Someone who's paid to write for a living put this abomination of a sentence in my city's newspaper.

I would try to experiment by posting to Bluesky, Twitter, and Threads simultaneously except for the fact that I left the other two because they're bot-infested hellholes.
I'd try Mastodon, too, but I left that because it seemed like no one was there.

I came here and am pleased it's NOT a "Global Townsquare." Because look at what happened to the sites that aspired to be such.

I don't think DJ Moore saw that ball. It's not that I want to agree with Cris Collinsworth, but after seeing a replay from the secondary, I don't think he knew where it was.

Punting down two scores with four minutes left and only one time out reeks of conceding.

Remember how cool it was that four of the six Wild Card games were competitive down to the wire? Good times. It feels like it was just a week ago.

Guy who just posted a bad take similar to this: "Stroud can't deal with the hits? What happened to QBs we praised for playing through it like Burrow, Luck, and Favre?"
He should fucking know what happened to the first two and who's going to be surprised if it's ever found that Favre has CTE?

Looks like the EU-US trade deal is now dead, with all three major groups in the EU Parliament calling at least for suspension. The downward spiral has already begun.

Now people are saying the NFL rigged the game because it doesn't want Josh Allen to win a Super Bowl. If Houston loses tomorrow, I want to see all the justification that the NFL wanted a Bo Nix-Drake May AFC Championship Game over Josh Allen vs C.J. Stroud. Bring me your conspiracies!

New Orleans Saints Trade Alvin Kamara to the Kansas City Chiefs
The New Orleans Saints had a promising finish to their 2025 season. Once their rookie quarterback, Tyler Shough, took over, the Saints went 5-4 to finish the season. *PREDICTION* There's a lot of promise for first-year head coach…

I guess I've been a bad boy lately. My phone no longer corrects "fuck" or any form thereof. It is now aware that when I'm angry, I'm not "ducking" angry.

I don't know how Justin Herbert can be a good quarterback when his offensive line lets him get destroyed like this in crunch time. And it's not like they did him many favors over the first 55 minutes.
If Joe Burrow isn't the next to be Andrew Lucked out of the league, it'll be Herbert.

If the NFL were conspiring against your team, the officials would be too incompetent to carry it out.

I left my job at a small newspaper in Southeast Kansas seven years ago yesterday. The company never turned off my online subscription, so I've been able to watch the paper devolve (yeah, that's the right word) while I've been gone.

No. Absolutely not. I don't care who the president is. No politician — and ESPECIALLY not Wanna-Be Dictator Nacho Cheese Dorito Dust Fat Fuck— gets the privilege of using my ears during football. I watch sports to ESCAPE, not to let a politician spit bullshit on my TV.
