Brooklyn Meyer vs. Avery Koenen 1-on-1 is the good stuff
The #WNBA CBA negotiations are flying fast and furious now. Our @jacobmox.bsky.social breaks down the very latest, with fresh reporting from @classicjpow.bsky.social www.theixsports.com/wnba/pace-of...
Wrote on the WNBAβs revenue sharing breakthrough, what it does and doesnβt tell us about the leagueβs finances, and how big of a leap the next CBA will be on the rev share front, no matter the outcome. @theixsports.bsky.social
WNBA players are to receive combined $8 million in direct revenue sharing, plus $8 million added to the available pool for league marketing agreements.
Revenue sharing is now here, writes our @jacobmox.bsky.social. Exactly how it will work moving forward remains up in the air:

In today's HBCU notebook from @knoxrob1.bsky.social:
- A player-turned-coach-turned-player leads a surging Coppin State
- A record breaking 3-point barrage and an ecstatic crowd and broadcast
- Finding calm and clarity over 4,000 miles from home
And much more:
Every year that Princeton head coach Carla Berube adds another Ivy League title or NCAA Tournament appearance to her resume, external expectations grow for her to keep doing it. @jennhatfield.bsky.social explores how Berube has found success at each step of her coaching career.
The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.
The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.

Remember the incident where DHS claimed officers shot a guy because he attacked them with a snow shovel?
Yeah. It didn't happen. They shot him through the door of his own home. And then arrested him. And then lied about it. Again.
And they almost shot some kids in the process.
new: Minnesota Timberwolves chaplain and activist Matt Moberg FaceTimed me from an ICE blanketed parking lot about his empathy for Anthony Edwards, Wemby's provocative statement about the Spurs, and the value (if any) of athletes speaking out.
we ended early because ICE tried to arrest his mom.
my son is five, same age as Liam Ramos. you don't need to have a child the same age to be fucking horrified by the violence we are doing (and HAVE BEEN doing) upon immigrant children in this nation. but that he keeps asking for his spidey backpack is the kind of detail that rips my heart in two.
Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)
Once again, with the nation in turmoil, key Minnesota women's basketball figures like Cheryl Reeve and Rebekkah Brunson are speaking out. Our @jacobmox.bsky.social reports: #WNBA www.thenexthoops.com/wnba/minneso...
Hey, this Bovino thing is a pathetic attempt to make all these horrors the fault of one guy, and it would be a serious, serious crisis if people fell for it. ICE needs to be abolished, bc this - terror, murder - are what it exists for. Nothing else. This is just an attempt to mollify us. Stay angry
Normally donβt do this, but the Twin Cities are occupied and there are a lot of folks I know who are helping people with very acute needs. I know a lot of good folks out there have offered to help or want to know how they can help, so I may occasionally boost fundraisers for folk or causes I trust.
the nba postponed a game because the united states government is killing its citizens
Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump β 3 in House & 20 in Senate). Thatβs it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.
At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.
Witnesses are being taken to Whipple.
From a lawyer friend: βTheyβre trying to keep local PD and BCA from getting statements and confiscating any phones with video.β
All those people downtown yesterday, no ICE involvement, and not one incident. ICE shows up in a neighborhood and now another Minnesotan is dead. It's pretty obvious who the violent outside agitators are.
They were eventually allowed one phone call as a thanks for saving the agentβs life.
They used it to call their lawyer, who called their state representative, who ultimately got them released on the condition they tell people they were βtreated kindly.β
Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two donβt know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agentβs life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

Tens of thousands of demonstrators filling the streets with signs and banners
Demonstrators as far as the eye can see. Current status of the march in Downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota for Ice Out of Minnesota. They are turning onto 3rd Street from 5th Avenue.
Itβs -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing
