Last year, one of my papers on women's concussions was profiled on CBS with Brianna Scurry (!!!!).

TLDR version: The concussion protocols are used to treat everyone, but based about 80% on male athlete data. We need more data diversity in concussion research!

Gender gap in concussion research leaves female athletes struggling
80% of sports concussion research has focused on men, possibly leaving women without the care they need.

On one hand, that sucks, on the other, it's the Phillies, I spent so much of my life them being the Pirates.
Sadly — with their starting pitching esp if Painter develops they are set up to win 85-90 games again.
So we will be right back watching them flame out in the playoffs again next year lol

Public anger comes for John Roberts

The chief justice’s summer retreat in Maine used to be one of boating, potluck dinners, touch football and easy friendships. Locals called him “John.”

Now a swirl of anger has been rising at him, transforming his getaways. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/u...

After decades of potlucks and paddle-boarding on Maine’s midcoast, rising anger and protests have left the Supreme Court’s chief justice more isolated than ever.

Professor Debbie Ging cited a result that a third of Gen Z boys believe that women should obey their husbands.

“For the first time in this research, we're seeing a really huge backslide where younger boys have more aggressive attitudes politically towards gender issues than their grandfathers.”

I’m the guy at NHL HQ who’s in charge of making sure all of our major events get overshadowed by things in other sports, they gave me a huge raise for putting the season opener at 5 pm on a weekday at the same time as Game 1 of the MLB playoffs

I attended Cornell 175 years ago (Hello Ezra ole buddy) but I remember enough and know enough people who still work in Ithaca services that… I think I still can say however bad you think the “culture” is there by reading this week, it’s likely exponentially worse.

#TedLasso mini-spoiler: did you all catch the soundtrack from All The President’s Men when Higgins was investigating the share sales? Writing on his yellow legal pad? Underground meeting with cigarette? “Did you come alone?” And “Follow the….” Amazing homage.

In which Eric Schmitt, rumored candidate for VP in an (ugh) JD Vance 2028 presidential run, pre-emptively loses 22 electoral votes in Georgia and Iowa
A phenomenal moment in the Senate.

Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta.

Smith denies it.

Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury.

Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland.

Based on EPA per drive, that's the Eagles' worst offensive performance of the last four seasons.

9 possessions: 4 punts, 3 turnovers, 1 failed 4th down, 1 TD.

Eagles have zero positive EPA per drive through 3 games? That seems bad. #FlyEaglesFly
#Eagles game by game advanced stats through Week 3.

I would rather see the Broncos win for my friends, but that was not pass interference, and also he caught the ball in bounds.

I mean, anything less than that would just be ridiculous? I think there's an argument to send them to League 2. But ultimately, that will be up to the EFL really. I can see why they could be keen though. Oldham and Fleetwood might fancy the numbers on the gate.
