Livin' the dream

For some reason my Google home has become obsessed with trying to play Song 2 by Blur after just about any song today. The whole experience after it started to use Gemini has been pretty bad, but now we're really just into weird territory.

It is an odd feeling when you search for something on Google, only to have the AI response at the top literally quote your own Reddit post from the past back to you (which may or may not have been an accurate answer)

After two seasons and 34 games, Bears QB Caleb Williams has an interception rate of 1.2%, which is the lowest in NFL history for a quarterback with at least 1,000 pass attempts (h/t Bears PR).

I will say it right here .... Cal Raleigh or Junior Caminero will win this Homerun Derby BUT Oneill Cruz won the aesthetic and eye test portion of this competition with Willie Stargell like majestic HRs as illustrated by the 513 FT blast ...... Oh and if you never saw a WIllie Stargell HR .....

A Yankee fan with a duct tape name of "Sellout" on a yankee jersey. A) Gotta love those "true Yankee" fans with any name on the back of a jersey, lol B) Sellout? Oh that is RICH coming from the team that is historically the king of sellout players

It's kind of funny listening to the ESPN commentary trying to find legit excuses for why Shedeur Sanders hasn't been drafted.. I'm starting to think that the NFL owners are more just making it obvious that no rookie is calling the shots where they wind up. This feels like a pretty clear message #NFL

Not being able to stop the other offense is one thing, but giving them a free first down because of a coaching blunder of 12-men on the field is why Campbell will never win a Superbowl. Also all of the time off the clock at the end, but they were already cooked by that point.

All you want in college basketball is a team that can make it to the dance and then have the potential to knock off some top teams- WVU has proven already that they are one of these teams- nice win today!

Quick opinions on the new TGL golf league: - Please stop using cities/locations in team names that have zero ties to them (bowling does this too) - The loser-point in the NHL is terrible, why would you want that? A simple W/L record is fine - 15 holes? Odd choice - Sims should sim lie and wind also

Watching a Rose Bowl trophy ceremony with now TWO more games left to win before you can win a National Championship feels so weird. It's like a NBA/NHL team going full celebration after winning a 2nd round series.

I am assuming like most things it comes down to $$$, but wouldn't it be cool if the NYE shows would have musical acts from the current year instead of from 30 years ago? I feel like I'm sending off 1995 here. #newyears

Quite surprising that Ryan Poles, a former offensive lineman himself, would GM a team with possibly the NFL's worst offensive line for years now. I just don't get it. #bears

Only two games into the #CFP but it's pretty obvious that weak schedules prob shouldn't be rewarded with spots if you want competitive games for us to watch
