The only rivalry "trophy" with any meaning anymore. Such a shame to lose the Bell/Mizzou rivalry for some corporate ass glass trophy named something bland.

@dukesmayobowl.bsky.social Your defending champ Minnesota Gopher fans are in a Chair-ity drive for pediatric cancer. Can we get some CFB online silliness to join forces and share this explainer post? We're trying to get to $15K for each Chair-ity and tell pediatric cancer to kick rocks.

I wrote fancy words about how SCOTUS, by writing no opinions, had left no precedents to bind it when a Dem retakes the White House — and then Justice Barrett just blurted it out.

Amy Coney Barrett defends heavy use of the shadow docket: "If we wrote a long opinion, it might give the impression that we have finally resolved the issue, and in none of these cases have we finally resolved the issue."

Been noticing that every video of ice showing up has people blowing whistles to alert the neighbors
unraveledpress.com
There are a tremendous number of ICE watchers out in Rogers Park this afternoon after some early morning abductions.

People are guarding churches and patrolling alleyways. Ran into Alderperson Hadden. First timers tell us they're primed and ready to use their whistles.

Rep. Jim Himes on Trump blowing up boats in the Caribbean: "The White House has not shared what they believe their legal justification is. They did put out a memo. I will tell you based on what I know now and the reading of that memo, these are illegal killings."

📌“The fact that I am American means, among other things, people can’t say, like they did about Francis, ‘he doesn’t understand the United States, he just doesn’t see what’s going on.’
“Do you not see the suffering? Is your conscience not disturbed?”

-Pope Leo in a direct rebuke of the hideous Trump

Everyone listen to this to hear the origins of the $5 Bits of Broken Chair Trophy, then go donate to the Chair-ity!

It's impossible to cover the origins of the trophy better than this, and we won't try. Instead we're going to talk about the weirdest final score in this rivalry: 15-2

if we are going to have a supreme court that is as powerful as it is, i basically think justices should be forbidden from public comment on their work as well as any supplemental source of income while they are on the bench. (they should also ride circuit again but that's a bit separate.)

The substance of what she's saying is bad and unconvincing, but more fundamentally, I really don't think Supreme Court justices should be going on book tours where they publicly comment on their work and respond to criticism of it. Either put it in a written opinion or hold your peace.

Even by college football's ridiculous standards, "Guy who had the No. 3 team in the country 15 days ago gets fired" is pretty mind-blowing.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.
I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.
Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.
