The Bloody Bacon & Cheese: Comfort Food And Booze Together At Last (video)

Pedestrian in transition, too little urgency and too many turnovers. The Colorado Rapids deserved every bit of their 4-1 loss at Sporting Kansas City. The nail in the coffin of SKC’s trio of goals summed the game up perfectly. The Rapids finally got out on a good-looking break in the 69th minute, but midfielder Cole Bassett ran out of time and options with his wingers breaking inward into SKC’s trap, leaving him triple-teamed and losing the ball. While Bassett expressed clear frustration with the lack of width, SKC swiftly counterattacked and substitute Erik Thommy scored his first of two goals on the night. The first three SKC goals came in some way off turnovers or mistakes by the Rapids.

Frontier Airlines flight attendants voted to authorize a strike over a business model change they say has resulted in less pay, the Association of Flight Attendants announced Wednesday. The vote was spurred by the Denver-based airline switching to a business model that includes more one-day trips and fewer multi-day trips for flight attendants, union leaders said in a news release. “Frontier flight attendants are struggling to earn a living because of management’s new ‘out-and-back’ model.

It’s beyond despicable that presidential candidate Donald Trump would deliberately endanger a community but it’s even worse that running mate J. D. Vance is the Ohio senator supposedly representing that community. Even worse than that, Sen. Vance has acknowledged he is spreading harmful lies and has insisted he is entitled to do so. The Trump/Vance lies that Haitian immigrants have been eating pets in Springfield, Ohio have spurred bomb threats against schools, government buildings and officials’ homes.

Open arms lead to broken hearts. The Avs held their media day Wednesday and if their power play is as on point as their messaging, the city should start planning a downtown parade in June. Val Nichushkin’s availability continues to hold this proud franchise hostage. When coach Jared Bednar and teammates addressed Nichushkin’s suspension in Stage 3 of the player assistance program, I wanted to ask them to blink twice to make sure they weren’t reading off a teleprompter. “We welcome him back with open arms,” Bednar said. “We welcome him back with open arms,” defenseman Devon Toews said. “We will welcome him back with the best of our abilities,” star Cale Makar said. So you are saying he’s welcome back? The Avs know they are a better team with Nichushkin.

It felt like déjà vu at media day for the Colorado Avalanche. A year ago, the most pressing questions for the Avs’ top players and coach Jared Bednar were about Valeri Nichushkin, after he left the team during its first-round playoff exit against the Seattle Kraken. Nichushkin isn’t alone among the key forwards who aren’t available at the start of this training camp, but he was yet again the key talking point Wednesday while he remains suspended from the team through at least mid-November. “The reports are that Val is doing well and he’s making progress,” Bednar said.

During a faux town hall discussion on Tuesday with Sarah Huckabee Sanders in Michigan, Trump described global warming as being positive for his properties near the ocean before ranting about nuclear war. Trump consistently says global warming will make more seafront properties which is delusional. Diminished Trump can't keep a singular idea in his head so he rambles from topic to topics that are unrelated. Trump began this rant by claiming world leaders wouldn't have respect for VP Harris and then in weirdo fashion transitioned into nuclear power and whatnot.
