This was awesome! What a moment for Thomas Bidne at the State Tournament! From his teammates and coaches to the opposing team and coaches (well done Albany) to the excitement of the announcers. Truly awesome!!

I still can’t believe they let Brandon Ingram (from the east) replace Steph Curry in the All-Star instead of Randle. Makes 0 sense. NBA should be ashamed…

While Jamaica is no stranger to tropical storms, principal director at the Meteorological Service of Jamaica (Met Service) Evan Thompson has warned that the looming Hurricane Melissa could hit the island with greater effect than Jamaicans have seen for decades. Addressing a special media briefing at Jamaica House on Saturday, Thompson confirmed that Jamaica should be seeing the worst of Melissa, starting today, after some sections of the island experienced storm force wind and rain last night. jamaicaobserver.com/2025/10/…
