At least he's not telling them to consume garcinia cambogia...?

Jokes aside, this guy made his career on peddling bad health advice -- This just seems like an escalation of past behaviors?
NEW: Dr. Oz is quite literally telling his federal employees to eat less.

“You don't have to try every cookie on the holiday table,” wrote Mehmet Oz in an email to all Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services employees.

The "spirit of the league" should be to pay players what they are worth, keep enough stars to get butts in seats and attract new fans, and grow the game.

Just increase the salary cap again already, before people demand that it gets abolished entirely. We're losing so many players to other leagues.

Tonight's attendance at @climatepledgearena.com for the @pwhltorrent.bsky.social vs @pwhlsirens.bsky.social game is 8,622!

Lower bowl mostly filled, and the energy is really solid. Just need to give these home fans a goal to cheer for.

Tell me you should not be trusted with bringing dessert without telling me that you should not be trusted to bring dessert
Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.

I really love when clubs do community engagement like this during the #NWSL Championship. Think every club should be doing something like this in their local markets even if their team isn’t in the final.
Get Ready 💪
We’re bringing big-game energy with The Sports Bra Boston and TOGETHXR for the 2025 NWSL Championship.

A friendly reminder that it's okay to be creative on Thanksgiving. You can do your own thing, because we hardly follow what was eaten at the first Thanksgiving anyway.

Also: this meal sounds amazing

What Was *Actually* Served at the First Thanksgiving
Not on the menu: sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie, or mashed potatoes.

For $7000, you could buy season tickets for you and over a dozen of your closest friends to any NWSL club’s supporters section.
Another price increase for the 2026 World Cup…

Sensing strong demand, FIFA raised the cost of many tickets to record-setting heights — the first large-scale implementation of its “variable pricing” strategy.

This race had a "Dewey defeats Truman" moment when Election Desk HQ prematurely called the race for Mayor Bruce Harrell. One Reddit user made a parody.

That proved incorrect as Wilson closed an eight-point gap from earlier results.

If you haven't already, check the status of your ballot if you voted in this election, because the current margin of victory is 91 votes as of the most recent update.
The number of curable ballots from Seattle has edged downward a little since midday yesterday. There's now just over 1,700 curable ballots, which still skew younger.

The ref cam is a cool idea, but in practice it's giving me motion sickness every time they show it on the broadcast

I've been trying out code assist tools, and while they are very cool, they are still at the stage where you need to double check their ideas and not take them as gospel.

But the AI agents are very polite when you call them out.

Where's the headline that says: Dan Wilson managed the best Mariners team in history that was also very likable and fun to watch

Welp. That one’s gonna hurt for a while.

Love love love this team, though. Bring back Naylor and let’s run this shit back.

Some thoughts:
- That was a bummer.
- I haven't had this much fun watching the Mariners, maybe ever.
- Can we please manifest the people's world series? Mariners/Brewers next year please
