The NBA’s problem with drafting older college players is something of a double edged sword. Yes it is a risk considering older draftees are expected to contribute immediately and many fail to do so, but letting Dalton Knecht fall to 17 was a big misstep.

Thought it was about time to get a piece written for my Medium Blog.

A fun little opinion piece, so if insights on who could possibly score 80 on the NBA is up your street… check it out.

Sad to see former deputy prime minister (and more importantly) former Hull MP John Prescott has passes away. Served Hull well and had integrity and spirit. Something politics had come to lack in abundance recently. #hull#politics#UK

Interesting numbers tbf. Expected growth post US election but if 20m by Monday night is hit its great news for this app. My biggest complaint by far is that there aren't enough users on here yet.
BlueSky hit 18 million last night & will reach 18.5m in a couple of hours

On course for 20m by Monday night.

UK users likely to go through one million by Monday (if 5% of global users) if not there already

UK 100k users at start Nov. UK users prob at least +50k/day (or more) of global +1m/day

It is a mandate though isn't it? When will liberals learn that the denying of what's infront of them cost them this election and will cost them many more. People don't want what you have to offer. Staying down the middle and then veering to the right when you're unpopular doesn't work, we've seen it
New @CookPolitical: over 153M votes now counted, Trump's popular vote lead down to 1.7%. www.cookpolitical.com/v…
