Kobe alert!

It may be hard to believe, but the Lakers (the LA Lakers, not their G-League affiliate) have a Kobe in their starting lineup tonight.

Kobe Bufkin earned the call and is playing right now.

They're down 30 to the Spurs but Kobe just got signed to the big club through next season!
Friday morning G-League today! And I still kinda can’t get over that the star of the Lakers G-League team is a guy named Kobe Bufkin.

(Also no disrespect to his game. He scores about 27 a game and has 20 at halftime.)

Got to see the monks pass by as they walked through Arlington on their 2,300-mile Walk for Peace this afternoon.

This is near the end for them, as they will be in Washington tomorrow, before heading into Maryland for a bus back home to their monastery in Texas.

Maybe it’s not extreme.

Maybe we should follow their lead more.

They literally added Jason Myers so you can actually vote for the true MVP!

@ NFL get on Bluesky so I can yell at you for being cowards for not letting me vote for Jason Myers for MVP!

Sorry but I don’t like the Cadillac F1 livery. Way too Mercedes-like for my take.

Stefon Diggs? Quick to anger and throwing a punch at somebody?

The kickoff rule isn’t perfect but it actually is way better than the previous status quo.

The NFL doesn’t let you vote for rightful Super Bowl MVP Jason Myers and this is anti-kicker discrimination!

It's cool that they brought Mike Tyson on to tell us to stop eating processed foods and start eating ears.

The man best known for eating an ear just promoted healthy eating for some MAHA group.

Can’t make this stuff up.

There’s two types of people in this world: people who love Brandi Carlile, and people who don’t know enough about Brandi Carlile.

A lot of people are gonna be moving categories tonight.
