Crochet vs Judge: Unforgettable. A closer look at an epic subplot that was resided somewhere between sports and MCU fantasy: www.bostonglobe.com/2025/06/14/s...

I’m not as entertained by the Red Sox v Yankees rivalry as I was 20 years ago BUT seeing the best hitter in the world against a top 5 (?) pitcher in the world going for a shutout in the 9th in a 1-0 game is why you buy a ticket. Cora pulls Crochet if it’s October, I think. So we settle for June.

With 3 min 52 sec remaining, Mark Daigneault called timeout and made the adjustment that won the Thunder Game 4. Nembhard had been guarding SGA extremely well. Thunder used the same action 3x to get Nesmith to switch, Shai kept scoring/getting the foul call.

Pacers made ONE field goal in the last 5 minutes of the game, scored 1 point in the last 3 minutes. They've lost a clutch game for the second time this postseason.

Jewell Loyd for 3 and the lead!

Even after a judge ordered a halt to regime's war on foreign #Harvard students, students were being locked up at Logan for hours and ordered to leave the country, school says www.universalhub.com/2025/even-af... #lawsuits

It is and it was…

I had a mini PTSD flare up from the 2022 NBA Finals…

YIKES ON BLUEBIKES

Start the getaway car! The Thunder had absolutely NO BUSINESS winning this game and somehow left here with a win anyway. What an effort. What a game. What a series.

SERIES TIED 2-2. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in Game 4: 35 PTS, 12-24 FG (and 0 assists)

Forgot he was playing to be honest…

First time all playoffs I've seen Indiana get exhausted like this. It's gonna cost them badly tonight. They had this totally in the bag and missed I don't know how many FTs

This is a tragedy of errors…

Those were HUGEEEE free throw misses

I’m not gonna say it because you already know…

Siakam not clean-catching that for a easy putback might loom enormous. Game of millimeters.

What the hell is happening, Pacers?

Terrible quarter for the Pacers…

That's seven points in 71 seconds for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and the Thunder now lead, 104-103, with 2:21 to go. Long way to go, but a huge stretch for the MVP.

Not in love with Nembhard not getting to the line there followed by Shai apparent pushoff

Dr. Ivan Pushoffski

this is some high quality hoops. the kind you don’t want to end.

ICE is going to parks in Los Angeles and kidnapping nannies who are caring for small children The children are witnessing these kidnappings and being held in custody until their parents are contacted Women and children in parks

Nobody: Aaron Nesmith jumping for the loose ball:

Red Sox beat the Yankees again…

*ralph lawler turns the game off and goes to bed*

Way to go, Crash…

This game has the makings of an instant classic…

Voted most overrated lmao

The shoulder tackle happened before he went for the ball…

When they aren't making an unforced bad pass, the Pacers are getting a great look every trip. The ball movement is happening so quickly. The outlets are where they need to be. The second and third guys are where they need to be. Ball is ahead of the defense. Really impressive.

WHAT is going on with this broadcast

Wondered if Daigneault would change SGA's substitution pattern and take him out earlier in the first quarter so he can start the second (like he did against Denver). That appears to be what's happening.

did ABC accidentally just flash a FRIDAY THE 13TH still to the entire NBA Finals audience in the middle of a play, or did they do it intentionally

With his salary, you could resurrect ESPN THE MAGAZINE and have more than enough to revive Page 2.

“Voice of America told more than 50 employees to come back to work immediately Friday amid escalating military action between Iran and Israel. Employees told The Washington Post that most of the Persia team was restored to assist with the news out of the Middle East.” 😒

Good.

Make any of his children think for a moment he genuinely cared about any of them or may have believed any of them were capable or worthy enough to be his successor.

No, but Prince did make the joke that he was going to make us pancakes on the day when I was supposed to go to his house but couldn’t make it. Anita Baker told me about it later. (She was there and I missed her. 😭) www.anildash.com/2016/05/12/t...

25 years ago today, I bought both Quasimoto “The Unseen” which is one of Madlib’s many alter egos and Slum Village’s highly anticipated “Fantastic Vol. II”. I once had an epic interview with T3 & Young RJ of Slum Village back in March 2015: youtu.be/fbXwioeoDI4?...

Protestors aren’t the ones who need to be advised on being peaceful.

Elected democratic politicians spent actual time and energy yesterday suggesting Noem should apologize or even resign. Like these people can be shamed. Have you been sentient for the past decade? What planet do you live on? The actual response was obviously smearing the guy who got handcuffed.

Is the 90 percent white, straight, and ablebodied mainstream media an echo chamber? Some are asking.

Paige blocking the cameraman from Dijonai after that loss when she dropped a career high 35 says SO much about how selfless and how great of a teammate and person she is. I get all the attention is on Caitlin but Paige should be there soon. She has the personality for it.

Paige said it’s time for some difficult conversations. We’ll see how much longer that coach lasts.

Also, the Red Sox eliminated the Yankees from the postseason in 2004, 2018 & 2021 but the Yankees were eliminated from the postseason by the Houston Astros in 2015, 2017, 2019 & 2022 so they became a bigger rival than the Red Sox who are still trying to make another postseason...
