It's like it unlocks a new level of pride you didn't know was possible.

(it's Monday here and it's a holiday, but I still agree)

Taught my daughter to ride a bike today and hooooo boy there's nothing like being in the moment of what you know will be a core memory that neither of you will ever forget.

I could fight a bear right now.

HOLY SHIT LFGGG

Australia/Japan is 0-0 after 5!

No matter what happens from here, what a bloody incredible game from our bullpen.

I love the WBC!

Wait I take it back we loaded the bases for Ohtani.

The WBC is bloody awesome.

Seriously, what a great concept that is fantastically executed by all involved.

Wizards are better at tanking than the Jazz.

Gday mate.

Anytime an Australian athlete is representing Australia in international competition, we rise 7 levels.

See: Patty Mills in FIBA becomes equivalent to prime MJ.

I can't explain why. It just happens.

When the Titans released Lloyd Cushenberry I thought "he'd be a good fit in Washington, but we already have Biadasz".

Welp... now I'm wondering if we're pursuing him.

28 years old. Struggled in the Tennessee system, but I still think there's big upside.

Just a thought.

For my American mates; I very much enjoyed this 60 min stand-up set by @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social where he basically spends the entire set comparing the US to Australia.

Good shit.

BlueSky's first #ItsOn?

That's maybe the worst onside kick I've ever seen.

Give Myers the MVP.

Kickers are people too.

What an absolutely terrible decision to throw that ball.

Tirico keeps talking up the Seahawks defense as "dominant".

They've been good.

But the Patriots offense (especially Drake Maye) have been a w f u l. That's the real story.

Maye implosion.

This is the kind of shit-the-bed performance that can legitimately derail a young QBs career.

Verizon spent approximately $12 on their de-aging of the Jurassic Park stars.

That was awful VFX.

Okay that prostate cancer ad was very good, and very informative.

Noon monday!

Between the teams, the game itself, the commercials, the overall vibe... enshittification has hit the Super Bowl.

This doesn't "feel" like the Super Bowl.

I can't put it into words.

Does anyone else feel the same?

All we had to trade them was Rob Schneider, Nicki Minaj, and Ice Hockey.

Deal of the century.

Ron Harper Jr!

Who knew?!

To all my friends and acquaintances from WaPo, past and present;

This sucks.
I'm sorry.

Literally 100% of the people I've met from WaPo over the years did incredible work. That is so rare.

What a stupid decision by corporate idiots.

Correct.

The WaPo sports desk was literally the epitome of sports journalism, and represented the highest possible levels of integrity and professionalism.

Bezos is an abject fool if he doesn't understand the enormous intangible value that it brought to the organization.

Some stats on the Vikings defense in 2025;

- 1st in NFL for blitz %
- 7th best for points allowed
- 3rd best for yards allowed
- 3rd best for yards-per-play
- 10th for turnovers
- 9th for 1st downs allowed
- 5th in total sacks

A fascinating hire. Huge upside.

Sometimes I don't think Americans understand just how bad things have gotten in America.

I'm an Aussie who has spent a LOT of time in the US. I've worked in the US. I've travelled. I got married in the US.

Right now I wouldn't be allowed into America because I've made critical social media posts.

I think Al Harris could very easily end up getting the gig.

Dan Quinn has huge wraps on him. There's an existing familiarity. Also worked under Andy Reid in KC.
