ALERT: 'OutKick' founder and Fox News contributor Clay Travis torches the NFL for gouging their fans while violating the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961. "Most of your constituents are frustrated. They don't know how to find games, and they are having to pay far too much when they have the opportunity to actually watch those games. I don't know how many of you remember back in the day when you can have one remote control in your hand, and you can easily flip to any different game... They just want to be able to watch their favorite team and not have to struggle to do so." To watch all the NFL games in 2025 on streaming, you would have needed Sunday Ticket, Netflix, Peacock, Amazon Prime Video, ESPN Unlimited, and NFL , for a minimum price of $575, according to Fox News.

A bronze bust of Ryan White was unveiled down at IU today. White became the face of AIDS when he was kicked out of his Indiana high school for having it and successfully fought to return. He always wanted to go to IU but died of the disease in 1990. Now he's there.

A man jumped to his death from an Indianapolis parking garage this evening after police tried to talk him down. If you or someone you know is currently experiencing thoughts of suicide please call 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline
Jun 9
Despite officers' attempts to de-escalate the situation and bring the individual to safety, he went over the edge of the parking garage and sustained injuries consistent with a fall. Medics were already staged nearby and unfortunately pronounced him deceased on-scene. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the male's loved ones during this difficult time. The scene will be active for the next few hours as investigators process the scene.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - A federal appeals court ruled Monday that Alabama’s use of nitrogen gas to put prisoners to death needs more study of whether it violates a constitutional ban on cruel and unusual punishment, days before a scheduled execution by that method.

Yes, because SNL and 60 Minutes are basically the same thing
On #RTOvertime, @BillMahar scoffed at calling Scott Pelley “a national treasure.” Maher: “I just don’t think being a 60 Minutes correspondent is that hard. I don’t feel like Scott Pelley was a national treasure. Companies change hands all the time. I never liked him. Sorry, I just never did. Companies change hands. People bring in their own people, their new ownership. Just because something changes doesn’t mean – I feel like we see everything through such a partisan lens. ‘Oh my God, 60 Minutes has a new cast.’ So does Saturday Night Live.”

Oh?
While I’m being told that the Bears announcement on Hammond is “real”, i.e. not a leverage play, a league source told me that the Bears leaving the state is not a done deal. Per source, Indiana is in the lead right now, but “Illinois can still get back in the race,” granted the state has a lot of ground to make up after not passing legislation that would have insured the Bears property tax certainty.

This teenage suspect had never been arrested before and had never been charged with a crime. Mears called out the talking heads who capitalized on this case to assign blame even though they didn't have the facts.
