‘Bear Down’: How a songwriter’s challenge became Chicago’s rallying cry
Chicago’s favorite fight song, “Bear Down,” began as bet among songwriters. It ended up being a city’s rallying cry.

@danieljtgallen.bsky.social Nice article on Drew Allar's take on his performance. 3 years in as starter and does not seem to be easy yet. And of course, Beau Pribula's Heisman like performances at Mizzou probably adds some pressure. Beau is a super star!

Can he try any harder to LOSE every farmer vote from California (Migrant losses) to the Midwest (Corn farmers who supply stock for Coke Corn Syrup)? I don't know how a farmer could ever support this guy again.
PLEASE TALK ABOUT ANYTHING OTHER THAN EPSTEIN. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

When I first saw this interview, I thought Trump's response was strange. Now I see it as totally revealing. Elon Knows. And Swan is a GREAT interviewer - this is how Trump should be interviewed by everyone.

Does anyone have data on DOGE cuts in Federal Budget to SpaceX? Musk/Trump would have more credibility if they make comparative cuts to Musk budgets. Without this detail, how can we trust Musk is cutting "fairly"?

Loved “ A Complete Unknown”. Inspired me to revisit Dylan’s early “Freewheeling” album and I was genuinely shocked how great it is. I tend to focus more on his later works. But “FW” showcases his extraordinary writing chops.

I really cannot imagine anyone could have handled the Northern Illinois loss — and everything that happened after — as well as Marcus Freeman did.
What a credit to his leadership and the mental/physical toughness of this Notre Dame team.

@childersradio.bsky.social I agree with this assessment. The outrage from pundits following the very first game (@ND) of the playoffs was ridiculous. The Playoff committee got it right. Unfortunately the reality is that any team not in the the top 6 - won't be terribly competitive.
✍️ COLUMN: The CFB pundits owe Indiana and SMU an apology for dragging them.
Alabama's loss to Michigan's backups was a reminder that hypothetical point spreads don't mean anything. Tennessee got blown out, too. South Carolina lost.

For about 15 years, the SEC ruled postseason college football.
So far in 2024? The Big Ten has taken the mantle, punctuated by Tuesday's action.

@childersradio.bsky.social Coach had Premature "Stock Up" for Kalen DeBoer today. I was befuddled he picked him for Stock up before the bowl game today. I don't want to hear any more Whining from Bama/SEC about the playoffs.
Last time Alabama didn’t win 10 games was Saban’s first year in 2007. He immediately informed offensive coordinator Major Applewhite after the Independence Bowl he should seek employment elsewhere. DeBoer, you know what you have to do with Nick Sheridan.

The thing about the Trump-Russia collusion is that they don’t actually have to directly coordinate when it’s so well known that the two are in free association with one another.
Like, even if Trump’s campaign never asked for this directly it was obvious that they’d benefit from and approve of it.

"Given Trump’s history of soliciting election interference and the ties between Trump and Russia in 2016, there certainly should be an investigation of whether Trump’s campaign knew about the bomb threats beforehand, or was involved in coordinating them."
