Sorry about whatever I did that brought you here // Senior Editor @TheAthletic.com // Go Griz
I know Luke Wilson is from Texas but I think we can all agree he’s putting that accent on kinda thick

Montana and MSU each losing in the 2nd round the year they could rematch in the semis would, objectively, be the funniest outcome for both fanbases
Imagine if Yale pulls off the improbable next week in Bozeman as an unseeded first playoffs ever team.

Three quarters of FCS fandom would have a meltdown.

Talking to 10 year old boys rocks because you ask them shit like who would win in a fight, Godzilla or Optimus prime and they already have an answer and explanation

I do wonder how much of my generally chill personality can be attributed to the fact that I’ve never needed to drive to a job outside of living in SoCal. Sitting in traffic daily has to do something permanently bad to your brain, right?
my very first job was on the outskirts of LA and after 18 months of the 45-75 minute drive each way I just snapped, quit my job, moved to SF, sold my car, and made a promise to myself that I would never do that again
If you think this is an unrealistic commute for DFW, here’s one my old manager who moved to DFW from Iowa does every single day

if the quarterback is very clearly being wrapped up and they throw the ball away it needs to be an automatic intentional grounding. we have to do something about this woke nonsense

Wrote about Idaho a few years ago when Eck was turning that program around and people Would. Not. Stop. Talking. About how quickly he changed the culture with the team and the fan base: skylinesportsmt.com/you-can-find...

Surreal but not shocking to see what he's done with New Mexico this year.

That Rayban Meta AI commercial where she asks her glasses the weather, it says 63 degrees, and she’s like “will I need a jacket?”

You know what weather feels like! The computer doesn’t! Why would it have more information than you???
It’s amazing how much of this advertising is “you know that thing you were already doing without any issues? What if your phone told you to do it?”

Jason Eck is simply a culture builder. I’m kinda shocked he wasn’t the pick for Colorado State or Oregon State.
I’ve seen UNM fans get loud for basketball in The Pit before but never heard them for a football game like this

I found this terribly sad. A young woman with her life ahead of her, and she becomes one of the last American victims of the Long War.

I am on record as loving purple, but I hate the NFL's obsession with monochrome looks.

(Also they should've brought back either of these logos for the helmet.)

The Chiefs have dipped below 50% to make the playoff for the first time all season per my model.

Winning out will almost certainly get them in but losing another game? That means they'll need some help.

Will give you 5:1 that this tease is already known to be a nothing-burger.
This is a lot, but (allegedly) Olivia Nuzzi sent a secret recorder with a sketch artist to tape Trump at Mar-a-Lago so she could feed campaign intel to RFK, where [pauses to take a breath] something Trump said about his assassination attempt “would shatter our understanding of recent history”??

i’m stunned. if even half of these allegations are true, this is a devastating blow to political journalism as an institution. it reads like a caricature and will give bad faith critics of good journalists new ammunition. if accurate, how on earth did it take so long for this to come out?

Thank god I grew up with stuffing because if I’d never heard of it before and someone showed up to my house as an adult with wet bread and celery casserole my first instinct would be to beat their ass.
