Conservation curmudgeon by day. Mostly here for NOLA, Pelicans, COYS, and avoiding responsibilities. Thoughts are, unfortunately, my own.

I'm not sure what I find more distressing a week before the election, cynics who are already writing off a Democratic majority doing the hard work to stem the rising fascism, or those Democrats preemptively confirming that the cynics are absolutely correct.

Had been thinking about this. It's not just that the Pelicans are losing. It's that they are losing to the other losers.

Pelicans opponents are 1-7 vs the rest of the NBA, including losses vs the former winless Bucks and Warriors. Sell the team and fire everyone.

The Heat are, as predicted, a mess. No depth on that roster.

BREAKING: Game 6 of the WNBA Finals will be held Thursday at 12:30pm ET at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena, sources told ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne. It will be a double-header with the Atlanta Hawks’ game, which will be moved to 8pm.

Honestly, they should move the start of the NBA season back so it doesn't conflict with the WNBA Finals and it would also give us all something to watch over the summer.

Brazil did their part.

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva came from behind to win Brazil’s runoff election, halting a right-wing wave sweeping Latin America and defying predictions that the 80-year-old political veteran had finally reached the end of his extraordinary career. bloom.bg/4BsvV24 📷: Maira Erlich/Bloomberg

Yeah but I'm sure Gayle and all the political elites had a great time in France, so that's really all that matters.

So we gave BP a $23m discount on the DWH payments, which means the next thing to watch is what the LA TIG shorts in its allocation of restoration funding.
