Folsom: ‘Once in A Lifetime’ show
It’s always interesting seeing the former lead singers of bands I love play solo. I’ve seen several such artists in this setting, and there seems to be no set formula

#ItsIronic that Georgia is the only Power 4 conference champion that I never saw play basketball in the Georgia Dome (though I did see them play at Georgia Tech)!

I would have bet on Virginia to win by 20 if you could bet using credit cards in Missouri. Score one for the nanny state!

By "regular season" they mean the Mavs shut him down in the 2011 Finals!
For the first time in the regular season since Jan. 5, 2007, LeBron James failed to eclipse the double-digit mark.
His streak lasted 1,297 regular-season games and predates the announcement of the first iPhone.

After 1,297 games, LeBron James’ 10-point scoring streak ends with Lakers buzzer-beater
James scored just eight points in a 123-120 win over the Toronto Raptors, ending a regular-season run that began in January of 2007.

Folsom: Memorable visit to military memorial in St. Louis
We got to visit a monument in downtown St. Louis with a companion museum on Saturday, but one that does not get the same attention as the Gateway Arch.

This time last week I was in Madrid and, though my time there was short, I truly fell in love with it. When you're familiar with a place it's hard not to have a greater sense empathy for it and its people when horrible things like a Washington-Miami football game befall them.

I knew this guy when I was in Odessa. Good to see he's making his mark!
Meet Bubba Saulsbury, son of Odessa oil industry magnate Dick Saulsbury. Also friend to Kash Patel and JD Vance. This is who the Epstein felatio email is rumored to be referring to. Not Bill Clinton.

How insulting for Mitch Trubisky to do a commercial in a fast food drive-thru when the Bears drafted him over Patrick Mahomes, who brought actual Whataburger locations to Kansas City (along with other things). All Trubisky brought Chicago was heartburn!

I had no idea the Dallas Sidekicks legend is now with the Thorns!
Olivia Moultrie known for having one of the best sneaker collections, will add to it soon with her new contract extension #BAONPDX
Jeff Agoos: "Yes, quite a lot."
Liv: "There are always more shoes. There is no limit. Yes, there will be more and I hope to expand the collection always."
