Fake news? Maybe, but it isn’t as one-sided as folks on the right would like to think, and there seems to be a lot more than just the news that’s phony. Nobody seems to use it for more advantage than the man who made the term famous. Donald Trump started it all in 2016 with …
If there’s one sport that seems to ask the most of its participants in terms of honor, at least at the professional level, it’s golf. It’s a sport where it would be very easy to cheat by moving your ball even an inch or so — improving your lie — and turning a terrible shot …
Today is Easter, the holiest day of the Christian religion. It honors the day Christ returned from the dead after dying on the cross to redeem humanity for its sins. This year it honors the Second Coming of Christ, also known as … Are you really going to go there? Well, yeah. This past Monday, …
