OWL DOOR, BABE. OWL. DOOR.
Can't let the Danes have all this majesty to themselves.
Well, I have a new project: making a door like this for my house. I have the tools + a nice garage. And I want this. Bad.
Ahead of schedule on the Alabama derangement timeline already
That's my coach. 🦆
this was 2003!

KASIE HUNT: Over the summer you said, “There’s no vaccine that’s safe and effective”. Do you still believe that? RFK JR: “I never said that.” KASIE HUNT: “Play the clip.” RFK JR (clip): “There’s no vaccine that is safe and effective.” (March 2024) ht: @cwebbonline.com
Hell yeah. That's a good lad.

I just really wanted to go to Space Camp (which is in Huntsville) when I was a kiddo. It was always a prize on Global Guts on Nickelodeon and that shit looked fun as hell.

BILL SHANKLY WAS BORN IN GLENBUCK ON 2 SEPTEMBER 1913. I won't write much about him. It's pointless. No words can truly describe his greatness. SHANKLY LIVES FOREVER
Hell yeah. Glad to have ya, Lattimore.
That scene when the Officials first have their meeting in that trailer after the blast. Creeps me out every time.
Tim. Tim. *long pause* Hell yeah, Tim.
Chap-L Bill
Good luck, bud!
I particularly enjoyed the observation about UT Martin.
Mike is going to *love* Eugene / Autzen. Nicest crowd in football. 🦆
As a kid I was playing basketball in a teammates’ driveway in Greystone and the ball rolled down the driveway and across and down the street to Michael Jordan’s house bc he was playing for the Barons and he was checking his mail and when we asked him to pass us the ball he kicked it down the street
Actually this is better, leave the dog on
DOG! THERE'S A BEAUTIFUL, PERFECT DOG!
Every goddamn stupid thing out of his goddamn stupid mouth.
"Do you think he ever knew he wanted to come back here to Chapel Hill someday...?" *sighs* shut up, Kirk. Just...just...shut up.
Deion Sanders and Bill Belichick were never the same kind of coaching situations. Deion was a high school coach and then an FCS college coach before Colorado. He worked his way up and always understood CFB, and he had two elite talents with him.
most revered mastermind in the history of professional football coaches one college game and gets put in a chokehold by a grown man named Sonny
Everything would be so damn intense. Only trip-sit where everyone would understand why you'd abandon them in a parking lot. In Cleveland!

I even called them Dear and they famously hurt me once. That's how much blood I want.

This is a headache night and he knows it.
Now I just want to see one of them try to buy drugs. Imagine Belichik or Saban trying to buy drugs. I bet Pete Carroll could pull it off.
Both of them not speaking for HOURS after the show, Saban just staring at one play in some random playbook until he literally starts crying.
I want to imagine (and love the image of) them deciding "it's May, we have nothing tomorrow....should we fry?" but I can't get over the mental hurdle of figuring out who would be the one to instigate this plan.
"PRETEND YOU'RE PLAYING OREGON AGAIN."
Great time to remind everyone that Bill Belichick and Nick Saban went to a Pink Floyd show together in May 1994
"I am aware of shapes moving inside of clearly defined borders, but god help me if I know what's going on. Compels me, though."
He doesn't even look like he cares, just "what the fuck is this?" the entire time.
Just scanning the crowd after every throw, hoping to see Giselle, gets more desperate with every look. Doesn't see his kids either, but that's okay.
That's his brother. Felt bad giving that much NIL to a clearly rich family, but fuck it we ball.
The Rock (Pacific City, OR version, not Dwayne Johnson)
It was fantastic, and that was just the one time years ago. Definitely going to read it again myself.
If I gotta hang in one of the VIP booths at Kenan tonight it’s gonna be with Roy Williams because he seems like he’d be, and this is the exact word, a “hoot”
Going to be a great movie one day. bsky.app/profile/sirn...
i hope a bunch of sitting NFL coaches text Bill some real condescending “good for you, staying active at your age” shit during this game
100% correct. He's rock & roll's Vince Gill.
My personal friends I used to party with are my age too. This isn’t weird
Shit, this sounds incredible. Should probably read the book again, haven't since it was released. www.indiewire.com/criticism/mo...
Renner's finest hour as an actor, too. What a movie.
Shit, might fire that one up tonight. Has one of my favorite closing scenes, too. The one on top of the mountain. "She ran six miles. Barefoot. Warrior. She was a warrior. But you...?"
"The Coach," directed by Darren Aronosky or David O. Russell or some asshole like that.
He looks like someone Jonah Hill would eventually play because he's a football coach that sells drugs to blind kids and he really wants that Oscar.

If Carolina rolls it’ll be an exact replay of the first month of Coach Prime hype at Colorado before reality kicked in
I like it that Steve Belichik looks like a dude who gets shot on some job that goes awry in the first 30 minutes of a Michael Mann movie. It's a look!
Men should smile more
"Man on the Moon." One of the greatest songs ever written.
And are naturally crazy about committing sexual harassment in nightclubs!
Still waiting to see a wolf in cheap clothing.

*pounds table* MALAPROP! MALAPROP! JESUS HEALING ALL THOSE LEOPARDS!
Bill Belichik's interview with Holly Rowe was very Bill Belichik
"Bon-petite" will live in my brain far, far too long.
Man, now I want to watch WIND RIVER again. That movie ruled.
👏👏👏 @pbfcomics.bsky.social
RIP to a legend.
I'll forgive TCU for the 2016 Alamo Bowl -- we deserved to lose that one anyways, clearly -- if they do the thing tonight. I need it. Already had a great week, a nice Monday to begin this new week would be even more chill.
Yes. Hell yes.
The bank app is telling me to "tap & pay like a boss😏" and "rally my crew". I am 37 years old and you are the bank. Don't talk to me this way.
truly the best sport
Honestly, he delivers me a Natty, he can do what he wants after that. This is my guy. 😂
Take it.
I hope you're right, but, this is CFB in 2025, so...
Yeah, he's a bit of an old, gross prick, bit this is a good bit. I gotta hand it to him here. This is something *I* would do.
Hell yeah, good to hear!
Good luck, Frank. 🫡 (and to the Mrs.)
I don't want Bama to fail. The more they do, the more likely they are to try and poach my dear Mr. Lanning. And I can't deal with that type of newscycle again for awhiiiiiiillllleeee.
It took 24 minutes for a caller to want to fight Paul Finebaum.
Cleaned my room, washed the car, and played the only Pink Floyd album that doesn't suck (DSOTM) while doing it. Not a bad Labor Day, so far.
It's like we get to relive the Shankly & Paisley days or something. What a treat.
