Two straight blowouts, why should the AFC get an automatic Super Bowl berth?
We are seeing a blowout in the Super Bowl. Should the NFL panic and change the entire playoff format?

I remember when the Atlanta Falcons won the Super Bowl 28-3 before their lead just was magically whittled away.
Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Rs to "nationalize" elections: "We had 3 Republicans who were ahead on election day in last cycle & every time a new tranche of ballots came in they just magically whittled away until their leads were lost. It looks on its face to be fraudulent. Can I prove it? No"

9-9-6 was a Chinese term invented mostly to show how depressing and lifeless work culture was; watching softbrained AI guys adopt it as an ideal is ... well, entirely predictable

This is why I have real fucking problem with blithe criticisms of "polarization" or "congressional dysfunction." We have a Republican member blaming his colleague for being attacked.
The problem isn't polarization or dysfunction. It's the Republican Party.

If you are anxious and sad about the state of the world, that's fine, and there are plenty of strategies for dealing with that. But I think you already know that drive-by online dooming isn't a strategy. It's selfish and adolescent. It's a contagion that only spreads the worst of you, not the best.

I realize this is more subjective/narrative based than anything objective, but last night was a good example as to why I think it's important to have guys like Bryan Rust around through a rebuild instead of getting a 2nd-round pick or some B-level or prospect for him.

The Danish Social Democrats are currently on course for their worst election result since at least the Second World War, despite their brand of far-right accommodationism being touted as a blueprint for other centre-left parties.

Guys, Dan Lanning is not leaving Oregon. Like at all. Even if he wanted to, which he does not, the buyout for him to leave is $20 million through at least 2030. It is not happening.

There’s an old, cliche saying: “When someone tells you who they are, believe them.”
The Pittsburgh Pirates think we’re dumb. They think we’re oblivious.
If this story coupled with keeping Cherington around isn’t enough to show you that…I dunno, man.

blaming fans really sucks. we showed out and they shit all over us. i spent nearly all of my disposable income in college on this stupid team (well, and beer). it was never enough and will never be enough.

1. I am not worried about the Penguins being "too good." They won't be. Whatever talent they have on forward will be canceled out by the defense and goaltending. They will be a lottery team. Maybe not the worst team (Chicago), but they will be a lottery team.

Extraordinarily corrupt. I watched FCC chair Brendan Carr's full interview on Hannity. Carr basically said straight out that coverage of Trump he deems overly hostile can be decreed contrary to the "public interest," and thus grounds for yanking licenses:

I am not an economist, but there is so much obviously wrong here.
First, the government doesn't buy bonds. It sells bonds to pay for deficits.
Someone else buys bonds based on the risk and rate of return. Good luck selling 1% bonds after announcing you are going to fudge your economic numbers.

Trump: "I believe we should be 3 or 4 points lower. So that's over $1 trillion we pay every year in interest. And it's really just a paper calculation. You sign a document and you save almost a trillion dollars."
