Wow, far too young. RIP to the best depiction of a coach’s daughter ever put on film

She is the moral center of one of the most crucial moments in Remember The Titans, when Yost finally put his ambitions behind the team’s goals after seeing her reaction

.@JamesTalarico on Texas officially banning THC:

“This bill is insane.

Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. Texans will still use THC — but instead of getting it safely from a local small business, they’ll go back to getting it from the black market. From the drug cartels.

This ban is a gift to the cartels.

We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst. 

Instead of fully funding our schools, guaranteeing healthcare, or making childcare more affordable — this Legislature is focused on banning a product that gives people a little peace.

We’re making people’s lives harder, not easier.

I want to leave you with a quote: ‘It is time to end needless arrests and incarcerations of adults for small amounts of marijuana for personal use.’ That wasn’t a Democrat. That was President Donald Trump.

To my Republican colleagues, I’m asking you to oppose the cartels, stand with President Trump, and vote no on this insane bill.”

James Talarico: “Trickle-down economics is not a theory, it is theft. They have been stealing the wealth that we all created. It’s why everything sucks right now. We have an affordability crisis because we have a corruption crisis. We don’t have a government of, by, and for the people. We have a government of, by, and for the billionaires”

Landon Donovan says America is missing soccer talent because kids can’t afford to play.

“Only 2% of kids playing organized soccer in America came from households that made less than $50,000.”

“If you don’t make $50,000, your kid cannot play organized soccer.”

“Think about how many kids you’re missing out on in this country because they can’t afford to play the game.”

“There is zero chance I could have played club soccer.”

“My mom made $34,000 a year, single mom raising three kids.”

“She couldn’t pay $4,000 for me to play club. Are you kidding? She couldn’t pay $400.”

“That’s not a good system to create good players.”

I do, to the baseline

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Last year, Microsoft made $101 billion in profits, got a $12.5 billion tax break from Trump & paid its CEO $96 million.

This year, it’s raising the price of an Xbox by $150 & eliminating 3,200 jobs.

Please don’t tell me corporate tax breaks create jobs. It never trickles down.

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

On June 19, 1865, African American communities in Galveston, Texas, finally learned of their freedom from slavery — two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation took effect.

For 161 years, Juneteenth has been a day of remembrance for the freedom that was delayed. It is also a celebration of the joy and resilience that flourished despite that delay.

The contributions of African Americans, whose struggle for freedom shaped our nation, are immeasurable. Yet too many Black families continue to bear the brunt of an affordability crisis that has pushed them out of the neighborhoods and communities they've built.

True freedom has a tangible impact on daily life: the ability to afford housing, earn a living wage, put food on the table, support a family, and create a future for generations to come.

As we celebrate today, we must recommit ourselves to ensuring this freedom is fully realized.

Happy Juneteenth, New York City.

NEW: Brendan Sorsby's agent, Ron Slavin, claims Cincinnati knew about the gambling addiction and took no action:

“If anybody should be questioned or catching heat, it should be Cincinnati. Because they knew for two years and never said anything or didn’t do anything about it. That’s the part of the story that gets lost.”

Great post, and this is part is absolutely spot on!

“There is a difference between defending the person and defending the mistake.

Texas Tech is in an impossible spot. Deep down, they may have hoped the final ruling would remove the decision from their hands. Exhaust every option, support the player, let the process play out, and if he is ruled ineligible, accept it. That is the cleanest outcome for a program trying to balance loyalty, discipline, public pressure, and competitive integrity.”

[Jacob Harris @JacobHarrisSBI]

What wild 24 hours. Here are 3⃣ misconceptions/misinformation I'm seeing regarding the Brendan Sorsby case:

1. He bet on games he played in.

He did NOT bet on any games he suited up for.

While not great he bet on games while redshirting, he never bet on a game he suit up in.

2. The Judge in this case is from Lubbock.

Ken Curry is a retired Tarrant County (Fort Worth) judge that graduated from Houston and UT-Arlington. He is currently eligible to practice law and his practice is listed in Colleyville, TX (over 300 miles from Lubbock).

3. Texas Tech did something wrong.

He made all of his bets before taking a snap at Texas Tech. Cincinnati was alerted to his potential gambling activity (per ESPN).

Texas Tech declared him ineligible and will now follow the temporary injunction (like the rest of the NCAA).
