Dale, I'm so sorry. I know how much you loved Yuki.

Or maybe a cute "little" sauropod such as Magyarosaurus, which is among the smallest sauropods and hails from present-day TRANSLYVANIA!

The most stunning thing about Belichick's career collapsing and his reputation for anyone under 25 being recast as "horny old dude flaming out in six weeks at North Carolina" is that the football team that made the best decision to keep itself clean throughout this saga was the Atlanta Falcons

After almost 15 hours of travel thanks to weather delays, i get to my hotel, open the room's door ... and the bed is unmade with a stack of blankets and sheets on it.

Woman on the other side of this man asked if he could shove his shoes in a bag because there was no way he feet smelled worse than his shoes.

Ever spend 7 hours on a flight (with a stop to refuel) next to someone who smelled like they last showered when before anyone had heard the name "Taylor Swift" and whose shoes smelled like horseshit?

Oh, she's going to fuck the news, alright. And CBS' rep, too.

Bari Weiss introduced herself to CBS News staff today on the network's 9AM call, saying she wants to "win," which requires restoring trust to CBS. She also said she was excited for staff to get to know the Free Press, and ended her remarks by saying: "Let's do the fucking news."

Chiefs 2-3 and Ravens 1-4. Your AFC leaders: Daniel Jones and the Colts. We in the Twilight Zone.

What a drive:

- Burn 43 seconds and a TO on two Trevor scrambles
- Gorgeous, world-class throw up the sideline
- Delay of game with a stopped clock
- PI at exactly the right time
- Trevor trips and scrambles for a TD anyway

We spent an entire segment on the Jaguars last week being the most Messy Fun team in the NFL

They've done us proud with this performance tonight

The Sherman was such a superior tank for field operations. Easy to repair! Easy to operate! Easy to mass produce. Who cares if you needed 3-to-1 odds if you could make 12 Shermans (or more) for every Tiger that destroyed one.

We have one (1!) on our block, and one of my neighbors started sweeping up that smoker's butts and depositing them on their porch.

The butts disappeared after a few weeks.

Fun coda to the story, Bari Weiss is now head of CBS news and Radley Balko was fired from the WaPo mostly because he was such a good actual journalist on his beat

jamelle @jamellebouie.net · 3d

perhaps the biggest story TFPever ran was a catastrophically shoddy argument that George Floyd ackshully died of an overdose. When confronted with irrefutable evidence that the piece was simply wrong, Weiss didn’t take it down, she asked her critic, @radleybalko.bsky.social, to come on a podcast.

Putting together the agate pages were a joy when I was working sports desks in newspapers. Remember assembling the local alleys' league scores!
