up together because we need both of these guys' and that’s what he did— brought them in a room, had a conversation and they hugged it out. We good. This is old news.”

Brandon Aiyuk privately voiced frustrations with the 49ers as early as 2022, according to @JNay_LSS
Aiyuk called the team’s culture a “joke” and said they were “not about winning”
#RaiseHail#49ers
My guy… he needs to do the leg work. Reinstatement, get to the Niners facility and then get cut.. he’s done none of it.. so yea he’s probably not being advised at all of anything. Based on his videos and the contract negotiations he was a half ass type of dude
What’s lost in all the Brandon Aiyuk discourse is his relationship with Jayden Daniels.
These guys are best friends. Jayden knows him better than anyone. Washington is the team he wants to be a part of. Jayden’s mom, who is a certified NFL agent, also knows him well.
When you all claim he’s not being advised, I’m not buying any of it!
Jayden can easily tell him to just chill behind closed doors, yet we see more and more posts from him.
This is calculated, done with direct intent and is purposeful.
Why? I have no clue - but I can’t wait until the full story comes out - whenever that is.
Aiyuk: I value my sanity over millions. Take the money and let me walk.
Them: Then walk. File your reinstatement. Actually fire your agent on paper. Go clear your warrant. You got your money now do your own homework. We're not walking you down the aisle to D.C.
