New favorite player might be Hufanga. That guy rocks.

My solution to every struggling coach/team is to watch Shoresy, so maybe there’s a reason I’m not asked my opinion.

I watched one of those reaction videos on YouTube to a vocal coach (actually more of an opera singer turned YouTube reactor) listening and reacting to Linkin Park’s “Numb,” and I actually came away with a new appreciation for a song I already liked quite a bit.

I’m sorry, but @hollyanderson.bsky.social saying Lane Miserablès got me thinking of Ed Orgeron saying “Prisonuh 2-4-6-EAUX-WUN”

Two weeks into the fall semester and I have already had to redo a box score from scratch. Was hoping we left this behind last year…

MAYBE the clock started early on the second-to-last-play, and that’s why they put another second on??? That has to be the reason, right? Otherwise it’s a blatant, incomprehensible mistake.

Lackawanna Football kicks off tomorrow as a four-year school for the first time, taking on Monroe University. The Falcons are transitioning to NCAA DII and the PSAC from the NJCAA. So, of course, that means Scorigami in my game notes! @sickoscommittee.org Full notes: tinyurl.com/3zkye3d4

A screenshot of the “Scorigami” page from the Lackawanna College football game notes, linked in the post.

Stanford and Hawaii are playing a game that vaguely resembles football

Thinking about the World Cup, how great life was 2 months ago.

I was programming ESPN radio in NEPA when this happened. I remember driving the FUZZ 92.1 van back from an event and listening to Will and Kate Fagan completely bomb out with this segment. It was so bad that Bomani had to phone in while he was on vacation. Incredible radio.

I admittedly haven’t been in the “Pokémon Trading Card Game” game for a long while, so maybe I missed something, but are we erasing the existence of Nurse Joy?!?

A newer Pokémon Trading Card Game card labeled “Pokémon Center Lady” and showing a picture of, presumably, Nurse Joy, with the caption “Heal 60 damage and remove all Special Conditions from 1 of your Pokémon.”

Re-watching Rings of Power and I forgot about my favorite-ever caption in a show. Can’t wait for it to return.

Screenshot from The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power episode 4, The Great Wave, that shows Orcs bowing out of the way from the camera with the caption “Orcs grunt respectively”

They are obviously doing this for the attention, as well as to minimize women’s sports and trans athletes, but now I’m just thinking about the Minnesota Lynx hunting Enes defensively and Olivia Myles putting them on skates before banging home a jumper and, suddenly, it’s not all bad.

At the Jiffy Lube on Meadow Ave in Scranton and they are BLARING a Home Improvement episode on the tv. Like, I’ve never heard Tim Allen at decibels like this.

Just made four baskets in a row at the basketball shooting game at Knoebels and the guy working the booth said he’s never seen someone do that before. I am going to ascend to heaven on top of the Phoenix, full of funnel cake and ready to fight God himself, I’m never coming down.

Scranton’s weird mall is the former Mall at Steamtown, now the Steamtown Marketplace, which is part-Boscovs, part-aquarium, part-medical annex, but the weirdest one in the area has to be the Wyoming Valley Mall in Wilkes-Barre. Just an empty shell of what it once was with a cratered parking lot.

I’m sure the PbP has regrets on this call, so I’m not gonna pile on, but this def sounds like someone who was trying to cram in info (she only starts calling the play as the ball is halfway gone) and got caught off guard. Also, sounds like they’re not even there? Like it’s off a monitor?

Back in my 20’s, my friends and I used to do a pub quiz at a local bar. Dude who ran it would link several nuggets of info together to eventually get to his question…and I never quite felt chasing that high again until @celebrityhottub.bsky.social’s game on this week’s @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social

The little goatee to signify which horse is Kofi is a nice touch, but the broken horned unicorn being Big E made me weep

The right got a big win when the U.S. Supreme Court upheld states banning trans girls from women's sports. What's next? Over at @defector.com, I dig into their plan for essentially winding down competitive women's sports and Title IX — think of it as make women's sports girly again. Gift link:
