Damn, I just saw the news from the Bulls: our legend Bob Love has passed away. He was the second Bull to have his number retired and the first in my life. Rest in Peace to Butterbean, #10!

I just found this. Thank you @pointlessexercise.com for the writeup, but especially the part at the end that I've highlighted here. That's the subtext of what I discussed with Dan and Matt: that everyone needs to think a bit more about how we get our information.

As a teacher, I appreciate someone trying to educate others without talking down to them. This was a masterclass from @readjack.bsky.social

Really good stuff by @readjack.bsky.social on how that Caleb Williams piece was severely lacking journalistic integrity. Shame on the media members who should know better but boosted it anyway.
