That was a month ago.
🚨 Cristiano Ronaldo has signed for Al-Nassr.
He's expected to be officially announced after Al-Nassr's game with Al-Khaleej. Al-Nassr have had the logistics in place for weeks. Ronaldo expected to live in Al Muhammadiyah.

Stop. Shakur might get there someday but by age 24, Floyd had already defended his title 6 times and beaten Genaro Hernández, Manfredy, and a 33-0 Corrales. Say what you want about Floyd once he hit 140+, but at 130-135 he avoided no one and obliterated everyone. Delete this post

My "favorite" family tree trade:
GSW trades Penny Hardaway + 3 No. 1s to ORL for Chris Webber.
GSW trades C-Webb to WASH for Tom Gugliotta + 3 No. 1s
GSW trades Googs to MIN for Donyell Marshall.
GSW trades Marshall to UTAH in 4-team deal for Adam Keefe.
Adam.
Keefe.

is desperate when Paul Gosar, who posted an anime video of him *MURDERING* AOC, crawls over to ask her if McCarthy is telling his own party the truth. In other words, even he trusts AOC's words over Qevin's.
On her floor convo with Rep. Gosar earlier, AOC tells me that McCarthy made claims within the GOP conf. that some Ds would walk away to lower the threshold. Gosar was asking AOC for clarification — would she walk away? “We would never do that,” AOC told me. Jeffries all the way.
