June 13, 2023 News and Notes, other than The Orange Fuck

• The Denver Nuggets win the NBA Championship Monday night...
• ... and 10 people get shot in the celebration in a mass shooting.
• Drug deal gone south near the celebrations, per the Denver Police.
• The US Open is this week at the Los Angeles Country Club.  I think the best way to describe the fairway at 13 is a "false fairway".  You land just to the right of center, get out your wedge, that thing will literally roll off the hill and into the rough.  Here we go again -- what's the USGA's goal?  First to break 300 wins the tournament?   
• The USGA is having some fun with a couple of the golfers.
• Adam Hadwin had an incident after countryman Nick Taylor drained a 72-foot putt to win the Canadian Open on the fourth playoff hole last Sunday.  He went out to spray champagne on the fellow Canadian, and security promptly creamed him.
• The USGA sent a note to Hadwin's locker upon arrival, stating they had his protection in mind -- and, below it, a couple of hard hats and a protective vest.
• Joel Dahmen was left at the course after practice on Monday last year -- after having his car given to somebody else last year, he was told, for Monday practice, to park in Lot F while the other players were in Lot A so it wouldn't happen again!
• Apparently, Tori Bowie died as a complication of childbirth.
• The Swedish women's national team was forced to strip naked in front of various team officials to prove they had the proper genitalia. IN 2011!!!!!!!!!!!!!   
• This was a trans panic attack after there were allegations that three men played for the team in Equatorial Guinea.  I'd probably lay money they were, more, the Differences in Sexual Development situation we've seen with a number of African athletes in the last 15-20 years.
• FIFA required SOME FORM of gender testing at the time, but not necessarily a full genital inspection.
• A report from a bystander indicates that an ambulance had it's tires deliberately punctured by a punk-ass bitch in Philadelphia.
• Apparently the only situation from that fracas at the end of Game 4 in Florida was one $2500 fine.  I thought the rule was that if you instigated a brawl at the end of a game, especially a playoff game, you were subject to suspension!   
• Don't look now.  
• Seriously.
• I mean it.
• The Oakland A's have WON SIX IN A ROW!!!!
• Now, this still only puts their record at 18-50, but...
• Tonight is supposed to be the "reverse boycott" game.  We'll see about that.
• Monday's game with Tampa Bay drew 4,848.
• The long national nightmare of Pat Sajerk is over.  Sajak is retiring at the end of next season of Wheel of Fortune.
• Jesse Waters of FOX "News" on homeless people:  "These are people who've failed at life and on their deathbed."  Speaking as one 9 1/2 years on the street in San Francisco and probably will be again at some point in the future, maybe:  Then it's in your best interests to kill us all the faster, you fascist cracker-ass punk bitch.
