The plan: Instead of giving Knicks employees championship rings, use them as a lure to see who needs mandatory cybersecurity training

Sam Fuld was offered the A’s job as president of baseball operations but declined to take it and has withdrawn from consideration, sources tell ESPN. Fuld, who was previously GM of Philadelphia, will remain in his current role as president of business operations for the Phillies.

Victor Wembanyama was asked if he would ever sign a deal with a sports betting company: “Absolutely not. Honestly, I think it’s very sad to see some players promote it.”

Hearing that a number of members of the A's minor league staff were let go today. People in the organization seem reluctant to talk about it, but someone said it seems to have come from "the top" (wherever that is right now) and referred to it as a "purge."

I'm loving that the LA City Council is being scolded by elderly, low-income Chinatown tenants right now: "We work so hard for the majority of our lives, and to be able to peacefully have a place to sleep at night is something that is becoming increasingly more impossible."

Fisher got way more sell chants & still decided he cared more about a tax handout in Nevada than his family legacy in the Bay Area. He ignored us all to drag a thing people love through hell, out of spite. He told the fans “this has been worse for me, than it has been for you”
Arte Moreno got tired of the “sell the team” chants and it played a part in him selling the Angels, per @Ken_Rosenthal “We all know the atmosphere at the ballpark for Arte Moreno has not been good. I talked to someone (Wednesday) who said he had heard from Moreno that, yeah, the negative environment did affect him, and did kind of prompt him to do this now.”

Summer box office (domestic) finished 9.4% ahead of the pre-pandemic average, per FranchiseRe, and 26.6% ahead of last year. Year-to-date gross is now down just 7.2% from pre-pandemic levels. A pretty remarkable comeback.

The Raiders are trying to grab some more cash from the Nevada government before the A’s swoop in to ask for more $ again, now that Bally’s is officially broke. John Fisher & Mark Davis going tag team on Nevada’s underfunded public schools. Brutal.
When a $750 million stadium subsidy is not enough. The Raiders want another $75 million more in public dollars. LVSportsBiz has the story with a lede you don't want to miss: lvsportsbiz.com/2026/08/18/w… #nfl #stadium #LasVegas #vegas #Raiders

The A's divorce with David Forst was a firing, not a mutual split, says @Ken_Rosenthal. "Teams love their fancy language and making things look pretty, but this wasn't pretty."

So they banned Chinese electric vehicles in USA But they allowed Waymo to import them and use their cheaper electric cars for an exorbitant taxi service meanwhile the Americans don’t get to buy cheaper electric vehicles Peak capitalism
Just spotted upwards of 500 yes 500 Waymo Ojai today in Mesa, AZ These are produced by Chinese automaker Zeekr of the Geely holding group then retrofitted with Sensors by Magna I don’t know the exact number of cars just want to stress the magnitude of what I saw & the fact the lot went further than my eyes could see

Magneto n Xavier are genuinely one of the only people that don’t even need a recast, James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender are still perfect for the roles in age

Forst, who had been with the organization for 27 years, also had no interest in relocating to Las Vegas in two years.
David Forst, who was on the final year of his contract, is out as the Athletics GM. Dan Feinstein is the interim GM

Ho-lee SHIT. I didn't think they'd do it, but it was time. Beane/Forst regime lasted ~30 years. Incredibly successful! But, it's been clear for YEARS that it had run its course and a new set of eyes were needed #athletics
