A lighthearted look at news of the day:
Ty Cobb left the White House staff last week. Maybe this means he’ll return to the Detroit Tigers, where he belongs.
---
Word has it the Utah Jazz organization is upset at fans who were seen in the arena watching Hamilton on their phones.
---
Actually, it was the other way around. Hamilton actors were upset with Jazz fans looking at their phones during a recent performance in Salt Lake. But the seemingly boorish behavior was related to the show in a way. Fans were just checking to see whether Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert would force the other team into throwing away its shot.
---
Jazz fans, meanwhile, are beginning to view ex-player and now commentator Charles Barkley the way Hamilton fans view King George, especially after he predicted a Jazz loss in game 2 against the Rockets. If that analogy were true, however, Barkley soon would be singing about the Jazz, “You’ll be back.”
---
The White House, meanwhile, has its mind on a different, jazzier kind of music … something with lyrics like, “Don’t know why there’s no sun up in the sky … Stormy Daniels.”
---
First, Trump didn’t know his attorney paid porn star Stormy Daniels $130,000 to keep quiet about her claims of an alleged affair. Then, Trump acknowledged reimbursing the payment. Now, apparently, he did so without knowing what it was for. Getting back to Hamilton, it’s too bad no one else was in the room where it happened, but it’s clear that Cohen, at least, didn’t know how to say no to this.

In another incredible and unforeseen concession, North Korea now says it will adjust its time zone to sync with the time in South Korea. That’s trickier than it sounds. Currently, North Korea’s clocks are set to 1953.
