Just a reminder for this week's happenings in college athletics. - Big 12 board meeting on Monday - Wed CFP meeting. Media rights info will be provided. Meeting is in Denver. Thus, we will have a good feel if 24 will happen or not. - Thursday Cantwell and Cruz bill markup

Внаслідок російського обстрілу, який відбувається зараз, вночі 15 червня, горить дах одного з найбільш святих місць християнського світу - Успенського собору Печерської лаври у Києві. Просимо про молитву за врятування святині від знищення. Черговий російський злочин проти людяності, проти історії, проти християнства. Що ще повинен зробити кремлівський антихрист, аби світ усвідомив, що слід рішуче діяти, аби російський терор проти України і самих принципів миру припинився? Пресвятая Богодице, зупини ірода!

You do need rules. You don't have a functional sport without rules. The biggest problem is the injuctions more than anything else. The national approach no longer works, and if there is no DC bill that the Big Ten/SEC can live with, then it's off to conference-based rules/gov

California is a case study in how a rich society can spend more and more while producing less and less of what its ordinary citizens need. The paradox of California today is a successful economy attached to a failing model of governance. Well said @FareedZakaria.

While a “cooling off period” makes good sense, after Ken Paxton’s TX AG aggressive letter during a contentious election cycle, the other AGs will not cool off. OK AG and others are also running. The candidates are incentivized to raise the burner and cook Paxton.

Epic pitching performance in Chicago rewarded by White Sox fans. Respect for Yamamoto’s performance is high.

Really? The reporting by Wetzel in the NCAA accusations against USC totally lacked balance. The facts were not laid out and it literally took over a decade for the real info to come out publicly from Reggie Bush. The poor conduct at NCAA COI has not been subject of coverage

The most disruptive idea in American medicine is still a physician who owns his own work. Yesterday I joined Grant Zarzour, MD and Paul Slosar, MD at Becker’s to talk physician entrepreneurship. Our case was simple. An independent practice with a real balance sheet can deliver higher quality at a lower price than the hospital-owned or PE-backed practice across the street. Obvious, on its face. Instead, it remains contrarian. Healthcare spent 30 years separating physicians from ownership, capital, and control. Then it acted surprised when prices rose, quality flattened, and doctors burned out. Physician ownership is not nostalgia. It is the threat.

Doctors don't get paid for writing a particular prescription—in fact, that would be illegal. Influencers get paid when you buy their peptides. Yet this is rarely discussed, as if physicians are the only ones with potential conflicts of interest. That's BEYOND baffling! Hate to break it to you: your favorite influencer never took a Hippocratic oath.

Would like to see similar “day in the life” video for Pete Hegseth 🤣👀📺🇺🇸🦅

大谷翔平選手と村上宗隆選手がイチャイチャ🤣 離れていてもモーションで会話を繰り広げるw 大谷「挨拶に来てないぞ？」 村上「そんなことより時間守ってください」

Hilarious Japanese non-verbal communication :)

Such clinical medical studies are called for in the context or major diagnoses in specific populations, but gambling addiction is so rarely documented in professional and NCAA athletes that it would be impossible to run such a study (2/3)

Well so much for HIPAA!!! HIPAA is a U.S. federal law that protects patient health information and ensures privacy, security, and access rights for individuals

For folks following the discussion- US Bill of Rights 1791 10th Amendment Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled.

Feeling sorry for Kaedin Robinson of UCLA and DJ Wingfield of USC, both of whom were denied their year of eligibility by NCAA. Makes me wonder why the Texas Tech Sorsby case and the Clemson Smith case could prevail in those local courts while the Southern California courts denied

No. The bill hasn't even gotten out of committee. You can't claim this until you have a vote in the chamber and even then the bill's language is subject to change in the other chamber's processes. Even after passage in the other chamber, the reconciliation language is critical.
