AMAZING VIDEO outside Stephen Colbert theater. A chalk message on Broadway in front of the theater, praising Colbert and criticizing President Trump and CBS is washed away. #StephenColbert

Someone used chalk on Broadway in front of the Ed Sullivan Theater to praise Stephen Colbert and attack CBS and President Trump. Someone was told to remove it. #StephenColbert.

I am a HUGE #BobbyDarin fan. Today is the 90th anniversary pf his birth. This is such a nice duet featuring Darin and Connie Francis from July 1, 1962 on the Ed Sullivan show. (I know you were his friend @NancySinatra. Hope you enjoy too.)

This one hurts. Jason Collins was a pioneer. He had courage like you've never seen. He was an incredible teammate. And having him in Brooklyn at the start of my coaching journey meant so much. Those who knew him were blessed to call him a friend. You are already missed my brother. Rest in power. 💔

DECISION TIME - @KingJames says he still loves basketball and can't say if he still loves the "process" of playing basketball - of things like showing up 5 hours before each game. That along with talks with his family will determine if he plays again. It will take time he adds.

So now the speculation begins about @KingJames future with @Lakers. Boy it sure didn't take Bill Plashke long to give his opinion. Only minutes after the Lakers were eliminated, he gave his definitive view.

He begins -
"Last call, LeBron.
You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.
It’s time for the Lakers to turn out the lights on the greatest player in NBA history and begin forging a new future without his stultifying aura and suffocating presence."

It was just him and me and his assistant. Ted listened and smiled and repeatedly laughed out loud. There was no demand to give him the tape, not even a hint that he wanted to take it with him. When it was over he thanked me, said "do with it what you want," and left. (MORE)

So I made a copy and went to the downtown L.A. Hilton Hotel where I played it for him. Much to my surprise (maybe shock) he did ONLY want to hear it. He stood for nearly 10 minutes in a small conference room at the hotel. (MORE)

The most outrageous - "If he (Kuhn) doesn't kill me, I'll him." But Ted was drunk was enjoying venting. The next morning I got a call from one of his assistants. "Ted wants to hear the tape," I was told. I was sure he would want the cassette and take it away. (MORE)
