Kevin McCarthy allegedly elbows someone, GOP Sen. Markwayne Mullin almost got into physical fight with witness during hearing, then Draymond Green puts Timberwolves player in headlock during NBA game. So what was in the air today and did it exacerbate testosterone poisoning?

UC Irvine upsets USC for the Trojans’ first loss of the season in men’s basketball. So of course UC Irvine is trending over on Twitter.
