What a game! Superb hockey. Well done Canada!!!!! So proud of my country. @NHL

You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.

P.K. says this better than I can.

Basketball deserves a better major league than the NBA.

You’ll find a better product (for the price of admission) in college, high school, the WNBA, and in minor-pro leagues.

Respect the fans. Respect the game. Stop complaining. Do better.

.@PKSubban1 weighs in on if the NHL could inspire the NBA to change the All-Star format to USA vs. the World ✍️

[Ben Forrest @scribener]

If the players are willing to take a pay cut equivalent to the revenue All-Star Weekend generates, then maybe we begin to talk about cancelling it.

Guys make insane money, miss a ton of games, don’t put in much effort during regular season …

[Ben Forrest @scribener]

Or maybe just fix it, like the NHL did.

Problem with the all-star game is, the players don’t take it seriously.

If they did, it’d be worth watching.

[Kevin Durant @KDTrey5]

I think it’s more fun to complain about the nba than to actually watch it. Crazy, cancel all star weekend and let’s just give everybody a break since we’re so miserable around this time…

I’m having trouble keeping track of who’s hosting The Daily Show. But it’s not 2008, so I’m pretty sure it doesn’t matter.

How will history judge us?

- We flirt with giving up on democracy
- Actively destroy the planet
- Trained AI that could make us extinct
- Let tech bros run the world
- Willingly submit to surveillance capitalism.

We’re the worst. We suck.

Can someone from @Google tell me how they justify putting fake news from #TheOnion in the Google News search?

Yes, it’s labelled satire, but misinformation is A PROBLEM.

Tech bros in Silicon Valley have decimated journalism.

IT’S AN ELECTION YEAR.

Love this for the Knicks.

Not so much for the Wolves.
