If your best player is small, you're not winning,

[It... It's] sweet,

I stand by it. There's no air to be cleared. I said what I said. If he proves me wrong, he proves me wrong. Good for him. But I do think the two best teams are in the West. You know who I'm cheering for."

Patriots Fans Celebrate Reported AJ Brown Trade Cost

Ain't no way they just getting that for him. I need to see something in 2027 too,
Jason La CanforanFL insider
Multiple NFL executives said over the weekend that they believe the Eagles will trade star receiver AJ Brown to New England this week, with one general manager saying the Eagles will land a 2028 first-round pick for him,
I don’t think 2028 is a good deal for the Eagles. Obviously I’ll take a first. But everyone needs to act like AJ is washed. He’s got his flaws but he’s still great,
If true, NE took Howie lunch again. No way it should be a 2028 pick. Freakin joke he’s a top 10 WR,
Holy [expletive] Howie got fleeced😭😭😭 Everyone knows a pick the next year is valued one round less so essentially Patriots got AJ for a second👀,
That’s not that great of a deal. 2028 picks are devalued by a round and the Eagles are eating a ton of his money in the deal. He’s an all pro WR. I’d want close to the Tyreke deal to say it’s a ‘helluva deal,

Paul McCartney Opens Up About Still Missing John Lennon and George Harrison

The terrible thing about it is all your mates start popping off,
My collaborator was probably one of the best writers of the century, so, yeah, you're going to miss him,
Now I'm probably at that age, and I'm very conscious of that, having lost John and George — two big touchstones for anything we're talking about [in this interview],

Knicks Mike Brown Delivers Powerful Message About Gregg Popovich's Impact

Mike Brown (basketball, born 1970)head coach
The job that he's done, not only on the court with that team or that organization, but off the court, too, is going to be imprinted as long as the game of basketball exists,
His presence is very, very much felt all the time. I've got a lot of respect for the organizationhttps for a lot of different reasons,

Thunder's Chet Holmgren Reflects on WCF Struggles Against Spurs

49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk Called 'Untradeable' as June 1 Deadline Looms

Brandon Aiyuk's future is squarely in limbo right now,
It's going to be hard to move on because of the knee issue. Didn't play all last year. He's kind of ghosted the 49ers at times. They haven't really had a lot of communication with him. And then you got the contract. If he is released at some point this summer, the 49ers have a clear run rate that can save about $20 million on the cap,

Knicks' Deuce McBride Shows Respect for Spurs Before NBA Finals Matchup

Miles McBrideamerican basketball player
First off, all glory to God. They're a special team. Obviously, they have the defensive player of the year, obviously a great organization and they've got a lot of great young guys. We're just excited for this matchup,
Stephon Castleamerican basketball player
They're relentless. They're young, they have that mentality of just go out there and scrap and make it a tough game. I love that,

Heated Sideline Altercation Between Caitlin Clark, Stephanie White Goes Viral

CC doesn't need this crap. She's got sizable endorsement deals and should just grab a hamstring, limp off the court, and enjoy watching her ‘team’ lose for a month. When ticket sales crater maybe things will change. The coach needs to have the best 5 on the court 90% of the time,
Stephanie White is clueless. She is destroying what could be a great team. She needs to go,
Stephanie White has too big of an ego to admit what she's doing doesn't work. Is an ego thing for her. Instead of building around the player's strengths, she tries to change them to prove her system works. She's a terrible coach she just puts on a bold face like she knows what she's doing,
White is off her rocker…she killed the game to her own detriment. She was blaming Clark instead of bringing the team together with a plan…because she had no plan. SW lost both games because she did not prepare for the game…,
White needs to go. It’s her coaching and defense and offensive plays that aren’t working. CC isn’t the only one underperforming under this system,

List of Republicans Against Trump’s Weaponization Fund Grows—‘Bad Idea’

His intervention comes after some Senate and House Republicans publicly criticized the fund, signaling widening fractures within the GOP over the proposal

Mike Penceformer Vice President
It's deeply offensive to me that you could have a fund that could even possibly compensate people who assaulted police officers or vandalised the Capitol on January 6,
Mike Penceformer Vice President
Well, look, I think that the weaponization fund is a bad idea from the start. And I would encourage the administration just to drop it.”
Michael Cohen (lawyer)american former attorney and former Republican official
I am working through the process on my own and will submit the letter directly to the DOJ once completed."
The Department remains extremely confident in the legality of the Anti-Weaponization Fund which is supported by ample precedent, including Obama-era settlements,
Everybody's very excited about it,

Trump Blasts Judges After Ballroom, Kennedy Center Setbacks

President Donald Trump intensified his rhetoric against two federal judges over the weekend, following a series of legal and political roadblocks tied to high-profile administration initiatives: a proposed White House ballroom expansion and a sweeping renovation of the Kennedy Center

Donald Trumppresident
The DronePort at the White House Ballroom will be, perhaps, the most sophisticated anywhere in the World!"
Donald Trumppresident
If anything happens, he will be held responsible for the Death and Destruction caused to our Country,
Can you imagine? A Barack Hussein Obama Judge named Christopher Cooper has stopped a magnificent structural and aesthetic rebuilding of The Trump Kennedy Center where Millions of Dollars of material, marble, furniture, steel, air conditioning, heating, and so much else was ordered, or soon to be ordered, with the end result being a structure that would no longer be in a potential state of collapse, rusted, rotted, and rat and bug infested, to one that would be the Finest anywhere in the World,
Unless I am free to do what I do better than anyone else, bring this Institution back, physically, financially, and artistically,

Fever’s Stephanie White Under Fire After Latest Caitlin Clark Decision

White is killing CC's confidence and swagger. Anyone watching that game last night had to question why after a Portland ‘stop the bleeding’ timeout SW would pull CC and AB. I honestly wish CC would take a health leave of absence for a year and let the league see reality,
It was a stupid decision. Not even a rookie coach would have done that. White has got to go,
Stephanie Whitehead coach
Well, AB is still in a minutes restriction, so that's why she's coming out,
The Fever coach is embarrassing to the Indiana fans. @IndianaFever until they get a real coach, it's a waste of money and time. We love the Fever and want to support them, but it's clear they hate #22 we love her. Do you see the issue?”
