In the May 11 newsletter:
A guide on what to expect when the Brood X Cicadas come this summer, a look at the legacy of Kevin Garnett, and the definitive ranking of pop culture bugs.

Summer Is Coming. So Are Trillions of Brood X Cicadas.

Jay Torres

A once-every-17-year cicada emergence is about to take place. To prepare, we set out to find the massive insects—and learn all about how they live, sound, and taste.

[Here's Lex Pryor on what to expect when the cicadas arrive this summer.]

Kevin Garnett Made Anything Possible

Dan Evans

The Hall of Fame inductee’s limitless skill set and groundbreaking contract helped shape the modern NBA, but his legacy in Minnesota goes beyond what he did on the court.

[Britt Robson on Kevin Garnett's legacy.]

The Definitive Ranking of Bugs

Jay Torres

In honor of the once-in-a-generation emergence of the Brood X cicadas, two insect authorities lay out their case (without shedding them) for the best pop culture bugs.

[Miles Surrey and Megan Schuster are back to rank the bugs of pop culture!]

Will the Lakers Be a Play-in Team This Postseason? | The Mismatch

Kevin O’Connor and Chris Vernon discuss the possibility of the Lakers falling to a play-in seed and what the Western Conference play-in matchups could look like.

The Night the Bugs Came for Joba Chamberlain

When the rookie phenom took the mound in Game 2 of the 2007 ALDS, he seemed poised to deliver the Yankees a victory. Then the midges swarmed—and created one of the most indelible moments in baseball history.

[Jake Kring-Schreifels looks back on a buggy night in 2007.]

The Sound of Summer

Cicadas sound like ice cream trucks, the whistle of a whiffle ball, the clink of ice in a glass of lemonade—stealthily singing in the backdrop as if they were there all along.

[Join Aric Jenkins as he ruminates on the nostalgic sound of cicadas in summer.]
