I should start making a post after every iRacing race I do where I pretend I’m a real race car driver

Wow congrats to Godfrey on the nomination

I had low expectations and it’s somehow worse. It’s hard for me to think of a worse debut season for a coach inheriting a team that went to a bowl game

I was lucky enough to see this last Friday night when I was in Chicago and it was definitely a top two event I’ve gotten to attend because I just happened to be visiting the right city at the right time

Pennsylvania Republicans are aiming to erase Democrats' majority on the state supreme court in November.

But this sort of push has virtually no precedent or template in this state, making a weird campaign where everyone is trying to find their mark.

A great new read:

Inside the Clunky Elections to Control Pennsylvania's Supreme Court - Bolts

The GOP is making an expensive push to end Democrats’ majority on a court at the center of election lawsuits, sparking a fledging campaign season with little precedent or template.

He’s already played for a team that plays home games at Heinz Field

I tried to schedule a flight during this race, my least favorite on the schedule and now the flight is delayed. Guess I’m watching this at my gate

The current ones I watch are really topical. The state of the country has left us with plenty of terrible people for Elsbeth to catch for murder, for example

Easily my favorite car I’ve ever gotten as a rental car

Well, after yesterday’s results, it’s clear Tino Sunseri was the problem at UCLA. Pitt now has no choice but to #ExtendNarduzzi #PittBS

I'm wheezing.

Now, UCLA's interim head coach, Tim Skipper, is tied with Franklin with one career top-10 win against a Big Ten opponent.

It’s fine I missed the Pitt game today for a boat tour and a different football game and I inadvertently bought an all inclusive food/beverage seat for the game so I had beers and now I’m drunk because I have a large food/beverage credit at this hotel so it was cocktails or steak I don’t like steak

We get Miami at home at the end of November, maybe it snows?

Arthur From Pittsburgh @pittpost.bsky.social · 3d

Hard to say b/c with expanded playoff, individual losses have less impact than used to. There are lots of games that were more costly to lose, but in terms of a team like UCLA beating a team with the expectations of Penn State I’m struggling to find a comparison. ‘07 Pitt was way better than UCLA

Goddamn it I want to call into the @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social phone line but there’s somebody in my train car playing The Weeknd at full volume on their phone and smoking a cigarette
