Things that interest me: most sports - I'm big into fantasy football, college basketball, Cubs baseball, and Michigan football/bball, lefty politics, music - all variations of rock and Americana, movies & TV, anything that distracts from the hellscape

Well, the thing we were all convinced would be the Cubs undoing in the playoffs - their bullpen - ultimately didn't matter at all.

That felt like a replay of the top of the 1st yesterday for the Cubs. They look completely overmatched by the opposing starter again

Aramis Ramirez was incredible in this game

Worth remembering - Jim Harbaugh absolutely loves JJ McCarthy, and now McCarthy will be coached by Jim's brother. I guarantee a conversation was had between the Harbaughs before this deal was finalized. Hopefully the change of scenery does JJ some good.

And that finish makes them even more infuriating. Outplayed Iowa up and down the field, but shot themselves in the foot just enough to leave the door open for Iowa to do that.

Through 3 quarters... Total yards offense: Michigan - 330 Iowa - 129 First downs: Michigan - 17 Iowa - 6 Score: Michigan - 13 Iowa - 6 Michigan should be embarrassed that Iowa is still in this game.

The jump and reach on 4th and inches is really dumb if you're not at the goal line. Horrible play call for Michigan.

Watching this Cubs bullpen on a nightly basis just feels like repeatedly punching yourself in the face. No lead is comfortable.

PCA in this series so far: 7-for-13 with a double, triple, 3 HR, a walk, a stolen base, and 8 RBI. And he went 0-for-5 in one of the 3 games. #MVPete

Strong first week of the fantasy season for me... 6-2 in H2H matchups (7-3 overall including games against league median). Survived by the skin of my teeth in a Guillotine League (thank you Isaiah Likely!) Survived in all 5 #FCEliminator leagues - top 3 score in 3 of them, 5th in another.

The Cubs are gonna blow a 7 run lead tonight, aren't they?

Taj Gibson has been one of my favorite NBA players for a long time. Was lucky enough to get to cover a bunch of Bulls games during the Thibs era and see how Taj took care of his business up close A consummate pro on the court and off. Wishing him all the best in retirement & his new coaching career

It's been a brutal week for tight ends so far. Harold Fannin, Colston Loveland, Juwan Johnson, Tyler Warren, and Kyle Pitts have COMBINED for 4 catches and 25 yards.

I know it's still just the first half of the first game, but the P-Wash faders have to be feeling at least a little down bad right now

Is Western Michigan better than Oklahoma? A lot of people are asking

Really love how the announcer tried to sell that the missed FG that stopped the 49ers from turning a 3-possession game into a 3-possession game was a massive break for the Rams' chances, and then the Rams come out with Stetson Bennett at QB.

That was a great pick by Jobe, but that pass was WAY too risky in that situation. You've got overtime in your back pocket already. Take the TD if it's there, but you can't force it.

Nothing makes me happier than watching teams in one of my home league drafts picking kickers and defenses in the middle rounds. Please let more skill players fall to me!

I grew up a Michigan fan, and went to WMU. I genuinely don't know how to feel about this game right now. I guess I'm now rooting for WMU to make the CFP. I think we all gave Whittingham the benefit of the doubt because of his track record, but this U of M team was wholly unprepared for this game

Shawn Foss @shawnfoss.bsky.social · 06/09/2026
WMU might be the best team in the MAC, but this has been a pathetic half from Michigan.

This is just a photo, but we're days away from DHS and it's Secretary posting deportation ASMR videos again. Remember when Markwayne was supposed to be toning down the rhetoric that came from Noem? These Haitians didn't even come here illegally. The cruelty is the fucking point.

Every single pitcher in the Cubs' bullpen is terrible. I don't know how to feel comfortable in any game where the score less than 10 runs

There isn't one Cub relief pitcher you can trust. This team is DOA in the playoffs

A handful of fantasy football players that I believe in this season and am willing to reach a bit above ADP for: James Cook Chase Brown Ladd McConkey David Montgomery Colston Loveland Parker Washington Caleb Williams George Kittle Jayden Reed

It's crazy that the only reason Hull City wasn't playing in League One last season was a goal differential tiebreaker, and now they're 2-0-0 in the Premier League

If David Peterson's day is done for the Cubs, this was his 9th time in 10 Chicago starts where he pitched at least 5 innings and gave up 3 ER or fewer. He accomplished that just twice in 8 starts with the Mets this year. Really savvy pickup by Jed this season. He gives Cubs a chance every time out

There's zero reason for ESPN to do this. Monday Night Countdown had its highest TV ratings since 2017 last year. This is going to drive away more viewers than it bring in IMO

Pete Crow-Armstrong's performance tonight -- featuring 2 HRs, 2B, 1B, BB, K, SB and 3 RBIs -- added 0.5 fWAR to his season total, which is wild. 12 qualified MLB hitters have produced an fWAR less than that this season, including Kyle Tucker (0.4).

Ballmer invested $60M in Aspiration. Aspiration paid Kawhi $28M in an 'endorsement' deal where he didn't have to do anything (and promised him another $20M in stock). This seems like pretty direct evidence that is already public knowledge.

Reminder as preseason football ramps up for fantasy football players - usage is a lot more relevant than stats. We've seen countless players put up big preseason numbers against vanilla defenses who ultimately were useless in fantasy football.

This is an odd photo to choose for this story, given that the only name mentioned in the post is Kevin Warren.
