Posts like this are why no @AZATHLETICS fan can stand Jeff Goodman. Just terrible at messaging.
I understand people are upset that Feast Week has changed. Maui isn’t what it was, Battle for Atlantis is history, Orlando and Charleston are watered down. The portal, NIL, Players Era and soon the NCAA tourney will change. It’s the new world of college hoops. Get used to it.

WAY different. That was American news at its ideal.
Imagine how different things could have been if they were covering the news.

Incidentally, congrats are in order to a big time kicker, @DominicZvada from @VCHS_FB who is still a kid from his days killing it for the Crusaders when I used to cover him. He won another for @UMichFootball today at Northwestern and should be All-American as a sr. WTG DZ!

This, in my heart, is how I feel.
@xtrixcyclex @TrueFactsStated No - our America is still here. We've just been shouted down, pillaged, and plundered by @GOP #MAGA criminals. We've never experienced authoritarianism before - and didn't think "it could happen here." 🇺🇸'ns are fighters and we'll put down this criminal coup like the filth it is.

I can't wait for Big 12 play. @ArizonaMBB has answered the doubters with deep shooting, team defense and--perhaps, even?--a zone-busting ability to attack the rim. But first, unfinished business in Storrs against Coach Grievance and @UConnMBB. BTFD Cats!
As of now, no one has two better resume-boosting wins than Arizona. Florida in Las Vegas. UCLA in Los Angeles. The Wildcats look like a contender in the Big 12 and nationally.

Yep. Because complaining is something Trump never, ever does. Never. Ever.
@RpsAgainstTrump Trump: “If we die, we must die and we as men we die without complaining.” This is pure cosplay. The man talks like he’s a WWII frontline commander… but he once nearly declared a national emergency because it was raining on his hair. Nothing about this is “bravery.” It’s a

It takes a lot for Harrison Ford to sound off about politics. This is as clear an alarm bell for America as can be sounded.
BREAKING: Hollywood legend Harrison Ford enrages MAGA world by torching Donald Trump in a fiery new takedown: "I don’t know of a greater criminal in history." Indiana Jones never was too fond of Nazis... Ford told The Guardian that Trump “doesn’t have any policies, he has

Stellan Skarsgård on his worldviews "My father told me something when I was very small to instill confidence in me: 'Nobody in the world is worth more than you, but nobody’s worth less.' It is an egalitarian view that I’ve carried around in my life. That’s why I am for free

I admit that I was wrong: Until the Trump administration flipped on giving justice to the Epstein victims I had advocated for things that I am critical of today (domestic terror designations, National Guard in US cities). I was tribal, overtly biased and a acting cheerleader for

Just finished watching the streaming premiere on HBO of #TheSubstance and....holy mother forking shirt balls. This is not just @justdemi 's finest performance, light-years ahead of anything else she has ever done, an absolute travesty it didn't win Oscar--it is a must-see. Wow.

Never were our national politics of the moment so accurately stated. America is no longer capable of serious world leadership, as the essential seriousness of its culture has rotted away. All that's left are never-adults ignoring, mocking & disrespecting overwhelmed caretakers.
We are an unserious nation led by unserious people, and our enemies have noticed. The parade in China was worse than a mere snub; it showed that the world doesn't respect Trump - and doesn't have to. Newest from me: https://t.co/CsdBvD8pJq

One of the Pac-10's best hoops coaches--and a great Friend of @luteolson.
It is with deep sadness and unimaginable pain that we share the passing of our beloved “Coach,” George Henry Raveling.

A huge loss. Dude just showed up and played like an All-Star for 160+ days a year for 14 years. RIP Ryno.
Super Sky Point to Ryne Sandberg, my favorite second baseman of all time. I will never forget the countless hours tuned into WGN with Harry Caray and Steve Stone during those beautiful childhood summers that lasted forever. Before we knew how fast time actually flies and that our

This sums up most of my teaching and high school experience in Arizona, unfortunately.
What a culture "A series of studies found that those who volunteer to take on unwanted tasks or who hand out gifts without being prompted, quickly alienate themselves. Psychologists believe this is because it makes the rest of us feel guilty and puts pressure on us to behave in
