Got about 15 minutes before Ambien makes the screen groove. If I were going to do a doinky Substack spudcust 1) who should I partner with out of who’s available, saying @scottdochterman.bsky.social isn’t clever. 2) What would it be about? College football, music, movies, “keeping the heart beating.”

Aka “Two future-fired fucks.”

The Lasso finale had me full-on crying like three different times. I think it was exactly what I needed.

Speaking of “Ted Lasso,” holy shit, it’s really doing it for me. It almost makes me miss sportswriting, @johnbohnenkampthe.bsky.social. Almost.

Been a bit of an uptight asshole lately. Apologies.

With eyes on shaking up the CFP, a possible SEC-Big Ten football challenge, MBB in-season classics and reshaping college athletics, conference leadership descends to New Orleans for a second summit. www.nytimes.com/athletic/614...

Big Ten, SEC leaders resume search for compromise with future of CFP, college sports in focus at summit in New Orleans. www.nytimes.com/athletic/614...

Incredibly sad that Chris Farley, Phil Hartman, and Norm Macdonald are dead.

Stopped watching SNL after Norm. Why do they still have it after Norm? Norm tied the room together. I miss Norm.

Laying out the Fran McCaffery decision that is facing AD Beth Goetz. Making a change could be costly, both in finances and on-court performance. The factors in play before Iowa considers moving away from the program's winningest coach for a 2nd time. www.hawkcentral.com/story/sports...

McCaffery still deserves a civil death. Iowa basketball is the shithole. He did the best that he could with this painfully average and nondescript basketball program, which plays in a hole in the ground near the majestic dental lot.

So if Purdue Pete sees his shadow, what again? Six wins for the Boilermakers?

Suck it up, buttercup.
