Caan should have won the academy award for best supporting! He and Pacino and Duvall were all nominated- split the vote - hence - the win for Cabrera - total miss on the Academy’s part! #SonnyCorleone #JamesCaan

[GangsterFilmz @FilmzLoverz]

To get into the mindset of Sonny Corleone, James Caan reportedly spent time around mob-connected figures and other underworld characters, just watching how they talked, moved, and carried themselves.

He wanted Sonny to feel like a real person, not just another movie gangster. Looking back at The Godfather, it’s hard to argue it didn’t pay off.

Her voice is sooooooo annoying.

When you asked about - Dawn Staley - he said, “ why wouldn’t they be good !” I guess the obvious follow up would be - “ Because you went after her on a public stage after losing in the Final 4 ???” Would that have been a reasonable response?

NEW PODCAST: My guest is @UConnWBB coach Geno Auriemma and it's one of the best podcasts I've done this year.

He's serving as one of the analysts on the Wings-Liberty game tomorrow at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN. In the podcast, he discusses a ton of stuff including his interest in broadcasting in a post-UConn life; what he thinks of the officiating right now in the WNBA and his thoughts on the never-ending discussion about Caitlin Clark.

Listened to the cast over lunch - it was good. I wish when Geno said “ There are a lot of things I would like to do after coaching ( and you were asking about media and calling games etc ). I was waiting for you to ask - “what other things Geno ? “ also -…

Thanks for your coverage ! I was at Scioto Saturday. How would you describe how the players held up in the extreme heat? I have never been so hot - with lack of shade - thank goodness the merchandise tent has AC. In your time reporting on the tours - had be top 1 or 2 worst

[Pete Pappas @PGAPappas]

See you tomorrow bright and early Scioto CC.

One round. One champion. One Sunday that just might go down in U.S. Senior Open history.

You mean like let Merrick Garland be appointed to the SCOTUS - When Scalia died ???? 🤪🤣. Selective amnesia
Yeah he was real kind to BO - LOL 😂

[Kinnick West @JaydenlikesIowa]

@OcrazioCornPop Mitch McConnell did everything thing he did to sabotage Trump’s presidency. He did more on stopping Trump when Trump was making America Great.

But when Obama and Biden were president the Turtle let him do whatever they wanted.

Not Willie - it was Jonathan Lemire

The Jalen Brunson lookalike competition in Washington Square Park yielded an unexpected five-year-old winner.

[U.S. Open @usopengolf]

"It's the shot of his life!"

228 yards. 4-wood. 72nd hole. The shot that won Corey Pavin the 1995 U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills.

We handed the club to some of the game's best and said... your turn.

Jim Ryun was cut from every team he tried out for, including the church baseball team. Then he went on to become the greatest high school phenom in history…rated ahead of LeBron…

Finally- someone understands. Thank you for telling them! It’s 1 million AND a Tumi Suitcase. Hence the taxes being paid as well.

[Joan Bowman 🇺🇦 @joan22]

@archeohistories Clooney gifted $1 million to each of his 14 friends and delivered them in TUMI suitcases.

[Matt Childers @radiolimamatt]

Depends…. See Indiana and Louisiana the last 2 weeks. Incumbents losing multiple races in this cycle.

[Ed DeRosa @EJXD2]

@radiolimamatt That should benefit the incumbent, though.

[Matt Childers @radiolimamatt]

Because only 20-25% - vote in the primary vs the general election.

[Ed DeRosa @EJXD2]

@danpfeiffer How does this square with people in my district thinking Gallerein can defeat Massie?

[Matt Childers @radiolimamatt]

ESPN ( formerly TNT ) is the top of NBA pre and post - head and shoulders above the rest… @insidethenba - but @PrimeVideo has a good crew and has potential. @NBAonNBC is way below average.

[Matt Childers @radiolimamatt]

Cornyn became a Senator in 2002 - preceded by Phil Graham. I don’t believe that adds up to 35 years in Senate ??? 🤔

[Anthony Scaramucci @Scaramucci]

Trump's personality is simple once you understand it.

You were nothing before I got here. I've carried you for twelve years and when I leave, you'll be nothing again.

Two examples:

1. Cornyn - 35 years in the Senate, voted with Trump 99% of the time.

The 1% he didn't — Trump dusted him.

2. Crenshaw - Lost his eye in combat serving this country, voted with Trump 99% of the time.

The 1% he didn't — Trump endorsed his opponent. He lost the primary.

And still people try to normalize this.

People will tell you he'll want Vance or Rubio to succeed him because that's what a normal Republican would want.

He doesn't want those guys succeeding him.

He doesn't want them taking credit for anything.

There's one spotlight in this administration and it points in one direction.

To not understand that is to not understand Donald Trump.
