It's still weird to me to see players on max deals getting waived-and-stretched with multiple years left on their contracts. That's math in the NBA's "Apron Era", as I've taken to calling it.

god I would go hard for this. Read a daily paper every damn day since 4th grade until the quality got sucked out and the price became laughable over Covid. Miss it tremendously

Get me high school transcripts of Mamdani

GG Jackson II hits an unreal buzzer beating runner that would have sent it to OT but officials called it a two on the floor and did not change it to a 3 on review, it's so close

The Detroit Pistons signed No. 37 pick Chaz Lanier to a four-year, $8.79 million deal, league sources told @hoopshypeofficial.bsky.social. The first two years are fully guaranteed ($3.52M total). There’s a third-year trigger date and fourth-year team option. He won the Jerry West award at Tennessee.

I wrote two nerdy AF articles tonight. I feel like I need to shove myself in a locker right now.

Cris Sánchez is fired up as he strikes out Rafael Devers with his 105th pitch. Seven innings of one-run ball. His ERA is 2.59. He's been terrific.

Oh this was fun

Duncan Robinson’s $18.8 million guaranteed with the Detroit Pistons via sign-and-trade is nearly the same amount as his early termination clause with the Miami Heat. Robinson, a career 40 percent 3-point shooter, returns to Michigan after playing for the Wolverines for three seasons in college.

I can't name many movies that place you more in the moment than this one. boxd.it/afXZEz

Sources: The Detroit Pistons signed Duncan Robinson to a three-year, $48 million deal, which is fully guaranteed at $16.8 million for the 2025-26 season, partially guaranteed $2 million out of a possible $16 million in the 2026-27 season, and non-guaranteed for $15.15 million in the 2027-28 season.

From earlier tonight: Mammoth sign Jack McBain 5 x $4.25M [Response to a quoted post]

this guy is a total pud, cuckold, creep, phony and mush. He's gotta go in the dustbin

Gonna pretend that’s Bill Snyder-cat on the Jumbotron

To be clear: This is just my assumption for how MIL will do their offseason business. They are still piecing together some signings. What I've laid out seems to make the most sense, based on the combination of what we know and the reported value of deals. Everything through K. Porter Jr is official.

This is precisely what @mikeljollett.bsky.social predicted in a thread a couple of days ago. This is how they will justify arresting American citizens without due process. They will claim we are impeding their attempts to detain and remove allegedly illegal immigrants.

I really hope the Big XII Social Media team didn’t try to edit these at all as an act of rebellion. Like you want to us AI??? Sure go ahead.

Consider Arizona State

“the funding allocated through September 30, 2029, would provide a 500 percent annual increase from ICE’s current annual budget for transportation and removal operations”

Why does the dork at the bottom of the frame at the beginning have a 60-lb. backpack with a canteen? You're in MacArthur Park. There's an El Pollo Loco on 6th and Alvarado -- just pop in and get yourself a Diet Coke, you dork.

probably the single most chilling youtube comment i have ever read

Final: Guardians 7 Astros 5

I think the Bucks and Suns are both gonna regret these massive waive-and-stretch decisions (assuming the Suns do it for Beal, that is).

I don’t usually yearn for summer to yield to football season, it’s a delightful time but I enjoy seeing my family etc but one of you dorks put me in the starter pack from hell and I cannot wait to clean house with an unscalable wall of Arizona State memes

Delaware's roster after year one in dynasty

Update: The New Orleans Pelicans have a second-year team option included in the two-year, $16 million deal with Kevon Looney, league sources told @hoopshypeofficial.bsky.social. Looney left the Golden State Warriors in free agency after winning three championships in 10 seasons with the franchise.

The Toronto Blue Jays win their 9th in a row, their longest streak in 10 years, and now with a 3 1/2 game lead in the AL East

sami whitcomb my goodness

Vasilije Micic gave up $6.1M in his buyout with the Milwaukee Bucks, a league source told @spotrac.com. That allowed the Bucks to stretch Micic's cap hit, along with the stretch for Damian Lillard's cap hit and to stay right at the 15% of the cap allowable in stretched salary.

