Idk where the Seahawks found this Okada kid, but the fact that there's an Okada (the Rainmaker) playing in Seattle scratches my pro wrestling brain

Back in the land of reality, here's what one of the Black people whose home was smashed into during the apartment raid last week said about his Venezuelan neighbors: "They were cool people."

Mr. Jones, a U.S. citizen, was dragged out in handcuffs and held outside for hours.

Jones, who lives on the fourth floor, said most of his neighbors were Venezuelan and often took turns cleaning the hallway because the property owners did little to maintain it.

“They were cool people,” Jones said as he looked into his next door neighbor’s unit. “They didn’t speak a lick of English, but we used translator apps to talk to each other.”

Jones wondered what would happen to his neighbor’s young children.

How far under the cap floor are they?

John Hollinger @johnhollinger.bsky.social · 21d

Brooklyn getting to that cap floor $85,300 at a time

Michael Scotto @mikeascotto.bsky.social · 21d

The Brooklyn Nets signed D'Andre Davis to a partially guaranteed standard NBA contract, league sources told @hoopshypeofficial.bsky.social. Davis will earn $85,300 guaranteed. He's expected to be waived, and that money will count against the cap. Similar deal to David Muoka, who was also waived.

Once you realize that a pause is a symptom of not having an endgame, you understand why we just paused tariffs with China in response to the end of our earlier pause on tariffs with China, which we confirmed in earlier meetings after concern that our earlier pause with China might unpause.

Mercedes Mone is the first time a wrestler holding a bunch of different belts simultaneously has ever been treated by fans as anything other than incredibly cool, right?

Is it literally just racism and misogyny, or is there something else going on too? (It's probably mostly racism and misogyny.)

NEW — Video shared with me by a bystander shows Customs and Border Patrol violently arresting people yesterday outside a Home Depot in Van Nuys, CA. One man screams in agony as he’s handcuffed, while another is on the ground with two agents on top of him. The agents refuse to identify themselves.
