He was phenomenal at practices... until they added defenders to drills.
Yeah that's what rookie QBs do

It was his 4th year.

When I'm driving with my daughter, she picks the music. When she's driving, she picks the music. Because there's no way in hell I'm going to argue with her (and also I'm just happy to have the time in the car with her - that works so much better than trying to "hang out" together). Luckil...

Darnold was also like 17 years old when they drafted him. I've decided I'm convinced a team can't be wrong that many times in the top rounds of the draft with different FOs each time, the org just ruins them. Except Wilson. When he was all uncomfortable in that video at the draft with the other top...

Given that a majority of people (presumably?) don't really follow politics and that Republicans wouldn't put Britt in that position if they didn't have some sort of plan for her, SNL introducing her to a group of people as a joke right from the jump can't hurt. I doubt that's the show's intent, but...

Beyonce's new country song is pretty good. No cap. Counterpoint: I hate it (woo) and it’s a gateway drug for middle schoolers in my area to listen to non-Dolly Parton country music. Whatever part of me that acknowledges it’s pretty cool Beyoncé can pull this off is strongly outweighed by the part o...

Is this the space to talk about how badly Chelsea used Pulisic? Because he's doing GREAT with AC Milan. He was great at Chelsea for a brief spell. Arguably the best player in the EPL coming out of COVID. Aye. And still. Mothballed. Anyway, happy for him that he's having the season he is. It's been ...

OK it took me a second to get what Favreau was saying here. He needed to edit his tweet to say, “…needs to feel feared, not humiliated.” Cuz it sorta sounds like the lesson here is on us to respect him rather than to mock him.

I had to read that a second time, too.

I think it's pretty safe if the company is that big internationally. The US is falling apart, start learning Mandarin and accept your new Chinese warlords! I'm not (consciously) worried they have any evil intent in the US, but I am afraid of Congress banning them from working in the US. When it fir...

Same thought. Are they falling apart? What's wrong with old books?

Holy fucking shit. That's reprehensible. Quick math dictates that when you say "woman" and "since she was 12" something was off. But my God that's clearly something else. Edit: Why doesn't the official White House feed reach out to that guy and ask to repost his info? If I'm pre...

Anyone ever just have the gas line company come out and perform maintenance on your house?

Apparently it'll be for every house eventually and it seems mine ...

Heh, I’ve recently clicked on some Reelz, and man does this algorithm have me nailed. 70% videos of babies and kids with large breed dogs (mostly German Shepherds, but also Jax the Rottweiler, and various bully breeds) 30% soccer videos (highlights, training drills, and trick shot contests).

Probably even shorter. And my wife is barely 5’2!!!
Under 5.

I know she is short, but really? Under 5 foot?

1. Happy birthday
2. Your family Facebook posts make me really excited for when both kids are taller than my wife.

Yours,

My daughter keeps trying to claim that day. She’s a fraction of an inch shorter, and I don’t think it’s going to happen until my wife starts shrinking.

Congrats! Must be nice to have the decision done and finalized.

Ivan DeJesus. Just seeing that name, this image popped into my head. Why the fuck do I have such a clear memory of his 1984 baseball card, and I can't remember shit my kids tell me 15 minutes later?

I don’t get how this age gap works but I’m intrigued. He was in the freshman world history class I had my second year of teaching back in 2000. I’m 47 and he’s 38.
