The TEN<\/p><\/div>\n

(\u201cThe TEN\u201d\u00a0is not\u00a0a top ten but ten items worth being included in \u201cThe TEN\u201d)<\/p>\n

1.) \u201cI thought title 9 was to afford females opportunity to get equal funding so females can participate and excel in all sports. Looks like there is a loophole the activists overlooked while trying to force an agenda\u2026DNA. So remind me, whats the point of title nine ????\u201d\u2014Commenter \u201cNobody\u201d on blog about Alaskan boy claiming to be a girl and running against girls in a track & field competition.<\/p>\n

2.) \u201cThere is no such thing as a \u201csoft\u201d taco. All that is, is a skimpy burrito. About 30 cents of filling and they want 3 bucks.\u201d\u2014MVS commenter \u201cFrito Bandito\u201d<\/p>\n

3.) The Los Angeles Dodgers have recalled Austin Barnes from Oklahoma City.<\/p>\n

4.) Former Arroyo quarterback Dominic Salmon turns 28. Salmon went 26-10 as a three year starter (2003-2005) for the Knights. He went 3-3 in the post-season and helped advance the 2004 team to the semifinals.<\/p>\n

5.) \u201dJoe Frazier is an Uncle Tom. He works for the enemy.\u201d\u2014Muhammed Ali<\/p>\n

6.) \u201cTwelve full minutes left in a game, down only 20, in a league with a 24-second shot clock and three-point line…And the Cavs fold their tents…I can’t shake it…I may be an anachronism from another day…but it just goes against everything I ever learned in sports.\u201d\u2014MVS staffer Joe T. on Facebook Sunday night after Game Two of the NBA Finals.<\/p>\n

7.) Muhammed Ali and Joe Frazier fought for the first time on March 8, 1971, shortly after Ali’s return from a three-year ban for his refusal to fight in the Vietnam war. During that ban, Frazier had supported Ali both financially and in public statements.<\/p>\n

8.) On this date 72 years ago, June 6, 1944, the D-Day invasion \u201cOperation Overlord\u201d was launched in northern France.<\/p>\n

9.) “A white lawyer kept him out of jail. And he’s going to Uncle Tom me?\u201d\u2014Joe Frazier on Muhammed Ali<\/p>\n

10.) \u201dThe world has lost a great champion. I will always remember Joe with respect and admiration. My sympathy goes out to his family and loved ones.\u201d\u2014Muhammad Ali on the death of Joe Frazier<\/p>\n
