So The Terminator series is about to play out in real life, that's swell.
Pete Hegseth: "The future of American warfare is here, and it's spelled AI."
He says the military has launched a new platform that "puts the world's most powerful frontier AI models, starting with Google Gemini, directly into the hands of every American warrior."

Yes, congrats to @brianoliu.bsky.social for winning the confidence points pool, and congrats to the winner of our spread pool… my mother.
I will never hear the end of this.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.

Refs just screwed the Ravens. Then John Harbaugh screwed them by not calling a TO when it was obvious the offense wasn’t ready. Todd Monken was also in on the gangbang by calling yet another play where lineman are unblocked and make the tackle.

With every dumb Ravens loss I hope this is finally the time John Harbaugh's overrated ass gets fired. Yet, he remains.
I'm not sure Steve Bischotti is even paying attention at this point.

Maybe the worst negative effect of TV running college football now is that "journalists" have just become shills for whatever teams/conferences their employers cover.
If the committee puts Miami ahead of Notre Dame in its final rankings, then it needs to explain why it didn't flip the order of those two teams at ANY point in the previous month.
Neither of these teams played this weekend. The committee put itself in this situation.

Alright, let's check in on this so I don't yell at the TV too much.
Myself and Mal are 4-2 so far, while Blaine and Greg are 2-4.
Blaine and me have Under 47.5 in the SEC CG, Mal has the Dawgs -2.5 and Greg has Bama and the points.

For conference championship weekend, we force our writers to take a stance on all of the weekend's games plus one from the NFL. It's make or break time. thealabamatake.com/b...

Alright, since we had a few picks yesterday let's get an pudate.
Blaine went 1-1 yesterday, and Greg went 2-0. Myself and Mal had no picks.
Blaine has Mich +10 as his last college pick. I also have the Wolverines, as well as BYU -17.5, so I'm just doing GREAT so far (my 3rd pick is SMU -13.5).

If the Ravens lose tonight John Harbaugh should be fired.
I am so beyond ready to see them coached by anyone else.

Super great night for the Ravens. One TD lost because Likely was carrying the ball like a jackass, another TD lost on the softest OPI flag I’ve ever seen in a league where they NEVER call OPI.

I am begging someone to buy the Champions League rights from Paramount. Paramount+ is such a garbage app - it’s clunky and slow with a poor interface… if it even works at all, which it is currently not.

Alright, let's see how terrible we did today.
Blaine did not do terrible, he went 3-0, with the Pats -6 tomorrow.
I was, in fact, terrible, going 0-3. Need the Bucs +6.5 to save me from a donut.
Mal went 2-1, with the Eagles -3 tomorrow.
Greg also went 0-3, and has the Jets +13.5 tomorrow.

It's Week Thirteen, normally reserved for weak opponents so teams can prep for their hated rivals. Does that happen as much this season? What are the safest bets? Find out in the weekly Taking Bets column! thealabamatake.com/b...
