A $10 price jump is pretty tough. YouTube TV's versatility being able to watch seamlessly on phone, tablet, & TV, plus DVR, is the best feature for me. Quality is also high. I probably watch it more on the road (airports, hotels, etc) than home. Anyone else offer same for less?

[Joe Pompliano @JoePompliano]

YouTube TV is increasing its price to $83 a month starting in January 2025.

That means YouTube TV has now doubled in price over the last five years, from $40 to $83 per month, while also removing regional sports networks and other channels like MLB network.

That’s crazy.

If your version of Christianity wants to put Trump Bibles in schools but take free lunch out of them, you are worshipping something other than Jesus.

This is what it looks like to take the Lord’s name in vain.

Vamos, @RafaelNadal!

As you get ready to graduate from tennis, I’ve got a few things to share before I maybe get emotional.

Let’s start with the obvious: you beat me—a lot. More than I managed to beat you. You challenged me in ways no one else could. On clay, it felt like I was stepping into your backyard, and you made me work harder than I ever thought I could just to hold my ground. You made me reimagine my game—even going so far as to change the size of my racquet head, hoping for any edge.

I’m not a very superstitious person, but you took it to the next level. Your whole process. All those rituals. Assembling your water bottles like toy soldiers in formation, fixing your hair, adjusting your underwear... All of it with the highest intensity. Secretly, I kind of loved the whole thing. Because it was so unique—it was so you.

And you know what, Rafa, you made me enjoy the game even more. 

OK, maybe not at first. After the 2004 Australian Open, I achieved the #1 ranking for the first time. I thought I was on top of the world. And I was—until two months later, when you walked on the court in Miami in your red sleeveless shirt, showing off those biceps, and you beat me convincingly. All that buzz I’d been hearing about you—about this amazing young player from Mallorca, a generational talent, probably going to win a major someday—it wasn’t just hype.

We were both at the start of our journey and it’s one we ended up taking together. Twenty years later, Rafa, I have to say: What an incredible run you’ve had. Including 14 French Opens—historic! You made Spain proud... you made the whole tennis world proud.

I keep thinking about the memories we’ve shared. Promoting the sport together. Playing that match on half-grass, half-clay. Breaking the all-time attendance record by playing in front of more than 50,000 fans in Cape Town, South Africa. Always cracking each other up. Wearing each other out on the court and then, sometimes, almost literally having to hold each other up during trophy ceremonies.

I’m still grateful you invited me to Mallorca to help launch the Rafa Nadal Academy in 2016. Actually, I kind of invited myself. I knew you were too polite to insist on me being there, but I didn’t want to miss it. You have always been a role model for kids around the world, and Mirka and I are so glad that our children have all trained at your academies. They had a blast and learned so much—like thousands of other young players. Although I always worried my kids would come home playing tennis as lefties.

And then there was London—the Laver Cup in 2022. My final match. It meant everything to me that you were there by my side—not as my rival but as my doubles partner. Sharing the court with you that night, and sharing those tears, will forever be one of the most special moments of my career.

Rafa, I know you’re focused on the last stretch of your epic career. We will talk when it’s done. For now, I just want to congratulate your family and team, who all played a massive role in your success. And I want you to know that your old friend is always cheering for you, and will be cheering just as loud for everything you do next.

Rafa that!

Best always, your fan, 

Roger

True Christianity doesn't need to be made "great again." God reigns. Christ won the war over sin, death, and hell. We don't need an earthly savior, and we don't need unworthy men to lead us in church or in government. What we need is hearts that trust in Christ alone.

I've thought about this video once/week since the Bears hired Waldron. The writing was on the wall before he even got started - which is sadly a trend for Bears hiring decisions (players & coaching personnel)

Everytime the Pope uses #Saints is a good day 😂😂😂

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The #Saints are precious pearls and are always living and relevant, because they provide a fascinating commentary on the Gospel. Their lives are an illustration of the Good News that Jesus brought to humanity: God is our Father, who loves everyone with boundless love.

[Rich Stearns @RichStearns]

The entire Old Testament is about the failure of God’s chosen people to establish a kingdom based on political power. The entire New Testament is about the establishment of God’s kingdom based on forgiveness, love and service to others. Yet we still want to seek political power.

Brian Anderson nailed the call - Lane Thomas first pitch swinging grand slam

[Kenny Legan @KennyLegan]

They missed the best part of this call. Just before the pitch, BA says "Lane Thomas, loves the first pitch... Thomas swings..."

He set it up perfectly! Clip that off 😤

[Awful Announcing @awfulannouncing]

"Thomas swings, hits a high flyball, deep into left field! IT IS UP, IT IS GONNA BEEE... A GRAND SLAM! LANE THOMAS! WHAT A MOMENT! WHAT A SWING! IT'S 5-1 CLEVELAND!" - Brian Anderson ⚾️💣🔥🎙️ #MLB

The expectations for this video were high, and these guys went full Mondo Duplantis over them. Simply tremendous. 12/10, no notes. 🔥🔥🔥

Kinda surprised the Americans didn't make Bezuidenhout putt that 2-footer out with the way he's been playing down the stretch the last 2 days 😬

One of my favorite hoopers ever. One of the greatest what-if stories in sports but man, those Bulls years were the best since MJ. Forever a Bull goat 🌹

I watch this scene (and the Moonlight Graham scene) about once per week. Iconic writing, dialogue and acting. James Earl Jones, what a treasure 🙏😥

[Danny Deraney @DannyDeraney]

Goodbye to the brilliant James Earl Jones.

He gave one of the finest poetic speeches in cinema history. I still feel the same way about baseball all these years later.
