@dkpittsburghsports.com @dejankovacevic.bsky.social the Hounds look good tonight without Lilley, perhaps they’ve outgrown him?

@johnkrysinsky.bsky.social @mongoals.bsky.social hear anything on this?

Interesting Friday night news drop last night from the Riverhounds regarding their manager. Very vague statement (obviously) but have it from a source down there Bob Lilley may have been arrested. Wild times in the USL.

A screenshot of a text message that reads: “anyone have any police contacts?? I have two unconfirmed leads he may have been arrested.” Followed by a reply saying: “whaaaaaaaaaaaat.”

Accepted. I mean things considered, dangling a noble peace prize is a small force for good

Indeed. Shut it down until 2026

If you see this happen, we have a responsibility not to look away.

BREAKING: A federal judge finds that there is evidence Kilmar Abrego was VINDICTIVELY PROSECUTED. The judge GRANTS Abrego's motion for discovery and a hearing, and the government must now PROVE it did not vindictively prosecute Mr. Abrego. 1/

I think there’s a pretty good chance this administration also violates the 3rd amendment before this is all over. They are truly a record breaking operation

Cryptohat @cryptohat.bsky.social · 10d

But everything to lose by capitulating

Cryptohat @cryptohat.bsky.social · 10d

Correct. Also, why fund a government that sees half the country as its enemy. Shut it down, we’ll figure it out. We can reopen in 2026
