Though Bill Belichick has said he doesn’t worry about how he’s perceived, it appears he’s aware that his reputation could use a makeover. The longtime football coach, who last Sunday went viral along with his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, for an awkward interview with “CBS Sunday Morning,” has been in discussions with at least one outside public relations specialist in an effort to either help sell his new book, assist with UNC football matters or both, according to ProFootballTalk. Belichick has been talking “for a couple of months” with Brandon Faber, the Chicago Bears’ former vice president of communications, the…

Tech baron Elon Musk exposed “Big Balls” to the world for the first time last week, introducing the 19-year-old software engineer-turned-DOGE worker whose odd nickname has raised eyebrows. “Big Balls,” whose real name is Edward Coristine, quickly gained national attention because of his age and nickname — with critics pointing to both as evidence that the Department of Government Efficiency was being led by a bunch of baby-faced neophytes. Coristine, appearing on Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime” on Thursday alongside Musk and a coterie of other DOGE employees, said he gave himself the nickname on a lark. Edward “Big Balls”…

President Trump re-upped his attacks on cheap Chinese imports and stood by his assertion that American children will be fine if they “have two dolls instead of 30.” “I don’t think that a beautiful baby girl needs – that’s 11 years old – needs to have 30 dolls,” Trump reiterated to NBC’s “Meet the Press” in an interview that aired Sunday. “I think they can have three dolls or four dolls because what we were doing with China was just unbelievable.

It’s a formula that works, as attested by the loyalty of longtime customers such as Gary Snyder, who said he only needs to wave his hand to workers at the counter to place his regular order of two mustard dogs. “I’ve been coming here for over 40 years,” he told San José Spotlight. “I like everything about the place. The food has always been great, but the…
