Just look at these idjits.

MMA might have been a sport if it hadn't let itself be swallowed whole by UFC buffoonery. Martial arts are practices. UFC is a blood circus.

No, it's really not. Boxing is a sport, kickboxing is a sport. UFC matches are blood stunts and, in this case, a Nuremberg-style rally for the recruitment of a personal army dedicated to crotch kicking fellow Americans.

Over 250 years, Americans’ rambunctious approach to athletic endeavor has become part of the country’s ethos, @sallyjenx.bsky.social argues. In The Atlantic’s July issue, she examines America’s long history of sport and fandom:

I meant Captain Queeg. Spellcheck.

My favorite pic of these two. It captures their relationship: the mutual understanding of two people who absolutely lit themselves on fire to beat the other -- and wound up discovering they were in a partnership.

Really proud to have played a small role in bringing this film into being. Ask me, it blows away habitually slick sports documentary -- maybe because it isn't really about sports, although the tennis footage is riveting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qN_A...

Did you know George Washington played ball at Valley Forge? My latest. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Clearly.

There was literally zero critical thought. That place is managerial chaos with a Captain Queen at the top of the masthead, and it's a credit to the section editors and reporters that it remains functional.

Some did. But the local beat writers were almost uniformly our youngest -- I'm talking 22, 23, 24 -- and incredibly promising.

The very bright young people who held these jobs were brand new and they were the best crop of young writers and thinkers I had seen in years

What part of Bezos’s Washpost cost-efficiency involves recruiting for jobs that were capably filled five months ago by talented young people they kicked to the curb.

Bulletin from the top of Jeff Bezos’s Idiot Hill: the Washington Post has decided local sports audience matters and is seeking a new beat writer to cover the Commanders as well as other local sports stories. We could have saved them some trouble.

Did ESPN plan that salute shot? It certainly looked coordinated.

Also, I'm both a follow and a follower.

Looks to me like the followers are often the ones who set out to dunk, play gotcha, etc. It's a two way street.

Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce Joao Fonseca, who is upending tennis like a strongman flipping a tire. He hits his forehand like a cast iron skillet, and his backhand is sneaky dangerous, and lord does he love a fight.

What is the problem with these reply-quote cops??

It's hard to say which is more fun, watching Wembanyama grow into himself, or Joao Fonseca announce his massive potential at the French Open.

reason enough to move every game out of the US to Mexico and Canada. It can be done.

Utterly untrue.

The Guardian sets revenue record. How come Jeff Bezos is the only major news org owner who is losing money??? Answer: he doesn’t know his business. www.axios.com/2026/05/26/t...

They're always bald pedos.

This is just the worst. One of the great, great colleagues.

The lack of discipline has been Bezos's - he mistook his mailman money for expertise, and now he's shifting blame for his mishandling of the paper on to ...reporters?? He has his damn nerve. He should fire himself. Go back to reading Isaac Asimov and sell to a professional publisher.

Bezos has had his ass solidly kicked on all sides -- by the NY Times, WSJ, Reuters, Axel Springer, The Atlantic, the Guardian, Graham Holdings...all have found revenue growth and strategy. He apparently can't find his own shirt.

No one at the Washpost wanted Bezos' philanthropy. The staff is one of the most competitive rooms in the world. What they asked for was a winning STRATEGY, which he has been utterly ignorantly abysmally incapable of providing -- out of pure lack of applying himself and disinterest.

Bezos has yet to make a single good decision for th Washpost. His hires are uniformly awful. The paper's AI is a joke. He's killed revenue, invited a huge realm of gleeful competitors into its turf. He's the Dan Snyder of news org owners - an incompetent amateur without the grace to admit it.

This silly has his nerve. www.cnbc.com/video/2026/0....

Yes!

Does Kash Patel have a thyroid issue?

Real good writer.

New Jersey should screw FIFA by designating safe temporary bike routes.

Pieces of it would get use by plenty of people who live in the areas.

But won't the train cost 100 bucks on game day?

@mikiesherrill.bsky.social should consider making some dedicated safe bike routes from Manhattan and surrounding towns to Met Life for the World Cup. That's what the Dutch would do. It's only 10 miles or so and folks can take ferries from Manhattan to Weehawken Hoboken, Edgewater...

There are only 3 real stars, Jon Rahm, DeChambeau, Dustin Johnson.

no.

Why is the media mourning the loss of the Bonesaw Golf Competition? I'm not sorry the sport washing has failed. #LivGolf

Absolutely right. It was 54 hole exhibition golf with grotesquely large guarantees, and the shotgun start meant no one had to feel any sense of pressure on the closing holes, because there WERE no closing holes, just hit and giggle golf at hacker's paradises.

They'll let him back -- at a price.

Corruption in cleats didn't sell.
