JUST IN: 76ers-Knicks was the most watched primetime opening night game ever, the NBA says.

There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal U.S. Senator.

🚨🚨BREAKING: Dolly Parton’s sister, Stella Parton, says a Tennessee voting machine repeatedly switched her selection to Republican Marsha Blackburn, forcing her to correct her ballot THREE TIMES before voting. She’s not alone. Other Tennessee voters have reported similar problems while attempting to vote for Democrats.

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

We are the most tortured fanbase in the history of sports.
33 straight Top 25 losses.
A million straight 1 score losses.
You could not have scripted a worse way to lose tonight.
We find ways to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory every single game.
It is the single most cursed program in the history of organized sports

Playing/Coaching not to lose instead of playing/coaching to win will hardly ever end well. Looking at that final drive right now. My biggest knock on Rhule is he never looks, seems or sounds confident in tight-game, game management situations. And if that’s the case, I know enough about leadership to know that it will trickle down to everyone else from assistant coaches to the players. If the head coach is unsure then so will everyone else be. Everything and everyone just looked tight at the end. That’s a recurring theme with Rhule-coached teams.

Just got this text…I didnt catch it right away, but this is 100% an illegal formation…penalty all day long.
I’m sick about this game.

2026 @FCPPangos All-Midwest Frosh/Soph Camp Notes: really liked what I saw from 6-7 2029 Zahari Threatt (De La Salle/Chicago IL). Active & athletic F runs floor well and can finish through traffic. Physical rebounder & defender with legit HM potential !

2026 @FCPPangos All-Midwest Frosh/Soph Camp Notes: fresh off an impressive outing at last weekend's USA Basketball JNT Mini-Camp @ Colo Springs CO, 6-3 2030 Robert Smith Jr. (Marist/Chicago IL). Son of retired & legendary Simeon coach Robert Smith Sr. is a quick lead guard with length, talent & excellent long-term upside. @NBNMagazine

Trump can try to blame the media all he wants because we know he never accepts responsibility for anything, but the Zacharia debacle was 100% his fault for appointing some utterly unqualified for a senior government position because he liked how she looked on Fox. Again.

When I worked ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ it was no secret that Melania hated Trump. Vanky hated Melania, Eric was an idiot & everyone hated Don Jr. It was also, no secret that Jared was in it for the access & had some nasty plans up his slender sleeves. Russian mob was all up in it.

2026 @FCPPangos Rocky Mountain Summit Notes: one of the more impressive performers here was 6-4 2028 Izzy Kabongo (Grandview/Aurora CO). Athletic down-hill driver is difficult to stop off the dribble & is a willing & active rebounder. Izzy's 17 pts (8/13 FG), 8 rebs, 6 assts & 4 steals led Team Blue to a 78-70 Win over Team White in Best of Best Game & earned him Game MVP honors

2026 @FCPPangos Rocky Mountain Summit Notes: 2029 Elias Brooks (Lincoln/Denver CO) had a HS freshman year for the ages: averaging both a state & nation leading 44.3 ppg. Crafty scoring leader guard had a high game of 24 pts here. Best of the Best Game pick (9 pts/2 assts) is also a pesky defender (had 4 steals in all-star game)
