Watching the 3rd place game today felt like watching the NBA all start game. No defense, unlimited scoring and the best player in the world just going crazy and although fun, there just isn't a good reason to have this game as it makes a mockery of the game and skews the stats for the tournament but you can also just get off my lawn

I was anti iceberg lettuce before it was a thing. Mostly because it's got zero nutritional value and tastes like sponge water but more recently try because I won't want to be sitting on the can blowing liquid from my five hole.

It's time for Trump to slap some big tariffs onto Canada for all of this wildfire smoke. I walked out of my office and felt like I walked into the back of the plane in 1985. My eyes burned, my throat burned and my nose burned, although maybe this is a good training session in anticipation of my trip to aching

House democrats are finally starting to sound humane after finally starting to push back on Israel. Say what you will, there is no justification to what Israel has done to the Palestinians over the last fe years even if you start only on October 7th. This isn't just Gaza, this is the West Bank and the forgotten Golan Heights. This isn't political, this isn't national and this isn't about security, this is genocidal atrocities committed by a state that we fund.

I am at the point where I don't think anything in politics matters. When Kindsey Graham died, he wasn't replaced by the most capable person but instead by his sister who we assume is likely just as awful as him. She has no qualifications, no political experience and will now stand for seat she didn't run for and the people of South Carolina didn't ask her to take. It's due time that we call a snap election when one of these dinosaurs croaks.

We're at that part of the story when discussing an ICE killing of an unarmed person in broad daylight, it's not unreasonable for somebody to ask "which one are you talking about?" We have become a country which shoots its own citizens for protesting for human rights. We are a country which worships a depraved human as its leader and we are a country where corruption is so rampant that it's just a shrug moment. If we lived anywhere else with that murders row of awfulness, you'd want to get the heck out of dodge.

Lindsey Graham dropping dead wasn't on my bingo card although I will say that I thought he was way older than 71. I'm also sure that he's was poisoned by Putin while in Ukraine a day ago and this isn't some normal old guy dropping dead thing. Graham was an awful human and spent his life being the lapdog of one politician after another and didn't nothing for average Americans. And the proof of life thing for Mitch McConnell is obviously AI generated

Just a few short months ago, vessels could travel through around the gulf without much to worry about and financial markets spent very little time worrying about it. Then we decided to go to war with Iran and now we have to send boats through escorted by half the US Navy. This is what you get when you leave your foreign diplomacy to people who have no desire for stability but instead love a comparing the sizes of their penises.

The fact that the entire Washington establishment isn't pushing for some sign of life from the turtle is biting irresponsible. We know the chances of him being either brain dead or dead dead are frowning by the day and the fact his wife is in China while he's in the hospital is beyond sketchy. All of the bull of random people claiming to have spoken with him has now implicated all of them for blatant lying to the American public as we are completely convinced they are just walking with a stuffed animal.

Graham Platner seemed to be just what the doctor ordered when he first hit the scene but the Nazi tattoos, the physical altercations and the sexting made democrats uncomfortable as they can't get off their moral high horse in order to win elections. But the seemingly credible rape allegations was something that Platner wasn't going to get past and now we are going to be stuck with another 6 years of dinosaur MAGA shill Susan Collins.

The chances of Mitch McConnell's elevator going to the top floor is virtually none. We've seen this guy disintegrate before our eyes with his ever more frequent brain freezes and falls. I'd usually feel bad for some old guy going through dementia but Mitch is a horrid human whose collective memory is already being whitewashed of his politics. There is nobody in this country more at fault for the place we are today than this turtle neck twerp and the fact his wife jetted for China tells you all you need to know where her real loyalties lie

At the end of the day the fact that Balogun played made no difference. The US team came in on their back foot and after back to back goals conceded, never really got back in the game. But this game will be remembered for its lack of offensive creativity, lack of tactical possession by the midfield and judged for a defense that only Whiskey Pete Hegseth could be proud of. Oh yeah, it will also be remembered for the butt fumble level play by our keeper. I've watched almost every knockout game of this World Cup and a lot of the early games too and there was no more lackluster performance than what the USMNT put out there today. Utterly embarrassing

The USMNT is now in a no win situation. If they beat Belgium, everybody will claim they got special treatment after Trump intervened. If they lose, it's just another bitter ending. The red card was bull but having our president strong arm FIFA into a decision no other country would have been given an out on, makes you realize how corrupt this entire body is and Trump played right into it.

