I'm pretty sure I've covered more Bulls-Pistons games than any other matchup outside MLB.
The first one was in 1990 - the Bad Boys against Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. I was 20.

Mark Kelly isn't in the Epstein-Trump files. Neither are Nicolás Maduro, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, Miguel Díaz-Canel, nor Gustavo Petro.

I am aware that a post I made 12 days ago about the Lions has broken Bluesky. For some reason, it is being shown over and over.
I'm as annoyed as anyone about this, because none of my other posts are getting any traction.

January 1 is the day to check the city record for losses in a calendar year. No one came close to Chicago's record of 237, set in 2024, which beat Detroit's 228 in 2021.
However, Chicago's .315 winning percentage fell short of Detroit's .312 in 2020.

If I ever got a massive windfall, I would throw a huge New Year's Eve party somewhere warm with a private beach. That just sounds like the perfect way to celebrate.

Jacob Bernard-Docker isn't on the Canadian Olympic hockey team, but he could represent his country in the one-skate speed skating event.
I've never seen a player get off the ice that quickly after losing a skate blade. He had obviously worked on that technique.

And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, and next appears in the narrative as a Valkyrie, having joined the host of Odin’s chosen-daughters via some process obscured by a lacuna in the manuscript.
And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, eventually found him seated on the Golden Throne of Holy Terra. There, his body writhes, sustained by eldritch technologies and the lives of the thousand souls fed to him every day, so that he may never truly die.
And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, eventually became a Queen! Not dark but beautiful and terrible as the Dawn! Treacherous as the Seas! Stronger than the foundations of the Earth!

The panic is getting real in the White House. He's just describing his own behavior and then begging his base to believe that he actually *is* wearing clothes.
