No Escalators

Why on earth would you follow me on a second website
@shutdownfullcast.bsky.social I liked when Jason said “to be clear we know some of you will listen to the non-football mailbag first but as an FYI we recorded football first” and I responded in my head “it’s sweet they think I’ll listen to the football one”
Listening to Bill Simmons explain to Mina Kimes why he thinks Drake Maye is the fourth best QB in football

US Senate my entire life: [/worthless] US Senate after a quirk in the system makes it easier for UConn to pay a power forward than Arkansas: “we will pass a bill so fast”
This includes a bunch of guys who are going to get cut in NFL training camps over the next month doesn’t it lol
NCAA had two options: A) Begrudgingly let all of last year’s seniors have a 5th year but move seamlessly into a 5-in-5 world B) Not do that, knowing they’d get sued, which would invite chaos if they lost, which they always do.

Call me Kermit the frog, the way I’m pulling this pork
Dan Hurley says UConn is not “looking for 23, 24 year olds overseas” or “a guy that’s played pro for seven years.” Real mystery who he’s thinking of 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Ronaldo ain’t letting his team crash out of a World Cup Final with zero shots you know
No shots on target by Argentina what is this the Falklands war
I'm watching in germany. The German commentators kept quiet for nearly the whole thing until suddenly the shot widened and we just hear with a German accent, "Oh, Miss Piggy"
Getting ready for my personal World Cup Final: watching Europeans post about the World Cup Final having a halftime show
My exact level of suburban dad is “proud of how efficiently I can break down a watermelon, but have not yet watched a YouTube video to see if there is a better way.” Also I call it “breaking down” a watermelon.
Spain vs. Argentina, the battle of “I am afraid to ask what side your grandfather was on”
The whole theater cheered but honestly when they made it past Scylla and Charybdis and Matt Damon looked into the camera and said “wow what an odyssey this has been” they lost me a bit
Had a moment of deep self-loathing today when I walked past The Rizzler, said to a normal person co-worker “that’s The Rizzler” and then they said “who is The Rizzler” and I had to explain
Putting my small children to bed and settling in for a fun night of reading strangers post about “seeing a movie in a theater”
The Odyssey? You mean a decades-long quest to be taken seriously that includes early success, pointless excursions, weird sirens, fantastical objects, and at the end of the day what is it for? Never heard of it. I watch UConn football instead.
Noting that the undisputed most entertaining World Cup ever came after America forced the game to be played in quarters instead of halves and humbly suggesting that maybe the rest of the world should hear us yanks out on the offsides rule and red card appeals?
England losing is funny but not nearly as funny as the fact that 72 hours from now all those guys have to go play a third place game outdoors in Miami in July.
Even in a world where Indiana football can get it done, England remains
In retrospect Tuchel probably shouldn’t have borrowed his second half strategy from Henry V
Really disappointing that this guy wasn’t also holding a baguette and smoking a cigarette
France World Cup sites: NY (2x), Philly (2x), Boston (2x), and today, Texas. The French really do just give it away west of the Mississippi huh
Overheard in an airport Margaritaville location: Waitress: “Customer is asking if we have this flavored tequila listed on the menu?” Bartender: “That thing says we have vegetables too”
