It’s so depressing that what should be a civic holiday in New York is getting shut down for One Asshole and this is just kinda what it’s gonna be like until then

The NBA Finals have been pretty great so far, and have given fans basically everything they could have hoped for, with one exception—the chance to think more about President Donald Trump. That ends now.

Spike Lee should be legally required to wear Atlanta gear to the game tonight. And since the Hawks/Braves originated elsewhere, he should wear a Thrashers sweater.

Pretty insane decision!

A few days ago, the cheapest tickets available for MSG tonight were five figures. Now ticket prices have more than halved. Pretty unfortunate to see a market abandon its team but it’s clearly time for the league to move on. #Knicks2STL

I don’t really care if teams have sports gambling tie-ins at this point but the Louisville Kings just straight up using DraftKings iconography kinda sucks!

While true, they hate Trump less than St. Louis. This is demonstrably true.

Trump is going to a Knicks playoff game instead of the BattleHawks one because he knows where he will get a better reception

Don’t let the fact that it’s in a minor league that only one city cares even a little about distract you from the fact that the St. Louis BattleHawks are the biggest choking team in sports

A secondary reality star from two decades ago isn’t winning an election? Surely that can’t be right?

Is there a term for the opposite of a Napoleon complex?

Incredible beta loser energy

I was gonna say that if evil was gonna rise it might as well at least be this entertaining but that was also more or less my stance on the first Trump term

Well sure but the ten minutes of the game Trump watches before he leaves and spends the rest of his night posting that Spike Lee is very nasty and overrated will be worth all the hassle

The amount of Bosnia shirts/flags around South County today is inspirational. Lovely amount of national pride. I hope to have some someday.

People are jumping to Benny Johnson gay jokes because it’s a lot more comforting than considering that for a large number of women—not most, but millions—being married to a shitty asshole is a positive thing

They should’ve brought back Bernard Gilkey, the canonical Mets player to react when aliens come to Earth, for the Disclosure Day promos

It’s bad enough that Pete Hegseth believes what he believes. How the hell did we reach a point where he feels comfortable saying all that out loud?

NBA all-timer discourse is derailed any time somebody wants to bring up Karl Malone being an all-time great but also if you don’t give proper reverence to a certain 2003-04 teammate of his Who Did Nothing Wrong you’re in trouble

I just want to point out to any game three Knicks ticket holders that “JEFF-REY EP-STEIN” reads out beautifully to a classic five clap crowd chant

He certainly had his moment, but I kind of can’t believe Fat Joe has enough money to afford all these tickets

WEMBY NO (yes!)

Luke Kicknet

WEMBY NO (yes!)

That is a foul but I now fully expect and even demand OG Anunoby Ethical Hoops discoursing

Game 3 is gonna be as energetic of an arena as we’ve ever seen, of course That Fuckin Guy wants to go sap its buzz

Cardinals season really starting to go to plan now.

Fairly preposterous technical foul to call there!

Am I weird that I’m a guy who doesn’t have an intrinsic hatred for HR? Like the biggest flaw with them is that they are essentially mediators for benefit of a company and not employees, but I don’t really have seething animosity towards the nice people who tell employees not to be racist etc.?

Need to follow up with this lady from the Dome from 2015

Trump lost Minnesota by 1.51%, 7.12%, and 4.24%—it’s a blue state to the extent it’s either but it’s not exactly the People’s Republic of Minnesota—but the magic of 21st century political thought is they’re rendering Republicans winning Minnesota seemingly impossible

How is Pete Crow Armstrong real

I have some similarities to Graham Platner (we’re both white guys with no particular hairstyle and occasionally uneven beards) but also some differences (I have zero tattoos and if I got one I probably wouldn’t opt for Nazi stuff)

So what exactly is the argument *for* Platner

Between this and Zohran saying his favorite Knicks player was Thibs, big city mayors are having a rough go of it as sports fans

#bing #bong

With 1:11 left, Mikal Bridges just gave the Knicks as many free throws as Victor Wembanyama alone. #ethicalhoops

Mac McClung was really good in that dunk contest

The Spurs sure do go on a lot of runs with Wemby on the bench considering he invented the sport of basketball

The Charlie Kirk killing was nine months ago but it feels like a different era. Trump was obviously quite divisive but they had moments of silence at NFL games for a mid-tier podcaster and that just seems impossible now.

The nature of sports media in 2026 assures that this will never be as big as Canseco. But, like, that’s worse.

Just remembered when Keith Law lost his mind on here when the Rangers hired Skip Schumaker

Zohran pronounced the Thunder point guard’s name as Shy Gill-guess Alexander and then proceeded to call him a flopper, in case you wanted to know the levels of ball knowing he’s at

MSG tickets so expensive Trump might not even get booed that much
