Tom Hanks getting into the liferaft after his FedEx plane crashed into the ocean in Cast Away was evidence of him continuing his mission to deliver packages to Malaysia and not just trying to survive.

My dad was a college professor and taught this to me at a young age. Just did it yesterday as I was working on resume refreshes. And am teaching it to my daughters as they progress into and through middle school.
I tell my students the easiest way to catch mistakes is for them to read their papers out loud, and they always look at me like I'm insane.

But look, that's what we do with our own books! Because it works!
Lunch break at 2pm after completing day 6 of 8 of reading aloud the page proofs of my book with a friend. My brain has liquified. Typical typos caught today: Untied States, statue instead of statute.

Oh wow - this very dresser tried to get me to "hold on to something for a couple of days" for it but my momma didn't raise no fool. Looks like I was right about the entrapment vibes.

What a silly idea. Any team good enough to elevate Vandy into the playoffs with a win would themselves be kept out of the playoffs with a loss. This is crack smoking AD nonsense.
Wait, they were serious about this?

I'm not posting on Twitter anymore because I refuse to put a dime in Elon Musk's pocket

And I don't do Spotify because I refuse the same for Joe Rogan

Sorry, no listening age for me from a company's creepy algorithm that helps prioritize pro-MAGA, anti-vax, Elon gargling podcasts

Maybe Penn state should hire Army's coach, who doesn't have a roster to bring with him but has developed this level of talent into years of success at west point
If Penn State doesn’t land a bring-a-roster head coach, this is… uh… yeah this might get rough.

I have a foot long section of the goal post we tore down after NC State's 17-7 win over Florida State in 2002. Also have a soda cup full of some turf I tore up from the endzone that day.
What is the most "obscure" piece of sports memorabilia that you own? Why do you have it?

The most important part of this story is that she's just being sent out on loan. Whew.

Maybe this will teach fans to not care so much about making the playoffs.

In fact, we shouldn't even call it the playoffs. It's an invitational, kinda like Maui in basketball.

They're going to pick teams that they think give them good TV and then cram justifications around the edges.
Column: The committee found a strange way to elevate Alabama over Notre Dame, which is strangely elevated over Miami. The last rankings before THE rankings were an exercise is puzzling logic and twisted facts. bit.ly/48ATmIY
Alabama’s Nonsensical College Football Playoff Rankings Rise Has Major Ramifications
The Tide’s narrow win over a bad Auburn team somehow became the committee’s justification for jumping Notre Dame, while Ole Miss avoided penalty.

Maybe we should stop acting like TV contracts are indicative of quality

Conferences are so bloated as to be meaningless
The ACC doomsday clock has ticked down to a minute and it’s closing in on midnight fast.

Could a power conference really get shutout of a 12 team field? It’s on the table now.

NIL & portal is going to make Navy a powerhouse in G5. Coaches want to be at Navy to avoid the nonsense can retain rosters and develop starters with 4+ years in the system to go against annual rebuilds st every other AAC program. 19-5 in last 2 seasons. Top 20 SOR in 2025.
Vanderbilt is getting the No. 1 QB recruit in the country.

The No. 1 overall recruit is going to Houston.

The top 10 recruits are going to 9 different schools, including Maryland.

NIL/portal have become the great equalizer:

1989 Hyundai excel. Stick shift. Power nothing. Failed the first time because he claimed I didn't check enough mirrors when entering a turn lane for a stoplight.
I'm curious: What car did you take your driver's license test in?

Gonna give the Chick-fil-A chicken and waffles sandwich a solid 8.3 out of 10

Honestly I've been turned off of CFA sandwiches for a while now. Think something with my GLP-1 meds changed my palette.

But waffle with a hint of syrup blew away their standard bun. Will eat again.

Waiting for BDA isn't the fog of war. It's waiting for smoke to clear.
Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?

HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

I had a FC RX-7 convertible for about 4 months before it was stolen off the hard streets of downtown Newport, RI.

Never recovered, but the license plate showed up on a red light camera 500 miles away a couple years later

9-2 Navy, whose only losses came to the #5 (ND) and #16 (North Texas) teams (both on the road), barely breaks into the top 60

They're 35 spots below the USF team they beat and 24 spots behind the Memphis team they absolutely dominated

Conferences can not use these metrics as tiebreakers
COLLEGE FOOTBALL SP+ TOP 766, WEEK 15

* NDSU -4.5 Duke (NDSU TO THE ACC)
* Kutztown -4 Ball State
* North Centra -1.5 UMass
* Miami -133 Fort Lauderdale
* BREAKING NEWS: Odd opponent adjustments have allowed Maine Maritime to sneak into 766th!! OUTRIGHT THEFT!!
