Pretty hilarious that the Cubs' 2025 highlight reel included Vidal Brujan, but not so much as a back-of-the-head shot of Kyle Tucker.

Pretty classy for the Cubs highest paid player by AAV in franchise history to respect that team leader Nico Hoerner already wears his traditional #2.

Like I'm sure he could have insisted on it, but this is an awesome gesture to his new teammates.
3B Alex Bregman will wear number 3. Last worn by 1B/DH Justin Turner in 2025. #Cubs

We applaud @governor.ny.gov for committing to exercise her state’s sovereign powers to check federal overreach.

All states can and should do the same to ensure that no one is above the law and that every American can seek justice whenever gov agents violate the People's constitutional rights.

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.
