- This story has been cracking me up for at least a month now. It'd be a cautionary tale about the power that homeowners attempt to exert over local government or how government shouldn't take citizens for granted except IT WAS A DISEASED TREE, THEY CUT IT DOWN FOR SAFETY REASONS
- I’m so happy my entire timeline is about Hawaii football rn, go ‘bows
- Maybe I'm missing something but why does the league need to be in the business of identifying which players deserve these contracts? The set of players teams want to pay more money and the set of players you need to keep in the league surely must be very close?
- Esme’s role in the first half was fascinating to watch—sometimes CB, sometimes RB, sometimes RCM, she did it all, even had a decent look at goal. Feels like a big synthesis moment for her growth as a passer this year
- Dang it Adrian some of us need to be able to sleep tonight
- Well that can’t be a good sign.
- Reposted by RickScrew it we're doing it now! I have nothing to do tonight and would love to talk about bobsled, skeleton and luge, so if you have questions about the sports I'm around to field them all evening! Fire away!
- I am about to get Rowdy at Audi
- @wmata.com there seem to be some technical difficulties occurring on car 7676
- SOFIA CANTORE WHAT HAVE YOU DONE??
- Wishing a very good rest of the morning to the cyclist who just vehemently shouted “Get the FUCK out the bike lane” to illegally parked cars on 15th street in Courthouse

- Lads we're finally getting the Mesut Ozil coffee shop at Audi
- Done deal, per sources: D.C. United have named Erkut Sogut their new sporting director. Sogut hasn't worked for a club or in MLS before. Previously a lawyer on agent side of the game. DCU also part ways with assistant GM Caleb Shreve, per sources. www.givemesport.com/dc-united-to...
- Another perfect Fullcast
- “A dime a dozen,” an insult that really gets more powerful with the passage of time
- Amanda never misses but I particularly enjoyed this novel (to me) insight.
- Got a story out today about something I’ve been fascinated by for years: From Atlanta hip hop to Bama RushTok, here’s how and why the South has taken such a firm grip on modern American culture. Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...
- Plus I'm a sucker for discourse about air conditioning
- This is very close to how I became an Everton fan. I don’t know why I’m like this either.
- On some episodes of Phantom Island, we wrestle with big questions all around the world of sports. On this episode, we poke into the psychology of @stevengodfrey.bsky.social as a sports fan and ponder if the universe WANTED him to adopt one of Spain's messiest soccer clubs.
- Reposted by RickIf you like CFB history you might like DEAD LETTERS, the @splitzoneduo.com about bad things happening to once-great college football programs. We are back today after two years away with this episode on Miami University and the last 20 years of the MAC
- Reposted by RickI’m so glad I’m writing a book so I can answer these and more questions

- HT reading with some new details on Jona’s impending French adventure @theathletic.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/639...
- I genuinely don’t see the difference between coach movement and player movement being drawn by the sources here. Feels like clear prioritization of OL over the Spirit to me.

- Natasha Cloud is Scary.
- Mystics fans been knew tho
- These are the sorts of games Indiana needs to learn how to win if they’re going to be in the championship conversation. I’m not quite sure they are there yet.
- Sometimes Sab misses two wide open threes and maybe you get away with it???
