I'm a husband and father. I'm a higher ed administrator. I also care about politics, music, running, ChiSox, Hawkeyes, Blackhawks, and Tottenham.
It’s so beautiful.

I’m just going to say, “The Prick in Red Stick” is an a+ monicker for Kiffin.

Thank god, it’s done. It was announced to the team, Golding is the interim, Kiffin didn’t even talk in the team meeting. Planes are going to Tupelo to get the prick down to red stick. Go to hell, Kiffin, and welcome to hell, LSU.

This is very satisfying.
For the record, I am totally fine if we want to do a 2017 style beatdown in Lincoln. I don't need to win on a last second FG to feel satisfied.

“We hate our rivals because they are the most like us, and therefore how we gauge our self-worth. Who cares if our team is better than some team across the country? We want to be better than the jerks down the road we see all the time. We hate most those who remind us of ourselves.”

College Football Playoff bids are great. Making your rival miserable is still better
The College Football Playoff race matters this week. But beating the team you hate the most? That lasts the rest of your life.

Moving on from JJ would be the worst thing that the Vikings could do. They need to stick with him and give him time. I'd recommend 8-10 years at a minimum.
Today’s NFL newsletter is about how it’s increasingly clear that JJ McCarthy is not only the worst QB in the NFL right now, but putting up some of the worst stats of any QB to play in the NFL in recent years, despite entering a near-ideal situation for a young QB sports.beehiiv.com/p/jj-mccarth...
JJ McCarthy is the worst
The Vikings need to move on from their 2024 10th overall pick ASAP. PLUS, Jameis Winston makes one of the greatest QB catches ever, the Raiders pin their problems on Chip Kelly, and more!
