Nightmare fuel for your Thursday, per Greder: Brady Denaburg is only player from 2025 roster who might be able to come back this fall given recent court case to temporarily allow those in 2022 class a year of eligibility. He's with team, would join competition with Beckham Sunderland, Daniel Jackson

@patricksaxton.bsky.social From RJ's practice write-up: - Malachi Palmer and Winters Grady both missed practice with ankle sprains. Seems like the Palmer injury was more recent, Winters looks closer to getting back.

It’s been five years since Alex Jones lost InfoWars to the Sandy Hook families. As the verdict came down, he asked: “Do these people actually believe they’re getting any money?” He hasn't paid them a penny. Well, The Onion is going pay them anyway. The new InfoWars begins July 2nd at 8 p.m. ET.

The Onion says it won’t wait for the courts, will launch Infowars to pay Sandy Hook families
The Onion’s staff is tired of waiting for the courts to settle its pending takeover of Alex Jones’ brand, so the new Infowars will launch next month.

Oh good, they scheduled home games against St. Thomas. Surely there are no catastrophic downsides to that compared to the extremely limited upside.
