    Listen to This Article: Rumor mill: UVA is low-balling men’s golf coach Bowen Sargent on extensionets prison time (for now)

    A situation similar to what we just saw play out with UVA Lacrosse coach Lars Tiffany could be in the works with the coach at UVA Men’s Golf, Bowen Sargent. Sargent’s contract expires at the end of the academic sports year, on June 30, and word around the clubhouse is, the first offer on the table for an extension comes with his salary flat from what he signed for in 2022 – i.e., no raise.

    Listen to This Article: Now we have Spanberger vetoing the Affordable Medicine Act

    Massive bipartisan majorities voted to pass the Affordable Medicine Act that Gov. Abigail Spanberger is signaling today that she plans to veto. State Sen. Creigh Deeds, D-Charlottesville, one of the authors of the legislation, which would create a Prescription Drug Affordability Board to review prescription drug prices and set payment ceilings on what certain state-regulated health plans can pay, said on Tuesday that Spanberger called him to tell him that she was planning to veto the bills. What’s going on here, right?

    Listen to This Article: Virginia man who posted thousands of threats of Dems gets prison time (for now)

    A Virginia man who used a MAGA social media platform linked to a former Trump aide to threaten Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, Barack Obama and former Trump FBI Director Christopher Wray, among many others, is, for now, at least, facing 30 months in prison. Who knows, Frank Lucio Carillo, 68, of Winchester, could end up being in line for some of that sweet Trump slush fund money for his troubles.

    Podcast: What happened to the Abigail Spanberger who ran for governor last year?

    Will the real Abigail Spanberger please stand up, please stand up, please stand up? The one who ran for governor last year didn’t end up being the one who took the oath of office; that’s all we know now. We found this out this week, with her gutting of paid family and medical leave, and her veto of collective bargaining for public-sector employees. This is what Democrats do when they get elected; they forget who put them there, and try to reach out to the other side. Predictable reaction from the other side to Spanberger reaching out: they’re still calling her a commie. Why do we do this?

    Podcast: What’s making news in UVA Athletics this week

    We eventually get around to breaking down the latest addition to the UVA Basketball rotation on our podcast, but first. Gotta start with how UVA Athletics is stonewalling me on the status of assistant swim team coach Gary Taylor, who is in Year 2 of a probation handed down in 2025 for emotional abuse of athletes at two other schools and a local YMCA. After going into detail on Gary Taylor, we talk UVA hoops, how much it will cost the 1 percent to watch UVA Football play in Brazil, and how far UVA Baseball will get in the NCAA Tournament (spoiler: not very).

    Debut of the Insane Cline Posse edition of ‘Street Knowledge’

    We don’t want to be stuck with Ben Cline just because the feckless MAGA congressman was successful spending other people’s millions to convince four MAGAs on the Supreme Court of Virginia to overturn the April 21 referendum. Want to know more about Ben Cline than you ever knew before? Wrong question; you don’t want to know any more about Ben Cline than you have to. The Insane Cline Posse edition of “Street Knowledge,” debuting today, isn’t medicine, I promise. I’ll tell you how much money Ben Cline, who pretends to hate government, has made working in government over the years. (Hint: it’s a lot!) Also on the show: we discuss SoCal transplant Rob Schilling, who so hated the libs on the Left Coast that he moved to Charlottesville – which, no, makes no sense at all – and hosts a MAGA radio talk show that five people listen to. For some reason, UVA Athletics supports this crap.

    You want fanzine coverage of UVA Basketball? Go somewhere else

    Everybody has a breaking point. I got to mine today cleaning out the comment section on AFP on two of my recent UVA Basketball articles. Seems that a lot of folks want fanzine coverage of their favorite team. This ain’t the place to get your coverage, then. Want to know what a guy who has been covering the program for 30 years really thinks? That’s all I can do. I apologize in advance for the language. Actually, nah.

    Get ready to pay up for field access to UVA Football

    UVA Athletics is going to give us a chance to wine and dine our clients on the field at Scott Stadium this fall. The cost: $2,500 minimum. I’m going to hold out for something bigger, which I explain on this week’s rundown of what’s making news in UVA sports. Also, if you could, tell everybody you know to click on the YouTube version – I want to beat the viewer number for Seth Davis and Andy Katz for their recent pod with Ryan Odom.