Trump rebranded NAFTA and told us it was now great and a few years later he quietly dumps that. For a president who can never admit he did anything wrong, he certainly is forced to make a lot of concessions on stuff he once said was great. He told us that Iran's nuclear capabilities were complete obliterated to only come back six months saying he had to go to war to stop them from pursuing their nuclear ambitions. This is Trump though, he preys on the low information voters and blitzes the rest with so much crap that everybody throws their hands up and counts down the days till the end

When our President personally makes a billion dollars while in office over a nascent industry which he regulates which a shadowy underworld runs, I think we need to pay attention. We made Jimmy Carter give up a peanut farm, but now have decided that we are ok with every conflict of interest because it doesn't feel like it's worth the fight. When you go to other countries and hear about corruption, most citizens shrug their shoulders because they feel powerless to stop it but we were always told we had a stronger voice...turns out it was a whisper.

Poor Chuck Schumer and his ilk, they are all getting nervous because Mamdani and AOC are starting to look more and more like the direction the party is going into and that means he might be out of a job. Nothing annoys me more than the Democractic establishment which has proven they can't elect anybody other than a 75 year old Joe Biden. Everybody else they try to give us, is an utter disaster.

I don't quite get the need for Stephen A or Becky Hammon to apologize for their crappy Knick takes. We know that these people are all blowhards but they are paid to give Hot Takes which is mostly just some lame bull.

The idea that Becky Hammon apologizes does nothing, it's so much better for her to have to eat crow.

I'm still on an NBA high after this Knick playoff run and as always the sport continues right into the offseason. I don't know enough about what a player contract value is but to offer Trae Young $212,000,000 seems ludicrous. The guy hardly played last year, his best year was four years ago against the Knicks and he's got an awful haircut. I'm not seeing it.

The quick replays have been a major improvement, the no covering your mouth so you don't spew racist crap is excessive even if it's needed, the hydration break are a total money grab but all in all the World Cup has been better. But I'm not into this third tier thing, the knockout rounds are already a gauntlet but to add another one to it seems like even more of a financial decision than a football one. Go back to 32 and be done with it.

I can't stand all the sports betting apps even though I partake from time to time with some small money bets. Mostly I bet what I can afford to lose and even then do it only a few times per year. But the more I look at the market, the more it feels like another DraftKings opportunity. The market swings 700 points like it's nothing with the rides up coming as frequently as the declines. Just this week it was down 700 one day and uo 700 the next. It's all a big game

The only thing that can unite New Yorkers more than the Knicks play during this run is their disdain for celebrities sitting on the floor at the Garden. Taylor Swift got a lot of crap for being a fair weather fan after she was see at the Cavs series with Kelce who was rooting for his hometown team. The thing is that because tickets are so expensive, everybody wants to complain that it's a haves vs have nots but what they don't relate is that a top event is never actually affordable in the last three decades.

This Knicks postseason has been incredible and the drought they've gone through has made the city explode with the dream of a return to glory. But prices to get to The Garden is all anybody talks about...and for good reason. The crazy thing is that people complain about the Super Bowl or the World Series being full of corporate suits which is why those events don't feel authentic and are not nearly as loud as they could be. But somehow those $10,000 nosebleed seats which almost no New Yorker can afford don't seem to bring the same fear of rich out of touch helicopter fans coming in and muffling the crowd
