Today's results are better understood as a left-center wave, not a woke one. Trump lost big but so did a lot of far left ideas. - Billionaire tax failed in CA - Transgender school sports restrictions passed in WA - Increased penalties for fentanyl dealing and even possession passed in CO - Wiener won over Chan in SF Nationwide the electoral mood was normie lib wine mom, not far left. A victory against the horseshoe.

Interesting times at the top of the NFL Draft share.inquirer.com/dP0kbf
Eagles' odds to get No. 1 pick in NFL draft are viable. Then what happens at QB? | David Murphy

Eagles' odds to get No. 1 pick in NFL draft are viable. Then what happens at QB? | David Murphy

It all starts with Jalen Hurts. He is the key variable. The more a team’s roster is in flux, the lesser its talent, the more the quarterback needs to make up the difference.

The NYC Marathon accepted just 1% of lottery applicants this year—a lower rate than getting into Harvard. Naturally, the post-pandemic running boom has been fabulous for race directors, but less so for professional runners, whose livelihood is getting pinched by runfluencers

Six games in, five of them wins, the Sixers have an identity. They have out-Knicksed the Knicks. They have out-Pacered the Pacers. They have done to the Cavaliers what good teams do to the Cavaliers.

Sixers played like grown ass men, led by the grownest ass off them...LeBron James' 20th point and ninth rebound come with 11.9 seconds left, a put back of a Tyrese Maxey miss that gives the Sixers a 96-91 lead over the Knicks

Tyrese Maxey and Anfernee Simons are a combined 17-for-29 from the field. The rest of the Sixers are a combined 17-for-42.

Tyrese Maxey dramatically runs to the sideline waving his arms not to challenge a VJ Edgecombe foul. First time i’ve ever seen that

Nearly seven minutes of Tyrese Maxey with four bench* guys (including Dean Wade. Sixers played Knicks even. Important stretch

Father Rob Hagan went to Villanova in part because it was an easy commute from Drexel Hill on the trolley and he could keep his job bartending at Bennigan’s. All these years later, Villanova’s trip to Rome this week is deeply personal and professional: inquirer.com/college-sports/…
Villanova basketball’s trip to Rome is personal and professional for the Rev. Rob Hagan

Hagan has been Villanova basketball’s team chaplain for more than two decades and known Pope Leo XIV for quite some time. The trip to Rome will be a “full circle” moment, he said.

Reality of NFL trade deadline is teams basically decide if they want a late-third-round pick this year instead of waiting for a comp pick next year. Anything higher than that, an average of two picks (1st/2nd) change hands each yr. share.inquirer.com/xNy7rb
As NFL trade deadline nears, Eagles should be watching Colts fire sale closely | David Murphy

The Eagles owe Nick Sirianni and his players more than the Colts are giving Shane Steichen and his locker room.
