The table crew keeps track of this, but yeah especially in tight games as refs we try to remember the TO situations… if I’m not sure I always tell players to ask the table

It bothers me when people I work with in the rural west don’t realize it’s not Minnianapolis, but I try to not get mad because it’s not relevant to them. But if you’re a public official you should probably know how to pronounce the name of one of the largest metropolitan areas in the country.

Glad she’s speaking her mind and glad it’s being published, but what the actual fuck is this sorry ass excuse for journalism.
The thing that makes things so difficult for the
WNBA is the difference in opinion. For example, if they shut the door on transgender athletes, they risk upsetting people like Cheryl, but on the flip side, if they don't ban transgender athletes, then it opens up even more issues.

If it was urgent to respond to ICE when they were murdering people on the streets in Minnesota, it is even more urgent today, when they are arresting record numbers of people. Anyone can be defined as a criminal by the flick of a pen. These brutal roundups set a precedent that threatens us all.

ICE arrests have soared to record highs over the few months, as ICE agents work with cops and courts to disappear people while avoiding public visibility. We urgently need new points of intervention to make this tragedy visible and take action. Here are some starting points: crimethinc.com/MeltICE
Unlike earlier high-profile raids that drew thousands of protesters into the streets of Chicago, Los Angeles and Minneapolis, the surge in arrests in June, July and August was captured mostly by grainy security camera footage, through cracked blinds and from behind closed doors.

Arrests by Immigration and Customs Enforcement this summer soared to record highs since the start of this Trump administration — with 43,000 in June, more than 49,000 in July and nearly 51,000 in August — as officials cut or narrowed the pathways to legal residency in the United States and expanded the pool of people eligible for deportation.

Yeah unfortunately. He was talking about “creating buy in” and kept blabbing how “Elons companies’ are so successful because employees get stock options and that creates a vested interest in group success” which is a cool myth if you don’t ever look into his companies’ workplaces. An extra slap…

“By the time the first Tomahawk missile bound for the Minab site left its launcher on a ship operating in the Arabian Sea, roughly three dozen people were involved along the kill chain, the officials said.” Every single one of those people deserves to rot in a prison for the rest of their lives.
