Time to fire up the news and see how great everything's goi- OH MY GOD.

That’s a lot of penguin bones.
A spokesperson for Paul Allen's estate tells me a report that Vulcan is keeping a 20% stake in the Blazers is "unequivocally false" and that once sale to Tom Dundon group closes in March, Jody Allen and Bert Kolde will have no remaining interest.

The sale is expected to close before the end of the 2025-26 NBA season.

This is a classic albeit exceedingly risky tactic — the “maybe they’ll think I’m simply looking downward if I raise my eyebrows while I nod off” gambit.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen it work.

Kathryn Bigelow really made a movie with a scene that implies Angel Reese might get nuked.

ESPN and Penn National have bailed on their ESPN Bet branding deal.

Penn is just way too behind the 8-ball to ever catch up as a serious player in the online sports betting space. You can't use content to market the betting app when content has been perpetually devalued over the last 20 years.

If there was a random small city in America that mandated that taxis had to be camel-powered, it would immediately become a must-visit tourist destination.

Like, if Victorville, California, had a notably large camel population, that'd be something to behold.

Feel terrible for all the Wall Street firms that mandated a return-to-office, only to have their most insufferable vest-wearers fulfill their pledge to leave the city if Mamdani won.

The number of 30-somethings talking about Mamdani at the Halloween party last weekend was astounding.

We live in Canada!
This feels significant

Seems like a not-so-great sign of the times that it’s November 4 and I just heard “All I Want for Christmas is You” in a public space before I saw a single person wearing a poppy.

But other than that, how was the hole, Mr. Hussein?

I can't get my head around Kash Patel seemingly making a detour to have dinner with Evander Kane in Vancouver while preparing to to arrest Chauncey Billups ...

Hey guys, just a heads up that anything I say from the point on is off the record.

Phew, guess I’m covered.
