As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.

There are other people in the world: defector.com/there-are-ot...

I think about this headline all of the time.

Luka is all of us who have ever been undervalued or underappreciated by an employer. Hope he drops 60 tonight.

You can’t store soup in a square tupperware container, it has to be a round one. Soup is round

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

Over the weekend, I took my wife and kids to a women's lax game...a sport I knew absolutely nothing about. It ruled. I think you'd all have fun if you picked a sport you don't follow this weekend and went to a game. ESPECIALLY if you work in or around sports: www.extrapointsmb.com/p/this-weeke...

Cannot endorse the main point here enough. Go to sporting events. Big ones, small ones, games for teams you care about, games for teams you know nothing about. Go with friends, go with family, go alone. I almost always see something or feel something which sticks with me long after I leave

Pretty sure this #WCBB season is already the best one yet. A very exciting seven weeks coming up.

Mac McClung has the coolest job in the world. Nobody ever yells at him about whether his team loses, and then one night per year, he just has to do one or two cool things. The Santa Claus of dunking

If Mac McClung wins a third straight dunk contest somebody has to give him an NBA contract. He’s won G-League MVP. He’s won a G-League championship. Will somebody please release him from dunking purgatory

the mouse trap dunk

10yrs old: a slam dunk is the coolest thing i’ve ever seen 15yrs old: these slow, emotional songs just “get” me 25yrs old: literature explores the human condition, but the visual storytelling in film reaches a much broader audience 35yrs old: a slam dunk is the coolest thing i’ve ever seen

Macdiculous. What a gift to be alive in the same era as the greatest dunker of all time

This Lonely Island medley might be my new second-favorite SNL thing. Behind this, #1 always and forever

One very important lesson lawyers tell you is that anyone can write anything in a contract

"I'm here because I'v won. I've won everywhere." Rice football wanted a head coach with a unique offense and experience winning at high academic institutions. @Scott_AbellFB checked all of those boxes while Rice checked all of his. www.texasfootball.com/article/2025...

Watching a film

I enjoyed that last two point conversion very much

Love to see Cramblin-Duvet advertising producing an ad for the Big Game

Still enjoying every second of this

I'm enjoying every second of this

Made Philly Cheesesteak soup, Go Birds

59 years ago today, mild-mannered jim bowl was bitten by a radioactive spider

It's very delicious

Not just WOULD....WILL

I think the important distinction is that it is Skyline spice. Does a pumpkin spice latte taste like pumpkin? No, it tastes like the spices in pumpkin pie. Same here. Cinnamon, nutmeg. I could honestly even see a Skyline spice latte. I’m here for it

They actually congratulated and attaboyed each other after the play for balling out, it was so wholesome

Cheers in absentia, @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social

@georgiaisaverb.bsky.social let's get you a retroactive NIL deal

These bigots say they’re all about “protecting women’s sports” but zero percent of them have opinions about Leonie Fiebich’s performance in the WNBA postseason, get your weak trash out of here

Been training my whole life for this moment

I grew up on Mister Rogers and Sesame Street and will never understand how so many in my generation--especially men--strayed so far from empathy, kindness, respect, and accountability. Those should be driving forces in all we do.

Ryan Day's season outlasts Harbaugh's

CAPTAIN JACK SCOOP AND SCORE ON 4TH DOWN 🗡️

i allow myself one piece of college athlete psychoanalysis per year, and it is clear that sawyer was viscerally disturbed (like he'll never be normal because of it) by never beating michigan and it has become the problem of tennessee, oregon, and now texas

The boy said OSU should run The Sam Hubbard Play. So, they did.

Ridiculously soft unsportsmanlike penalties in the Stagg Bowl tonight #d3fb Congrats to NCC, who deserves to celebrate those big plays
