New and EXCLUSIVE at ESPN: Last Friday, I was given unprecedented access to the White Sox draft room where they debated taking Roch or Grady. It was fascinating and a close call. And all of it was on the record. It's a story of team collaboration: https://t.co/1ivEUcQa83
You came to Milwaukee 13 years ago as a kid from Sepolia with an impossible dream. Over the past 13 years we have witnessed you grow into one of the greatest players the game has ever seen, the greatest Buck of all time, and the driving force behind an era of Bucks basketball that will be remembered forever.
From the moment you arrived, you embraced Milwaukee as your home. You embraced the team, the community, and everyone who believed in you. Your connection with Bucks fans transcended basketball. You didnโt just play basketball in Milwaukee, you became the heart and soul of this city. You touched lives throughout our community and inspired people across the world. You believed in this city and its fans when the rest of the world doubted.
After 50 years, you delivered a championship to Milwaukee. A dream come true for generations of Bucks fans who never stopped believing. You gave Milwaukee hope. You taught us that loyalty still matters. That hard work can overcome impossible odds, and that a small-market city could still be on top all because you refused to stop believing. For one night, Milwaukee wasnโt just watching history, we were living it together.
Your legacy in Milwaukee is secured and will always be felt here. In the rafters, throughout the community, in the countless people you inspired, and the way you made an entire city believe that anything was possible.
Thank you for believing in Milwaukee and giving everything you had to this city day in and day out. You transformed the Bucks in every way, and left your mark on this organization for generations to come. Youโll always be family. Youโll always be Milwaukeeโs champion. Forever a part of this city. Forever a Buck. Thank you for everything, Giannis.
So to recap what happened with the USMNT:
โข Balogun received a bogus red card
โข VAR protocol isn't followed (no slow-mo)
โข Trump calls Infantino to ask about the process
โข US Soccer lawyers preapre & submit an appeal
FIFA's independent 18-person disciplinary committee then met, approved the appeal, and told Balogun he could play in Monday's match against Belgium.
That's what everyone is complaining about?
All rules were followed, and that same process is open to every other country. The only difference is everyone knows the red card was a mistake to begin with.
Free agent forward Ousmane Dieng has agreed to a three-year, $17.5 million deal to return to the Milwaukee Bucks, sources tell ESPN. Dieng had a strong finish to last season after his trade from OKC, and now Bucks officials finalize the deal with agents Michael Tellem of Excel Sports Management and Marius Rutkauskas.
Taylor Jenkins on coaching a young roster and how it fits his style:
"We have an opportunity here with depth, with guys who are versatile on both sides of the floor. We're going to have a standard that we are going to build day in and day out. This team will embody that."
