Last night I booted up my CFB26 save and saw that Penn State rehired James Franklin after already firing him once. Having real-life coaches is the best part of that game.

The fact that a candidate saying this stuff has to fight his own party establishment, while old news, is nevertheless utterly crazy-making

Graham Platner for Senate @grahamformaine.bsky.social · 3h

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Pity the World Series was canceled that year, we'll never know whether the Blue Jays could've defended their 1992 title

I suspect public sentiment will be with the three teams that collectively haven't won a pennant since 1993

Mike Petriello @mikepetriello.bsky.social · 17h

Dodgers vs Brewers.

Mariners vs Blue Jays.

That's just full of fantastically fun stories and potential matchups. Can't wait.

Probably a unique experience to watching Jacob Misiorowski: Seeing 93 on the gun, panicking for a second because he must be hurt, then remembering that this is the changeup

Penn State should go after Mike Elko. He Knows The Area, he's got the right accent, and he's already winning at Penn State-Gulf Coast

Just in terms of who do you actively trust the options are pretty narrow

I spent quite a bit of time this off-season wondering which coach had the most juice. Saban's gone, Dabo's getting old, De Boer and Day just barely outran pariah status, and Kirby looks more like Uga with each passing week.
I think this is the right answer.

Curt Cignetti up to No. 1 on the list of Best Coaches Who Haven't Won A Title Yet. James Franklin, goodbye. Dan Lanning, you are down at No. 2

I'm going to watch REDS later. For anyone who'd like to partake, it's streaming for free on Russian social media, which, I'd like to think Louise Bryant would approve of m.ok.ru/video/233097...

"I think you're making a huge mistake" is the ur-dick move. Do you think you're gonna talk her into picking you? Or are you just trying to sow seeds of doubt on your way out the door just to make her feel bad? Have some self-respect, Moneybags

The one upside of the Phillies losing is I can now catch up on Love Is Blind, which gives me some much-needed perspective. Because no Philly Sports Black Thursday is ever gonna make me as angry as Real Estate Mike

I wonder if Pog is OK, he only did his big attack inside the last 40 km, and he let Quinn Simmons hang around for like 30 seconds instead of doing a driveby

As Democrats contemplate a 2026 or 2028 run and wonder what message will most motivate voters, they need to understand that the minimum opening bid is vengeance.

To restore the rule of law, Democrats must enforce the constitution with brass knuckles like there’s nothing to lose. Because there isn’t.
