If we want to talk about the biggest disappointments in college football this season, move Lane Kiffin to that table. Year one at LSU has been a failure. With today’s loss, Kiffin moves to 13-27 against top 10 opponents.

this might have triggered my first ever certified old man sports take. this is an out. i don't care what the 4k 240 fps slomo shot says. the ump called it an out, the players celebrated the game being over. this is an out
Was Cooper Pratt's foot off the bag on this potential game-ending double play?

The NFL and the Philadelphia Eagles almost killed Jalen Hurts for a Week 5 international showcase. ​The full details of what happened behind closed doors in London just surfaced, and the negligence is staggering. ​Before kickoff in London, Hurts was in a hospital bed until 4:00 AM undergoing emergency vascular testing. Medical staff instructed him not to sleep because sleep was considered an active health risk. ​Instead of shutting down their $255 million franchise quarterback, the team cleared him to play 60 minutes of brutal, high-impact collision football on zero sleep. ​Then, they loaded him onto a pressurized, 8-hour transatlantic flight back to Philadelphia. ​Every doctor on the planet knows that long-haul flights and cabin pressure are the exact triggers that cause lower-extremity blood clots to break free. The Eagles spent days assuring the public it was just a "minor, superficial calf clot". ​Now the truth comes out: the clot dislodged, shot through his bloodstream, and caused multiple pulmonary emboli in his lungs. ​Hurts is officially out for the season, placed on blood thinners where taking a single routine tackle could cause a fatal internal hemorrhage. ​He isn't just lucky to play football again, he is lucky to be alive. ​When the NFL preaches "player safety," remember this moment. They ran a human being into the ground for television ratings in the UK, almost lost him to a preventable medical catastrophe, and cratered their entire season in the process. ​Who inside that building signed off on letting him play and board that flight?

Mike Ditka was the best. Watch Will Ferrell talk about him popping his hip back in during the filming of 'Kicking & Screaming' then going right back to acting. We lost a legend today.

Check this out: Mike Ditka in a game against the Steelers in 1963. This is honestly one of the best plays by a tight end in NFL history that very few people have ever seen. RIP Iron Mike.

Victor Wembanyama was asked if he would ever sign a deal with a sports betting company: “Absolutely not. Honestly, I think it’s very sad to see some players promote it.”

New reports reveal Meta has been classifying gigantic data centers as "pilot models" in order to secure a tax credit from the 1980s. The loophole has allowed Meta to avoid paying nearly $4,000,000,000 in taxes last year alone.

Arizona Sheriff who ended the Flock camera contract in his county: If we rely on private camera networks to continuously log the habits of innocent Americans without a warrant, we are paving the way to an AI-driven surveillance state. We must establish clear boundaries for automatic license plate readers. We cannot wait for a future Supreme Court ruling to correct AI overreach. We must protect the Fourth Amendment today.

Barack Obama at his last press briefing with reporters, 2017: "I have enjoyed working with all of you. That does not, of course, mean that I've enjoyed every story that you have filed, but that's the point of this relationship. You're not supposed to be sycophants. You're supposed to be skeptics. You're supposed to ask me tough questions. You're not supposed to be complimentary, but you're supposed to cast a critical eye on folks who hold enormous power."

The chlorine causes the fish to suffocate while also burning them alive. Most are dead within 15 minutes. But hey, the MAGA kids got to play.
At Trump’s Virginia golf club, small fish were dumped into the swimming pool so kids could try to catch them.

Obama: “Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the WH press corps. You’re laughing but this is what’s happening. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent right now would have tolerated a behavior like that from me.”

The White House media ban reminds me of the Teddy Roosevelt quote: “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
