How do these no-name Youtubers get big name people on their channel? I see Austin Reaves is on a channel called Tequila at the Turn, which has 25K subscribers. How does a nothing channel like that get an NBA player like that? And I get that Reaves isn't a huge name, but he is a starter for one of the most famous sports teams in the world. That is a big name IMO. I understand Good Good or even Grant Horvat getting big names. Both of those channels have huge subscriber numbers. But a starting Laker on a 25K subscriber channel?

Shame that Tark isn't around to run the UNLV collective. Everyone got paid when he was there. I'm guessing the player backed out after the good start. $100K isn't much even for a program like UNLV.

The starting QB on a 3-0 team.

Why didn't have have it 3 months ago? Oh yeah, he was trying to play for Team USA. I would be pretty upset if I was the Clippers.

Face value is $750 for a single Ryder Cup ticket. My dad went to the US Open in the 80's when it was at Oakland Hills, the year Andy North won. I would love to know what those tickets cost.

Now, a private equity firm named Apollo is interested in Intel.

Intel Gains on Report That Qualcomm Made Takeover Approach Sort of interesting. I can't see the Feds allowing this to happen. And I don't understand why Qualcomm would want this to happen. Manufacturing chips is extremely difficult and Intel isn't very good at it. In fact, they currently out source some of their production to TSMC because Intel can't do it. Intel does have some interesting chip technology coming down the pipeline. Early benchmarks for their Lunar Lake chips look good, comparable to Snapdragon and even some of the Apple ARM stuff. But again, those chips were designed by Intel but manufactured by TSMC. Maybe Qualcomm wants to pick the good parts off the carcass and leave all the manufacturing garbage behind.

Amazon would dump their E-Commerce division in a heartbeat. They make most of their profit off of AWS anyway.

First episode of The Penguin was fantastic. Colin Farrell will win awards for how he is playing Oz.

Max should announce his community service will be starting a group to expand gay and women's rights in Saudi Arabia.

Clown show.

Pretty sure the stewards just gave Max community service for swearing.

Interest rates were fine. What a joke.

I'm listening.

People might wonder why Woj is doing that. I once read an article about Shams and it was a pretty terrible life that they lead. Shams said he is on his phone a good 18 hours a day. No wife, no girlfriend, no kids because he can't devote the time to them. He has a driver that takes him to work because he can't be off of his phone for the length of the commute. Terrible life.

Woj Bomb: Woj gone.

They are on an 8 race streak without a physical safety car being deployed.

It's the 2026 class. But AJ Dybantsa played Boozer last night.

Looks like he will be covering the Knicks for The Athletic.
