Shouldn't the conquistadors be the mascot for the international team?
I get the mentality of not wanting to be a bandwagoner, but I’ve put myself through enough losing seasons without a plan. When the same common denominator is still in charge, without end in sight, enough is enough, for sanity reasons.

I still watch. Just not every game like I used to.
I’m an Angels fan who agrees with this. I’m still a fan, but the days of me pouring all my energy into this team are over until Arte sells or they’re competitive. There’s a difference between supporting a team when it’s down and supporting the literal worst playoff drought in American pro sports.
Angels fans, it’s OK to stop. Trust me. As someone who did it, it’s perfectly acceptable. You don’t have to stay. You’re not required to. You can come back when they’ve earned it. You owe it to yourselves. It doesn’t make you a fair-weather fan. It makes you rational.
I think you're right. Beamer's legacy strong despite 2010 VT/JMU. ND/NIU didn't affect things ultimately. Muschamp already having terrible year in Georgia Southern-Florida.

Previously winless UCLA upsets Penn State
Watching baseball and football at 10 a.m. is special.

UCLA’s funds reinstated after yesterday’s court order! Thanks to the brave researchers and their amazing counsel, including Dean Chemerinsky, who brought suit. This is just another turn in the ongoing fight, but a great result for now.
True sickos live for the Hawaii Test.
I assume it's because it's more expensive to broadcast over radio in LA than in Knoxville (but USC has an online-only Spanish broadcast, so it's not fully excused).
Joey Aguilar at a school with a Spanish broadcast is fitting. I don't believe UCLA has one.
As called by Carlos Lopez on Tennessee Volunteers Spanish Radio:

The stakes for UCLA: they have to decide if they want to compete in football or whether they’re going to fold the program.

If they don’t choose to compete in the next few years then they’re going to choose to fold when they get left out of the super league one day.

Never seen the first down line chase the runner before, couldn't keep up
Still losing despite two stops on 4th and goal and a muffed punt. Life, but at what cost?
UCLA HAS LIFE
I just watched UCLA not call a timeout when New Mexico had a 4th and goal under two minutes left, letting the clock run all the way down. Then with :01 left from midfield, UCLA runs instead of throwing a Hail Mary.
Listening to the announcer try to make sense of DeShaun Foster’s clock management and not call it horrific is the most entertaining part of the UCLA football season
Somehow not high enough. If I could add UCLA football to this, would be epic.

What worries me about (quote)AI(unquote) isn't that it will do a better job... it's that it will do a worse job and corporations (and audiences) will see that as "close enough".

I'm holding out hope that most of us want better than that in our books, music, movies, tv, and yes, tutorial videos too.
Flip 7 has a really good rule book, I learned it in a couple of minutes. Using AI to generate a rulebook is completely unnecessary!
"If you flip a 7, things get interesting. The 7 card has a special power: the player who flips it has to draw another card from the deck. If the new card is also a 7, the player has to draw another card, and so on."

Can we please stop with the AI 💩? kthx.
OMG... Flip 7 is so complicated, Asmodee UK decided to let AI take a crack at the rules...
(the screenshot is only the start of this.. this... this.) #Boardgames

AI will screw us all
