Baseball Legend Roger Clemens Uses 1 Word To Describe President Trump

Baseball Legend Roger Clemens Uses 1 Word To Describe President Trump originally appeared on The Spun.
President Trump recently had some remarks about the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran that really grabbed the attention for baseball legend Roger Clemens.
In a now-viral moment at the White House yesterday, President Trump remarked that he was extremely upset at the two countries for still fighting even after his military action last week. He dropped an F-bomb while decrying that the two nations "don't know what the F they're doing."
"We have two countries that have been fighting so long that they don't know what the (expletive) they're doing," Trump said.
Clemens reposted a clip of him saying that and had just one word to describe the president:
"Legend."
Clemens' fans in the comments agreed:
"When a Legend reposts a legends post of a Legend. You hit 3 squared territory. Now that's 3-D chess," one user replied.
"Legends recognize legends," wrote another.
"I voted for that F-Bomb," a third declared.
"This is as real as it gets.. I love this man more and more every day..."
"He made more sense of the situation than anyone with that statement."
Roger Clemens has long been a supporter of President Trump. He's been an active member of the Republican Party for decades and has donated his own money to supporting their political causes through the years.
Just a few months ago he visited Trump at the White House. The President is clearly very fond of him.
As a player, Clemens was a two-time World Series champion and an 11-time All-Star during a career spanning nearly a quarter-century. He was voted to the MLB All-Century Team and is a member of the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame.
However, Cooperstown has never come calling for Clemens, likely due to him being implicated in the steroid scandals of the 2000s. He is the only eligible member of baseball's esteemed 300-win club that never got inducted.Baseball Legend Roger Clemens Uses 1 Word To Describe President Trump first appeared on The Spun on Jun 25, 2025

The GHOSTBUSTERS Universe Reportedly Expanding With New Movie and Animated Projects in the Works — GeekTyrant

The Ghostbusters franchise isn't slowing down anytime soon. According to a new rumor, Sony is quietly building out a slate of new projects that could significantly expand the world of proton packs and paranormal threats across both live-action and animation. The scoop comes from insider MyTimeToShineHello, who posted on X: 'A new Ghostbusters movie is in development at Sony + they are planning a trilogy of animated films and multiple seasons of an animated show.' While this hasn't been officially confirmed by Sony, it tracks with the studio's recent momentum after Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and the renewed efforts to grow the franchise beyond just films. Director Gil Kenan, who helmed Frozen Empire and co-wrote it with Jason Reitman, recently gave an update on the animated series that's been brewing over at Netflix. On A Trip to the Movies with Alex Zane, Kenan said: 'It's very exciting, I just watched an entire presentation for the show. I've seen the sets and the environments and I just saw my first glimpse of a world of supernatural characters as realized by our brilliant creative team.' He added: 'The work is being done as we speak. It's in what we call, 'full development.' The scripts are being written and art is being created.' This animated series was originally announced back in June 2022 as a partnership between Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation. Development had been paused while Kenan and Reitman focused on their live-action sequels, but now it sounds like things are fully back in motion. Kenan previously said: 'Jason [Reitman]… we take the responsibility and the joy of being the keepers of the flame of Ghostbusters very seriously… we definitely are continuing the conversation of telling big Ghostbuster stories on the big screen. And stay tuned. There'll be more. There'll be more about that later.' When talking about what he'd like to see in these other projects, he said: "I'd love to explore how other cultures, or at least I'd love to see as a fan, how other cultures create specific threats and specific ways to deal with them in future installments." For fans of the franchise, this is a pretty big deal. Ghostbusters has always been more than just the movies — from The Real Ghostbusters in the '80s to Extreme Ghostbusters in the late '90s, the animated side of the universe was a lot of fun. Kenan and Reitman are obviously aiming to tap into that tradition with a fresh, supernatural world built for a new generation. With multiple animated seasons, a possible animated film trilogy, and another live-action movie reportedly in the works, the Ghostbusters brand is lining up for a serious expansion.

Mel Brooks Producing VERY YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN Series Pilot for FX with Taika Waititi Directing — GeekTyrant

It looks like Mel Brooks' monster is getting a new lease on life and this time it will be on the small screen. FX is reportedly close to ordering a pilot for Very Young Frankenstein , a new comedy series inspired by Brooks' 1974 cult classic Young Frankenstein . Brooks himself has given it his blessing and will serve as executive producer, alongside a creative dream team from FX's What We Do in the Shadows . Stefani Robinson is writing and showrunning the series, with Taika Waititi set to direct the pilot. Garrett Basch, Kevin Salter (Brooks' longtime producing partner), and original Young Frankenstein producer Michael Gruskoff are also on board. 20th Television will produce the series. Details are being kept under wraps, but fans of Shadows might remember when Colin Robinson was turned into a baby and had to grow up again. So, there's a chance this new take could include some wild genre-bending antics in that same spirit. No casting news yet, but the tone and team suggest we're in for something clever and twisted. Young Frankenstein parodies the classic Frankenstein mythos with Gene Wilder playing Frederick Frankenstein (that's 'Fronkensteen'), a descendant of Victor Frankenstein who inherits his infamous grandfather's Transylvania estate. With the help of the bug-eyed Igor (Marty Feldman), Frederick sets out to clear the family name… by building his own monster. Naturally, things go hilariously off the rails. Shot in glorious black and white, the original also featured Peter Boyle as the monster, Cloris Leachman as the haunting Frau Blücher, Teri Garr, Madeline Kahn, and Brooks himself in multiple roles. The film remains one of Brooks' most iconic works, blending horror homage with comedic precision. Very Young Frankenstein is just the latest of Brooks' classics to be reimagined for a modern audience. It will be interesting to see how this turns.
