People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

I've never really had a problem with the age gap in Bill Belichick's relationship. they're consenting adults and if they're happy together, that's all that matters

the more concerning thing is that based on everything we know, Jordon Hudson appears to be way over her skis in everything she does

I know he's just an actor working a gig, but I've convinced myself the guy in the Collars & Co ad is a white-collar criminal of some sort

Trump won a couple of elections by piecing together an irreplicable coalition for a GOP candidate, but once in power, his political instincts, and the political instincts of the people around him, are fucking terrible

picking a fight with an astronaut is just the latest example

there's always been a loud contingent of Steelers fans who think Mason Rudolph's a top-15 QB in the league who has been unfairly deprived the chance of being a starter and I think it's largely due to people seeing what his Twitter likes were back when he was first drafted

the second that Eze signed with Arsenal instead of Spurs, I knew he was scoring at least two goals in his first North London Derby

as someone who worked for four years as a beer vendor at a stadium, I could punch you in the fucking throat if you ever did what Shane Gillis did in that Bud Light ad where you talk in the mocking vendor voice

brother, I'm hauling 50 pounds of product up and down stairs. I don't need your shit

this isn't taking away anything from Pitt and what they're doing right now, but Georgia Tech's been getting away with it a lot this year. they're a good squad, but not as good as their record might indicate

took me a few days to get around to it, but this was exceptional work by Pablo and Madison

also, salute to Trinity Ward for speaking about Gaines on the record. that takes genuine courage given what she's probably had to deal with the past 48 hours
PTFO collaborated with @msjpauly.bsky.social and @motherjones.com on an investigation into Riley Gaines.

Riley’s messaging about trans athletes involves “predatory men” and “sexual assault.”

But there’s an important story multiple ex-teammates at Kentucky want you to know: youtu.be/iKUl8lkuGOc?...

one year after going 2-10 and replacing the only coach in program history, Kennesaw State is 7-3 and alive for a conference title in just its second season in the FBS

I talked with those around the program to find out more about one of college football's best stories this season
How Kennesaw State football went from 2-10 to being bowl-eligible in its second FBS season
In just its second season in the FBS and under first-year head coach Jerry Mack, Kennesaw State football is bowl eligible. Here's how Owls got there.

thought about this with Pitt and UCF playing tonight, but between Jeff Capel, Johnny Dawkins and Bobby Hurley, former Duke guards are responsible for a disproportionately high number of 'Wow, that guy's still coaching there?' cases in college basketball

beyond people I follow, my Instagram feed has become almost exclusively basketball and soccer highlights, Always Sunny clips, and pictures of Jennifer Love Hewitt from the late 90s and early 2000s

the algorithm has figured me out

I know they're missing a couple of guys, but if Kentucky really paid $22 million for this roster, I'd be asking for a refund

he wishes he could do the same thing to journalists in this country
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

“Here’s what we don’t say out loud: There’s no money in journalism anymore. No fame, no glamour, no prestige. But there’s lots and lots of money in media—in being a brand, an influencer, a personality. We stopped paying journalists and started rewarding performers.”

there are a million different wrinkles to this Nuzzi story, but above all else, I've gotta say:

congrats on your new west coast editor, Vanity Fair

I like James Franklin to Virginia Tech, not only because I think he'll do well there, but because Pat Narduzzi hates that man's guts and now they'll get to face off semi-regularly again

gotta be honest: this Nick Fuentes seems like a little asshole

seriously, how many country music award shows are there? feel like I see them advertised throughout the year

know some people joke on BC for having a New Balance deal, but basically every jersey I've seen for their teams looks really cool and clean

I'd rather than have that arrangement than a lot of what Adidas makes their schools wear

that cop at the A&M game's gonna be an ICE agent by Tuesday

this is my two-year-old son's favorite shirt. looks for any excuse to wear it. today, he refused to wear it when I tried to put it on him

vibes have been off all day

just an absolutely disastrous coaching performance from Jeff Brohm
