It's nice to see Elmarko show some of the potential we saw in his freshman year. I hope he keeps it up.

If a certain guy wants to take the court next week, we could extend our run of perfection vs. the Huskies.

I've always liked Jamari, but damn, he's kicking ass and taking names.

Replacing Hunter Dickinson with people who actually fight for the W is quite refreshing.

1) Why is this his priority, when we have an ATC shortage, and a fatal crash this year,
2) When Michelle Obama promoted healthy food, they called her a communist,
3) Being on a plane for 5 hours sucks. Give me my damn salty pretzels and buttery cookies.
Sean Duffy, the U.S. transportation secretary, has been urging people for the past week to dress and comport themselves better as a way of restoring “civility” to air travel. On Tuesday, he added another item to his list of concerns: the quality of the snacks handed out on commercial flights.

Sean Duffy, who has been promoting greater decorum among air travelers, said he would like to see choices besides salty pretzels and buttery cookies.

A roundtrip LAX-JFK flight in the late 60s was around $3K in today’s dollars. The people who wore suits on those flights were the people who regularly wore suits. Complaining about informally-dressed fliers is complaining that the wrong sorts of people are flying today.

Does he have to be a dick about everything? Sheesh.
The White House pardons of last year’s turkeys, Peach and Blossom, declared "null and void” because then-President Biden used an autopen, says President Trump (adding the two birds were then sent on their way to “processing” but he’s now issued a valid pardon for them).

I dunno, KU's got a few teams that would give them a run for their money.
This afternoon (??), 0-11 UMass can either win as a 14-point home underdog against a 3-8 team ... or complete its case to be considered one of the very worst FBS-level teams ever

There's also coach stuff in here but obv I'm far more interested in whether UMass is worse than 1951 New Mexico State
CFB coaching carousel resuming soon, plus UMass’ incredibly bad 2025
Until Saturday is The Athletic's free college football newsletter.

How does Alan Dershowitz reflect where the vast majority of Americans are? I've never been banned from the Martha's Vineyard (or any) farmers' market.

Official DOT website lectures us to say "please" and "thank you" to our flight attendant.

Why don't we all have a smoke during the safety demonstration, which is another thing people did during the "golden age" of flying.
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

Too bad they aren't an equal branch of government meant to act as a check on the power of other branches.
Jake Sherman says more Republicans will retire like Marge because the “arrogant” White House treats Congress like garbage and @SpeakerJohnson has let it happen and Dems are going to take the house and “potted plant” Congress is just a rubber stamp for Trump anyway

So we're going to play this entire Vegas thing without Peterson. Fabulous.

Is that a rosary? What does a rosary have to do with science?
Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

Didn't watch it, but K-State's loss sounds very KU-esque.

I wonder how Goff and Booth feel about investing so much $$$ into a program, and this being the return. Brutal.

This is lunacy. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is, at best, an environmental lawyer. He has no experience or degree in medicine or science.

This is tantamount to me, an English major, giving NASA a Post-It outlining how they should revise their entire approach to the astrophysics of dark energy.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

This year’s team is chronically unprepared and undisciplined. I don’t know what’s going wrong with the coaching, but it makes the outcomes even uglier.

Damn. This is heartbreaking. Adds another level of cruelty to 47’s destruction of her grandparents’ legacies.