You could be the first to buy Sickos Athletic Shoes. Why did I make these? Simple, it was an option in the store. Who wouldn't want a pair of beveled shoes?? 15% off with the Code SAFETY along with all other items in the store through tomorrow! thesickoscommittee-shop.fourthwall.com/products/sic...

so he did his part to pass the fucked up bill and immediately skipped town. cool

Sami Whitcomb has lost her mind.

i don't remember mine but they were something like that and i got into columbia...i am not in any marginalized community

The mascots for TV Osaka are Takoru-kun, whose head is a takoyaki (fried octopus ball), and his travelling companion, Takobee, an octopus.

Final: Dodgers 1 Brewers 9

won second place in a little league home run derby when i was 9 years old

The future of Bulls basketball has never been younger. Got a first glimpse from summer league practices at how Matas Buzelis and Noa Essengue are laying a foundation for a new partnership on the court.

this is not the first time i have ever achieved some level of internet notoriety in a niche community

The most ridiculous non-highlights getting clipped and presented from Summer League as a noteworthy play is unbelievable

The Dallas Wings have 17 points right now and Sami Whitcomb has 16 points.

The Phoenix Mercury are expected to sign free-agent DeWanna Bonner, a league source confirmed to @benpickman.bsky.social. Bonner, a six-time All-Star, signed with the Indiana Fever this past offseason, but the team waived her after she requested to “move on.” 🔗 www.nytimes.com/athletic/647...

Taylor Rapp (9) with a nice fit & finish from depth vs the run Also, a nice job by Christian Benford (47) squeezing down as the force player & cutting off the outside

Taron Johnson (7) blowing up Duo by shooting the C gap & beating the insert block from the WR (88)

Jazz fans can't punch that high up, man

This completion didn’t count because of offsetting penalties, but this is a gorgeous ball from Matthew Stafford

Sitting courtside at the Jazz game, with the other Jazz coaches, execs, players etc, is Oscar Tshiebwe, wearing the largest cowboy hat.

THE REDS DEFENSE ON THIS PLAY MY GOODNESS

Christian Benford (47) to the top of the screen with a PBU vs a deep out -gets into his bail & doesn’t let the WR get into his blind spot -reads the route through to the QB -plants his upfield foot while opening his hips -drives on the route & knocks the ball down

I love that they’re doing this dumb Nobel peace prize shit the same day Trump sent armed troops to scare some kids at a Los Angeles park.

Children were attending summer camp.

The Valkyries just compete and as the game wears on it gets tougher to shake them. Comfortable grinding in the half court. Always showing help and working to adjust on defense. Tough when they get you in the mud.

Chris Rufo eats his own doodie, it's verified

not the point, but remembering your SAT score as an adult is loser shit

I’m not an Apatow guy at all so I’m going to assume someone else like Rogen came up with it, but telling the heavily bearded Martin Starr “Your face looks like Cat Stevens’ knuckle” will never not be funny.

I honestly think this SAT story is disqualifying for Zohran. I do not know if I could vote for someone young enough to have taken the 2400-totaled SAT.

[forced to watch every Dodgers game because I’m in Japan]: These are bad people, these are not good human beings. And they’re not even winning.

these losers are larping with your tax dollars--and worst of all, they're shitty larpers

Clark Hunt’s 9-year-old relative dies in the Texas floods. www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootb...

Wearing desert camo and 110 pounds of tac gear, covering my face and putting on bulletproof nightvision goggles, grabbing my RPG launcher and strapping eight knives to my legs so I can walk across a well-manicured soccer field and scare some kids, and then I guess I'll get an Uber home?

It’s absolutely ridiculous as an adult to care about someone’s else’s SAT scores. It’s a completely meaningless metric. They haven’t even been a qualifying standard for Mensa membership since January 1994.
