OK, some good signings over the past couple days.

So many countries want a deal 'badly', yet Trump can't get a deal. I don't know if he knows what a self-own these kinds of comments are.

Narrator: they won't. Instead they will write about how he almost destroyed it.

He must be referring to the famous NBC Paywall.

So critical that we hear about this from the [check notes] Secretary of Transportation.

I don't usually have 'great defense' on my list of why the #orioles win games. But tonight....Yes!

Oh my goodness, as soon as the speech was over Sean Hannity went to breaking news in the Middle East . Even he's trying to run away from it.

Voter files can be downloaded by anyone right now. They are public information. The idea that it's newsworthy that the Chinese got their hands on some is pretty hilarious.

My hot take is that Lindsey Graham did many contemptible things but if you’re furious that his Senate Democratic colleagues are posting nice things about him today you need to put down your phone, get some fresh air, and remember a time when a colleague you disliked departed this mortal coil.

I've been out all day and not checking news. Tottenham have deals for Tonali AND Fernandes? Wow! Vuskovic sale as well. A good business deal, but we'll see if it turns out to be a good long term football deal (I fear no!) #COYS #Tottenham

I'm trying to understand how we have a global #8 vs #7 in the round of 32? Seems odd. #WorldCup

@morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social hitting the break with 'Money for Nothing' right after Joe's comment about the Iran deal is just good producing! :)

De Zerbi must be the reason Tonali would consider Tottenham over Arsenal or Man City. Can't think of another reason. Spurs clearly more desperate so they will likely pay more if they really want him. We'll see. #Tottenham #COYS

You know what I like? Right-handed hitters hitting home runs to right-center and left-handed hitters hitting home runs to left-center. Especially when they're back to back. #Orioles

OK, I've a few hours of relief. Now let me say what an embarassing sham the leadership of @tottenhamhotspur.com are. Two straight years of flirting with relegation? Not acceptable. Players have to take responsibility as well -- and some of them have big names. Changes coming. On to 26-27! #COYS

Bingo! I've been saying this for years. This is the party of Donald Trump.

Time and time again, Trump proves to be a friend to our biggest geo-political rivals when it comes to their territorial expansion. First Russia, now China.

I assume Basallo will need to spell out "Orioles W" in sunflower seeds every game now until they lose? @oriolesreview.bsky.social @orioles.com @afkostka.bsky.social

I rooted hard for #ArsenalFC today. Jumped out of my seat when they scored. Breathed a massive sigh of relief after the #VAR ruling. It was an utterly grotesque, but necessary 2 hours of my life. #tottenham #COYS @tottenhamhotspur.com @arsenalfc.bsky.social @alasdairgold.bsky.social

Every sport has it's flaws. But soccer (football) has a really big one: it is impossible to really know what is a foul and what is not; what is a yellow and what is not -- especially in the penalty box, where the consequences of a foul are massive.

To be honest, I may be happier about the Bassitt start than the Rutschman GS.

Why do the #Penguins insist on those yellow jersies? They look like the Nashville Predators.
