Is this what happened to everyone in that White House photo from last night.

11 am in College Station is 9am in Eugene. So that spot is out for the Ducks. Suprised they're not at 2:30 and Ole Miss is in the prime time game.

Hard to play Oregon at noon. That's 9am in Eugene.

That should mean they're fucked. But...

You lost to UConn seems a solid burn to me.

Harrison Ford's record in Washington is quite impressive.

I'm cementing my reputation as the internet biggest Jeff Calhoun fan.

Next steo: profit.

He's a rich guy who comes across as a rich guy who's only saying this stuff because he wants to be elected.

He's been dealt a bad hand on authenticity, but he does not play it well.

Well down my list for 2028.

Predictable since Lane brought his GM from Oxford. I hope this is the right choice

Lane lost a morality contest to Al Davis. I would say there's no coming back from that, but [waves hands around]

You can't say Lane hasn't earned it.

Lane's so annoying he's going to force me to like Mulkey.

The G.O.P. Continues to Slip

I like the framing in this Nate Vohn article, who puts the GOP political decline this year in the 20 year trend of big snapbacks against the President's party.

Made the right choice.

Did not expect that she is going to have a failed tenure as USC head coach, but I guess so.

And salute to the other Paul Hackett, special election hopeful.

Aaron Weiss fits Houston thanks to a flat-VAA fastball, a tight gyro slider, and low release variance that create strong tunnels. The #Astros can likely add IVB, sharpen late slider break, and reshape his third pitch into a cutter for a more optimized profile.

Chandler has the contract details. Unsurprisingly, a cheap deal. Another project for the pitching lab.

And plenty of money still available to sign a free agent.

CBS News.

Hard to know much from the Astros standpoint. Also depends on what they paid him.

They could do worse. And probably will.

Yeah, that's my lean today.

In an ideal world, they get to play both.
