When you hear the term Epstein Class, this is what it refers to. A group of elites that support one another, bury each other's secrets, defend each others indefensible acts. It's a big club, and you ain't in it. prospect.org/2026/02/17/e...

White would go on after the SEC stint to represent Les Wexner (!) & the Sackler family (!!). And in a moment of crisis, where she needed a strategy to avoid disgrace, she turned to corporate lawyer Ruemmler, pal of Jeff Epstein, to help her defend herself. prospect.org/2026/02/17/e...

Here it is. prospect.org/2026/02/17/e...

Guys I found the best Epstein Files email. The one that illuminates an elite class that's cocooned themselves into an unaccountable shell of wealth and privilege, fighting to protect their secrets and offenses. I could write a novel about this email. prospect.org/2026/02/17/e...

ESPN shifted games at the last minute and pre-empted one game midway through the second half, just to satisfy its Luka Lakers craving. There's a right way and a wrong way to do this. ESPN did this the wrong way. More at College Sports Wire: collegesportswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Nadal. Tribute. Podcast. @burtonad.bsky.social @tennis-skip1515.bsky.social and the coach, @tennisnerdmert.bsky.social, assess the career of an extraordinary athlete we were privileged to watch for two decades:

The one and only time I'll be included as belonging to a Big Three in anything tennis. : )

Our Nadal tribute podcast also includes analysis from @tennis-skip1515.bsky.social -- I didn't forget him, I simply couldn't locate his account. (Thank you, @saqiba.bsky.social!)

It's the Tennis With An Accent Rafael Nadal #Christmas tribute episode, produced by @saqiba.bsky.social and featuring commentary and remembrances from @burtonad.bsky.social and @tennisnerdmert.bsky.social. Enjoy this career retrospective on a giant of the sport: open.spotify.com/episode/1ZpC...

I think @burtonad.bsky.social just wrote "match over" in his notebook. 7-6, *2-0 Alcaraz. Nadal's career might just extend a little longer. #WeGonnaSee

I looked away from the USC wbb score for like 20 minutes and dear god, they have families. Would love to watch that 0.1% Northridge comeback play out though

NEW PODCAST: The guest is Lindsay Gottlieb, the head women’s basketball coach at USC. We discuss how she thinks about the role of media coverage for her program and what it means media-wise to have two AP Preseason All-Americans, Kiki Iriafen and JuJu Watkins. link.chtbl.com/SportsMediaP...

This exciting update now gives us statistics for legends such as Cheryl Miller, Doris Burke, Anne Donovan, Yolanda Laney, Teresa Edwards, Katrina McClain, Wanda Ford and Cynthia Cooper.

🚨 Major Site Update! 🚨 We are thrilled to announce that College Basketball Reference now has women's college basketball statistics all the way back to 1981-82, the first season of NCAA-sanctioned women’s basketball. Read more: www.sports-reference.com/blog/2024/11...

The Angels announce they've signed C Travis D'Arnaud to a two-year deal. $12 million. Less in 2025 than he would've gotten if Atlanta had picked up his option but two years for a backup catcher is OK. He won't change the Angels' fortunes all that much but it's good to have a decent backup catcher.

For the late crowd: What could have been Cooper Flagg’s coronation at Duke instead was a key early validator that Mark Pope’s grand vision at Kentucky is working: www.si.com/college-bask...

November and December will nominally be about confirming judges and kicking the can on must-pass bills. More ambitious efforts probably aren’t happening.

🚨NEW: Real-talk answers to big questions about how Dems alienated the working class & lost what they called the most important election in U.S. history. Dems pretended they can both enrich donors & help voters - an incoherence creating prime conditions for Trump.

Both parties proudly turned their campaigns into Billionaire: Endgame - a celebration of oligarchs & corruption. America cheered as its election became an oligarch auction. And the battle to "save democracy" torched whatever was left of democracy.
