I'm TK, aka T-Dog, aka Thomas, aka That App State Fan, aka the GIF guy.

This should be the first response anyone has to one of those people who say "man I wish I grew up in the 1990s." They would be gasping for air like a WW1 soldier going into literally any restaurant.

This is what’s so frustrating about former players inundating media spaces—if you’re a media member in that presser you *have to* ask these questions to McVay. This was by far the biggest storyline surrounding the Rams heading into this game, it’s 100% fair game. Not to mention he’s still going!
Sean McVay's answer specific to Puka criticizing officials and this tweet that was deleted. Also Richard Sherman criticizing the line of questioning and saying the media should have asked about the game and asked them about this stuff later

My local airport has signs reminding people that not all disabilities are visible to outsiders. A good reminder.
There is also no evidence anywhere in this piece of a single person faking a disability, just TikTok videos and speculation by others about who "really" needs a wheelchair.

@tombogert.bsky.social @mattdoyle.bsky.social I'd like to hear your thoughts on Wilfried Nancy's Celtic struggles as there's rumors of him being sacked already.

YES. I'm using Kim Mulkey as the stand-in because
her behavior is so appalling. But she's far from alone! And if it were occasional blow-ups, sure. Fine. That happens. But coaches talk about being role models but don't include their sideline behavior, and that's a problem.

No one said it's ALL Kim's fault.
But Kim isn't exactly blameless with her sideline histrionics and antics. She is part of the problem, not the sole problem.
However, listing EVERY problematic coach exceeds the word limit on here, so....

I use to work in a town that is big on baseball. Parents would gleefully tell stories about certain coaches and parents would be thrown out of tournaments for arguing umps like it was the birth of their child. One step away from Randy Marsh from South Park, but unironically.
Why would anyone want to be an official for women's hoops when you see how Kim Mulkey abuses officials and gets no punishment for it? Or a Little League umpire when parents spew torrents of abuse about a 10-year-old's game? And shortages at the lower levels affects the pipeline.

After thinking its season was over for eight days and having to call players near and far, this is how App State is looking player-wise for the Birmingham Bowl in 11 days.

This evening my nerves were frayed for no specific reason. Just a complete mess, wasn't hungry for the meal I made, wasn't sure what to do.
So I got some ice cubes, poured some tap water and drank one glass. Then a second. Now I'm on my third glass of water and feel so relaxed, about to sleep.
