The man is just built different
Sources: Chiefs had renowned baseball doctors with the Kansas City Royals and Texas Rangers weigh in on Patrick Mahomes’ elbow injury before allowing him to play today in Atlanta.

I had a busy day today and saw no games but wow. Also it’s been slowly building
Expect a BOT meeting at Clemson tomorrow and most likely an announcement between 3-6 PM that Clemson is moving on from Dabo Swinney.
FWIW/IMO, Clemson top boosters have seen enough after that deadful showing at home against Georgia Tech.
Most likely interim staff finishes up so Clemson can get a head stRt in the coaching search.

My parents are caught up in this - after delays their flight from Atl-LAX was canceled. They were supposed to be on a connecting flight to Australia late tonight….so you can guess the fun of getting all that rescheduled
Update: American just cancelled another 416 flights in one hour, much of it at its Dallas and Charlotte hubs. It's now cancelled 41% of today's flights, up from 28% an hour ago. Only JetBlue is worse, at 48%.

No-bid contract. They all get wealthy and we’re stuck paying to clean up their mess.
So let me get this straight. An A.I. startup gave to Sean Duffy’s son in law’s campaign for congress.
Then Sean Duffy and the FAA gave that same company a 12 year, $875M contract for their A.I. air traffic control system.
That same traffic system went live nationwide Nov. 10.
Three days later, the FAA had to ground all flights because the system failed.
Ok. Lock em all up.

So the people who actually work with and know the system think the guy who controls money and decisions about the system is a liar…..:cool cool
I’ve spoken with 60 air traffic controllers tonight about what Sean Duffy said at the White House today. None of them are buying what he said because they said these types of switches that the FAA is doing, they don’t happen during the day, they don’t happen during busy times like a Friday afternoon. They’re doing these midweek, middle of the night when there is no air traffic going on. The controllers were saying, “We don’t buy that this is actually what’s happening, the reason that Sean Duffy is saying this has happened.”

This is a really beautiful rebuke of AI btw. Humans and the human experience will always be superior and will always be needed
Taylor Swift names ‘LUX’ by Rosalía and ‘The Art of Loving’ by Olivia Dean as two of her favorite albums from the past year — when asked about how technology could never replace the creative process of making music:
“If I look back to the past year in music, there are two perfect albums that I love and return to over and over again: Olivia Dean [The Art of Loving] and Rosalía [LUX]. Olivia’s album feels like a warm hug. I listen to it constantly, in almost every situation. Rosalía has created an ambitious, conceptual and expansive album that could have only been born from her own life experience. These two records are amazing because they are human; that is why we as human beings connect to them. It seems to me that when humans create something so extraordinary, that should, in the first place, uplift the rest of us and inspire us, as well as make us feel that we indeed keep winning. We humans keep winning in this fight [against technology].”

Understand something, all of this dates back to DOGE…the desire to cut down workforce to save money in agencies leads directly to attempting to replace humans with AI which cannot be put in charge without oversight of a Waffle House let alone the FAA.
Trump’s administration does not care one bit about the safety of air travel passengers.
Both absolute masterpieces and I just know she was singing along to La Perla 😅
