The fact that the Ducks were a 2-point conversion from tying that game is a massive testament to the defense. Played lights out. And Brock Thomas should be our #2 QB going forward. He should have been in at the half.

You have to bench Raiola at this point. He’s just atrocious.

I don’t see how Lanning just change the QB at the half. This is an astounding display of bad QB play by Raiola.

Kevin Briody @kevinbriody.bsky.social · 10/10/2026
This has to be the worst coached Oregon offense in years, certainly in Lannings tenure. Just an insane waste of raw talent.

This is my fantasy football bench currently. Admittedly it does simplify my start vs sit decision stress.

Something horrible happened, from a financial perspective, to me on TikTok: my feed landed on #watchtok and my previously dormant fixation on watches woke back up. This is never good for my wallet.

Admittedly as a Duck fan this is one of the most conflicting games to watch, especially this week. Maybe hope for a 0-0 tie? #goducks

“Does it matter?” This is horrendous response to the acknowledgment that kids are losing basic math skills due to overreliance on AI. It’s a fast path to real world idiocracy.

Thank you Uncle Phil! Plugs a major hole in UofO's academic offerings, and to be blunt relevance to today's workforce and research needs. There are historical reasons why Eugene hasn't had an engineering school, nice to see that gap fixed. Go Ducks! www.oregonlive.com/silicon-fore...

I’ve been a Duck fan since 1993. Given the insane level of talent we had on the field today, this has to be one of the most putrid performances by a Duck football team I’ve ever seen. Play calling has been atrocious on both sides. Go Ducks always, but Dan make some changes fast.

Some life from Dante! Maybe we should start every game in the 3rd quarter?

Kevin Briody @kevinbriody.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
That was about as ugly a half of football as I have ever seen the Ducks play. Minus the picks we’d be getting blown out. Inexcusable with this level of talent on both sides of the ball.

Point #1 is where I firmly believe the real value in marketing AI will ultimately be found. Most marketing use cases gaining traction are some flavor of automation - and you don't need bleeding edge AI models for that; we hit "good enough" 2-3 gens ago, now we're exploring practical application.

Robinhood now makes more money from prediction markets than it does from stock trades or crypto. This adds weight to my theory that Bitcoin and crypto has crashed due to competition from Polymarket and Kalshi for the online gambler demographic.

“90% of students use AI in the classroom, Instructure poll finds.” The tech, and student adoption of it, is wildly outpacing the ability of schools and educators to adapt to it.

There’s a case to be made for rethinking the bachelor degree, but I worry the foundational idea of providing a well-rounded education and encouraging students to explore and discover will get sacrificed along the way.
