Herbstreit should know better than anybody why letting someone try doing two jobs is a bad idea because he used to be a good college football announcer, but yesterday he sleepwalked through Eagles-Bears and today he’s belching out half-baked college football takes
Kirk Herbstreit implores Ole Miss administrators to allow Lane Kiffin to coach the Rebels — if he leaves for LSU — and let him finish what he and his players started.

I pledged to report an Epstein episode if we can hit 40,000 YouTube views on one of my favorite PTFO episodes ever — which is about competitive bird-watching — by this Tuesday (Dec. 2).

Have some Salami. And some Coolidge. And some Thorpe. In this week’s installment of Autopilot we look back to the start of The White Shadow, as self-aware as white savior stories come. This show was 10-year-old Vognar’s jam. It also turned out to be a future directors factory.

This is excellent work from Chris.
A chance encounter on Route 1 this summer provided a glimpse into TreVeyon Henderson’s off-field character, and served as the latest example as to why some around Foxborough believe he’ll eventually become the team’s spiritual successor to Matthew Slater.

“That’s just Trey. That’s who he is.”

Off the field, the rookie running back is quiet, humble, almost painfully earnest, and seemingly always focused on doing the right thing.

I think often of the time Trump needed a "cheat sheet" to remember to say things like "I hear you" to people who lost children and other family members in the Parkland school shooting in 2018.

I think we can safely say that the Leavitt's brother called ICE on his ex, the mother of his child, and I have to say: I have no desire to respect, find common ground or share the country with these monsters.
“After Ferreira was detained, Dos Santos Rodrigues said Michael Leavitt Sr. and his father, Bob Leavitt, reached out to her.”

“‘They just kept saying, ‘Tell her to self-deport,’” she recalled. “Self-deport to where? Brazil is not her home.’” www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/26/m...

In the Thanksgiving Week edition of the mailbag, we have questions about the play-calling, the offensive line, Mike Vrabel’s mustache, and more. Let’s get to it.

Josh McDaniels has had a pretty good year, but that goal-line sequence against the Bengals was likely the most forgettable of the season.
