Man I just don't know about this offensive line. Not a ton to feel super good about on the interior.

I really cannot wait until a Democrat is president again and the Supreme Court miraculously discovers the ability to find things the president does illegal. It's going to be so fun and not at all horrifically infuriating.
New York Daily News @nydailynews.com · yesterdaySupreme Court chief justice allows work on Trump’s $400M White House ballroom to continue for now
Yeah this is a funny story and everything but, I think this woman might need some help. This is not normal behavior.
Headquarters@headquartersnews.bsky.social · yesterdayNatalie Harp sprints after Trump's golf cart in newly unearthed image.
I mean... if it's this, the completion of his stupid ballroom that they've already demolished half the White House for that serves as the test case for ignoring the Supreme Court before a Democrat is elected president, I could think of worse outcomes.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoMonica Crowley suggests Trump might defy the Supreme Court if they don't allow him to build his ballroom: "I don't want to get in front of the president, but I do know that other options are being considered, because the president has committed to the completion of this project"
The fact that Melania wants absolutely nothing to do with her husband and would prefer to keep as far away from the White House as humanly possible but they had to wheel her out in front of everyone right when the Harp stuff is coming out is as close to an admission of something you'll ever get.

I hated Doc as a coach and for what he did to this Bucks team, but him texting Sage Steele and calling her an idiot for supporting Trump is a rare W that I can appreciate.
Yeah I'm not going to be upset the Bucks didn't pay that price for Watson. Now just get through the offseason without doing anything (else) stupid and we'll be good to go.
Also if Silver ends up punishing the Bucks for the Gary Trent thing the lesson in the future should be that they would have been better off signing him to another minimum and just had Fiserv or some shell company pay him $60 million under the table.
So basically unless you have Ballmer handing these sponsors a brown paper bag of cash with "For Kawhi/Cap Circumvention" written on it there's nothing they can do? Right....
NBA Daily News@insidenbanews.bsky.social · 6d agoNBA has found no evidence showing Steve Ballmer funneled money through team sponsors to pay Kawhi Leonard to circumvent the salary cap, per Baxter Holmes, Don Van Natta Jr., Ramona Shelburne, Shams Charania.
Cleveland gets off the Schroeder money. Watson to Cleveland then?
The basic difference in data center policy between Hong and Crowley is essentially the use of the word moratorium. The governor can't unilaterally implement one so they'd have to go to the legislature, which was part of her proposal.
What Tom Tiffany is trying to pull on data centers is some of the most outright dishonest shit you'll see and a lot of people are getting suckered by it. Crowley shouldn't let him get away with it or play into it.
This second half has been an abomination even by preseason standards.
Beal back to the Clippers... Who are the Heat even going to fill out their team with at this point?
Man, this Packers secondary has a chance to make a lot of quarterbacks look good this year.
Someone needs to tell Jayden Daniels that he's not Joe Burrow....
The valuations are just getting so out of control that the only people who can even hope to afford teams are the ones that are so rich that they had to do unspeakable things to accumulate that much money. Soon it'll just be the Saudis and private equity with the funds to buy teams.
Velodus✨@velodus.bsky.social · last wk.I miss when the guys who owned sports teams were the CEOs of restaurant chains and car companies and stuff, and not like... Jared Kushner's brother.
There's just a ceiling with a team that builds themselves the way the Brewers do. They have to scrape and claw to score. They don't have anyone in the lineup that you can count on to deliver.
This whole Lakers thing just absolutely stinks and shows how deeply the right is sinking it's claws into sports culture. From McAfee being the guy at ESPN to the astroturfed drama in the WNBA. Now you have an owner being, what at least looks like, strong armed into selling the marquee NBA franchise
Josh Kushner is at least ostensibly a registered Democrat, who donates to Democrats, and who didn't vote for Trump either time, but the only thing that really moves and motivates these people is money so it'll be interesting to see how this all came together. It certainly looks sketchy at face value
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2w agoso Mark Walter, who was at the White House recently, is under investigation by the Trump administration and just so happened to abruptly sell one of America’s premier sports franchises to the brother of Trump’s son in law 🤔
Kushner tried to get FIFA to sell the World Cup to private equity and now he owns the most valuable team in the NBA. That is certainly worth monitoring.
Walter selling the Lakers already? And to a Kushner? Yuck.
Credit to Hong too, she's a class act. Ran an unabashed left campaign but I can't think of one time she said something negative about her opponents, and as someone who followed the absolute dumpster fire of a primary in Michigan pretty closely that was very noticable.
Another story of the night is that Hong just didn't run up the score in Dane county which I'm sure she was counting on. Definitely would have been a warning sign for the general although you could say the same about Crowley and Milwaukee. Milwaukee though has its own turnout issues these days.
My post primary hot take is that Crowley winning will ultimately prove to have been a good thing for the left in Wisconsin.
There's a non zero chance Tom Tiffany was drunk trying to give his victory speech tonight. 😂
