Billy Napier will have a statue at Cajun Field one day. For all that he did at UL, I am most grateful for him winning big in 2020 and beating Iowa State in what was the last Cajuns game my dad saw before cancer got him. I'm sorry that it didn't work out for Billy in Gainesville.

He was terrific at Oregon. Guessing Sadiq will end up being the better pro, but he was TE2 last year when Ferguson was there.

Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!

I'm sure many of you have heard by now that earlier this week, IU k*lled the print edition of its student paper, the IDS. The issue that was supposed to print this week contained criticism of the Whitten regime and IUs further slide into scist control, and they couldn't allow that to happen during Homecoming, when all the rich alumni are in town.
Enter Purdue! The Purdue student paper, The Exponent, owns its own presses. Yesterday, in an act of tremendous solidarity with their biggest rival school, they printed the forbidden issue of the IDS. They then drove it to Bloomington overnight and stocked all of the IDS boxes on campus, just in time for Homecoming.
Solidarity is what makes us stronger, and solidarity will be what ultimately allows us to triumph, if we can ever truly get it together. I hope everyone has a fun, safe day if they're going out today, and I hope we can think about what acts of solidarity we can begin taking to really make this movement MOVE - beyond a permitted expression of upset into more active resistance.

I’m old as shit and I know I’ve never seen anything like this in my life.

Just watching that Ohtani homer over and over as if I am witnessing the actual face of Jesus.

It makes me very happy to see how many people here appreciate the waiting-for-takeout beer. When I had young kids, it was pretty much the totality of my evening social life. The best!

If your federation is hosting a soccer game against another nation's team, and the pregame national anthem for the visiting team is a prerecorded piece played over the PA, then you should not be able to have someone perform your anthem live. It's rude, tbh.

I honestly just want to cry at this. It’s so deeply fucked up.

My exact and immediate thought when I read the story.

This is gutting. May he rest in peace.

D'Angelo to Rolling Stone in 2015:

"The music business is a crazy game, especially for somebody like me who is really a purist about the art ... Trying to balance the pressures of commercialism, it’s a tightrope."

The ref calling Georgia-Auburn needs to sit for probably a month or two. Just atrocious.

I think Auburn's coaching staff includes at least two of the worst people on earth and I wish them nothing good at all, but... they are getting absolutely hosed by the officials in this game.
