I’m sorry but in 2026 if you’re still doing that tomohawk cheer I am rooting against your baseball team.

If your reaction to Wemby saying this is a hearty “hell yeah”, it behooves me to let you know that @theguardian.com does not take business from betting companies, we have a great sports section, no paywall, and a great app. www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/o...

They are acting like the Cornell 7 happened in a vacuum when we just went through the Hockey Canada 5 and the players have all been rehired, and play for both American and Canadian teams. There are no consequences for these kinds of men and the faux outrage is exhausting.

Just asked Victor Wembanyama if he’d ever consider promoting a sports betting company. “Absolutely not. I will never do that. Honestly, I think it's very sad to see some players promote it. .. Everybody does whatever they want, but without me.”

Was not expecting Bob Costas to open up to us about feeling like he lost a step calling baseball games, and then seeing all the abuse online from anonymous users in MAGA hats after he made it clear he loathes Trump. He said he just needed to unburden himself.

As a kid, every Cubs game was on WGN for free. I don’t think they understand they are not creating a love of baseball for kids. Only kids whose parents can afford 9000 steaming services. Too many kids being left out.

Jack Smith made it crystal clear that his investigation was sound and lawful, that the president had committed crimes and that the GOP attacks on him were the actual weaponization of our justice system. He showed courage and moral clarity and continues to be one of the heroes of this moment.

"Pivot to video" is synonymous with a desperate, trend-chasing strategy that sacrifices substantive content and leads to layoffs of talented staff to produce superficial videos to chase social media algorithms. Now it's NPR's turn. www.niemanlab.org/2026/09/npr-...

An introvert grocery trip: - Go when the store is least crowded - Hyper-focused on what they need while avoiding people they may know - Self-checkout. Always. - Somehow still get hit with “Error. Sending associate for help.”

“ICE preparing for another hiring surge to support Trump’s deportation campaign, goal of bringing on 5,000 new employees by end of year.. The hiring would expand the agency’s work force by around 17% and draw on substantial new funding provided by Congress.”

ICE Plans 5,000 New Hires to Help With Deportation Drive
A similar surge last year resulted in undervetted officers initially being let in and then removed as the agency skipped basic checks for new recruits.
