Bluebeard My ninth Vonnegut! Beautiful and funny and sad in all the ways you can expect from KV, with a lot of really good stuff to say about art and artists, sacrifice (or commitment?) and meaning. “Thank you, Meat.”

White helmets finally make their season debut atop WGW, and for the 5th homecoming in a row we’ll have a throwback decal—but neither this retro Bobcat nor any other “cat” logo (besides the Paw) have ever appeared on a helmet until now! 😼 The classic WGW combo went 2-0 in 2025.

A former Bobcat of any position hasn’t attempted a pass since 2002 (P Dave Zastudil) or completed a pass since 1978 (P Dave Green, who also completed in 74/77 & attempted in 75). One other non-QB made a completion in 42 (FB Len Janiak), but Bob Snyder (1937-41, 43) is the only true Ohio QB to do so.

This is why I was so desperate for Nathan and now Kurtis Rourke to get a real NFL shot—a former Ohio QB hasn’t thrown an NFL pass since 1943 🫩

Edge of the Abyss Lived fully up to the hype I had based on how much I loved the first book in this Reign of the Empire series. A perfect complement and run-up to the Andor show. If the release timeline so far holds, hopefully it’s only another year and a half til the third and final one 🤞

Deadeye Dick My eighth Vonnegut, which I rank at or near the top among my favorites so far (and not just because a real-life Ohio University art professor plays a part). It’s very sad, very funny, and I flew right through it.

I wish I knew this when I lived there, but I found out earlier this month that this spot is also apparently a place for Bobcats. I know exactly where I’ll be spending more time when I make my eventual glorious return to the greatest city in the world

Crazy game in Columbus tonight - drama and real bad blood between the teams. Via @bensteiner00.bsky.social, Crew coach Laurent Courtois was sharply critical of Miami gamesmanship postgame: "I would be red carded after five minutes against those guys. What they do is bad for the game, and it's sad."

The name is incredibly disappointing, but when you’re entering the league at the same time as the eventual Columbus Hellbenders, you’re doomed to fail either way (The logo is fun, though it would be much better if it ditched the roundel)

I don’t really have much emotion either way because of this very important factor right here. I’m sure there’s plenty of projects in development - that might not end up greenlit or made, or which eventually evolve into something else. But what happens is that people just read headlines and…

Sources say the project is still in development.

One of my favorite trips when I was in the band! I’m especially proud of the dance chart; I was part of the trio that put those together that season. Their fans were excellent to us (though I love this picture lol) and it was cool to be there for their band’s Pat Summitt tribute show

10 years (and nine days, sorry, I’m a little late) ago the Ohio University Marching 110 entered Neyland Stadium and made Tennessee fans feel something

A Tennessee fan in a BEAT BAMA hat, visible only by his hat and extended arm, aims a middle finger towards the field where the 110 was in the middle of its halftime show dance chart. I’m the fourth one in from the left in the front row, just off the 35-yard line!

GBB returns for the fifth year in a row (3-0 in 2025, 8-2 all time), but the bigger story is the new black jersey! It’s the sixth black jersey in team history (first with the Paw) and the first time the Paw has appeared on any jersey (not counting anniversary patches) since 1989.
