Co-Conspirator 8 is Chauncey Billups. If this is true, his NBA coaching career is over and there is going to be serious discussions over NBA teams tanking games.
The text of item 44 of the indictment, which says Co-Consipirator 8 told a defendant that the Portland Trail Blazers - the team Chauncey Billups coached - would be intentionally losing the game by not playing their best players.

It isn't the Detroit-Toronto matchup everyone wanted, but it is something.

The rain delay was apparently so Ford Field could take part in the orange-out.

Saturday, the xG graph showed DCFC's 4-1 win over Orange County probably had some luck behind it.

Tonight, New Mexico United's 4-0 win seems fair, even if they scored one of their goals from their own half.

The front page of the Athletic, showing 13 different stories, none of which are about the Panthers winning the Stanley Cup. The only related story is about the injuries Matthew Tkachuk played through during the playoffs.

No protests for me today. Be safe, everyone. The person behind the mask might be a police officer or, as Minnesota proves, they might be an assassin. It is hard to tell them apart.

It's a gray, drizzly night at Comerica Park, but we're dry in the press box.

Riley Greene just hit a bomb to give the #Tigers a 2-1 lead over the #Reds.

Always nice to put a 1 on the scorecard.

Can anyone help me ID this bird? It didn't seem big enough to be a Great Blue Heron, but I was looking at it from quite a distance.

Eleven seconds left and things are about to go terribly wrong.

This is an actual tweet from Lindsay Graham's official Xitter account. Can you imagine the response if someone had tweeted this about Joe Biden? He's at least Catholic!
A tweet from Senator Lindsey Graham's official account, stating: I was excited to hear that President Trump is open to the idea of being the next Pope. This would truly be a dark horse candidate, but I would ask the papal conclave and Catholic faithful to keep an open mind about this possibility! The first Pope-U.S. President combination has many upsides. Watching for white smoke…. Trump MMXXVIII!

This is a very specific ad. I was raised Catholic, but I've never seen or heard of this man.

I love spring in Michigan. It is 68 degrees and there is still ice on the pond.

I would not suggest going out on it, though.

As a reminder, while I have great seats for NBA games, we don't have access to replays. So we aren't always immediately sure what happened.
