Adam Schefter uses specific character limits to bait clicks in notifications
I saw his post about a trade. It said Jalen Ramsey has been traded from the Miami Dolphins to, and then it was the...dot dot dot. It cut off right there. I think that Schefter knows exactly how many characters to use to make people actually click through and look at his tweet instead of just looking at the notification. I think that he's that good.

NBA free agency has started and it's a dud. I'm gonna say it right now. It's a dud.
The NBA should rename the 'Second Apron' to 'Prison' to make it easier to understand
They gotta get rid of the apron word. I'm so sick of it. If they just called it jail and prison, I think it would make a lot more sense because that's really what it is. The second apron is prison. They basically, for people who don't understand what they've done with the salary cap... they restrict you. They put you in prison.
The NBA should have a random one-hour window where the salary cap is turned off completely

England was the much better team, but Erling Haaland is a one-man squad for Norway
England was a much, much better team. But... that guy that didn't pass the ball to Erling Haaland, give me a break. Haaland, you are a one man team and that's okay.
The World Cup being expanded to 64 teams is just a monetization play by Gianni Infantino
He wanted to turn it into American sports and he wanted to use this World Cup to learn how we're able to monetize every single facet of our sports. And the fact that it was somebody whispered like, 'Hey, you know, the NCAA tournament they used to do 64, everybody loved that bracket.' He thought about that and he was like, 'that's a great idea. I think I will, I'll try to do that.'
