FROM SHAMS: 2025 Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame: Carmelo Anthony, Dwight Howard, Sue Bird, Maya Moore, Sylvia Fowles, Danny Crawford, 2008 U.S. Olympic men's team, Billy Donovan, Micky Arison.

Congratulations to Carmelo Anthony on HOF induction.

NBA LEGEND & 2025 Hall Of Famer: Carmelo Anthony! 🔥 Right where he belongs, with the greats!

The last day on which a majority of the Supreme Court’s justices had been appointed by Democratic presidents was May 14, 1969. One of the things we do in the legal academy is support our claims with facts.

Cornell scores a PPG with 10 seconds left to knock off 1 seed Michigan State, and keep the magical run alive in Mike Schafer's last season as coach. Schafer now 11-4 in 1st Rd. games, and 3-1 vs. 1 seeds in the 1st Rd. Cornell will face BU Saturday for Frozen Four bid.

Bill Maher: “A cult is really a cult when the leader asks you to turn on friends and family…Which brings me to America, suddenly saying to our closest friend in the world, you know what? ‘Fu*k Canada,’ for no particular reason…”

The National Park Service can now rehire 1,000 employees who were terminated, following court rulings that found Trump’s firings to be illegal. And The Resistance Rangers—park staff working to save public lands—held protests at national parks all across America this weekend, thousands joined in.

If a 78-year-old George W. Bush appointee can school DOJ and DOD on anti-trans discrimination, maybe we should expand our definition of what’s possible — and then act on it.

This.

Let this sink in—the head of the EPA has now labeled climate science as “religion”, and reframed the purpose of the EPA to “lower the cost of buying a car… and running a business”—the ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY! That’s where we are now. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/c...

Today I'm updating my Top 50 players big board and there will be massive changes since the last update (early February). Can't wait for you guys to see this next week.

In case you're new here: 1. Welcome! 2. Here's my NFL Draft Starter Pack so you can hit the ground running with a great list of folks to follow go.bsky.app/AMhGEPv

The Measles vaccine is completely safe and two doses are 99 percent effective

Doug Ford: "We will never become the 51st state. Canada is not for sale ... he's taking more money out of Americans' pockets, and for what reason? We're still trying to figure this out."

"The question is simple: Who is betraying the United States Constitution: Mark Kelly or Elon Musk?" www.thebulwark.com/p/maybe-slee...

On Musk accusing Sen. Kelly of treason: "Schumer needs to make an issue of it on the floor of the Senate, and Jeffries in the House. They need to challenge their Republican colleagues to denounce Musk. This is a most serious charge. It can’t be left to stand." www.thebulwark.com/p/maybe-slee...

There are Wisconsin billionaires who routinely drop big money into Wisconsin races. But Musk is signaling he will spend huge amounts anywhere in the country to buy the democracy he wants.

the Steelers thought they'd get a Tomlin discount and NOPE. This is now bridge QB money and the Jets need one

🚨 🚨 🚨 The Jets are signing QB Justin Fields, per me and @tompelissero.bsky.social, as Gang Green gets a new starter. Fields says goodbye to Pittsburgh after 1 year. He gets a 2-year deal worth $40M with $30M guaranteed.

Patriots sign veteran tackle Morgan Moses. $28.5 mil is max value over three seasons. One of the toughest dudes around, missing just 2 games this year with an MCL sprain & bone bruise in his knee, along with meniscus damage and a small fracture. That's taking dudes out for a month or more. Not Moses

Dan Moore getting more than Ronnie Stanley shows the power of actually hitting the open market. If you can get a guy signed before the deadline, do it. Retaining your own players is cheaper than shopping for new ones.

I have heard that there’s increasing optimism that the #Jets will land Justin Fields — but still work to be done, and always the shot a surprise team swoops in or Pittsburgh changes course. But right now, especially as Steelers mull over Aaron Rodgers, Jets have a good shot.

Other NFL teams raiding the Jets underperforming DL from 2024.

The Buccaneers and edge rusher Haason Reddick agreed to terms on a one-year deal worth $14 million and $12 million guaranteed. More from @jeffphowe.bsky.social ⤵️ www.nytimes.com/athletic/617...

Javon Kinlaw getting $45M is legitimately blowing my mind.

GUESS WE’RE ON BLUESKY NOW, THANKS ELON

Rodgers’ reaction the first time George Pickens runs the wrong route or whatever will feed families

The Jaguars are signing Jourdan Lewis, Per The Insiders and Peter Schrager. He becomes the NFL’s highest-paid nickel CB.

Maybe twitter going to shit on NFL Christmas is the catalyst we need to finally give this place an edge in the live reaction department

This X mess on the start of free agency might make me jump ship permanently

Not only would the Buccaneers lose a good player, if they don't get a deal done before the official start of free agency an $18M dead money hit for the void year hits the cap for 2025

Twitter being down right as the free agency negotiating window is about to open is kinda hilarious.

The legal tampering window opens in about 15 minutes. One NFL executive said to me earlier to expect free agency to last "all of 13 seconds." Buckle in.
