The league has to get rid of this Dundon guy. He bought the Blazers to hold the city of Portland hostage for arena money and now he's telling all of his underlings to shittalk the city so he can move to Kansas City or something. Cut this shit out or the league will be held hostage by similar ghouls.

The three players in this photo: 1. Nigerian heritage, grew up in England, and is only a citizen thanks to birthright citizenship. 2. Born + raised in Holland, has a dad who immigrated to the US from Suriname. 3. Said he wanted to “make people who look like me proud” while playing on Juneteenth

Sonny Rollins makes me so unbelievably happy. 95 years of a beautiful, unflinchingly creative life. Sad to see him leave this form of existence but so grateful that I get to live the rest of my life with what he left us.

If you’re wanting to hear Sonny Rollins tonight but don’t know where to start, a quick Top 10: Saxophone Colossus - Often cited as his best, has "St. Thomas," as well as "Mack the Knife," the SOUND is just so good, his solos are super imaginative, excellently recorded

No other player had a bigger impact on me, as a musician and as an artist. I am so grateful to him. RIP Sonny Rollins, the colossus.

I’m back on television! This time with James Corden and Rio Ferdinand getting really dumb about the World Cup. Time to learn what soccer is - I believe it’s a trendy Swedish gummy?
An image for a World Cup after show where Ian Karmel kinda looks like Stalin.

I genuinely think the score is the same if Wemby is still in the game. We can’t shoot with or without him.

In honor of Michael B. Jordan’s Oscar win, here’s a meme that has been stuck in my head since like 2020.
Screenshot of Michael Jordan from ‘The Last Dance’ with text overlaid to make it look like he’s saying:

“How is it legal for a guy to be named Michael B. Jordan? That's just my name but with a B. I call 911 everyday about this.”

This will only make sense to Oregonians, but Culver City is like if they made The Pearl District out of Lake Oswegos. The entire thing is $3 million houses and gyms that carry Kiehls products.
