Football Bozo, WMU alum, Detroit sports enthusiast, Oregon Football fan. I’ve never found a problem I can’t start fixing. He/Him.
As a Western Michigan alum, I have three points that I think will dictate how this plays out.

1. Sportsbooks have already paid out.
2. Michigan is an institution made up primarily of litigious nerds.
3. Ignore points 1 and 2, WMU won 12-7. Go Broncos!

“I will fight for Sorbsy’s right to bet on his own football games” is certainly a position to take into a Texas midterm. I wonder how all of the Texans (outside of Lubbock) feel about Paxton actively contributing to the deterioration of competitive integrity in CFB.
NEW: Texas AG Ken Paxton sent a formal letter to Big 12 officials threatening legal action if the conference moves to sanction Texas Tech over its support of QB Brendan Sorsby.

Shout out to Discord for demanding sensitive personal information to “protect kids.” I thought their job was to be a chat app, and not a parent.

Needless to say, their assurances that they won’t keep that data falls on pretty deaf ears after they let 70,000 peoples’ ID’s get stolen last year.

A lot of people are looking for scapegoats with the Patriots today and yeah, there was some bad play and some bad coaching.

Mostly, as I keep saying, the Seahawks were just THAT GOOD. Their coaching is that good. Their players are that good. Give them the credit.

Spent a lot of time today thinking about the takes involving the Darnold-Smith trade -- I know it wasn't technically a trade, but, yes it was -- and man some awfully smart people were awfully wrong. And I kinda think that's great? Sports would be so freaking boring if process always equaled result.

All the kids are putting 6 and 7 together, but us old heads know that 6 is afraid of 7 ever since the incident with 9.

These reboots are getting ridiculous. The Republicans are out here busting out a sequel to the 2003 hit “Dudes I swear this Middle-Eastern Nation has WMD’s.”

I tried making an X account, and it banned me when they detected I was an actual person.

Hey, NFL team owners out there looking for a lame-duck GM to ride out your crappy cap situations, I’m your guy. For a paltry $5,000,000 AAV, I can take the ire of your fanbase and run your franchise into the ground for a fresh start with a real GM. My DM’s are open.

Cory Booker has now started singing Aretha Franklin’s 2016 Thanksgiving rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. Seems he’s daring the Senate to stand as long as he has.

Did you know that all Amazon orders over $35 qualify for free shipping? It’s a great option for the things you can’t find literally anywhere else, while avoiding paying another subscription.

As always, try to shop direct from the seller first.

If you ever have imposter syndrome, just remember that someone at the BBWA left Ichiro off their HOF ballot and still has their job. You’re doing just fine.

Buying an big, cheap Amazon-branded “smart” TV is like having a fast car because you drove it off a cliff. I regret this purchase every day.
