The road to fascism is paved with collaborators, cowards, cheerleaders, and appeasers—people who believe they can ride along but end up as the pavement itself. Don’t be the road.

The Republicans’ governance policies are such miserable failures, their midterm pitch to voters boils down to fear mongering about “trans for all”, communism, and Trump going to prison if Democrats win.

Hey, guys. I’m beginning to wonder if the FIFA Peace Prize might have been a made-up award created solely to flatter Donald Trump. I realize this is a fairly serious allegation against an institution with FIFA’s long record of unimpeachable integrity.

Biden: The MAGA wing, well gosh, listen, they’re, it’s, a bit of a flirt with fascism, no kidding around Media: Democratic rhetoric invites political violence Trump: The nuclear flames that burn every mongrel soul in San Diego will be a cleansing fire. Media: Trump makes his case in Nebraska

The field reporter on this Yankees-Rays game reporting on such mind blowing insights such as how Giancarlo Stanton is encouraging his teammates in the dugout is adding so much to my viewing experience

@actualnames.bsky.social I’m guessing you must’ve come across this one. Based on his medical speciality I think this was a case of nominative determination.

Remember when Jonathan Papelbon strangled Bryce Harper in the dugout and everybody saw it except for manager Matt Williams?

I completely forgot the Nationals employed Bryce Harper’s older brother Bryan, a mediocre minor league pitcher, for 8 years just to curry favor with Bryce. As soon as Bryce walked, Bryan was relegated to independent ball.

LMAO, the one color commentator was droning on about how the Braves weren’t about to score off Wheeler and he was going to go the rest of the way.

Cycling TV commentators are hilarious. They write off riders and 10-15 minutes later they’re saying how great they look and talking about how they might win.

During the 2025-26 seasons, the New York Mets have spent more than $800,000,000 in player salaries and luxury-tax and failed to make the watered down MLB playoffs (in which 40% of the teams qualify) in either season. How any GM affiliated with this is ever again employable is beyond me.

Gift, Claudia and Tsé have really been buried pretty deep on the bench recently. I know she had a brief injury but Tsé seemed to lose any minutes ever since Banda worked her over.

The Spirit marketed (and I’m sure fancied) themselves as serious shield and championship contenders again this year, but they seem to have slipped into rebuild mode mid season.
020
Walter S. Obchakeit @deathmetalpedals.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
I wonder if the Spirit are giving any serious consideration to changing the coach during the season. Probably not, but they’ve rapidly gone from serious contenders to looking increasingly looking like one and done in the playoffs.

It seems to me that one of the primary jobs of a coach/manager is to adjust tactics to best fit the available talent

On the positive side, it may not be so hard to swallow when some of these players leave after this season.

Also seems like the plan after they unloaded Bethune was “Leicy and pray she doesn’t get injured”

Unless there’s a dramatic turnaround in the next month, it looks like we’ll be attending the NWSL Championship match as a neutral. Starting to regret paying so much for those tickets. If the Spirit don’t make it, I’m sure the secondary market will crater so there won’t be much salvage value

The Spirit have generated less than 1.00 xG total in the last 2 matches at Audi. At what point does Adrián actually say “The performances and the results aren’t good enough and that’s on me as the coach”? He’s going to stoic himself out of a job

Seems like WAFCON really fucked this team up. Since returning., Rose has been mostly a non-factor, Deb barely played and suffered a SEI injury and Gift has barely seen the pitch (which I presume means she isn’t showing well enough in training to get more minutes).

Walter S. Obchakeit @deathmetalpedals.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Does Adriân ever get mad? It feels like it’s time for somebody affiliated with this team to get mad about these continued subpar performances and results.

Walter S. Obchakeit @deathmetalpedals.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
The fans who came out and sat through the cold rain to support the Spirit deserved a better performance than that. Of course, given the talents and investment in this team, the performances at Audi have been severely lacking this season.

For those not old enough to remember the Flymo, it was a hovercraft lawn mower. The great disappointment was realizing that the wheels you thought were merely preventing the mower from hovering were actually providing directional stability, consistent cutting height, and a visual cue of your work
Bright orange Flymo hover mower with a long handle, designed to float on a cushion of air above the grass rather than roll on wheels.

Flymo engineers: WE HAVE ELIMINATED THE WHEELS!

The user, five minutes later: Put the wheels back. 😆

I don’t believe in Hell, but if there is one I’d imagine it involves listening to Cris Collinsworth, Taylor Twellman and Kirk Herbstreit non stop.
