Looking backwards and forwards

June 17, 2026

In 2003, when San Antonio Spurs won 1st championship with Pop, Tony, Manu & Tim, Parker was 21 yrs old, Ginóbil, 26, & Duncan, 27. 2026 Spurs big 3 are Wemby, 22, Castle, 21 & Harper 20 Sure, they acted young at times. But at their ages many are still in school or living at home.

Game five averaged 24.5 million viewers on ABC and ESPN “making it the most-watched Game 5 since 1998.”

Imagine what a game six tonight would have gotten. Sigh.

.

Quarterback Brendan Sorsby, who’s admitted to countless bets, including on his own teams in college , is going to give up on playing for Texas Tech and will enter the NFL draft

What could possibly go wrong?

We all know Roger Goodell would never let money stand in the way of the integrity of the game.

Rachel Maddow Monday talking about how Trump is trying to stop the opening of the US Canada Gordie Howe International bridge.

Because while the bridge was 100% funded by Canada, Donald wants half ownership for the US.

We don’t have a president. We have a mob boss.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney should just open the Canadian side of the Gordie Howe bridge and dare Trump to stop cars. Or invade.

TACO! TACO! TACO!

Even when they cover the worst Fox News sanewashes

Headline.

‘I didn’t like that sh–‘ says Gillis after Hokit makes crude remark about Michelle Obama

Story about Shane Gillis as controversial comedian. Only in 2nd paragraph does it say “Hokit claimed “without evidence that Michelle Obama is a man.”

And yeah ‘without evidence” is a lot of letters to say “lying”


This line from Trump to Macron in France did not get the attention it deserved. On the UFC: “Is that maybe more important than the World Cup? To some people it might be”

Jimmy Kimmel on the UFC circus.

“Last night Trump turned the White House into a Waffle House.”

To be fair, most of us would rather have been at a Waffle House. They’re friendly and the food is good!

So inflation is high, gas prices remain through the roof, and a recent CBS poll found “67% of Americans say they’re actively stressed about money”

GOP solution. Let’s get people upset about MLB players not being able to put bible verses on baseball caps.

About this Pride MLB madness:

Why are all these MAGA folks suddenly upset about a rainbow patch on a cap that shows soliditary with LGBTQ community?

While their MAGA caps show solidatory with a man who CHOSE to commit adultery in all 3 of his marriages?

Senator Josh Hawley has decided putting bible verses on hats is an issue he cares about.


So he’d be OK with this verse on immigrant players’ hats?


Leviticus 19:33-34: “When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt”.

Trump seems excited that French President Emmanuel Macron invited him to a dinner at Versailles on Wednesday.

Does anyone think Donald knows what happened to the last King who lived at Versailles?

Is it just possible Macron invited Trump to a Wednesday night dinner at Versailles (starting early am Thursday DC Time) to make sure Donald was passed out asleep during the opening of Emmanuel’s friend Barack Obama’s Presidential Library?

Six members of our US Military along with two Boeing employees, died yesterday in a B-52 crash at Edwards Air Force Base and already the story is gone from Fox News website.

Imagine if Biden were President and Lloyd Austin were Secretary of Defense.

And still no words of condolences from Donald…
