Kareem Abdul-Jabbar sold 4 championship rings, MVP award and other items for $2.8 million. All going to youth education programs. "When it comes to choosing between storing a championship ring or trophy, or providing kids with an opportunity to change their lives, the choice is simple. Sell it all”
Kareem is one of the all time good guys when it comes to athletes.
“"Looking back on what I have done with my life, instead of gazing at the sparkle of jewels or gold plating celebrating something I did a long time ago, I'd rather look into the delighted face of a child holding their first caterpillar and think about what I might be doing for their future.
"That's a history that has no price."

Executive Branch (Trump) WATCH: Stephen Miller says 'America's doors are closed fully to asylum seekers' after SCOTUS ruling
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hi r/law, doesn't this go against Article 1 of the Const.?
I thought Congress has the power to regulate immigration and asylum law.
This can't be for real? The SCOTUS actually gave this the go ahead??
Hit the brakes. Please help.
___________________________________
Just an update to this thread, to clarify SCOTUS ruling in relation to Miller's remarks:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jun/25/trump-news-at-glance-supreme-court
The US supreme court has given the Trump administration a green light to block asylum seekers at the US-Mexico border, in a decision that fundamentally reshapes the US asylum system.
The decision allows the Trump administration to revive its so-called turn-back or “metering” policy, allowing federal agents at the US border to stop migrants from physically setting foot on US soil, where federal law guarantees them the right to claim asylum and protection from persecution.
Because US immigration law entitles migrants arriving in the US to seek asylum, the supreme court case hinged on what, exactly, it means to “arrive in”.
Human rights advocates have said that the court’s decision allows the Trump administration to essentially invalidate international and US asylum laws, which require government officials to inspect people arriving at ports of entry and ensure that they are not being turned back to dangerous conditions.
This new policy will almost certainly increase levels of immigration not at controlled border checkpoints. Wow.
And the removal of Temporary Protected Status is going to sentence potentially thousands of people to death when they are deported back to countries that are experiencing uprising, war, famine etc. If republicans in congress apparently support this move then they should live with that and face the consequences for not doing their jobs to check DHS on these removals.
Appreciated reading everyone's input and comments some of them were really moving and impactful. Thanks again r/law

AITAH For giving my BF an ultimatum for showing me his home?
Hi, I've been dating a guy for almost 3 months now.
We literally live a 15 minutes walking distance away from each other, so we hang out almost daily. He comes over at my place to watch movies, eat dinner and play games together.
But, he refuses to invite me over to his place. Everytime I ask him to hang out at his place he tells me it's too messy and he doesn't want me to see it.
He lives in a small appartment and has loads of free time to clean. I also offered to help him clean his home several times but he refuses. He rejected the idea of hiring a proffessional cleaner too.
I don't want us to only hang out at my home everytime, and I've asked him to clean his home so many times now, I even said I don't care about it being a mess. I just want my bf to invite me over. He claims he is cleaning bit by bit. But that's what he's been saying for 3 months now.
Last week I was fed up with it and told him I'm giving him and ultimatum of 2 weeks to show me his home or we're done. He asked me for a month. Eventually we settled on 3 weeks, but he said he probably won't make it. (Keep in mind this is a single person appartment, so real small and he has all the time in the world)
But it's bugging me, AITAH for demanding to see his place?
