@ChadMazanowski Oh yeah. I know. Followed this whole thing. Expected sanity to prevail but when it comes to college sports and the NCAA there is none

[Mike Wilkinson @wilkinson81]

What are we fucking doing? It’s illegal to bet on college sports as an athlete and this guy did it hundreds of times. Are there just no fucking rules anymore?

NEWS: A judge in district court in Lubbock County, Texas, has granted the injunction requested by Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby. He’s set to be eligible for the 2026 season.

[Chris Hummer @chris_hummer]

There's one rule above all that's critical in sports for the integrity of the game: Don't bet on your team.

Brendan Sorsby broke it. Yet the NCAA still lost in court.

On a historic ruling and an enforcement model with no teeth. Via @CBSSports:

This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.

More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.

And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.

Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.

The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.

Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.

We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.

@bdub2333 @stressedcubfan If we have the same guys and keep firing hitting coaches every 1-2 years and nothing changes, what does that tell us

[Mike Wilkinson @wilkinson81]

I’d rather vote for a data center in my front yard

[Chicago Cubs @Cubs]

We the People, in Order to form a more perfect All-Star roster and secure rightful places for our stars among the game's elite, do hereby unite in one purpose: Vote Cubs! 🙌

@bdub2333 @stressedcubfan It’s because it’s the players. Not the coaches

@ryanhallyall Do you even cover real weather anymore? Or is it just these daily AI produced auto tweets

[Mike Wilkinson @wilkinson81]

Dude is gonna be 34 and has over 500 yards once since Covid. Yeah I think that # is safe. My god.

[ESPN Insights @ESPNInsights]

Odell Beckham Jr. left the Giants with 5,476 receiving yards, the second-most in franchise history.

He now has a chance to chase Amani Toomer's 9,497 receiving yards to take the record 👀

[Mike Wilkinson @wilkinson81]
