Final: Pistons 148 Hawks 143

A gritty performance gives us our second win in two days in Iowa! #DCTID

Germany has rejected the racist, far-right, AfD and Elon while confirming JD Vance's unfitness. After embarrassing the US with his Munich speech, he refused to meet with anyone but AfD’s Alice Weidel because he was so sure of their victory. What a pathetic and disrespectful miscalculation.

An increasing geology article about lava flows in the Great Lakes Basin. I’ve seen portions of this on the Canadian side of the lake west of the Soo. www.woodtv.com/news/michiga...

Today’s Black History Month spotlight is on the first man to sign a contract that led to the re-integration of the NFL: Kenny Washington. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenny_W...

Kayla was a cheat code tonight.

Forty-five years ago today: The Miracle on Ice game between the United States and Soviet Union at the Winter Olympics in Lake Placid. Feb, 22, 1980.

Largest margin of victory over Western ever. A chef’s kiss for it occurring in their barn.

He nails it.

Today’s Black History Month spotlight is on the first African-American to play in the NBA: Earl Lloyd. Lloyd also broke the color barrier for assistant coaches when he became part of the Pistons staff. wvstateu.edu/about/histor...

Huge victory for Michigan State. This B1G title race may go to the last match day. Explaining how MSU loses to IU, UCLA, and USC and then beats Illinois, Purdue and wins in Ann Arbor is beyond my analysis skills.

It appears USL to Boise is a go as the stadium development now has the green light. The club reiterates its plan to begin play in 2026. Should start with a USL League One team followed by USL Super League. www.boiseprosoccer.com/news/2025/02...

#USL President Paul McDonough joined @jimmyconrad.bsky.social and Charlie Davies on @golazoamerica.bsky.social this morning to talk Division One. Yes, pro-rel talk is in there, but much more as well. Why now, discussions with owners, and how it can benefit U.S. Soccer. youtu.be/2awS9TYWLO4?...

Shoutout to our Polar Plunge team who kicked ass by being the top community (non corporate) fundraiser and also had the 3rd place individual fundraiser (yay Jam). We raised over $3800 and nobody died. Thanks to all who helped us make it happen!

Awful that Indiana Republicans are more than willing to provide tax cuts for the wealthy but not fun literacy for its citizens. I once had my son in Michigan signed up for these books and it was an amazing program. www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

An early leader for the All-Name XI. Bonus points if he is literally a ball “hawk” on the pitch.

I can’t use enough profanity in my response to this post. Wtf is wrong with her, Trumpie, and the MAGA folks that support this shit? Instead of hiding the truth, we need to better teach about the atrocities committed by the State and the Church.

On this Day of Remembrance, we honor the 120,000 Japanese Americans unjustly imprisoned during WWII because of their heritage. Their resilience remind us to never forget the lessons of history. We will continue to fight for justice, equality, and civil rights for all.
