For the first time in its history, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition will feature its first transgender model. Valentina Sampaio, a transgender woman from Brazil, has become the first transgender person to appear in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit magazine. This isn’t the first big gig Valentina has landed. In 2017, she was the first transgender model to land a Vogue magazine cover and last year she was the first trans person to represent the Victoria’s Secret’s lingerie line. It’s definitely a step forward but we should be asking ourselves a step towards what? Mark Colley
President Donald Trump wore a mask. Is it really a big deal? To Donald Trump’s closest advisors and supporters, it is. “Joe Biden is finished,” Trump senior advisor Jason Miller tweeted. “Goodnight, @JoeBiden,” a strategic advisor for Trump tweeted. The best one? Talk show host John DePetro: “Election over.” But is it really? Does Trump wearing a mask matter at all? How does it impact the election? Adam Cole
Warwick,RI 2020. Shoppers hear that Ann&Hope has been beaten by the pandemic and a fire-sale is going on. I went to the parking lot to observe. People dressed as if they should be at work were among those who emerged from the massive building with sheets,quilts and curtains by the armload. This is what the death of a long-standing retail enterprise looks like. It looks a bit like sharks that have smelled blood in the water. Ann&Hope was the name of a merchant ship that wrecked having run aground in 1804 on Block Island. Pat Sullivan
Boston College is headed into a new era following the hiring of Athletic Director Patrick Kraft and Head Coach Jeff Halfey. Kraft lands at the Heights following a very successful tenure at Temple where the athletic department saw record high GPAs throughout the majority of sports, and Halfey takes his first head coaching position following a CFP appearance as the defensive coordinator at Ohio State. College Football Impact's Pat Sullivan spoke with the editor of BCBulletin.com, the Sports Illustrated channel directed to the BC Eagles, about what to expect out of the new faces in Chestnut Hill. Sullivan and Black also discussed what it means to the ACC that long-time commissioner John Swofford is stepping down from that position following the conclusion of the 2020-2021 season. |
