Not bothered that much about the #Cubs loss today. We came up against a really good pitcher and had some tough luck today. Let's go sweep the #Rockies!

How does one enjoy the #NBA after watching the GOAT Michael Jordan? Never figured out why I should care much after watching him and the #Bulls.

This is classic! So funny!
29 YEARS AGO TODAY Steve Kerr “bailed Michael Jordan out AGAIN” & hit the game-winning shot in GM6 of the 1997 NBA Finals "Michael said, 'Phil, I don't feel real comfortable in these situations. Why don't we go to Steve?'"🤣

Congratulations to Texas Tech on becoming the biggest villain in college sports.

Congratulations yo the #WhiteSox and their fans for moving into first place last night. I will always be a #Cubs fan first, but I grew ip in an era where the two Chicago teams never played each other and I attended many Sox games growing up.

Wow...this is SO true. Thankful for all the blessings we have as a nation and as individuals.
This article was written by a 26 yr old college student by the name of Alyssa Ahlgren, who's in grad school for her MBA. What a GREAT perspecitve..👍🏽 My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us! I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around. I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it. Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose.These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought. We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!! Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ?? Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity." Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in. When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided. My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress. Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country. People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism. Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism. We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."

I was told there was some amazing NBA game tonight. Amazing and NBA some to be contradictory terms.

There is a whole lot to break down as to why almost everyone (PCA, Ben Brown, and a few others) are so bad all at once, especially compared to their projections. This feels unprecedented. #Cubs

Losing optimism for the #Cubs, but this type of stretch does not affect me the same way since 2016.

I think #Cubs fans in general are keeping the faith, but definitely not the ones on Twitter. 😂

Another disappointing (but fun) night at the ballpark. One thing I enjoy is meeting so many great #Cubs fans from all over. Go get ‘em tomorrow boys!

FYI — I have zero sympathy for Texas Tech. If you are willingly advocating for someone who broke the cardinal rule of competitive sports to be allowed to continue to compete, you should expect this to go badly for you.

This shows such an overall lack of competitiveness from LBJ compared with MJ.
When MJ was asked about LeBron James teaming up with Wade & Bosh in Miami: "There's no way, with hindsight, I would've ever called up Larry, called up Magic and said, 'Hey, look, let's get together and play on one team.' In all honesty, I was trying to beat those guys."
