The Red Sox are in the bottom 3rd in % of revenue spent on payroll. And they have the 4th highest revenue in the league.

No one does football like UConn.
In an AP first ever moment, a voter has successfully ranked one team twice, by ranking Connecticut at #23 and UConn at #24.

The real shame is there is no other east coast football school the ACC could add to get to even numbers and have divisions to avoid this issue

Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

If the ACC keeps Duke out of the title game because they lost to UConn they should be required by law to immediately expel BC and add UConn
This might be an unpopular take ... but if I'm the ACC and Cal upsets SMU, I override the tiebreakers and put Miami in the ACC championship game against Virginia.

Personally, I'm okay with the constant haggling over capacity. Less demolition work to be done in 2029 if it's not finished.
“.. What started as a 500-seat ballroom connected to the East Wing grew to 650 seats. Next, he wanted a 999-seat ballroom, then room for 1,350.” 🤡

Just want it to be clear to all the troops, sailors, pilots, Venezuelans who might be put in harm's way in the coming days. Trump's not sending you to war because Maduro deals drugs. He's sending you to war because Maduro didn't give him a percentage.
Trump does another Sicario bsky.app/profile/reic...
WHOA. Trump says he will pardon Juan Orlando Hernandez, who once said that he wanted to “shove the drugs right up the noses of the gringos.” He had people killed as part of his narco-trafficking ring, which he at times operated directly out of his presidential office.

Same for the bit about domestic tranquility, because there's no way he's read the Preamble past the first three words
Trump has never once in his life extemporaneously used the phrase "western civilization." He was once asked about western liberalism and thought they were talking about California Democrats. One of the more blatant tells for a Miller-written screed.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

This was handed down shortly before I took a law school class on statutory interpretation and it was how I knew for sure going in that textualism was absolute bullshit
Today - and every day - is a good day to read Justice Stevens’ dissent in Heller v DC. The bonkers 5-4 decision that not only made it legal to carry firearms in DC but also declared that the first 13 words of 2A were “merely preferatory”. www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/0...
