Random Start: Childish Gambino - Fire Fly

Far cry from the Donald Glover we all know now, but I am not ashamed to say I enjoyed this stuff when I was younger and more fun.

Random Start: AFI - The Days Of The Phoenix

First tattoo artist I ever went to was blasting the full album on repeat during the session, so now AFI is forever associated with being needled over and over.

Random Start: Digable Planets - Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)

There was a period (6-12 months) in the 90s when this video was on MTV once or twice every hour.

Traded for the Ricketts favorite thing!

The Cubs have traded reliever Andrew Kittredge to the Orioles for cash considerations.

Kittredge, who the Cubs acquired from Baltimore at the trade deadline, had a $9 million club option for 2026.

Random Start: Ratboys - Anj

Random Start: Bully - Days Move Slow

A 2023 release that sounds like it could have been a mid 90s release and ended up on a coming of age comedy soundtrack (American Pie, She’s All That, 10 Things, etc).

Zac Taylor is gonna be a Bears coach some day.

Zac Taylor's challenge BACKFIRES.

Taylor wanted a fumble out of bounds. Call on the field was out of bounds at the 1.

Instead, it's a touchdown.

Totally convinced that the best way to watch matches (if you cannot be at them or an OSC) is with radio silence on all social media, text, messaging until at least a few hours after. #COYS
