And with Boise State playing a big game on Saturday.

Boots on the ground for the first UTRGV football game ... ever What I learned from a 66-0 beatdown was about more than just football

NEW EXTRA POINTS:

I went to the Rio Grande Valley to go to the very first UTRGV football game.

Here's what I learned about football in Texas, what makes the RGV a unique place, and building something for the community on their terms....not a school's.

Take this thing down to -

3 auto bids for each of the 4 power conferences

Auto bid for each G6 champ

6 at large bids (which will almost all go to the Big Ten/SEC/ND anyway)

For years I’ve said the Japanese are going to eventually run some kind of formation or play that will change the game forever and wreck the psyche of generations of American football coaches.

The WNBA should not approve this sale. He just wants an off-season tenant for the United Center. This will not level up the Sky with the rest of the league.

Jason Benetti with an incredible summary.

Who regresses the most this year - Goff without Ben Johnson, Jayden Daniels bc of unrealistic expectations, or Bo Nix bc he’s central casting for 80’s movie HS QB?

To be fair, the team is opening a new practice facility next season, although I’m pretty sure the league mandated that they build one.

Also, it’s 7/3. A fitting day for this graphic.

I can get behind retractable roof stadiums, since most of our winters will soon be much more polar vortexy, but I hate the idea of playing in a bunch of monolithic, taxpayer supported boondoggles.

South Oak Parkers definitely like to make sure you know they’re from South Oak Park.

But can the kitchen staff sing Rocky Top en francais?

This is Jumbo. She just got her very first bath. Doggy paddle officially activated. 12/10

I get "freedom = cars" in so many places but to me, a New Yorker, having a car seems so stifling. You have to figure out where to park, how to get gas, how to get home if you have 3 beers. What's actually freeing is being able to walk places and having trains that run wherever I want to go

This is Mazi. She brought one toy to bed for herself and one for each of her parents. This way, they all have a buddy to help them sleep safe and sound. 13/10

SOMEBODY HUG THIS GOOD BOY NOW

I feel like schools like Cal, Stanford, and several others who probably aren’t willing to play the long game on NIL will eventually drop down to an FCS caliber level of football. Which is totally fine.

two photos side by side. in the left photo, a dog is leaning out the driver window of a red vehicle toward a drive-thru window. in the right photo the dog has entered the establishment through the window, only his hind end sticking out.

This dog got a little impatient waiting for his pup cup. Decided to make sure everything was going alright in there. 14/10

I am a 41 year old man who cannot stop singing Gracie Abrams songs at work today.

And now for something completely different..

Elsa Backlund Celsing

She’s not wrong. All doggies are 99% wolf.

I mean, at some point MLB has to intervene and force JR out, right?

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness….”

Really going to crush those last 4 games now.

This is Tenney. She has a case of the zoomies. And also the agility of a running back. 13/10

I was specifically reprimanded once at an old job for appearing to be too unfriendly for not saying hello to everyone in the building. I just don’t want to bother people. That said, I try to say hello to people in the hallways and so on now.

#Iceberg #Alley! The icebergs are on their yearly move, this time of year. #Ray #Mackey is a #photographer from #Newfoundland and #Labrador who takes fantastic #pictures of this #Eastern location in #Atlantic #Canada. We hope to travel that way this summer and will compliment him on his 🤩 #photos.

This is high art

The Giant therapy rabbit is back at Oracle Park.

"Whoever discovered the beauty of the therapy animal is -- a special place in Heaven for. It is remarkable what animals can do to relieve anxiety and depression."
