So many amazing stories from these children and families. While there isn't a Space program in Mexico, that doesn't stop these children from dreaming, studying and reaching for the stars.

The US doesn't "owe" anyone anything. Even Americans. You are entitled to nothing, you have the freedom to pursue everything And you can achieve anything. That's what the U.S. is. Not surprised that he doesn't understand that.

Absolutely remarkable. Celina QB Parker Wynk walks on senior night with his fellow Bulldogs and family, just over a month after suffering a spinal injury on this very field. What an emotional moment for him, his family and entire Celina community. Welcome home No. 8 💚

Kid is so young he doesn't even care....get him a cotton candy and he'd be happy. The adults are the ones making a big deal of it. There are instances where adults take the ball from kids who brought there gloves etc....this is not one of those. Move on people.

In a timeline filled with a lot of vitriol. Here is something everyone can cheer for :)
Ivy is a 4-year-old Steelers fan who brought her Terrible Towel to every cancer treatment. She is a cancer survivor in remission, now.

Braiden Bell, through counsel, has expressed no ill will towards KGW (the station that discovered the tweets) and believes those individuals involved should not lose their jobs.
Braiden Bell — the play-by-play announcer the Portland Trail Blazers hired and fired on the same day after being notified of derogatory tweets he posted as a team — has hired counsel and is asking for reinstatement.

Have you guys "recalled" the people responsible for digging through 14 years of tweets to find some mildy offensive things that got a man fired for things he posted as a 15 year old kid? 🤡

KGW news department is under investigation by their parent company for not following journalistic standards. The “debate” is over the two hack journalists, not the fellow who was fired. Most people believe Bell was wrongly terminated by the Blazers. People are now finding out about the cowards the corporate media hides in plain sight. It’s time to remove all of them.

Absolutely pathetic that you guys keep taking victory laps over this "reporting." Ruining a man's life over tweets posted when he was 15 is not the "W" you think it is.
KGW reporter @devonhaskins found the tweets this afternoon. We were in the process of reporting our story when the Blazers sent us a statement that they fired Bell.

In October. KGW news took the time to dig through over a decade of a person's tweets. Find some mildly offensive posts by a then 15 year old kid, then trumpet it like they'd broken some major story and got the now nearly 30 year old man fired from a dream job.

Indiana BLASTED everyone last year with 3 stars... Won't be long before boosters realize kids hungry to prove themselves and that have played together for more than a year, is a better recipe than hired guns. They should get a piece of the pie, but this was never sustainable.

Journalism is dead. It has become leftist activism writ large. But, this development is so rich. @devonhaskins and @jtierney6 are the hacks in question. Are “news” organizations going to grow their spines back? thedesk.net/2026/10/tegna-in…

This news director made a story of mildly offensive posts from someone who was 14-15 years old at the time in order to get him fired more than a decade later. THIS is the person who should be shamed and canceled. THIS is the person who should lose his job because he has demonstrated he is a vindictive weasel with no news judgment.

Unfortunately it has come to light that the zucchini may have called one of the other vegetables a cumquat during its early growth. We are working hard to reverse this decision.

There should be a fine when someone uses the word "literally" wrong. We could literally start an education program for literally underprivileged school systems and literally call it "Literally Making Kids Smarter"

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Portland Trailblazers have a history of employing players who used racial slurs while employed by them and have hired players with previous violent felony sex convictions. They do not have zero tolerance for racist or sexist comments. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darius_Mi… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruben_Pat…

Yes. The game goes on. They tied it to the save act, election stuff they knew was a non starter for Dems. Intentional BY BOTH parties. Rs can say they tried to pass it. Ds can say they "would've" but it had voter ID tacked on Rinse repeat. Uniparty. Enjoy the show.
