Silver fully supported Sarver’s move to sell the Suns and Mercury. After an unforgivable misdemeanor from Sarver, the NBA now looks at him in a different light. It’s probably best for the league that Sarver steps down to avoid any potential conflicts with players and the Phoenix community.

Lately they’ve been hawking everything from phone service to low-fat cookies. Not all their attempts have been memorable. But some marketers are cashing in with advertisements-cum-soap-operas that attract viewers more effectively than a talking head ever could. Let’s face it, says Advertising Age columnist Bob Garfield: “People like these stupid little melodramas, meager as the stories may be....

But after Irwin’s death, business went on as usual at “Stingray City” in the Cayman Islands, a popular locale where rays are baited in the shallows for tourists to snorkel with. “The day of [his death] there were a lot of questions,” says Stephen Broadbelt, whose company runs tours to the Cayman site. “[But] we haven’t had any cancellations.” Family-oriented outfits, like Anheuser-Busch’s Discovery Cove park in Orlando, offer swims with rays that have had their barbs trimmed, keeping the spookiness but eliminating the risk of stings....

He had homered in the leadoff spot twice in a doubleheader the day before, so even Acuna wondered if it could happen again. “I wasn’t sure I’d be able to hit another home run like that,” he said through a translator. “At first I laughed a lot, but then I got nervous again.” He didn’t stay nervous for long. Acuna became the youngest player in major league history to homer in five straight games, hitting a leadoff shot on the first pitch and adding a three-run long ball in the seventh inning to help the surging Atlanta Braves beat the Miami Marlins 10-6....

“When I saw my colleagues speak, it feels like it’s in the Nineteen Eighty-Four novel or something you see out of North Korea, where it’s like we’re just going to state whatever we want the reality to be,” Kinzinger said in a Friday appearance on ABC’s The View. “I was there on January 6. This was a real insurrection,” he added. “This was an insurrection of people that thought they were doing Trump’s bidding at the behest of Trump, not just on that day, but on days leading that up to that with the narrative of a stolen election....
