Thrilled for my longtime friend. A great move by USA Today.

On this day in 1997, Depeche Mode released their ninth studio album “Ultra” featuring singles "Barrel of a Gun" "It's No Good" "Home" and "Useless" It was their first album following the departure of Alan Wilder and first they recorded as a trio since 1982’s “A Broken Frame”

We’re embarrassing.

This is how Bruce Springsteen opened his concert in Los Angeles last night. 🔥🔥 Footage from @margaret_nagle on Threads.

We lost 13 troops. Injured hundreds more. Killed thousands of Iranians, including school children. Used hundreds of millions of our tax dollars. Damaged our bases in the region and countless aircraft. Sent gas prices through the roof here and abroad. And we got what exactly?

This is one of my favorite stories I've ever written. NNU baseball was 2 outs from reaching the D-2 national title series when it all fell apart. How a coach reacts says a lot about them and their program. NNU's Joe Schaefer reacted how you want every leader to react: nnusports.com/news/2026/4/...

The bad news is the ceasefire ends just as we are flying to England. The good news is at least we don't have to worry about Kanye being on the plane!

Since there's (hopefully, presumably) no mass murder tonight, can we talk again about the insanity of the World Cup coming to the United States under these circumstances?

War, what is it good for? 🙌🏽 Absolutely nothing‼️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Springsteen aka The Boss still knows how to shake the ground & remind us what really matters. 💃🏽🤘🏽🎸🕺🏼

Best x file ever.

What’s next:

Do you like movies about gladiators?

Upon my fifth or sixth rewatch, pretty sure Season 4 of Fringe is the series' best.

Bruce Springsteen is some good, strong, sorely needed, goddamn medicine for Minnesota. This is a concert that is, and my words won’t do it justice, amazing. Sharp, specific, resolute, angry, and inspired. Some rock shows are all about just having a good time. Something larger is in play here.

I feel for Andre immensely. It was always going to be a hard road when they ceded the edge in the fall. But man was this a loss in character with this Jamaica team

You belong here 🏳️‍⚧️

For the first time ever, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will stream the two opening songs of the Springsteen & E Street Land of Hope & Dreams American Tour kickoff in Minneapolis — live and free at approximately 7:30 p.m. CT tonight!

Burt Reynolds got the part of God after he expressed an interest in appearing in the show to Robert Patrick while they were working together on “Striptease” (1996). Chris Carter readily approved the idea. #XFilesLive

Washington Missouri (population 15,000) #NoKings today. Trump supporters have driven in circles taunting protesters at past events, but I assume they can't afford gas now.

#ItsIronic that Jim Jackson called Braden Smith's final game when Jason Kidd, the guy Jackson fought over Toni Braxton, defeated Bobby Hurley, whose assist record Smith broke, in his final game!

One thing left unsaid in this: Pulisic was bad, his defensive effort level was bad, his body language was bad. I remain more optimistic than not about the US, but goddamn man, getting tired of waiting for him to look like a leader. Or even look dangerous – 1 goal in his last 10 US caps.

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

Holy New York.

I write about my fun trip to #MarchMadness! www.missourian.com/news/folsom-...

What the fuck? I just assumed NetFlix would drop the whole MLB season at once so we could binge it.

The time I went with Gianna in March 2017 to see Ben McCollum's Northwest Missouri State squadron win a regional tournament game. Her Maryville JH basketball teammate Serena Sundell sat in front of us.

Brenden Aaronson is fighting to make the #USMNT World Cup squad, and to stay in the Premier League. He spoke about both today, how he keeps the two pursuits separate in his mind, and more: www.inquirer.com/soccer/world... via @phillysport.bsky.social

“The World of Hans Zimmer” changed my life. I was enamored by the beautiful diversity of these extraordinary musicians, harmoniously demonstrating sheer joy, peace & our collective humanity. Our divide is a social construct rooted in the benefit of the few. We shall change the world.Together. ✊🏼🎶❤️‍🩹

The E Street Band is coming your way!

They can stop talking about it, but we are not going to forget about it.

If you were to make a list of the biggest games of Andre Blake’s career, what would be on it? Number one might be the one he's about to play in FIFA's World Cup qualifying playoffs. Blake must put the Union's woes aside as he tries to rally the Reggae Boyz: www.inquirer.com/soccer/world...

On this day in 1992, The Charlatans released their second studio album “Between 10th and 11th” featuring singles “Weirdo” and “Tremelo Song”

I wish the media would stop being manipulated by Donald Trump. You can’t believe anything that fucker says. Nothing.

It’s great to see The Chief around more. Heard good things about his book.

Brian Tighe rules.

Joe Kent’s resignation letter confirms what we already knew to be true — there was no imminent threat from Iran. There was no national security threat to our country. Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, JD Vance, etc… are lying to the American people. And to the world.

You'd think they'd let Reyes wear comfortable shoes in her coma but you'd be wrong. #XFilesLive
