I turned on Liberty/New Mexico State and of course the Flames were able to finish because I was watching.

Trump claims ICE’s reign of terror in Chicago is targeting the “worst of the worst.”

But out of the 1,000 undocumented immigrants that have swept up, the agency has only cited 10 men with a criminal background.

Don’t believe his lies for a second.

Trump says migrants drive violent crime in Illinois. But ICE can’t find many violent criminals.

Masked ICE agents and other federal forces showed up in Chicago to go after gangsters. Instead, they keep catching people who are just living their lives.

After about 15 minutes of walking, I've made it to my seat inside Hancock Whitney Stadium for Tuesday Night Football! Just like last time, Arkansas State is here. @redditcfb.com @sickoscommittee.org

Ben S | Chalk Talk Host @bensla.bsky.social · 22h

No, that's got 30 more minutes, thankfully (the walk from the lot to the stadium is 1 mile, ughhhhh)

Didn't even have men's basketball until 2012 when it became coed! They once beat Delaware State.

I have become intimately familiar with so many of these teams over the years. Justice is new, though, as in this is their first season ever.

I wonder how BMC reacted to the show. They probably sold more merch by sheer accident.

I saw them play baseball against Loyola (NO) this season.

Such as which? I'm just curious to see the holes in your knowledge since I've heard of every single one of these schools.

Ben S | Chalk Talk Host @bensla.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, they are an NAIA school. Members of The Sun Conference (TSC).
