Targeting is used to make the game safer. That call punished a play that wasn’t remotely more dangerous than a football tackle. Putting your helmet on the ball happens 50 times a game and not once have I seen it been called a targeting.

Florida State has three drives extended by phantom penalties. Noles played better, Bama played poorly, refs helped decide it. No denying it.

Year 14 of covering high school football for me is almost underway. I’m back on JefCoEd TV this season starting with a big 6A battle between No. 2 Clay-Chalkville and Hueytown.

It’s raining now but pregame is scheduled for 6:40 with kickoff at 7.

James Dobson: a quintessential example of how sadism cloaks itself in religion to openly rationalize and perpetrate pain, suffering, and death.

The unmarked car facing the wrong direction in the turn lane nearly drove into the crowd, revving their engine within 50 feet of the crowd. The officer with what appears to be a beanbag gun pumped the shotgun as soon as he got out of the car, anticipating to use violence.

β€œYes, the President is named in the DOJ’s Epstein files. But it is entirely innocuous, which is why we shut down an entire chamber of Congress for six weeks rather than let you see them.”

What a moment for Bonansea. Maybe one of the most underrated careers in Europe and she gets a goal in a massive match like that. Well deserved and an incredible finish.

What the United States government is letting Israel do to Gazans is monstrous. A grave crime against humanity. Shame on everyone who is enabling this.

These people are Nazis. I know that's well-understood by many people at this point, but not enough. They are Nazis and we need to keep saying it.

right now bombing Iran is incredibly unpopular. i suspect the admin is betting this will inspire retaliatory terrorist attacks against Americans that will help to manufacture consent for further escalations.
