A War Eagle world record
Jun 11
Auburn’s Ja’Kobe Tharp just ran 12.75 to break the 110m hurdles world record in the NCAA PRELIMS.
Aries Merritt’s prior record of 12.80 had stood for almost 14 years.
He’s still only 20 years old.

The World Cup begins tomorrow, and many will watch the matches. Soccer reminds us of something we must not forget: life is not a race to show off on our own, but a path we learn to walk together. Anyone who does not know how to pass the ball, even if they have talent, has not yet understood the game. Anyone who does not know how to live with and for others has not yet understood life. #ApostolicJourney

A year out from the Women’s World Cup in Brazil, the teams split a two-game series. It included this incredibly brutal 1-0 U.S. win Tuesday night in Fortaleza that included *8* red cards for Brazil.

I covered the Knicks for two years when I first moved to NYC. Went to almost every game home and away. What I’ll say about Knicks fans is they were loud and locked in every night, even when the team didn’t deserve it. Those fans prayed for nights like tonight, and they deserve it

Indiana Fever star Aliyah Boston had an $80,000 salary last season. This season, it's almost $1.6 million.
I asked her about how she's investing and spending her $6.3 million contract -- and why she still drives a Buick:

The last time Mondo Duplantis lost a pole vault competition was July 21, 2023.
Back then:
• We were still using the iPhone 14
• Twitter had been "X" for exactly 2 days
• Barbie and Oppenheimer were opening that exact weekend
• Taylor Swift's Eras Tour was still in its first U.S. leg
• Victor Wembanyama had not played an NBA game
• Lionel Messi had just been introduced by Inter Miami CF
• Shohei Ohtani was still an Angel

DETHRONED IN STOCKHOLM 😱
Mondo Duplantis 🇸🇪 loses his first pole vault competition in nearly three years, as he’s unable to clear 6.00m and 6.05m after passing 5.90m, leaving the door open for Kurtis Marschall 🇦🇺 to claim the #StockholmDL victory.
Marschall improves to 6-45 against Duplantis head-to-head. The Australian was also ahead of Mondo in his last loss before this, finishing third to Mondo’s fourth in Monaco 2023.
