This week, Dan Patrick announced his eventual retirement plans, saying on his radio show that he plans to work four more years until calling it quits.
“This is a young man’s game,” Patrick said on Wednesday. “I’m the oldest guy doing this. And I enjoy doing it, but by the end of 2027, that’ll be it. You have my word, so plan accordingly.”
However, in the midst of the announcement, Patrick failed to clarify one major piece of information.

If you think Megan Rapinoe’s comments on transgender athletes are laughable, you’re not alone.
Speaking at FreedomFest 2023 in Memphis last week, former gymnastics champion Jennifer Sey couldn’t keep from chuckling after hearing Rapinoe’s stance on biological men in women’s sports.

“Show me all the trans people who are nefariously taking advantage of being trans in sports,” Rapinoe said.

Is there anything less American than murdering a bald eagle?
Well, Rodney Thomas — father of Indianapolis Colts safety Rodney Thomas II — is accused of doing just that.
A Pittsburgh federal grand jury indicted the elder Thomas this week under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. This law, enacted in 1940, prohibits anyone, without a permit issued by the Secretary of the Interior, from “taking” bald or golden eagles including their parts including feathers, nests or eggs.
