My Dad playing golf with Willie Mays at Doral in the 1970s. Happy Father’s Day. Miss talking with you every single day.
JC @Giants are not a good enough team that they can leave points on the field like that. 2 missed FGs. Come on.

🔊 In a new @CSIS analysis, @VictorDCha and @AndySauLim write how North Korea has not slowed its missile-testing spree amid President Trump’s calls for summitry with his “friend” Kim Jong-un, as well as his observation that Kim has been “unthreatening and respectful.”

This means JJ is QB1 on Sunday.
John Harbaugh on who his #Giants starting QB will be this week: "We're working through that now, honing in on a decision." Says he will make the decision based on "all the things that help us win."
On the night of game 5, walking around the City I saw many happy people wearing their new Brunson\Kat jerseys. But the people who were crying were the ones wearing old Stat, Melo, King, Sprewell jerseys. Fans since before the 73 team, we went thru all the lean years, deflated expectations, losses. Congrats @nyknicks
JJ is starting against the Texans after that 4th quarter. More mobile. Could not be more INT-prone than Jameis. @Giants @jjmccarthyy18

Giants running backs: 8 carries for 9 yards. (No carries for Cam Skattebo). Saints have one of the league's worst run defenses. This run game is broken.

President Trump cut short military drills between the US and South Korea this week, saying that they sent the wrong signal to the "unthreatening and respectful" North Korea. Is Trump throwing over one longtime US ally to court a rogue state ... again? I discussed with @VictorDCha:

The conventional policy wisdom is that President Trump’s enthusiasm for reengagement with North Korea is not shared by Kim Jong-un. But @VictorDCha argues that a unique set of drivers, including North Korean revisionism, could spur a renewal of diplomacy.

📌 The Impossible State | What is North Korea learning from Russia's war in Ukraine?
Last week, @csis_ai Kateryna Bondar and @MansfieldFDN @BruceKlingner joined @CSIS @VictorDCha to discuss the lessons North Korea is taking away from its support of Russia's war effort.
As Bondar said during the episode, "what cannot be easily replicated or bought for money is battlefield experience.”

NYC lit up in @nyknicks colors. Love this shot. NBA Champs 2026. I was in junior high JHS 141 in the Bronx when New Yorkers could last celebrate a championship.
