OKC bouncing back from a blowout to beat the Spurs in a pivotal Game 5 without JDub and Ajay Mitchell should be the #1 talking point the last 2 days.
Instead, that headline was buried under these stories:
Wemby skipping media.
Plumlee elbowing McCain.
A (correct) non-challenge.
Wemby bad game.
A gambling company negatively using a player’s image without permission.
Free throws and flopping, of course.
And that is sports discourse summed up in 2026.
Just imagine…
The Thunder are getting blown out in Game 5 of a 2-2 series, and Shai, (who in the previous series threw a vicious elbow and didn’t even get fined for it), whispers something to Dort and JWill, and they proceed to check in and throw two cheap shots on a key player in garbage time.
Now imagine Shai skipping media availability after the biggest loss of the season.
What would the discourse be?
There’s a double standard with Wemby!
Failed is quite the reach pal. Still waiting on a text/call from him after I got shipped off like a piece of garbage. Can’t wait to see you twice a year, Coach.
The same Libs who cancelled:
- Rosanne

- JK Rowling
- Kid Rock
- Many more…
And shot Trump & Charlie…
Now want us to feel bad for Jimmy Kimmel? No.
Says a lot about humanity when people are furious over a lying, low-rated comedian losing his show, yet barely blink when a husband and father of two is assassinated in front of thousands by a deranged freak merely for disagreeing with him.
A chilling sign of the times.
I’m not sure who needs to hear this but Jimmy Kimmel got on the air and falsely stated as a fact that Charlie Kirk’s killer was MAGA, smearing an entire movement and Trump in particular with a vile disgusting lie - and at a time when the threat against those on the right is at an all-time high.
This was *after* we knew from the UT gov that the killer had been indoctrinated into LEFT-wing ideology, *after* we’d seen the shooter’s bullet casings reflecting furry/trans memes, calling Charlie a fascist and w/anti-fascist lyrics. It was *after* we had learned the shooter was living with his trans-furry boyfriend and believed Charlie Kirk was “full of hate.” *After* we learned that the shooter was not registered GOP, but “unaffiliated.” *After* we saw him pull the trigger just as Charlie discussed trans killers. There was zero - ZERO - evidence the shooter was MAGA, had ever been MAGA, or was influenced by MAGA in any way.
This was an intentional lie to GIN UP HATRED toward the very group of ppl most suffering in the wake of our devastating loss of Charlie and Kimmel did it willfully and even gleefully to a cheering complicit audience.
ANY EMPLOYER IN MEDIA WOULD SEE HOW DEPRAVED AND SICK THIS WAS. (In 2021 ABC fired Chris Harrison for saying maybe we should judge a Bachelorette contestant’s attendance (years earlier) at an antebellum party by what was considered offensive at the time. FIRED! His career never recovered!)
The Left doesn’t believe ABC was genuinely horrified by Kimmel (& instead attributes this to the FCC threat). That’s bc even they know ABC has no moral core (we agree with you - it doesn’t).
But what the Left doesn’t seem to understand and needs to hear is that MAGA has f&cking HAD IT. We are ANGRY. We are INCENSED watching the L smear us, our ppl, literally getting some of our friends killed (not to mention our president shot and nearly assassinated again weeks later) and then LYING about it. (“Trump faked his injury! He wasn’t actually shot!” “We have no idea what the motives ever are … if they are bad for our side!”)
I have zero doubt ABC was overwhelmed with absolutely furious calls/comments/emails from truly-FED UP viewers, and knew it had crossed a deadly serious line.
In short, GOOD RIDDANCE.
From colleagues, to guest pickers, fans and beyond, those around the college football community share what Lee Corso means to them.
We love you, Coach 🧡
