The things Abdul Carter conveniently didn’t mention about his distaste for President Trump
The New York Giants have a lot going on with the return of Odell Beckham Jr., along with the addition of two other receivers in JuJu Smith-Schuster and Braxton Berrios, so the controversy caused when Abdul Carter complained teammate Jaxson Dart supports President Donald Trump is on the back burner now.
That’s how the Giants want it.
That’s how Carter probably wants it because he definitely doesn’t need anyone doing any critical thinking about the episode.
DART AND CARTER HUG IT OUT BUT NEITHER APOLOGIZES
But WFAN host Craig Carton of the Carton Show with Chris McMonigle has apparently given the saga some thought and he shared some of those on Don’t@Me with Dan Dakich.
“Abdul Carter had nothing to say when his coach did a press conference about his whole family meeting the president,” Carton said. “He had nothing to say when Saquon Barkley golfed with [Trump]. No, it’s white people. It’s white people that offend dumbasses.”
It’s not just White people. Because Harbaugh is White.
Carter found it easy to say, “if [Dart] chooses to align himself with a man like President Trump, it’s my responsibility based on what I believe or what I stand on, to not only show my teammates that I’m against that, but to show the world.”
This, while conveniently not mentioning whether he has any problem with Harbaugh, who visited Trump at the White House prior to the 2025 season.
Carter also conveniently didn’t mention that Lawrence Taylor, the greatest defensive player in franchise history, a Pro Football Hall of Famer, and the man Carter asked for permission to wear his retired jersey, is a Trump supporter.
ABDUL CARTER DELETES CRITICISM OF JAXSON DART ON SOCIAL MEDIA
Taylor has appeared publicly with Trump on multiple occasions over the last several years, including campaign rallies, White House events and golf outings.
One of the most notable appearances came in May of 2024 when Taylor joined Trump on stage at a campaign rally in Wildwood, New Jersey. Trump introduced Taylor as “the greatest defensive player ever” and referred to Taylor and former Giants running back O.J. Anderson as his “golfing partners.”
Taylor then delivered one of his strongest public endorsements of Trump, telling the crowd: “I grew up a Democrat, and I’ve always been a Democrat — until I met this man right here.”
Taylor later added: “[Trump] will not have to worry about nobody in my family ever vote for a Democrat again.”
That happened one month after Carter publicly requested the honor of wearing Taylor’s retired No. 56. Taylor denied the request and Carter wears No. 3 now, but the second-year player had obvious respect for Taylor.
Has that respect diminished based on Taylor’s sheer audacity of supporting Trump more openly than Dart ever has?
We don’t know because Carter has never criticized Taylor. Or Harbaugh, his coach.
Or been asked about it, either.
This is where the fabled toughness of the New York media failed last week.
They asked Dart if he made a mistake being with Trump at a rally. They didn’t ask Carter if he made a mistake calling out a teammate publicly.

They asked Dart if he understood why introducing Trump would be considered controversial by some. They didn’t ask Carter if he understood how Trump won the vote of 77 million Americans, the second-highest vote total in U.S. history, and his distaste for the president would be considered controversial by some.
And, yes, the media spoke with Harbaugh, too. They didn’t ask the coach about his meeting with Trump. And they didn’t ask Carter if that visit by his coach similarly offends him?
So, one supposes, there are reasons the New York media also want this story to die because it paints some of them in a light of doing incomplete work.
“People are always looking for something to latch on to, to attack those who support Trump,” Carton told Dakich. “It’s interesting to me that so many people are upset about a second-year QB introducing the president, but I didn’t hear one of those members of the media say a word about Josh Jacobs allegedly strangling his girlfriend.”
Rick Adelman, who ranks 10th in NBA history with 1,042 wins, died on Monday. He was 79.
The National Basketball Coaches Association announced his passing. A cause of death was not immediately disclosed.
Adelman spent 23 seasons as an NBA head coach, leading the Portland Trail Blazers, Golden State Warriors, Sacramento Kings, Houston Rockets and Minnesota Timberwolves. He compiled a 1,042-749 regular-season record and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2021.
Before coaching, Adelman played seven seasons as an NBA point guard after being drafted by the San Diego Rockets in 1968.
After taking over the Trail Blazers during the 1988-89 season, Adelman led a Clyde Drexler-led roster to NBA Finals appearances in 1990 and 1992.
In 1998, Adelman became the head coach of the Sacramento Kings. The Kings reached the playoffs in all eight of his seasons in Sacramento and advanced to the Western Conference Finals in 2002.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver released a statement Monday honoring Adelman’s legacy.

“Rick Adelman was one of the most respected and accomplished coaches in the history of the NBA,” Silver said.
“Following his NBA playing career, Rick turned to coaching where his leadership, innovation and genuine love for basketball left a lasting impression on generations of players and fellow coaches over his nearly 30-year run. He was a brilliant strategist and teacher of the game, and an even better person. I send my deepest condolences to Rick’s family and many friends throughout the league.”
Adelman is survived by his wife of 56 years, Mary Kay, their six children (including Nuggets coach David Adelman) and 12 grandchildren.

Florida beach toll booth worker killed after driver rams structure before getting stuck in sand, sheriff says
A toll booth attendant at a Florida beach was killed Monday when the driver of a pickup truck rammed into the structure before getting stuck in the sand.
The fatal crash happened around 12:40 p.m. at the Dunlawton Avenue beach access ramp in Daytona Beach Shores, the Volusia Sheriff’s Office said. The employee inside, Tammy Jo Baker, was just a few weeks shy of her 63rd birthday, Sheriff Mike Chitwood said at the scene.
The driver was “probably doing about 40 mph,” the sheriff said. “And it crushes the toll taker’s booth.”
Baker, a longtime employee with Volusia County who recently began working for the beach parking contractor, was pronounced dead at the scene after lifeguards attempted to perform CPR.
“I think she was probably close to being killed on impact,” Chitwood said. “That booth isn’t made of anything, if you look at it. And you hit that thing at 40 miles an hour; there’s really nowhere to go. And it flipped the booth around, the force of that.”
After the vehicle struck Baker, the driver, identified as 35-year-old Deanna Harrell, continued toward the water before authorities said she attempted before attempting to turn around and became stuck in the sand.
Bystanders ran to the truck to pull Harrell out, authorities said. She was being tested for possible impairment while driving, Chitwood noted, adding that there was a “heavy odor of alcohol” coming from the vehicle.
“It’s just senseless,” Chitwood said of Baker’s death.
