for those who saw yesterday's Pablo Torre Finds Out where Chris Nowinski said Guardian Caps aren't safe for youth football players, there's a local connection: Gov. Gavin Newsom just signed a law requiring leagues to allow kids to wear them in youth football leagues www.sfgate.com/sports/artic...

Country's leading CTE expert says Guardian Caps aren't safe for youth football
Like football skill, Guardian Caps are at their best at the NFL level.

Told Bucs-fan nephew that Todd Bowles always looks. Or puzzled. His teams have played like it.

While everyone was focused on whether Paramount should own CNN, everyone missed another part of the picture... A combined CBS-TNT Sports gives Skydance the largest collection of premium sports rights on broadcast and cable TV. Read more: thedesk.net/2026/10/skyd...

My alma mater is listed among FanWord's partners. Now it's personal. Although maybe not surprising for a school that let a parasite into its sports HOF. #NeverForget

Maybe I'll give Threads another try (after I watch the season!). I get frustrated with Meta apps because they're nowhere near chronological.

NFL players of the world, drink up!

In joint statement, NFL and NFLPA say drinking celebrations will be permitted
For "gray area" celebrations, NFL will communicate with player before fining him.

As someone who made a few bucks writing these stories in college, it's depressing. As if not having humans write and collect stats didn't already suck.

Why I asked. When I saw the words "referees" and "investigation" on my phone yesterday, that was my immediate thought. Then I read the stories.

And yet how many of you when you heard NFL officials were being investigated, thought gambling/preciction markets before you read what the accusations really were? #PR

If you're in these states, *TODAY* is deadline to register to vote. Arizona, Arkansas Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas. Even if you think you've registered: doesn't hurt to check! And there's a lot happening across them. A thread with stakes on each. ⬇️

New on @athlonsports.bsky.social: The NFL already has enough issues with officiating competence. But if officials are also allowed to act like teenage brats on the field, that's a problem. Adrian Hill and Jeff Seeman must be held accountable for their actions. athlonsports.com/nfl/nfl-offi...

NFL Officials Can Dish It Out, But They Sure Can't Take It
The NFL has reached a point of no return with its officials, who appear to want to be the stars of the show more than ever. Adrian Hill and Jeff Seeman have some explaining to do.

It’s an NFL Sunday, which means it’s the perfect time to confirm your voter registration status. Or to register to vote. Or to request your mail in ballot. Then, vote early. But, vote. Like your life depends on it. Because in so many ways, it does.
