I’m good with Mac Jones since he’s a Niner and holding it down while Brock’s out, but I won’t stand for slander against pickle juice.

Bananas, sports drinks, IV bags and… pickle juice?

49ers players like Mac Jones turn to unique remedies to alleviate cramping during games.

Caveat: nominate anybody else who won’t then pick him as a running mate.

Can’t be too careful.

Not so quiet if you’re the Panthers or Lightning…😬

I know we JUST finished #USOC2025, but we've got *59* qualifiers for #USOC2026 this weekend (Oct. 11-12). We need reporters to cover the games (or at least provide updates). Our full list of cities we need help with are in the comments.

That is EITHER a CRW win or a CRW draw with OMA loss/draw.

Ranting Blue Penguin Media @rbpenguinmedia.bsky.social · 2d

WES clinches the wooden spoon with a loss or a TEX v. RIC draw. However, if TEX or RIC win, and WES gets at least a point from NAP, they delay the spoon by at least a week.

A CLT win eliminates TEX and RIC

A Knox win or OMA loss clinches top 4
A CRW win or draw with OMA loss/draw clinches top 4

Other scenarios this week: TRM clinches with a win vs. SPK. HOP clinches with a win vs. Knox, or a point with MAD and AV dropping points.

MAD beating CRW and HOP drawing/winning keeps OMA barely alive for the shield.

Westchester is an interesting one…

In case anyone forgot after last night’s marathon…

IT’S BELT WEEK, BÚHOS!

And not just the Belt on the line. A Greenville loss with a Charlotte win puts the Triumph on the brink of missing the playoffs for the first time in their history, so you know they’re going to be up for it.

Even better that I’m reading this while waiting for a Starbucks order on a military installation.

Three of you count the media/box seats entry point

Ranting Blue Penguin Media @rbpenguinmedia.bsky.social · 2d

Three points, and the playoffs!!!

Union Omaha @unionomaha.bsky.social · 2d

That's three points secured and so much more, just how we drew it up! Y'know, despite all that conspired to keep this match from finishing.

We love you guys. Thanks for sticking with us. 🫶

Yeah, you get to appeal to guest services. We get “under no circumstances”.

It’s definitely not just a Werner Park thing. Storm Chasers allow re-entry if you get your ticket scanned on exit. However, every Union Omaha match I’ve been to they announce No re-entry under any circumstances.

Ranting Blue Penguin Media @rbpenguinmedia.bsky.social · 3d

To be fair, that match is probably what’s caused this.

That and being down 1-0.

A drive into deep left field…

All of this to say that if it’s truly not safe, don’t play. But it’s going to be so frustrating if we can’t continue.

We need Umbrella by Rhianna, but using the video of Tom Holland’s Lip Sync Battle rendition.

Union Omaha @unionomaha.bsky.social · 3d

Just to keep you guys posted: weather has cleared up, so we've been working on the field and evaluating play conditions.

Should have another update soon!
