Appreciate my Lebanese roommate in college for introducing me to the sarcastic “habibi” decades ago.

They not only do it more, they celebrate like they just forced a punt when when it’s 4th-and-inches and the offense is clearly going to go for it.

It’s one thing to mix up your Portlands, but this dope, who presumably works in media, either didn’t know or didn’t remember that call signs for stations east of the Mississippi all start with “W” while the ones west of the river all start with “K.”

I mean if you think about it, it’s actually Biden’s fault that federal judges trust Trump’s DOJ as much as they do.

Chris Nowak @chrisnowak.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
This is completely unfair to federal judges who understandably give Trump’s DOJ deference because of economic uncertainty.

The one-two punch of this stuff and SCOTUS has destroyed the concept of the rule of law in a way I’m not sure we can come back from.

The Lions offense making the Cardinals choose between focusing on LaPorta or Williams and throwing to whomever the defense doesn’t pick. Seems good!

A coverage sack! Not gonna turn the season around, but any sign of defensive competency is welcome at this point.

I like Jameson Williams. He seems fun.

Goff just missed that one. Teslaa was wide open.

It’s funny how the law gives federal officials a vast amount of grace and leeway, and these dipshit fascists just chuck it all overboard. It’s sad how that still doesn’t seem to make any practical difference.

Some enterprising team should sign that young man to a long-term contract.

Turns out that Sam LaPorta is good, you guys.

Chris Nowak @chrisnowak.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Sam LaPorta with a tough catch in traffic on 4th down is… Not alarming! It’s really good. Also Goff looked like he found his third option there.

Three drives producing zero points, two sacks and a fumble (recovered) for the Lions offense is alarming.

Jared Goff eating two sacks because of pressure up the middle on two drives is alarming.

The Lions giving up a long TD drive to AZ to start the game is alarming.

The Lions offense starting the game with a three-and-out against Arizona is alarming.

Look, just move him back for one game. See what happens.

There’s a case to be made to be made that things have been off with the entire franchise ever since they moved the trumpet guy from right before the game to right after Olly. Is LAFC experiencing the Curse of the Trumpet Guy?

Your whole “Everyone is dumb but me” bit only works when you’re in your area of expertise, like military history, strategy etc. The minute you swing your leg sover those guardrails, you come off as a midwit blowhard.

“If you interpret Trump’s words differently than I do, then you’re as brain-poisoned as the people that support roving, anonymous, state-sponsored death squads. I’m Tom Nichols, and I’m an intelligent person who knows who to draw fine distinctions.”

Professional Dem strategists, three months ago: “Mike Rogers is a formidable opponent! Slotkin barely beat him! We need to be careful and choose the safe option!” Mike Rogers, tonight, “You’re Hamas and your mom is Al Qaeda. Hamas, Hamas, Muslim Brotherhood. YOUR MOM IS AL QAEDA! Also, Islam.”

I’m looking for a more benign explanation than “Judge was swayed by a glitchy, saccharine AI video.” I’d rather believe he just took a bribe, or is sleeping with the vicitm’s sister. Both of those would be better scenarios.

I know we’re all (rightly) focused on the shortcomings in the defensive backfield, but what the hell has happened to the LBs this season? Their dropoff has to be a scheme issue, right? (Please say yes.)

Oh man, I can’t BELIEVE that dastardly Dylan Larkin is forcing Simon Edvinsson to seek a trade away from the Detroit Red Wings, whose former GM never did anything wrong ever and whose current nepo-baby owner definitely knows what he’s doing. When will Larkin’s reign of terror end?!

Look, I’m used to people taking potshots at LA. But what the hell did San Diego do to get on his radar? SD is like 1/3 hippies, 1/3 Republican, 1/3 military and they’re out here catching strays from President Alzheimer’s.

I’m surprised a right wing podcaster hasn’t yet made the case that Dennis Hasbert did nothing wrong and that he was simply a man before his time who tried to protect the integrity of youth sports through the rigorous inspection of children’s genitals.

Also, I know Goff isn’t the most mobile guy in the world, but every time he has had to take a single step out of the pocket in this game he seems to kinda forget how to throw a football or what right arms are even supposed to do.

I’ve been watching the Lions for a very, very long time which means I have learned, by necessity, to never get too high or too low. But man… I do not know how anyone is supposed to fix this Lions defensive backfield. There are exactly zero starting-caliber players. Zero.

I could be remembering incorrectly, but didn’t Brad once think of himself as a guy who had an eye for DBs? Like, didn’t he used to frequently say that about himself?

Through four possessions, the Panthers have had touchdown drives of: 72 yards, 75 yards, and 76 yards. Kelvin Sheppard is probablycoaching for his job for the rest of this game.

You should maybe check in with your libertarian friends who warned you about the dangers of unchecked government power because 90% of them now support armed, anonymous, state sponsored death squads.

Yeah, we’re not talking about a disagreement over what the top marginal tax rate should be. I have neither the ability nor the inclination to find common ground with someone who doesn’t believe that everyone is born with certain inalienable rights.
