I’m sorry but anyone giving a different answer is just objectively wrong.

So the allegation is Billups tipped off gamblers that the Blazers were tanking and that Dame et al wouldn’t be playing.

oh come on, this joke is real now. jim trusty was trump's lawyer in the stolen documents case.

Old Soviet joke: Why do ICE agents travel in groups of three? One can read, one can write, and the third keeps an eye on the two intellectuals

this is pretty amazing

This is a perfect case study in how to frame legal news in a totally misleading way that scares people for engagement. The actual "news" here is that the petition is scheduled for conference. Nothing about this is meaningful—*all petitions* must be considered at a conference! Almost all are denied.

sports gambling is a shitshow in general but this shows why prop bets specifically are a disaster, incredibly easy to manipulate for gambling purposes “oh I’m going out with an ‘injury’ tonight, bet the under” also, you know, high tech mafia poker cheating

"it seems reasonable to conclude that the administration, through Miller and his team, is selecting boats more or less at random, and intentionally killing people who could be captured, because they think it’s fun." prospect.org/2025/10/23/p...

Everyone who isn’t a cis white male has to understand that eventually, they’ll turn on you too, no matter how much you abase yourself. And cis white males have to demonstrate an ounce of goddamn humanity.

I hope the gay racists and plutocrats who supported this are happy.

absolutely geeked off crumbl cookies dirty soda and a needle full of testosterone so pure it’d make a soviet blush

small brain: these “women” are clearly transgender big brain: these women are taking T to become nuclear fuck machines galaxy brain: these women are setting PRs at the mormon planet fitness you can’t even comprehend

sorry all i’ve been able to think about today are mormon aunties walking around absolutely geeked out on gear

Also interesting that Rozier cleared by the NBA but now charged by the FBI. Not sure which organization I trust less!

When the guy says "you only take orders from a pedophile rapist piece of shit" you can see the words hit.

There is something interesting to be written about how a movement that views its adherents as uber-men is struggling to find thugs who aren't illiterate and out of shape.

Research is clear: millionaire flight due to higher taxes is simply not a thing. Millionaires move *less* than the rest of us and often move from one higher-tax state to another (because of amenities!). prospect.org/2025/10/23/m...

The fact it is effective and popular is exactly why the wealthy are so aggro about opposing it

tired: using Qatari money to try to destroy the Whitehouse by flying a plane into it wired: destroying the Whitehouse and keeping the Qatari plane

If Chauncey Billups was really cheating people in high stakes underground poker games getting pinched by the FBI was probably the best possible outcome

My concern is they won't have to push that hard. I would hope that Carney's econ side would see China's electric transformation and want to model Canada after it but at this point I think the safe money on Carney rests on perpetual disappointment.

I know everyone loves to be annoyingly puritanical about gambling now, because they are dweebs, but the prevalence of gambling sites where large irregular wagers are easily flagged with names and bank routing numbers is not increasing illegal gambling schemes, it’s increasing arrests

just type “wemby” in the search bar and every play is more eye-popping and jaw-dropping than the last, my favorite is the dribbling because like, what, how, some of this shit doesn’t even look real, like he’s not only 7-4 he’s doing close-up magic and the dudes guarding him are audience jamokes

Just saw some Wemby highlights from his 40-15 (in 30 minutes!) last night and, um, holy shit.

What is the exact opposite of the Blues Brothers to lead this? JD and the Straight Shot?

The board should have gutted the front office that year. To run it back was the most critical error of the last ten years. Everyone knew there was something off about that group. The had the SCF handed to them on a tee and whiffed in the most embarrassing way possible

This is in part explained by staying on X and rotting their brains thinking this is all “normal.” It’s not!

It’s funny how I swung from “every issue is complicated and it’s important to explore all of the subtleties” in my 20s to “some moral clarity is sorely needed” in my, uh, later years

Hello, people new to the internet! McSweeney's is a humor site and a very good one. This is not a real quote from a real person. This is their mockery of that NYT editorial. Please stop responding like it's real.

On the other hand…

A wise man once said you’ve got to stand for something, or you’re gonna fall for anything. Seems to apply to Democratic leadership pretty broadly.

I just can’t get over how there are serious democratic strategists who think that knowingly having a Nazi tattoo for years isn’t utterly disqualifying. I don’t care how good his other policies are. No tent should be big enough to include Nazis or even the Nazi-curious.

Incredible what a great Rorschach test the Platner tattoo is. Almost no one I have respect for is defending it and almost everyone I think is a dishonest hack is coming up with excuses. Like, cutting across ideology even!

Someone tell me why everyone's falling on their swords for the Blackwater Redditor with the SS tattoo in a primary with a bunch of other candidates that's months away

Blake is the Bo Jackson of Toronto sports coverage.

Fuck Ohtani and everyone else who ever used us for leverage. We went to the World Series without you.

Conservative media criticism? We’ve got to do better, there must be some reason they don’t trust us Liberal media criticism? Time to go on twitter and mock the libs so conservatives know I’m one of the cool ones

Springer actually did this

MARINERS MARNERS 🤝 FAILING IN GAME 7

It's pretty cool that the guy they traded to get Price for the 2015 run is now closing out this game ten years later

105.8 mph rocket by Addison Barger with a .590 xAVG turns into a double play. Tough break in the Blue Jays' quest for an insurance run.

Hoffman time

Hoffman if you close this I’ll never doubt you again.

Springer’s homer was 99 mph. Barger just hit it 106. Baseball can be cruel.

George Springer has a whole kennel in him man — dude has an Iditarod team running through his veins
