Every school, law firm, media conglomerate, and corporation that bent the knee to Trump (especially those that embraced discrimination) needs to be investigated and individuals charged once we get the fascists out of power.

At this point just tell the refs to call a false start literally every time they run it and be done with it.
Not reviewable. Doesn’t need a rule change. And the Eagles literally false start every time.

NFL executive Troy Vincent, at the league meeting, says the Tush Push continues to be tough to officiate. “At the end of the day, there is a team that still does it well.”
“From an officiating standpoint, we’re gonna try to get better when someone is in the neutral zone or leaves a little early.”

I’d almost feel bad if it wasn’t 7 years old.

The AP poll continues to be a joke.
They finally rank 5-1 Nebraska, whose only loss is to ranked Michigan.
But put them below a Cincinnati that the Huskers beat in week 1.

I'm watching the Cubs/Padres game and I'm having some weird issues. My video/audio are cutting in and out.
It doesn't matter if it's via Plex and the antenna in my house, or from my YouTube TV subscription.
I've tried using both my Wifi and 5G on my phone.
