“Where you feel happy, stay.” Can’t really say I stop to watch “Subway Takes” when they pop up on the feed, but Kareem “Subway Takes Guy” Rahma’s day spent hanging out with an Egyptian cab driver is beautiful. Just non-stop bars.
QS Sports Desk Play of the Week 🏀 — This got snubbed last week because of Mitch over Embiid, but Vassell starting to shoot before he started shooting is getting a belated nod.
