You know, there was another Falcons QB whose first NFL pass was a pick six…
Devin Lloyd welcomes Jack Strand to the NFL with a pick-six. Woof.

Panthers 34-3.

Michigan's 2-0 and Ohio State's 1-1, lol.

I always found it admirable that Dolly seemed totally awestruck by Whitney’s “I Will Always Love You”

No jealousy, no protectiveness of her own work, just joy that somebody had taken the song she wrote and made something new and special out of it.

If Tony Pettiti were in charge of World Cup expansion, 36 of the 48 teams would have been from Europe. You want a fun and exciting ride? Actually expand access and invite the underdogs.

A piece I was born to write: What CFP expansion could learn from from the World Cup. www.espn.com/college-foot...
What College Football Playoff expansion could learn from the 2026 World Cup
World Cup expansion had its critics, but access was a goal. That hasn't been the thing for the CFP.

"I don’t really be on social media. I don’t be on Twitter, because that is a toxic app. So I couldn’t tell you, honestly, but I’m going to say: for athletes, if you play sports, or women’s sports, stay off Twitter. Because those people are crazy on there."
South Carolina's Raven Johnson:

"I don't be on Twitter, because that is a toxic app."

I'll get the rest of the quote in a few minutes - I wasn't quite paying attention as I was working on something else. But I certainly perked up when I heard it.

After a fortnight that beautifully celebrated baseball, "one memorable image will be of Venezuela in the sunburst of joy. Another will be that of America alone, the hosts masquerading as toy soldiers, at home and painfully out of place."

Excellent Howard Bryant piece in @us.theguardian.com today:
Other nations danced for joy at the World Baseball Classic. Team USA played toy soldiers
Venezuela played with heart, Italy sipped espresso and the Dominicans showed off their verve at the tournament. America wanted to concentrate on war

So about the WNBA not being able to make money…………
For the first time in league history, the WNBA has hit the revenue sharing marks, according to reports from ESPN.

In other words, the league is making money.

Elana Meyers Taylor.
Wins medals in 4 Olympics (bronze in 2010, silver in 2014/18/22)
In 2020 & 2022, she has kids. Both have special needs. She lives on the road with them, flying around the world for months at a time to compete in bobsled.
And THEN! At 41! She wins her first gold.
American hero.

Robert Duvall made his first movie with Gregory Peck and then lived long enough to make a movie with the basketball player Juancho Hernangómez

11 minutes of screen time and arguably steals the whole 2.5-hour movie
Of all the great scenes in his career, the whole "Charlie Don't Surf" one is the real standout to me. It just spoke to American arrogance and the overall absurdity of war.

RIP Robert Duvall, you were one of the most consistently great actors to have graced the silver screen.

Asking about the stereotypical “Italian” dish that didn’t actually originate in Italy sums up NBC’s Olympics coverage pretty well
“so where should i get me some spaghetti and meatballs from?”

That is a fitting, defining call + highlight of Indiana's epic year, of Fernando Mendoza's iconic Heisman season, of Curt Cignetti's legendary late-career Hall-of-Fame turn.

Literally the most ridiculous discourse I've ever seen and sports media members are making themselves look like such dweebs for publicly flipping out about it.

Would I do it in a presser? No.

Would I maybe sideye it? Probably.

But to run to social media and pearl clutch like this is insanity.
