Average rent in ATX is $1700+/mo.
After tax income is $38K if only offered the $45K rate. Meaning, the person taking this job from the richest athletic department in the USA would spend on average 53% of their income on rent alone.
Embarrassing. But hey, Hook ‘Em, right? 🤘 – at Franklin, WI

The NFL now remains the only major American sports league that has not officially partnered with a prediction market
The NBA has named Kalshi and Polymarket as its “preferred prediction market partners."
The NFL is now the biggest remaining U.S. men's league without a prediction market deal, as MLB, NHL, and MLS are all partnered with at least one.

Dolan will dump millions into building a surveillance state at MSG but not give the employees the ring they earned. Might have hung a banner but he killed(and has for a long time) the organizational culture.
They should get something for simply surviving under his employ.
The Knicks' assistant coaches did not receive their championship rings during Tuesday's ceremony, despite being handed ring boxes, according to league sources.
Many longtime employees at Madison Square Garden will not receive rings at all, per team sources.
Those employees got their hopes up in late September, when they were sent a fake championship ring offer as part of a phishing test.

This story is a bombshell. @elonmusk alone disabled Starlink for Ukraine, "a decision that sparked panic in Kyiv and confusion inside the Trump administration." wsj.com/world/ukraine-starli…

Sen. Susan Collins steered millions of dollars in government contracts to a shady defense contractor in exchange for $150,000 in Super PAC donations.
The alleged pay-for-play scheme drew an FBI corruption investigation, which was closed in 2025 after Trump took office.

The average family paid $833 more for housing since Trump took office.
Home prices have increased 36 months straight.
Mortgage rates are at almost 7%—highest level since Trump took office.
Housing director Bill Pulte lies his ass off: "The cost of a new home is in some cases 20%, 30% lower than it was under Biden ... President Trump has crushed inflation."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Pulte's claim on new home costs being lower in some cases aligns with Lennar net average selling prices declining ~25-30% from 2022 peaks via incentives and adjustments; Census medians show smaller recent changes.

These “advisers” should get canned from their respective campaigns.
Democrats need to show backbone here. Not discussing critical issues like AI’s destructiveness w/ voters + having declared stances for regulation/abolishment will only alienate the base they need in November.

The President said, “whoever wins AI, wins.” This assessment is wrong. The reality is that whoever “wins AI,” AI wins.
AI agents have already gone rogue. Highly capable frontier AI and artificial superintelligence will outsmart humans and go beyond human control. And at that point, it won’t matter whether you speak English or Mandarin. We’re all in danger.
We need a global AI treaty now.

Congress has worked so few hours this year that lawmakers wouldn't even meet the Medicaid work requirements they passed.

Republicans telling a bunch of billionaires to “self-police” and “self-regulate” their companies is why billionaires donate so much money to elect Republicans.
The corruption is literally killing us.

Good on Jalen, but it’s absolutely egregious in 2026 we have municipalities relying on charitable acts of its pro athletes to provide critical infrastructure.
The City of Philadelphia and SDP administrators should be embarrassed.
Jalen Hurts has donated $600,000 to install air conditioning at Philadelphia's Northeast High School.
The Eagles QB was named Philly's "Citizen of the Year" and has installed A/C at several other city schools too.

This would’ve been one of the biggest scandals in US history and immediately ended any previous presidency. Just another day
