The #Chargers have been outscored by only 4 points in the first 25 minutes of halves this season. Unfortunately for them, halves are 30 minutes long. They've been outscored by 29 points in the final 5 minutes of halves.

Trying something new with my newsletter this NFL season with a weekly deep dive on end-of-half game management across the league. This week on Clock Watchers: - Brian Flores gets his flowers - The real problem with the Chargers - A QB no one wants to talk about www.dannyoneil.com/p/clock-watc...

Clock Watch: Chargers are cheeks

Vikings and Raiders thriving in end-of-half game management this season as well as a QB no one wants to talk about (for good reason).

I spent the past few years unwinding a very deeply rooted grudge I held against my stepfather. I felt he owed me an apology or at least an explanation over what happened. I wasn't necessarily wrong about that. But he was never going to give me anything approaching honesty.

Jedd Fisch needs someone who understands game management in his ear. If he already has someone doing that, he needs someone new because that dude's leading him astray. www.dannyoneil.com/p/two-losses...

Any #Mariners fans out there interested in testing Playback, which bills itself as a "Twitch for sports." I'm going to experiment with this for Wednesday's matinee vs. Detroit. www.playback.tv/dannyoneil?s...

Imagined the complete and total fit John Clayton would have thrown over today's Twitter outages is enough to bring a smile and the hint of a tear. That man had NO patience for technical difficulties on a day as monumental as the NFL's legal tampering period.

My perspective on Steve Sarkisian changed dramatically not because he quit drinking, but because I did. Back in 2017 when I was still a talk-radio host, we were discussing Sark -- the former UW coach -- who was rebuilding his career after drinking had led USC to fire him three years earlier.

The Seattle #Mariners have made the playoffs five times. Coincidentally, five is also the number of ruptured testicles their players have suffered in the franchise’s 47 years of existence.

I don’t know about you, but I think like the man behind the register.

For the second time in 30 years, there is a top-level NCAA quarterback who shares my name. This time, I can buy a T-shirt with our name on it!

Seeing the toads in charge of Sports Illustrated working to strip mine that great publication is one of the more depressing and dispiriting things I've seen in sports media and that's saying something. dannyoneil.substack.com/p/a-deep-sig...

For years I heard tech people scoff at how badly media businesses had mismanaged the transition to a digital future. If nothing else, Elon Musk has shown that tech folks might be even worse at it.

The only problem I have talking about my mental is finding the right verb. Saying, "I have depression" or "I am depressed" fails to capture the reality of what is more like a tendency that I must be aware of.
