Hey @ncaa.bsky.social Your D3 women’s hockey semi stream has lots of static and no commentary.

Buccigross is good at reading things people hand him.

Why would he need a background check if he was the associate head coach? Wouldn’t he have been checked for that job? Or are underlings held to lower standards?

May Named Head Coach of Gopher Women's Hockey - University of Minnesota Athletics May has served as Associate Head Coach of the program for the last three seasons

Announcing your new coach in the middle of the National Championship is a wild choice but Minnesota has hired Greg "Boom" May as head coach. He has been the Associate Head Coach for the Minnesota women's team since 2023.

And it’s well-known now too that research on-campus at NIH is being slowly choked to death.

Scientists are leaving and not being replaced, lecture visits blocked, people are spending more and more time not on science but on fruitless paperwork seemingly created to stop progress.

I wish! We’ve had fairly heavy rain much of the day.

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

I’m waiting for the whole crew to be brought up to The Hague.

Shireen is always a must read (and now must listen on the return of @burnitalldownpod.com!) when it comes to discussing big issues in sports.

The mono hockey culture of not rocking the boat extends to media coverage, and as someone covering hockey I think about HOW to discuss things all the time.

I would love one of the new @togethxr.bsky.social Everyone Watches Women’s Hockey long-sleeved tees, but yikes, $65?? That’s way more than I’m willing to spend.

Pope Leo Will Spend July 4 Visiting Migrant Crossing Island Pope Leo has spoken out against the treatment of migrants in the United States several times over the last year.

Hey @nbcolympics.bsky.social If our little D3 school can put together a broadcast team that’s all women for their hockey broadcasts, why can’t you? Shoutout to @sunyoswego.bsky.social and WTOP for doing what a big national broadcaster can’t.

Unreal press conference strategy from new IOC president Kirsty Coventry where she repeatedly turns to her PR team off stage and personally blames them for not making her aware of various Olympics controversies, saying that “maybe someone needs to be dismissed”
