I am a medium-name sportswriter at best, but allow me to add mine:
1. Pickles are disgusting
2. Pineapples on pizza are delicious
3. Coffee tastes like charcoal dipped in bathwater

We need to do everything we can to encourage posts like this on bluesky. Terrible food opinions from big name sportswriters are genuinely the lifeblood of any social media app

Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death
The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.

Nah this is Chet smh already two toe on the line 3s. And from basically the same spot!
Apparently, he is only able to hit walk in toe on the line long twos.
If Amen Thompson is able to hit walk in threes, that’s a pretty sizable boost to Houston’s viability both with this lineup but also overall.

No mention at all of the fact that Trump doesn't have the legal authority to do this, that plans haven't even been reviewed (because the office is closed for the government shutdown), that the size and cost estimates keep changing, etc., etc.
