Happy any time I can talk about the Alabama-Miami Sugar Bowl. In this one I also get to bring up the 2006 Auburn-Florida game, just because. open.substack.com/pub/firewill...
Watching this Charlotte-Detroit fight & thinking about how funny it is when normal sized humans have to try & restrain pro ball players. It's like trying to hold back the ocean.

I know we're all eager to dunk here (for obvious reasons) but ... yeah. Do take the vaccine. Srsly.

Thought "Water Perverts" deserved more Oscars tbh
Online fake outrage posts be like "HOW are grown-ass people drinking water? WHY? And don't give me those 'to stay hydrated' or 'because they are thirsty' or 'to better swallow medication' excuses. Don't give me ANY non-weird-sexual excuse. What are you left with? Weird sexual stuff. Water perverts."

An example of what I'm talking about. Nash is ... probably lying here, right? Like 90% of what gets said in "shoot" interviews is either made up or misremembered. So what are you, the responsible journalist, meant to do with the info? bsky.app/profile/davi...
Making this (Nash saying that HHH decided to work with and beat Punk instead because of some improvised line about Stephanie) much more interesting is that the story at the time was that Nash was pulled because he didn't tell anyone that he was on blood thinners.

A while back I got the idea of doing a "pro wrestling journalism" panel at CMA or some other large conference, where people from the industry talk about how to deal with sources & interview subjects whose entire job revolves around a fake universe.
I cannot believe how credulously - and prolifically - this stupid TPUSA halftime show has been covered.

One of the kids at the party wanted to go outside & pet my very large dogs, so
Missed Bad Bunny’s halftime show? Want to rewatch? (4x and counting for me). The NFL posted the whole performance on YouTube: on pace for 500k views in the first 30 minutes.

Pregame analysis from Rodney Harrison says the Patriots should "put the ball in Drake Maye's hands" ... Drake Maye is the quarterback. The dynamics of the game dictate they kind of have to put the ball in Drake Maye's hands

Turned on the CTSN broadcast in the car towards the end & heard Jamychal by God Green doing color. At one point he said something about milking possessions & not running offense till late in the clock. Stewart, right on cue: "When you played that was the whole offense."

Little Brother scored a bucket off an assist from Sister & we played the team that beat us 14-2 a few weeks ago to an 11-11 tie this morning. Don't think there's a need for me to experience any more basketball today.
