lol

Brandel on Bryson today on "Live From":
"It's almost like he went from chasing Scottie Scheffler and Rory Mollroy to chasing Grant Horvat. It's like he wants to outdo every YouTuber in the game of golf instead of outplay everybody in the game of golf."

I guess Europe called bullshit on Musk’s verification system and it worked

Update on X's blue checkmark
Following the European Commission's Decision of
5 December 2025, we must explain the meaning of our blue checkmark and verification policies:
Premium accounts featuring the blue checkmark are not verified under identity or authenticity criteria (accounts verified based on an ID are labelled as "ID verified").
As you know, on 1 April 2023 we began winding down Twitter's legacy verification program:
Previously, to receive the blue checkmark, accounts had to be authentic, active, and deemed notable by Twitter staff (for more information on the legacy policy, please click here).
Now, following the changes implemented to democratize the platform, the blue checkmark has a different meaning and identifies accounts that have an active subscription to X Premium/X Premium+ (including services such as reply prioritization) and are complete, active, secure and non-deceptive, regardless of perceived notability.

Justin Herbert is going to cook whether you like it or not

How will Herbert fit into the McDaniel system, which, like almost every modern offense, is a take on the Shanahan system? In 2025 Herbert ranked second among 34 qualifying QBs in accuracy on crossing and post patterns, routes that figure prominently into McDaniel's scheme. Herbert was 17 percent over his expected completion rate on those throws.
It's noteworthy that those throws were first-read attempts at a fairly low 58 percent clip, meaning these plays were not necessarily designed for Herbert to get it to the pass catchers running crossers and posts. He made the call on his own as a secondary or tertiary option and it worked out quite well, as Herbert's 10.7 adjusted yards per attempt on those attempts ranked 11th among 34 quarterbacks.

I like a lot of early Muse - I think The Resistance captures the political feel of the post-2008 economic collapse - but some of their recent stuff is just awful. This one is … not good.

I’ve wondered if Giants QB Jaxson Dart would be more careful with his head and brain in 2026. I think I have my answer.

Platner’s working class cosplay was all for nothing. Wasted time and energy. badfaithtimes.com/a-working-cl...

Platner's working class cosplay was based on the loose idea of a working class white fella as seen in the mind of a liberal-leaning
podcaster or a quant-brained campaign strategist who makes $800,000 a year.
Platner's whole shtick tailed spectacularly.
All the effort Platner and his handlers put into presenting him as a member of the state's working class was wasted energy, per recent NYT polling data: 93 percent of voters who backed Platner said they were doing so based on "where he stands on the issues." Four percent said they would support Platner based on "who he is as a person."

Scottie Scheffler is going to miss the cut at the Scottish Open, which means his "golf means absolutely nothing to me" shtick is about to reach levels we've never even imagined.
