Sometimes you listen to a CFB recap and you learn who won the big game last weekend. Other times you listen to @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social After Dark and @hollyanderson.bsky.social tells you she hears He Who Walks Behind during ESPN commercials.

Rodger Sherman@rodger.bsky.social · 2d agoman I just can't get over how many bad decisions Arch makes. as a senior with all the training in the world. he's got an arm, he's athletic, but of all the people in the world he should be the one who doesn't make these plays

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Max@2xaught7.ing · 4d agoThe coloring on the ESPN broadcast for the Sharks/Blues is terrible. High contrast.
The common denominator between bad INTs with Craig and Hoover… Sonny Yikes
Chris Vannini@chrisvannini.com · last wk.TCU QB Jaden Craig has thrown 4 INTs in less than five games, this one BYU returns deep into TCU territory. All the preseason hype about Craig was how he doesn't turn the ball over like Josh Hoover did. It's an issue.
This has really cracked open something for me. I had been thinking about free speech discourse in terms of hypocrisy, but this illuminates a much more consistent throughline (derogatory).

@jasonkirk.fyi 100% knew Cal was in the ACC. Yet I thought Clemson was playing a “buy” game on the road at 10pm because I just learned from this week’s @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social that they are aka UC Berkeley?! Is that not a D3 school?

@surber.bsky.social the highest praise I can give for the Gilmore Girls pod is that I paused it 95 minutes in because I didn’t want more spoilers for a show I never intended to watch. S1E1 tonight.
@jmjones.bsky.social what do the italics in your newsletter designate? I can’t for the life of me understand why some words get it, and others don’t, but I’m sure there’s a style guide dictating it.
