Incoming snow storm means I finally have a reason to post this picture of a snow shovel I found in central PA.
Gotta imagine someone has this as their Reddit handle already

How much does it cost to lose a national championship?
We don't have data from this year, but putting together numbers from past runs show Miami probably spent about $10 million on its four postseason games.

after the caps won in 2018 i lost every vestiage of sports hate in my body and now just want every fan to get to feel that feeling.
it rules!
it rules!
In this ep Spencer has a bit about how it feels when your team finally gets over the top that really hit for me. Georgia’s 2021 title is the only time I ever saw my dad cry. Every time a team in any sport has gotten their first one since then, I just feel this overwhelming warmth for their fans

Oberlin was one of the very worst teams in all of college football this year, and their players knew it.
I called them to ask why they kept playing and what they learned from the experience. ,

I think Cignettis next move should be to jump to a program whose glory days are long gone. Whose roster is completely barren. Who is completely directionless and desperate for leadership.

i did hear from someone in the know at the nfl level that these flags come in strips and they are constantly replacing ones that get damaged/lost. so might be less of a headache
Why not just buy it when break even is after 8-10 uses? Do they not last?
