Everyone who didn't say Charlie Kirk was a saint should be doxxed and fired from their jobs. Here's why it's fine that Donald Trump is celebrating Rob Reiner's death.

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.
Us: Across your entire career?
Reiner: In a 6 year period.
Us: That sounds-
Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

I see the Offensive Player of the Year award (Heisman) once again went to an offensive player who did a lot of things on offense, better than the other things the offensive players did on offense (all complimentary)

I'm sure someone else has had this take somewhere, but is this the beginning of the end for the bowls? Players already know it's not worth it. Maybe teams are starting to figure it's not worth it. If it's not the playoffs, it doesn't matter (if you're from a big conference that is)
The point of playing football is to play football.
So Notre Dame's decision to opt out of playing a bowl game isn't just disappointing, but bad for the sports, @chrisvannini.com writes.

He can't stay awake. Or walk. Or speak. I'm so sick of the GOP denial. The embarrassing flattery parades. The complicit press standing silent while he drones on incomprehensibly or insults colleagues who dare to question his lies. Or laughing obligatorily at his non-jokes. I'm just so tired of it.

How many times have announcers preached "You must maintain control of the ball" when talking about catches? Not if you're Ohio State apparently

Really need all our tech bros to come up with a way to mute announcers and just let us hear the crowd and the refs so I don't have to hear overexcited announcers (side eyes Gus Johnson)

Baseball is so great you guys. It's also terrible and mean and no one should love it because it will snap your heart in half. But it's so great.

Why is every single thing "crucial" to an announcer? Scoring in the 4th inning was crucial? Really? Third downs in the second quarter are crucial? Really?
