If you are a parent and your kid likes baseball, let them stay up tonight. Until the end. Seriously, nothing will happen in school tomorrow that matters at all. I can't remember anything from school. Neither can you. Photosynthesis or something? Baseball is what is important. ⚾️
Charlotte Hornets owner Michael Jordan’s official statement, via spokesperson, in wake of Donald Trump tweet referencing him and LeBron James: “I support LJ. He’s doing an amazing job for his community.”
I've decided to become fan of the
@SacramentoKings
. I am investing time and energy into learning about this team and franchise. I like how they have never won anything and are the only team in their city.
Any Kings fans? Educate me! Interested in anything you can share.
@StevePoliti
I’m confused. Aren’t you making the point as to why she *should* be there? They win gold every time and yet the sport hasn’t really grown substantially (however you want to define it) until her college/pro career.
@HOFprez
that's funny. one time i was covering a lacrosse game, and i knew absolutely nothing about the sport. i saw there was a stat called "ground balls." had no idea what it was and decided that i should just count the seconds the ball was rolling on the ground.
@mlombardiNFL
ok? and if the ravens hadn't had some nutty fumble on the 1-yard line returned for 99 yards, they could have lost to baltimore without lamar jackson. later on, they played patrick mahomes on one leg.
@PSchrags
i don't see it. this was the 8th pick. the packers were sort of getting tired of rodgers. cousins was just brought in. love was considered sort of a project. penix is more of a "play-now" rookie. baffling choice.
@JFeinsteinBooks
Black QB's have been drafted 1st overall on multiple occasions. They've been good, they've been bad, they've been in between. This is silly. It was a terrible pick, but to say their evaluation was impacted bc Mahomes and Watson aren't white is silly. Why did JAX take Fournette?
@rmayemsinger
It's all gibberish. It's just part of an identity (they legitimately take pride in it, it's in their core being) of just being difficult and doing the opposite of what you're "supposed" to do according to the big, bad government.
Thanks to my new followers and fellow fans of the
@SacramentoKings
. You all seem absolutely miserable and crazy - this is going to be perfect for me.
I need to get back to agonizing over which Kings hoodie to buy, and trying to understand why Bogdonovic was allowed to depart.
@Ian_OConnor
Really interesting.
Do you know if there was anything specific he was alluding to?
For 15+ years, I’ve been completely mystified why he went for 4th-13 rather than kick a 48-yd FG midway through the 3q. Inexplicable.
@BOOMbaca
that's an interesting point. would she really be sitting for 98% of the games if it was purely based on ability to contribute to the team, or are you being hyperbolic? (i don't know.)
@DineshDSouza
You need to immediately remove yourself from twitter and re-enroll in 7th grade and ask for any math teacher to give you some extra help every day of the week.
@RobbiJadeLew
It’s not embarrassing to just say omg I thought I had J3. It’s MUCH better than what actually was said, and would have been mostly believable.
@sam_amick
@chazzscogna
He's delusional. Criticism of his move has nothing to do w/the bottom of the league. It has to do with his particular situation: OKC -> GS.
@NYPost_Mets
@nypostsports
interesting - i think edwin diaz and jeurys familia deserve more responsibility for friday night's loss. gonna look up how they became mets, brb.
@SethDavisHoops
I don’t rule out anything, but are you referring to a school other than University of Indiana? Job has been open multiple times since he’s been in the NBA.
@CA_RN_CPN
@JoeNBC
yes, absolutely, but intelligently people who said they couldn't vote for trump but decided they couldn't vote for hilllary were absurd.
I see the Cardinals are "unretiring" No. 99 for J.J. Watt. I don't like this. What's the point of retiring a number? Oh it's retired unless someone comes and wants it? That's not how it should work. You retire a number, it's finished. That's the whole point of the honor. The end.
@rydunleavy
No. Things change. He got hurt again. He was bad. They have the 6th pick. It was a mistake. They’re only into him for one more year anyway.
@amyklobuchar
I'm so happy to see you two getting along. You are both amazing, have a ton to offer, and I'd love to see you both in huge rules in Biden administration, working together.
On the day of the Giants' Super Bowl parade, I was in the locker room as the players were getting ready to head to Manhattan. Brandon Jacobs accidentally handed me an invitation to a party he was hosting. Then he realized what he had done and was like, "oops, you're not invited."
All of the Eli talk has me watching the 2007 NFC Championship again. First play from scrimmage for the Giants with a wind chill of -23°... how would you like to see this tank coming right at you. 🤕
@FezzikSports
the past 5-6 years have been revealing. we used to think like 10% or so of the county was completely stupid, but it turned out it's approaching half the population.
@billbarnwell
the play that should have won the Super Bowl if not for the most indefensible coaching sequence in NFL history (far, far, far worse than Pete Carroll's blunder)
i kinda became a kings fan bc i thought it was interesting/amusing and i'd get in on the ground floor. didn't consider the possibility they were actually awesome.
@JordanRaanan
he was in charge! if he was sold, he should have taken him. otherwise it's meaningless, especially considering they didn't even have a QB.
@ETRAIN57
@CarmichaelDave
@SacramentoKings
It's hard to really answer that on twitter. I just have realized I truly DETEST the Knicks and I can't take it anymore. A disgrace in every way. I wanted a team with NO success, but what seemed like a cool fanbase. It honestly seemed like an obvious choice, and I'm excited.

forgiveness/kindness/"willing to help" etc. have nothing to do with anything related to paying a debt.
you either owe, or you don't.
is it really that murky a question?
@peter_king
i think you were the one who said last year in covid times we're just going to have to accept things might be a non-level playing field. you can push games back, and then the other team can be ravaged. not really sure what they can do ... ???
@analisbailey
this is horrifying. is there anything that can happen other than banning those accounts? this is legitimately insane and completely unacceptable.
@RepKinzinger
@jaketapper
In 2021, what exactly are the core values? I don't mean what you "want" them to be. I don't mean what they "used" to be. I'm asking ... what are they "NOW."
@martinonyc
bad idea????? after a decade of a ton of success, he finally wore out his welcome. it happens. he's absolutely the most-qualified guy out there and there isn't anyone who is remotely close.
Kings fans - What is the best podcast for information?
Please do not list more than two, with a brief description of what makes it good. A lot of you seem absolutely nuts and probably listen to about 20 of them, but please only tell me your two favorites.
@SteveSchmidtSES
@ChrisMurphyCT
Steve,
I really value your opinion.
Do you think Chris Murphy would be a good choice for the Democrats to nominate for President in 2024 (meaning electability in the general election), and do you think it's realistic for him to get the nomination initially?
Thanks.
