My brother in Christ Aqueduct just closed, Golden Gate is closed, Arlington Park closed just so the Bears could use the land as leverage before threatening to leave it empty in favor of Indiana. Y'all don't have the juice left to try fucking with one of the Triple Crown races.

In another potential blow to the prestige of the Preakness Stakes, the second jewel of the Triple Crown will be excluded from a new $5 million “Thoroughbred Championship Series” that includes both the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont Stakes.

Fun fact, Gianni Infantino, in addition to FIFA, has a current membership in the International Olympic Committee ex officio- that is, he holds it specifically because he is the head of an Olympic sport. If he is ousted as FIFA head, it would as a knock-on effect kick him out of the IOC as well.

I don't think Infantino survives a no-confidence vote in this moment if it happens. CONCACAF and AFC can bleed 30 votes between them and get his ouster over the line, I don't think they bleed them, and that's before you bring the other 3 confederations into it. This looks like the end of Gianni.

UEFA has given FIFA President Gianni Infantino an ultimatum: resign or face a no-confidence vote, The Telegraph reports . It says all 55 members would back it. Only 43 votes are needed.

At this point, Caitlin Clark isn't the person the WNBA needs to do something about. Sophie Cunningham is the person they need to do something about, because she will be all too happy to tear the entire league down from the inside.
