Something definitely seems out of sync. But they created enough good chances to win. Still second place. I don't think anyone can catch KC anyway.

While ICE agents can note in their database if someone they’ve investigated turns out to be a citizen, they are not required to do so. As a result, records are often wrong and left uncorrected even after agents have been told of a mistake. (Published March 2025)

At a WH event, Trump shared imaginary details about a conversation with Wes Moore that didn’t happen, embraced “the president of Europe” label, and falsely claimed he stopped 7 (and 10) wars. Maybe now’s a good time to renew the whole “cognitive decline” conversation? www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

And while the right wing story was constantly changing, the police report and the story from the teenagers both remained consistent. The teenagers say that big balls was harassing and trying to pick up the 15-year-old girl, and when he wouldn't leave her alone the boy jumped in to defend her.

Did she do that or was that an underling? Seems like sports commissioners generally serve to take the heat for the owners. And it also seems like it had to be the Longs who leaked the story about the threatened fine. I don't see how she holds on past the end of the season

Well, the owners hire the commissioner, primarily to take the heat for them. Presumably they can fire her any time they want

They essentially do this anyway. Somebody goes down with an injury of some sort and both teams go to the bench for drinks and strategy

Not that attendance is great league-wide generally, but I wonder how much the kickoff times matter for how many people show up. If you don't have ticket revenue I guess you have to try and get the most you can out of the TV side

The club owners need to take responsibility. Sports league commissioners basically exist to take the heat for the owners. But, I agree that she hasn't done a good job
Glenn A (@raksiam.bsky.social) reply parent
Right. And the owners are the ones who hire the commissioner. They literally are The League

The club owners need to take responsibility too. It's easy for them to make this Berman's problem, but ultimately they're the ones in charge

Scott Bessent and Howard Lutnick being on this list only make sense if backroom deal-making on sanctions and trade is central to the negotiations. The U.S. is posturing for post-war economic realignment involving Russia and energy markets. This summit is about dollars, not diplomacy.

A rambling and incoherent Trump wants to turn DC into his personal police state despite a 30-year low in crime. He's a pathetic wannabe dictator who wants to distract you from his connection to the Epstein files, skyrocketing costs, and his weak job numbers. Don't let him.
