I liked it better when the people running my country were just standard replacement-level shady power-hungry pricks, not literally the worst people alive.

Excellent read here by @owensports.bsky.social, highly recommended.

Trump siding with Saudi murderers over journalists and innocents is ... ... well, frankly, something we all saw coming. Least surprising development ever, evil POS president sides with other evil-doers and is incapable of trying, even a little bit, to downplay what an evil POS he is.

On paper, Anthony Joshua vs Jake Paul represents the final chapter of boxing’s most unserious era, its conclusion allowing us to wipe clean the hard drive and return to the factory settings. My thoughts on why this fight may be exactly what boxing needs: www.boxingscene.com/articles/ant...

If you hated Dick Cheney and everything he stood for, you have to vote against all MAGA Republicans today. If you loved Dick Cheney and everything he stood for, you have to vote against all MAGA Republicans today.

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here. And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

Because America somehow went brain-dead enough to elect the wrong guy. #SavedYouAClick

Anything going on today in the gambling world? No? Nothing? Well, then, here's a podcast to listen to while you're bored. Unabated's Captain Jack Andrews joins me on a new ep of LOW ROLLERS, looking back a nice, round 19 years later on the short-term, long-term, and unintended impacts of UIGEA.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

When I asked Jimmy Lange how he felt about "The Contender" as a TV show, he started with an analogy about "Stairway to Heaven." Really enjoyed catching up with Jimmy for my Contender 20th anny series, talking Sly, Dan Quinn, "unrealistic reality," and more: www.boxingscene.com/articles/jim...

“Tearing down monuments erases history!”

A hypothetical I never would have considered was “Imagine if the American with the very worst record of managing construction projects were singularly responsible for the building most symbolic of democracy and decided to do his thing with both it and what it symbolizes”

I made signs expressing points of disagreement with the government

Wouldn’t have expected to find myself typing these words, but: I am enjoying the shit out of Chad Powers.

"Wokeness" has a real branding problem. We should call it what it is: giving half a shit about people who don't look exactly like you. It's too easy for the assholes to claim they're "anti-woke." Would be better if they had to admit they're anti having a whiff of empathy (which is what they are).

The late Vernon Forrest is perhaps the perfect distillation of the argument over how much having one great fighter’s number is worth. A look at the cases for and against the former champ who's been newly (belatedly) added to the Hall of Fame ballot: www.boxingscene.com/articles/is-...

She absolutely thinks she's Jeff Daniels in The Newsroom, not realizing she's Jeff Daniels in Dumb & Dumber.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you give a list of the prescriptions you take to a federal government that has directly targeted people with chronic illness, mental illness, disability, autism, etc, with the eugenic language of elimination and stated outright they’re everything wrong with the country.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

I got an advance look at the new Dwayne Johnson/MMA movie "The Smashing Machine," and I wrote a little something about one of the film's supporting actors, Oleksandr Usyk, a damned fine choice to play a world-class combat athlete from Ukraine: www.boxingscene.com/articles/ole...

New episode of LOW ROLLERS! Chris Altruda joins us to to break down all the details of the New York casino bidding, and drops a rather hot take on where the licenses are ultimately going — as well as what it all means for NY iCasino legalization hopes.

I don't know about Tylenol and autism and all that, but I do know we need to ban whatever meds Mary Anne Trump was on during her fourth pregnancy.

It was a sad weekend in the gambling world. Can't quite claim I was truly close with Dave Sharapan, but I was privileged to call him a friend, and to write a little something this morning about him. RIP, Consig. www.ingame.com/remembering-...

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated. Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms. Collective boycott. Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.
