Dale Wasserman's stage play - ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO’S NEST (adapted from the novel by Ken Kesey) starring KIRK DOUGLAS and GENE WILDER opened at the Cort Theatre in New York 62yrs ago today. MICHAEL DOUGLAS later convinced his Father to let him produce the wonderful Film.

Debunking the myth that players mutinied ahead of Bilbao. The conservative style was a strategy hatched in February, and a common approach AP employed in big knockout games. Interesting interview with Tom Barclay about his new book, Miracle in Bilbao. pca.st/episode/f2e6... #COYS

Uh... AURORA BOREALIS!? AT THIS TIME OF YEAR, AT THIS TIME OF DAY, IN THIS PART OF THE COUNTRY, LOCALIZED ENTIRELY WITHIN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD?!

I had to screenshot this as it's literally in the US Soccer "Safe Soccer" training and, sorry, I would not bother with the first threeof the four Cs. I would not feel the need to Create a space for this person to speak more about his world view. I'd proceed right to Criticize.

The OP was the passing map for our match with Villarreal, with the poster asking "What is this?" This may well be the only time in my life I've made fetch happen so please don't take this away from me...

Tell me you don’t understand risk pools without telling me you don’t understand risk pools

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

Xavi is the future.

A great lot for the vinylly inclined! #GratefulDead #TheDoors www.ebay.com/itm/28692611...

Truly happy for Sunderland.

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

it is darkly humorous that after all these years, the Republican health insurance plan ends up being to end health insurance

Good goal from Richarlison but bonestly thought we celebrated way too hard with 5 minutes of injury time left. Shouldn't even have yielded that corner and of course letting De Ligt be unmarked on the far post is bad.

Put in Scarlett. What do we have to lose?

And another! Both from our usual suspects...Romero and Palhinha.

We did a shot!

Just getting out of bed. Sounds as if I've missed a rollicking half.

I will never forget the Toronto Blue Jays relief pitchers sharpie-ing Vesia’s number on their caps during games 6 and 7 of the World Series for as long as I live. Just a simple act of love and solidarity and sportsmanship so desperately needed in these awful times. Class organization.

The difference between France in 1793 and the United States in 2025? Marie Antoinette was *indifferent* to people starving. But Donald Trump is using every trick at his disposal to *make sure* they do.

"They want everyone to know these thugs they’ve deployed to terrorize cities are battle-hardened and impervious to pain. But in court, they're such delicate flowers that if they are, say, lightly grazed by a sandwich, they are entitled to justice because of the horrific assault they have suffered."

They should never let Vinovich do another game in Denver.

Look how RFK Jr. just fled the scene! lol

holy shit -- one of Trump's toadies just passed out and the White House event is brought to an abrupt end

Federal agents pulling a woman out of Rayito Del Sol, a daycare by Lane Tech high school

Once upon a time, American soldiers handed out food to Germans because *they* had followed a fascist madman into national ruin. How times change.

The federal judge in the Trump administration’s prosecution of James Comey, the former FBI director, on Wednesday blasted President Trump’s handpicked prosecutor, Lindsey Halligan, for taking an “indict first, investigate later” approach to the case.

"Rep. Mike Quigley, a Democrat representing Illinois, said ICE agents followed the teacher into the school 'without a warrant and abducted her in front of her students.'"

Timely reminder... Keith Hernandez: WAR 60.4, JAWS 50.8, OPS+ 128, WS rings with two different teams, arguably the best defensive first baseman of all time. Mattingly: WAR 42.4, JAWS 39.1, OPS+ 127. So guess which one is a #HOF finalist. #MLB #Cardinals #Mets #Yankees #bias #ballparkeffect #SNY

Son's was better but it's fun to see them side by side.

Micky talks through his goal

WOW. A federal judge says he's going to issue a Temporary Restraining Order requiring ICE to make changes at the Broadview facility in Chicago, a facility that until January was only for stays under 12 hours "absent exceptional circumstances," but has become, in Judge Gettleman's words, "a prison."

Serious Q for UK #COYSky: In what tier of the EFL would you place København's defense?

Why can't we just let Scarlett take that?? It's 4-0 and it'd have been a CL goal he'd always remember. That's poor man management there.

Special player. A goal reminiscent of Bale and Son.

Honestly, I think that was just Brennan's legs bouncing up off the turf but okay...

Can we play this keeper every week?

New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field. In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnap—a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront. By me & @carolinehaskins.bsky.social:

Kolo Muani not exactly exuding "finisher."

Just about an hour apart by the way

Asking for a friend (Brennan Johnson), is it good to be very good at doing the thing (scoring goals) that most directly helps teams win games?

Now that is a keeper losing his mind. Johnson again ole ole.

Commentators properly jixing us in the 11'.

In US, too.

I've been a huge Deki fan since this piece.

Fergus on fire in this thread.

Congratulations to Dave Roberts and the Los Angeles Dodgers for winning an epic World Series! My treasured client, the late Scott Miller, interviewed Roberts for SKIPPER: WHY BASEBALL MANAGERS MATTER. www.goodreads.com/book/show/21...

We've got you 👍

From @theathletic.com: How can you tell when you’ve just been part of the greatest World Series game of your lifetime? Game 7 between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays kept us riveted from start to finish. Nobody is going to forget this one. nyti.ms/3JI4ZVV
