You have to think how utterly soul-destroying it must be to be so low down the pecking order of the pro-Iran hacking groups that you are sent to sort-of take down Bluesky.

the 2024 USC game notwithstanding, fuck off Koi. “I just wanted to be on a contender and a great program. I think Oregon is both of those. There’s a lot of great coaches, great players here. And with both of those in the equation, you’re going to have a lot of success. Hopefully I can add to that.”

Sports Take: A quote from a Charlotte reporter's interview with Naz Reid may make you tear up. So could Twins reliever Tommy Nance talking about playing in the Field Of Dreams game. Bringing you cheer, we have Kayla McBride, Paige Bueckers and Mascot Hall of Famer @chaoticgoldy.bsky.social.

“You embarrassing hogs better vote for me” is the kind of generational political instinct that would get me to quit my job asking Sean McCay about what the Rams need to do better in the second half.

Did I forget my breakfast? NO! I wanted to get PopTarts out of the vending machine to celebrate the imminent return of #CFB. Also I might have forgotten my breakfast.

Indiana is also currently 5th in the standings, which all things considered, seems appropriate. #WNBA

I would like to assure everyone that new #GopherFB Special Teams Coordinator Daniel Da Prato has told me that the famous "Lucy holding the football" situation will *NOT* occur under his watch. I am baffled why the UMN Bookstore has chosen to commemorate this. #GopherFB @ryanburnsmn.bsky.social

Ole "Viking" Savior and Ashley "Skol" Johnson would be leading the DFL Gubernatorial Primary if one of them had changed the Vikings reference to a #Gophers reference. that is my only comment on the MN Elections tonight. GO GOPHERS.

every day, the air is a little bit crisper. the daylight a tiny bit shorter. a few more people walking around Dinkytown that there were last week. and in the distance, you hear it. "ROW. ROW. ROW. ROW. ROW. ROW." as the student section sways in unison. 24 days. #GopherFB #RTB #CFB

congrats to her on finding an activity where she can make even fewer points

This would be great if her fans could read.

Honestly, this is just a fucking child’s view of the world. “Send diplomats” no fucking way, damn, that’s crazy, why didn’t anybody think of that before. Minsk II isn’t real and it can’t hurt me

A 6-6, 235-pound WR with an 82 1/2-inch wingspan who runs a 10.1 100M? A 327-pound DT who hit almost 21 MPH?!? And Jeremiah Smith clocked what this off-season?!? The 2026 Freaks List--free story link: www.nytimes.com/athletic/750...
