LeBron James will announce his free agency decision today

Today could be the day. We got a lot of hours left in this day. But I hear that around the league. They're saying like, pretty strong. Today's the day LeBron James makes a decision.

The decision was not actually announced on the day of the Takies; he waited longer.

I expect LeBron James to wait until at least the weekend to make his decision

I still think he's gonna wait until at least the weekend. There was that thing on YouTube where the Miami Heat said they had a placeholder for a news conference... announcing LeBron James for next Monday.

LeBron did indeed wait through the weekend.

Anthony Kim is the comeback story of the year in all of sports

Anthony Kim... probably comeback story of the Year overall in all of sports. Coming back, quit golf, went to rehab, conquered his demons. Came back, won on the LIV tour.

Subjective ranking of 'comeback story' status, but based on real-world events in the 2026 timeline.

LeBron James is likely not returning to Cleveland because he would have already announced it if he was.

What this does tell me about about LeBron though. The fact that he hasn't announced it yet. Every day that goes by without an announcement makes me less inclined to think that it's Cleveland because he's waiting for something to make his decision. If his decision was go to Cleveland, then there's absolutely nothing holding him back from being like, I'm coming home... I think for the most part it's like, if it's Cleveland, he should have said it already.

LeBron James announced his free agency decision on July 24, 2026, the same day PFT Commenter made the take. He signed a two-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, not the Cleveland Cavaliers. This outcome aligns with PFT Commenter's prediction that LeBron was likely not returning to Cleveland because he would have already announced it if that were the case.

The Tesla-SpaceX Car Is a Lethal Public Weapon

I think we're going zero to 60 in like 0.8 seconds, which just feels like a lethal weapon for the public to have. I don't know how I feel about this. It's cool to see on a track. I don't know if it's gonna be cool to see on a highway.

This is a safety judgment about a proposed vehicle and is inherently evaluative.

Penny Hardaway's roster investment is a genius move

If Penny Hardaway has money, putting two to three million dollars in your roster—if your team does well, you could probably make millions more on your contract. It's actually a genius move. More guys should do it.

Whether this is a genius strategy is a subjective evaluation.
