Really was a beautiful weekend here.
New York City has over 2.9 million on-street parking spaces, but motorists always want more. There wasn't enough space to push a tandem stroller past the illegally parked van, so this caregiver was forced to cross the street.
My best friend just lost his brother last week. Now his sister in law and teenage niece need help for her education as she readies for college. If you can, please consider donating knowing every penny is helping a grieving child in need. Code: T45-U69 ugift529.com/home.html
BREAKING: The Bears plan for new stadium includes $4.6 billion price tag, with about half of it coming from the taxpayers. @chicagotribune scoop chicagotribune.com/2024/04/23/ske…

A statement from @FCASorg Founder Robert Kraft.
When you post a newsworthy video of a collapsed roof and you get a “cease and desist” @instagram message. 🤣🤣😳 “We are writing to you on behalf of Cadillac of South San Francisco to address the video you recently posted on social media featuring our business. It has come to…
Just in: The feds are threatening to sue NYC if city vehicles do not stop parking on sidewalks and crosswalks in ways that "impede the access of people with disabilities to pedestrian pathways," if you want to talk about an actual ADA lawsuit. PDF letter: justice.gov/d9/2024-04/let…
This is so, so welcome. Cheers to the feds. It was heartbreaking in @mjenkins's final weeks, when she was wheelchair bound, to navigate our neighborhood around @NYPDnews vehicles whose owners places their own convenience above Mandy's right to the sidewalk.
What a dumb thing to be mad about. The WNBA investing in its staff is a GOOD THING that will, in the long run, help Caitlin Clark make WAY more money. That is a very reasonable, even underpaid, salary for NYC-based mid-senior level role. Stop farming for clicks, everyone.

4-minute zoom call and adios: How the National Cycling League abruptly ended. More details of how dozen of riders and staff are stranded without jobs following a brief, one-way phone call Monday after the NCL ceased operations 'effectively immediately.' bit.ly/3U2QYU4

I am honored and, frankly, speechless to be the first-ever What's Up in the history of @richarddeitsch's podcast. This is an exact quote from RD: "This guy’s profile has soared since he left SBJ." podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/and…
Candace Parker says "anytime the ball is bouncing, I’m willing to cover it." For @SBJ, I spoke with the WNBA star about her broadcasting career, the future of women's hoops, and how she's still blown away working alongside her heroes sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/2024/…
AM RT Salesforce is out as an LA28 sponsor after the CRM company and organizing committee "amicably decided" to part ways. My story for @SBJ. sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/2024/…
News: @Applebees buys NFL sponsorship rights, becomes the league’s official grill and bar. It’s the NFL’s first casual dining sponsor since IHOP in ‘09. sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/2024/…
Was curious about WNBA team valuations & read that Mark Davis bought the Aces for a reported $2 million in 2021. Who sold for that cheap, I wondered. What idiot misread sports trends that badly, what rube failed to see the imminent women’s sports boom? And I gotta say: lmao

What’s an HBO series (that’s not The Wire, The Sopranos or GOT) that y’all would recommend?
Don’t bandit races. It’s an insult to everyone who paid. And for those who say it’s a public street, it’s not when it’s blocked off. It’s like hoping the fence of a festival to avoid the ticket office and then yell “When there’s no festival it’s free!”
I just ran 13.1 miles for the Brooklyn half marathon at a 7.43 minute pace. I didn’t walk at all. I cried during a lot of it. I went to bed at 10 PM. I didn’t sign up for this race. I just asked the security where it started and where it ended and jumped in. No one watched me…
@HCLPO When it's impossible to know whether you're honestly this stupid, or simply think your target audience is this stupid, something has gone awry
This subtle reframing of “parks illegally on the sidewalk” as “blocks pedestrians” is entirely intended to allow some sidewalk parking. It’s bad because it’s illegal. Period. Regardless of anything.
"Any vehicle that blocks the path of a pedestrian ... that is unacceptable & it's extremely unacceptable when it is a public servant's vehicle. It is a matter that we take seriously, & we will address." ~ Meera Joshi @MeeraCJoshi NYC Deputy Mayor nyc.gov/office-of-the-…

@NYPD114Pct Is it true that in NY if you pretentd to have anything to do with the NYPD - even if is just the words NYPD printed out at home on a sheet of paper and placed on the dashboard - you can park where ever you want and never get a ticket? I have an inkjet printer. Am i above the law?
The New York Times called the Premier League the world's richest sports league in a story today on Luton. The data doesn't back that up. Total team revenue for most recent seasons: 🏈 NFL: $18.7B ⚾️ MLB: $11.8B 🏀 NBA: $10.9B ⚽️ EPL: $7.5B 🏒 NHL: $6.8B
@mu2myoc Applicant is right. Unless you offered to compensate for that 90 minutes. He has no idea how many applicants remain in the process. He probably has interviews with other businesses. Effort vs reward definitely not there for this. Good for him.

HOLY SHIT an actual ADA COMPLIANCE DEMAND LETTER from the U.S. Attorney’s Office I have been wondering who would have standing to sue the cops for parking on the sidewalk but the SDNY definitely does lolllll

What a dumb thing to be mad about. The WNBA investing in its staff is a GOOD THING that will, in the long run, help Caitlin Clark make WAY more money. That is a very reasonable, even underpaid, salary for NYC-based mid-senior level role. Stop farming for clicks, everyone.
The WNBA is currently hiring for an Events Lead The annual salary is nearly double what Caitlin Clark will make over the next two seasons
This exchange yesterday over a proposed bipartisan housing bill that would be funded by ending a state tax break for landlords cracked me up. bizjournals.com/cincinnati/new…
I'm sure the Fever has been hoping he would cover their games and press conferences for years. He was trying to establish *himself* as the big deal in that exchange. That's part of what's so icky about it -- the patronizing arrogance that he displayed. "*I'm* happy you're heere."
@Buffalogal I agree but the unfortunate truth of it is the TV deal for the WNBA is only $60 million. It does expire in 2025 and with the momentum that the league currently has it should be a much better deal the next time around which will raise salaries.
