HIM keeps setting it off better than Jada and Latifah.

On this date 60 years ago, Red Auerbach announces Bill Russell will be the head coach of the Boston Celtics the following season ahead of NBA Finals Game 1. Not only would he be the first Black head coach in a major North American pro sport—not including the Negro Leagues—he’d be a player coach…

I've said we need to apologize for making this song a hit 25 years ago. Of all the rap-rock/nu-metal jawns that were popular, THIS got to No. 1? No amount of nostalgia or DJ-AM's scratching can save this song At least it sampled a great Chili Peppers instrumental that I loved later in college.

The UConn Huskies are heading back to the Final Four, the first team to punch their ticket to Phoenix. It's their 17th appearance in the last 18 tournaments. And 25th overall. Their win streak is now extended to 54-consecutive games.

As great as Notre Dame looked the other day, UConn's got them looking mortal today.

Dylan Darling's buzzer beater over Kansas made him, well, a March Madness darling this week. I talked to his mother and past coaches to find out why he was made for that moment. Get to know The Darling of St. John's ahead of the Sweet 16 www.newsday.com/sports/colle...

It's amazing how Cam Thomas' journey changed since I got switched off the Nets beat in Dec 2024. Some folks swore that previous summer he was gonna be paid and was untouchable. Injuries in 24-25 and now he's been waived twice this calendar year. Nothing is guaranteed when you're good but limited

I don't mind this song. Saw Anderson.Paak do it in Memphis last year. Bruno was showing love to the 70s in this version of "Who He Sound Like". I dug it. BUT this reminds me that Andy hasn't dropped a solo album since 2019. And we need another Paak album

Imagine telling somebody in 2011 or 2016 that Childish Gambino’s producer would be a 3-time Oscar winner for scoring movies. The dude that produced “Bonfire”, “Firefly” and “3005” Big ups to Ludwig Goransson.

Oakland gets another W with Alysa Liu and now Ryan Coogler. Yay Areeeeeeeeeea. This LA dude is glad for the Bay and Coogler as a master of craft.

I'm jealous St. John's gets to go to my old stomping grounds in San Diego. Might need to ask my bosses If I can help with coverage so I can enjoy my college town one time.

Never thought I'd see somebody get 80 points again after Kobe did it. It puts in perspective how incredible Wilt was to get 100 Salute Bam Adebayo getting 83!!!! That was remarkable.

This devilish, cruel winter got me thrilled to see 60 degrees today. We survived heavy snow and bitter cold for this goodness. Soon, this will feel normal and welcoming.

Amazing

Salute to a man who was probably the single most important studio engineer of my most formative years and beyond. He shaped sound, sharpened samples and varnished vocals. Tribe, De La, The Roots, Badu, D’Angelo and too many more. A true wizard. RIP Bob Power. 🕊️

I've said that I don't care what awards Sinners wins because the acclaim is the acclaim. Ryan Coogler is a master of craft and Hollywood knows it. The public knows it based on his box office returns. But this is pretty amazing.

It's jarring going from watching these new episodes of "Scrubs" to the older ones. Two different worlds but good feelings. We'll see how this reboot goes for 1 of my favorite shows.

Anytime I hear "señores y señoras" or any variation like we just heard from the Italian announcer in that Olympic hockey arena, I can't help but think of Jane's Addiction "Stop" Just me or anybody else raised on good alternative music?

Learning the NBA, I loved reading how fast paced those 1980s Nuggets teams were. Doug Moe was running and gunning in that altitude with Alex English, Fat Lever and more. Much respect and peace to his family, loved ones and former players.

I've loved this song for almost 20 years now and it's amazing hearing him sing it. His voice is still great just like when you heard it sampled on "I Wonder"

The amount of sword falling should make folks who haven’t yet think. From what’s been reported, Wasserman didn’t do anything close to what Tisch did in those emails (which I read). The Athletic’s 2nd report on Tisch adds more fuel to any investigation. Due process yes. But the clouds are dark

If Wasserman has to do this, there will be more pressure on Giants co-owner Steve Tisch From what we know, Wasserman only sent flirty emails to Ghislaine Maxwell years before Epstein’s crimes became public. Tisch emailed Epstein directly about meeting women after his 2008 conviction.

Awesome breakdown of Benito’s halftime show. Learned a lot

Drake Maye is hearing Mobb Deep in his head. Shook Ones because this Seattle defense is wrecking him and this offense.

Good Will Dunkin just went to the top for my fave commercial so far. Well played for those of us of a certain age

Will Lewis’s exit is long overdue. His legacy will be the attempted destruction of a great American journalism institution. But it's not too late to save The Post. Jeff Bezos must immediately rescind these layoffs or sell the paper to someone willing to invest in its future.

Our opinion page published a guest piece on Lindsey Vonn that was misogynistic trash. I had thoughts.

Today, February 7, 2026, is officially the 100th anniversary of Negro History Week and the 50th anniversary of Black History Month. Carter G Woodson purposely started Negro History Week on February 7th so that it would end on February 14th, which is Frederick Douglass's birthday

This is awesome. I was raised on John P Kee among many others growing up in church. Mom played his songs practicing for the choir. Gonna enjoy this.

It’s been a hard day for anybody who loves journalism and respects what it means. Forget the fact I’m in this business. I grew up a reader. I studied media criticism. I still read other papers to learn or just enjoy. You can’t replace what’s been lost and what will be lost from this news.

What does Giannis Antetokounmpo REALLY want? “If you ask me what do I really want, deep down in my heart?“ Yes, Giannis. He tells you, in an emotional ode to Milwaukee and the #Bucks www.jsonline.com/story/sports...

I typically don't care who wins a Grammy because that show has a history of being wonky with awards. Can't get mad about snubs knowing their history. If my faves win, doesn't change how I feel about em. But it's cool Benito got AOTY knowing what he wanted that album to mean for Puerto Rico.

This is a heater. Meant to share it a couple days ago but it's brilliant at taking down Bob Marley's "Legend" and the well-known steps behind its curation while also praising the music on it. Nuanced writing that reminds how legends can be re-molded from the shape they fought to establish.

I've wondered lately why I've evolved to not look for athletes to speak up. The W always will. A few more will. But if you're waiting for a celebrity to speak up to make you feel good, ask yourself why? I don't need it. I'll take it. But I can speak for me and the streets are talking just fine

Son???? What kind of sorcery is this.

John Harbaugh had his official welcome as Giants head coach. And one thing was clear....he wanted the Giants as much as they did. A look at how both parties made It work to reach Tuesday's introduction to a new era. www.newsday.com/sports/footb...

For today, we need to also hold up the fierce freedom fighting legacy of Coretta Scott King, Dr. King’s political partner. Eight ways to be like her for our struggle today.

Son……how in the hell did Caleb do this????

The Seattle Shellacking. Good alliteration. I approve.

Seattle manhandled the 49ers the last time they played. So what would you call this beating? Mollywhopped? Ransacking. A beating feels too kind

@dartadams.bsky.social had to ask since you’d know. Is today the 35th for Step in the Arena? Think I vaguely remember you did a video on it but I see today Quik is the Name and Digital Underground’s EP dropped so had to check before I post

If John Harbaugh delivers for the Giants like Hamilton, Elia Mediterranean Restaurant will be known as “the room where it happened”. The dinner that helped seal the deal. Maybe it gets remembered like the famous 1989 lunch b/w Jerry Jones & Jimmy Johnson before Jerry hired Jimmy

John Harbaugh's coming to the Giants. A quick primer at what to know and expect from the Giants' most accomplished coaching hire in over 30 years. Who's coming with Harbaugh? What to expect on the field? Why his NFC East roots will be a boost? www.newsday.com/sports/footb...

Clarence Carter just singing a song about swimming lessons. Stroke to the east, stroke to the west Teaching folks how to stay afloat when they get sassified 😊😊. Happy birthday good sir.

It appears the Thunder finally have a counter for the kryptonite the Spurs and that 7-4 Alien had for them all season.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Claudette Colvin, whose refusal to move seats on a segregated bus helped spark the civil rights movement, dies at 86.

Control turns 40 next month and it deserves all the praise it's received as a sea change record. For now, happy anniversary to the first single that showed some different was coming out of Janet Jackson.

This is really amazing. What a stat. Also, I'm in awe of how many points Steph has because it feels like he should have more. But then you see his games played and understand why.

Just a guy about to see his sister married. November’s ceremony was wonderful. Today will be too. Especially in our fatherland. Like Sinatra sang (and Bowie paraphrased), get me to the church on time. My sister is the prettiest woman in New Orleans today.
