- It is now official. To at least the civil "preponderance of the evidence" standard, Donald Trump is an adjuged rapist -- liable for defamation and battery in the E. Jean Carroll rape case.
- It is now ALSO official... NASCAR likes these fights. After a late-race altercation led to a punch-fest between Ross Chastain and Noah Gragson after the race on Sunday, NASCAR levied no penalty -- finding no rule broken by either driver.
- The Justice Department has also formally charged controversial Republican Representative George Santos with SOME federal crime in New York -- he will appear today. The charge was filed sealed.
- Fraud, money laundering, tax cheat... Some of us are still not convinced he is George Santos, or that a George Santos even exists!
- 13 charges in all, out on $500,000 bail and the fact he's important.
- John Anderson should be looking for a new job after he quipped that the last name of a Las Vegas defenseman would be better suited for toilet paper.
- Zach Whitecloud is part-American Indian.
- And it looks like the Max Scherzer story is getting worse. Scheduled to pitch on Tuesday.
- Neck spasms. Shyeah and fucking RIGHT.
- He is now scheduled to start today and then Monday. We'll see.
- Tommy Kuhl, a senior at the University of Illinois, set a course record at a local US Open qualifier by shooting 62. However, when realizing how difficult others had it to putt, he told a rules official something he did, and he was disqualified.
- Kuhl was repairing some of the aeration marks on the greens. The greens were aerated, and the Rules of Golf the USGA is governed under makes that an illegality. Aerated greens make the holes on the greens part of the course, and Kuhl was improving his position by repairing some of the marks.
- Yeah, and I don't think the USGA would've wanted that as a Qualifier course if it wasn't that difficult.
- Bob Huggins has been fined $1,000,000 of his salary for the homophobic slur he made against Xavier fans.
- And before anybody else thinks he got off easy, one question: This is West Virginia. You don't think a lot of people... agree with that slur and it's usage?
- Well, THIS just got far more interesting. Scratched Kentucky Derby favorite Forte just had an unadjudicated failed drug test leak out from last September. He then won the Breeders' Cup Juvenile two months later.
- As of the end of last night, we have had fifty-one MLB ejections this year, two more last night.
- It was June 7th before we got #51 and 52 last year.
- And May 20th two years ago for #51.
- At this rate, we're looking, by May 20, at about 75!
Day 2 of the ABC Jeopardy Masters first round:
- Game 1: Mattea, Amy, and Sam. Mattea and Sam found and converted the Daily Doubles in Double, Sam got Final wrong. Mattea gets the three points as a result, Amy gets one.
- Game 2: Andrew, James, and Matt. Matt under the eight-ball, Andrew and James won the first two games. Matt got a Double Daily Double off of James, and tied him after the two boards. Matt played for at least one point, and got all three when James scrubbed out the correct answer in Final and gets nothing! Andrew, who was locked out, lucks into a point.
- Standings:
- Andrew leads with four points.
- Mattea, James, and Matt have three.
- Amy has two.
- Sam has one. Amy and Sam are on the bubble.
- And they face each other, and James, in the next round of games tonight. Andrew, Mattea, and Matt try to solidify their semifinal positioning in the other game.
Finally got around to that documentary you never told us about. Tell me, how easy was it to lie about everything you said in the interview?
