I just read an article about Bronny James. His agent, Rich Paul, says he will not allow young James to sign a two-way contract after he is drafted. Seems a bit arrogant for a very iffy player. Is there any reason, other than his bloodline, why a team would even draft him? He is a medical risk, only ...

I think a lot of it for all those clowns is blind ambition. If Trump wins, there’s a non-zero chance that he doesn’t finish his term. Voilá. Someone who couldn’t get elected gets to be president.
