- How in the world, MSU
- I will be there for @detroitnews.com and have made plenty of jokes about the trophy already
- The actual funniest line in here is why Anderson Cooper might not work
- some personal news www.yahoo.com/entertainmen...
- Compiling "great Super Bowl outings by Michigan college alums" for @mittenfootball.bsky.social and SB XLV is loaded: GB: Greg Jennings (WMU), Frank Zombo (CMU), TJ Lang (EMU), Charles Woodson (UM), Cullen Jenkins (CMU) PIT: AB (CMU), Charlie Batch (EMU), LaMarr Woodley (UM), Larry Foote (UM)
- They have the Stalions Manifesto

If you have the means, your donation is most welcome. If you don't, a kind thought and maybe spreading the word to others is support enough 💙
- Born too late to work at SI during its glory years, born too early to battle SkyNet. Born just in time to watch cretinous billionaires destroy good things.
- “Speed dating with a game of musical chairs” — Pat Fitzgerald, on hosting around 100 families amidst the transfer recruitment process
- To wit: if one earned a million dollars *a day* from the time they were 18 to 65, they would end with around $17.1 billion over that span, or about 7% of Jeff Bezos’ current net worth.
- Reposted by Andrew Graham says sub to Mitten Footballagain we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are his net worth is $253.2 billion. so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire and then do it again tomorrow and again the day after that and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months
- Mhmmmmmmmm
- Reposted by Andrew Graham says sub to Mitten Footballthe $75 million Jeff Bezos set on fire for that Melania propaganda piece could have funded most independent newsrooms for literally decades
- We just kinda need to start putting billionaires out to sea on ice floes. (polite option)
- From a conversation earlier today I can share at least CMU HC Matt Drinkall is hip to getting rid of conference title games and moving the season up a week to get it all done sooner.
- Former Michigan K Adam Samaha is now on the EMU roster
- Not reinventing the wheel for anyone who knows but restaurant rec: Max and Emily's in Mt. Pleasant. Great sandwiches, nice throwback vibe, college town staple. Signed jerseys of Chippewa football greats on the walls make the gestalt.
- I think what he means to say (but doesn't) is the "psychology of people rationalizing their gambling failures," which is fascinating but also not a level of introspection you get from "guy explaining why Josh Naylor fucked up his parlay"
- Also just spoke with Matt Drinkall for about an hour about the Chippewas, transfer portal, 2026 roster, etc. — good stuff coming to Mitten Football, probably next week (got some other stuff planned for later this week/weekend).
- Bumping this from yesterday
- Spoke with CMU DE Michael Heldman over the weekend — caught up on his Shrine Bowl experience, his hopes for a combine invite and the training regimen he’s been on. Finished with 10.5 sacks in 2025 and hopes for an NFL shot: mitten-football.ghost.io/former-centr...
- Can Drake Maye do it on a cold rainy Sunday at Charlton?
- Trying to apply rhetorical principles of the tyranny of the majority to “don’t be, or associate with, child rapists” as if the minority opinion is in any way noble or defensible and not, yanno, caping for the cadre of child rapist acolytes.
- “.. Weiss insists she does not want to cut ties with Attia over his links to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, and sees it as giving in to the mob.” @calderone.bsky.social $PSKY www.thewrap.com/creative-con...
- Josh Shapiro is gormless

- Making homemade dried Serrano powder
- Throwing on the work coat to cosplay every man while [checks notes] doing a cable news hit from the Capital Rotunda is A Choice
- Who knew the left would get 2A in the national divorce
- Pirro: "You bring a gun into the District, you mark my words, you're going to jail. I don't care if you have a license in another district and I don't care if you're a law abiding law owner somewhere else. You bring a gun into this District, count on going to jail. And that makes all the difference"
- Campbell to EMU official
- I intellectually understand the criticism of “you bought your team” but it lands with no venom in the current climate because like… that’s what you’re supposed to do to an extent? Further, just buying good players ≠ winning. Ask any Kentucky fan.

- Pronouncing “Clavin” Harris in the Professor Frink voice/cadence.
- Also per the coaching staff page the Eagles appear to have hired former UM asst. WR coach Erik Campbell to be the EMU WR coach. Replaces Mike Hart who got elevated for like a month before leaving for BC.
- EMU has a DTs coach, pulling Zac Sias from the Kansas staff, per a release
- Wat
- You just gotta stop inviting shameless liars to lie on your air
- Nadame Tucker has made himself some serious money this week (and the last 6 months)
- Reposted by Andrew Graham says sub to Mitten FootballEpstein is the most garish and harrowing manifestation of this but oligarchy makes life miserable in a thousand other ways. A core point of democracy is that no one should have so much power that they can make themselves everybody's problem. We should have a political party that believes that
- The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll
- I have no attachment to or care for the City of Oakland in any particular regard and this made me sad, man
- Got @mittenfootball.bsky.social’s first dose of draft coverage coming on Monday, so be on the lookout!
