If anyone is friends with any Georgian air traffic controllers, buy them a nice bottle of wine. As guardians of pretty much the only narrow gap still available between Europe and Asia that avoids both Iran, the Gulf, Ukraine and Russia, they are under some substantial pressure.
Imagine Alabama's QB goes down and the Tide bring in a former D2 QB who is working as a PA for the ESPN broadcast and that's basically what happened to Hendrick Motorsports today
playing the role of Sisyphus, Quinshon Judkins (or whichever running back is healthy)
How'd they do in dvoa? I wonder how much playing Texans x2, broncos, and Seahawks would affect pressures expected...

Lord of the Flies reference killed me, fantastic

Fascinating chart with one outlier: Warren Buffett.
At the low end, giving 0.06% of one's wealth is equivalent to:
Net worth -> Lifetime Giving
50K->$30
100K->$60
500K->$300
$1M->$600
Most folks give far more by % in a *single year*.

"isaac paredes homers to left field" is redundant

Of the various skiing events, downhill skiing is the fastest and most violent. The downhill is one of two events where the governing body of skiing has recently mandated that the skiers wear tiny little airbags in their chests. It’s a sport where they have a helicopter on standby for medical emergencies. It’s a sport where, every once in a while, someone good enough to compete or win at the Olympics or World Championships dies in training or competition. (Not often … but not never.) Vonn’s career injury list is 20 years long and doesn’t fit in a single iPhone screenshot. She was one of two skiers airlifted off the course Sunday; Andorran skier Cande Moreno also had a horrible crash and ended up as a footnote in the stories about Vonn. The eventual winner of the race, Breezy Johnson, tore her ACL in a 2022 crash on this same course in Cortina D’Ampezzo and missed the 2022 Olympics. The eventual bronze medalist, Italian Sofia Goggia, has an “injuries” section of her Wikipedia page, including a fractured fibula at Cortina in 2022; she won silver at the 2018 Olympics after a partial ACL tear. Somebody made together a supercut of crashes and injuries on the Cortina course in last year’s World Cup downhill; it is eight minutes long.
wrote a little bit about Lindsey Vonn and the brutal nature of downhill skiing, a sport where basically every athlete has suffered multiple catastrophic injuries and keeps coming back, chasing something the rest of us can't possibly understand

MARIST'S LEAD CONTINUES TO GROW
Is that a fixable thing in-game or is that something he'll need to rep in the off-season to fix?
😬🤕
I, for one, absolutely love the Greatest Standard Deviation of Pitch Velocity Era of baseball.
with Mike LaFleur entering the ranks of NFL head coaches and the return of McCarthy, the league has survived the loss of McDaniel and Tomlin to maintain its status quo of 4 Head Coaches Named Mike for the seventh consecutive season
Holy moly this chart: Cumulative US measles cases
Certain schools should have specific plays they're required to run a given number of times per game. Wisconsin with power, UF with four verts out of shotgun fun-n-gun, FSU with bump-n-run coverage, etc. I'm sure you can think of a better list than I can.
when the Jets drafted Sam Darnold his OC/QB coach was Jeremy Bates who has not been hired to any job in football since. then they fired the coaching staff and hired Adam Gase who also has not been hired to any job in football since. no i'm not mad about it
Aonishiki, the 21yo who fled the war in Ukraine 3yrs ago, continues his meteoric rise by winning the January tournament in a day 15 playoff (only necessary if a tie at top of standings); his 2nd-straight yusho on his quest to be the first European-born yokozuna.
I'd even accept "I didn't like recruiting, just provide me with dudes to coach up"
BREAKING: Immigration officers are asserting sweeping power to enter homes without a judge’s warrant, a memo obtained by AP says.
well i guess we can finally settle the Tua-Herbert debate once and for all
We got an Indiana national championship before GTA 6
From 2020 through 2023 -- four seasons -- Indiana won 15 games total.
Indiana won 16 games this year.
A complicated legacy:
Carson Back lost just six games in his college career.
In four of them, the final offensive play was a Beck INT with a chance to win the game.
Fantastic answer.
disappointing doink from the upright at the national championship game tbh. no reverberation at all. if you're going to host the national championship game you've gotta take upright acoustics more seriously
Jarrett Stidham right now
