Your reminder that Clemson will get through a game Friday at Cal without a lightning delay… …but Cal’s stadium is built on a fault line.

Clemson looks like it will avoid a weather delay next week at Cal (although I feel I should point out the stadium is built over Hayward Fault)

Sometimes when you get really really lucky you feel like you have Charleston all to yourself.

Dropped off Laura for Hayley Williams. Now a few chicken fingers and chill for a bit.

I don’t think I’ve seen Swansea here at any time in this current 9-year Championship run 👀. I am so all in right now.

I know it’s early in Matchday 3, but 3-0 over Derby today and only one goal allowed so far. 🦢👀

Swansea wins 2-1. They looked real good with just a few shaky defensive moments. And they controlled the game even after taking the lead. So much hope suddenly! And I have a new good luck charm. You’re going to have to sit in my lap all the time for Swansea games Billiruben.

We start season 9 in this run in the Championship. Hope always accompanies us at the start, but feeling like the squishy middle. And that CBS Sports bug is wild. That's where I watched the Washington and the Cowboys back in the day.

Double checked my calendar and it’s 2026 not 2006. Of all the things I thought I’d cover this year, election party for a statewide run for Mark Sanford was not on the list.

I gotta say heading back 20 years ago in my mind and having old memories bubble up has been an unexpected twist to this snap SC Republican Senate primary.

If you like a much better chance of your US World Cup experience to finish happier, may I suggest….

If the US makes the quarterfinals I’ll forget all about it but for now, that card has topped this.

As I hang out at the Murdaugh circus, this one starts her real adult job today in her field as she keeps going to school. She's awesome. And she's happy and excited. That makes her Dad happy and excited. 🫶🙂

Today’s music selection is a Top 40 with Casey from 1973. It knows what’s up.

If you’re going to send me to Myrtle Beach for election coverage, we will visit an old friend and find something other than pizza…

That should say 2025. Alas. I got distracted by this gorgeous view.

It's certainly the prettiest venue I've ever been at on election night. (Coverage sponsored by cold brew and 🔥🔥 90s dance hits)

I'm hopeful now. That's dangerous. Trust me. 🙂 As always, listening to an American genre of music as we watch Telemundo. Honoring one of my favorite Americans. And thanks for the photos, Abby!

Earlier tonight I was kind of proud I convinced my wife for about 3 seconds the one on the left was the new trophy the NBA awarded its champion.

I’ve been joined by soccer kitty. This is her first match. Better bring the luck, Alfredo.

Time for the 9th ride on this World Cup train (should be 10. We don’t talk about it) Picked Grumpy Bear pillow on purpose. I’ve never been this uninspired or meh (except for 2-0-1-8 which again we don’t talk about) But check after the first good US chance. I think I’ll be back

I’ve got no reason to root against Czechia except for a long memory.

Jeffrey Collins @jeffreycollinsap.bsky.social · 11/06/2026
It’s just one game, but if that 2nd red and 3rd red are a red all the time and that's where the bar is at for being sent off -- better get used to some tight 4-4-1s and 4-3-1s in this World Cup. Should have bet the over.

I made it through another primary season in South Carolina (well, mostly. Real ones know it isn’t over until the runoff in two weeks) Out in the field this time.

Will anything on my vacation top fixing Mom and Dad's garage door openers so that pushing one button doesn’t open two doors at once or no doors? 🧐

While I brush up on Senate rule 15-B for today’s redistricting debate, I’m missing Mrs. Collins’ class party. It’s slushies this year. (You can read along with me if you really want: www.scstatehouse.gov/senatepage/s...)

A little bit of professional news… Up front – I’m still at The Associated Press. But my role is changing. I have been moved from South Carolina-centric coverage to our national rapid response team. (1/?)

The 2026 South Carolina General Assembly press photo. A most excellent group of people who keep me energized as my stack of legislative manuals keeps growing.
