This is the most wonderful thing I've heard in awhile.

Apropos of nothing, that sponsor-less shirt is gorgeous. Props to National League South side Maidstone United with the shock of the FA Cup, knocking off League One Stevenage Town 1-0.

I like to think a full-strength FSU squad with 80 chips on 80 shoulders would've gone in pissed off and looking to make a point to everyone. They still probably would've lost but they'd have bloodied Georgia's noses in the process and gone out on their collective shields. This feels like the end of the road for Norvell. He had a month to motivate his kids into a better place, keep the band together and show the CFP how wrong they were for the snub. Instead you got a cavalcade of aight-imma-head-outs and an island of remaining misfits who played like they'd rather be in Gaza. Or possibly Chyna. Either way, he/they got exposed to a biblical degree and I can't see why any top recruit would commit to a program that shit the bed as badly as they did under pressure.

The football equivalent of Thurman Munson not even bothering with signals and just motioning for Goose Gossage to send the heat while the batter just stares at him.

Me checking the score just now:

And then there's this. If only they got some Mizzou footage.

That has to be intentional, no?

Bing AI is the bee's knees.

Just over a year after this promo, one of these gentlemen is arguably the biggest face in the company while the other one is a midcard heel after losing his steam.

This kid just won Signing Day. I'm guessing Western Carolina puts him at OL and uses the mullet as a wide-out.

Now now. Everyone told us we couldn't buy success. In other news, sixth-tier French club US Revel's collective reaction to drawing PSG in the Coupe is worthwhile.

The audacity of the 5-8 Jets doing this. I like it.

Welp.

NY6 games: Liberty "wins" the lottery and the right to get shellacked by Oregon.

Not sure what's greater: the celebration itself, or the idea that they did it against the original Fun Bunch.

North Alabama moved up to FBS?

FA Cup third round draw:

!

Thoughtful discussion to the left, "thanks I hate its" to the right.

Fresh off winning the SoCal Challenge last night, Bradley gets Vermont on Saturday. Amusingly, the Catamounts beat Cindy's college (Plattsburgh State) a few weeks ago so this may be the first and only time both our alma maters play the same school in a given season.

Idaho is absolutely seal-clubbing Idaho State. It's already 56-0, not even halftime.

Honestly, they should've led with that. Sometimes going for the finisher early pays off.
