I am not the expert that @dieworkwear.bsky.social is, but I feel comfortable enough to say that Mike Nolan has that shit ON in this photo.
The turnovers stat popping up, and it being so lopsided, makes this GIF for me, every time I see it.
Is only four yards of offense with 1:22 to go in the third quarter good?
Wasnt really sure how to feel about The Summer I Turned Pretty, but the use of Bizarre Love Triangle pushes up a level for me.
This looks like how a person from Philadelphia pronounces Mordor
Is Collinsworth a Grave Digger guy? I feel like he enjoys the classics
The story about the NHS surgeon purposefully removing his legs for a sex kink, only to then be thrown in jail, seems like an appropriate story to be above the King of Town from Homestar.
That dog is asking for the headphones off. He wants to vibe with his good friend Dave Matthews
DEBATE MODERATOR: Our next segment is called Remember Some Guys. Former Governor Cuomo, please begin. CUOMO: Alex Rodriguez? (crowd grumbling and booing; hot mic picks up someone saying "not a Guy") MAMDANI: Lucas Duda (crowd going nuts)
This was, more-or-less, a list of guys I always ended up with in Fantasy Drafts playing MVP Baseball 2004 or 2005. Chone Figgins was so fast, and I loved used Zito. Also, Ellis Burks was always a free agent pickup and he’d crush at the plate.
They had Super Bowl winning quarterback Brad Johnson’s kid on the bench the whole time?!?
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
To a team from Texas, CURIOUS
He said this ain’t St. Louis and Kurt Warner, Billy Boy!
Nobody touched him!
Waiting in line at the McCarthy Tire for someone to come pull a nail out of his tire.
Okay, so the actual funniest way for this game to have gone is exactly what’s happening: UNC scores immediately on its opening drive, then looks absolutely lost and overmatched the rest of the way.
They have sounded so good in every clip I’ve seen.
Holly say it, don’t let them stop you!!!
This was fun to write and highlight the local kids vying for playing time and significant roles on this year’s Lackawanna College football squad
No no, Joseph is my father. Call me Jack Manjack
“Thank you so much-a for to playing my game!”
Muscle confusion!
Spencer TikToks are the Buffalo Wild Wings button for 2025. Business solutions for a digital age!
I, for one, am completely shocked Miami failed to score a touchdown after an INT, and now Notre Dame is about to tie the game.
Tennessee is the superior Orange school!
One of these fan bases is going to be SO MAD
@shutdownfullcast.bsky.social I realize there is football happening, but have you seen the Will Smith story about him using fake AI generated crowds in his tour video?
They said Fox and Friends is “not” a show
Maxton Schexnaidler looks like the letter X is a virus that has infected the actual name.
Me at 1:30am watching two people I have never seen before react to the Balrog fight in Fellowship of the Ring
The Fall of Arlo White continues apace.
The Play To Make America Great (Shadow Realm QB in front of the real one, a “Pluff” route by the TE split out wide, and a wheel route that never ends and also runs over the RB?)
Watching Happy Gilmore 2. The flashbacks and cameos from everybody that was in the first one is killing the movie for me.
Premier League is back. Peter Drury waxing poetic. I need NBC to exert some pressure and get him to call exactly one (1) NBA game this season, just so I can bask in him crescendoing on a LeBron stuff like it’s the opening South African goal from the 2010 World Cup.
When she says “praude” in Mother We Share’s chorus, I’m dreaming of haggis
Finding this logo, slightly editing it, and then recoloring it is something I hope leads to us using it as a throwback a lot more. #GoFalcons @lackawannafalcons.bsky.social
“Beware of the Burger King a..ND ITS FOUL TEMPTRESS WITH HER SIREN SONG!!! MANY A SHIP CAPTAIN HAS BEEN WAYLAID BY THE PROMISE OF WHOPPERS! STEER CLEAR OF HER MURKY DEPTHS!”
I always knew Craig Kilborn would be the first Sportscenter anchor to be President.
I giggled like a school girl when I saw it in a closet at my parents house.
*Zack Mills intensifies* @treblaw.bsky.social
Notice how any random dude from any league will say something and be referred to as a “star,” but David Justice said something so dumb and egregious that even the tabloids were like “Nope, he does not get that designation.”
I remember the relief that washed over me when my parents (including my cancer surviving father) both got their shots, and then the sense of pride and duty I felt getting mine at my local price chopper grocery store.
The Scouring of the Shire was always one of my favorite chapters and, while I completely get why it was excluded from the movies, I wish I got to see it when the films came out!
First suspect
Need it so bad
Oh wow, this title card from the TV show almost happened.
“GIMLI! Stretch your hands across the sthky!”
I think about @hollyanderson.bsky.social saying “Shadafax!” as Dusty Rhodes at least once a week
There’s a lot of conversation on the other site about how the “stomp, clap, hey” era of music was bad, and I just want to say to those people: Shut up.
Took some inspiration from @jonbois.bsky.social and UCF’s game notes for @lackawannafalcons.bsky.social football this year. Scorigami!
Hoodie season can be non-linear. One day, then a bunch of unrelated season days, then it’s hoodie season again for like a weekend. It’s fine!
Finally watched Tropic Thunder
R.I.P.
A Talkback 16 classic.
My brain read this as Jordan Clarkson at first
This looks like something Ironghazi made up.
We have to go back.
Throat slashed

God that bass/drum part at the beginning is so good.
I have made two game-winning basketball shots. 1) Biddy 🏀. Hit an elbow jumper off an inbounds pass (with contact!) and made the shot with a little over a second to play. Missed the FT, but other team missed their shot to win. 2) Hit a runner from the top at the horn in a rec league game.
At my father-in-law’s house, where he has the Big Ten Network on. Uh, Brett Bielema said that Illinois has to have a chip on both their left and right shoulders this year? @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social
“They called them the Hardy Boyz. That’s right…the Hardy Boyz. Hardy Boyz. With a Z. No one knows why, can you believe it? Never been seen before.”
Ozzy. Hulk. Quick, someone locate John from John and Kate Plus 8. They’re coming for the mid-2000’s Reality Show Dads.
Metal Gear alert noise every time A&M throws a pick this year
Hear us out
Anyway, here’s “Bark at the Moon,” where Ozzy is excellent on the vocals and Jake E. Lee has one of my favorite guitar performances. The solo is obviously very good, but man, this riff goes hard. Rest In Peace to Ozzy Osbourne. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LplP...
Ultimately, the promoter took the CYC to court, and it made it to the PA Supreme Court, but the injunction to prevent the show from being canceled never came, and the show never happened. Ozzy eventually made it to Scranton, playing Montage a handful of times, including 1996.
The reaction was mixed. The kids that got tickets were obviously upset, and there were a few letters to the editor that went so far as to say we are a communist state and free speech was being suppressed. And there were lots of other letters of adults reveling in taking away a rock concert.
Allegedly, aside from his “ties” to satanic worship, the Diocese of Scranton was getting inundated with threats of protests outside the venue if Ozzy came to town. It was enough that they eventually canceled the show, two weeks before it was set to happen.
The announced show sold out its 4,000 tickets in like a day. And, a few days later, rumors began swirling that the show was going to be canceled. Apparently the reverend in charge of the CYC at the time had never heard of Ozzy?
Rest In Peace to Ozzy Osbourne, an absolute insane person I never thought would die. Ozzy is most famous in NEPA for a concert that never happened.
Drew Carey Show, counting Whose Line as a spinoff.
Did someone see the Ratatouille happening in universe, and it was so inspiring that they went on to create the Jaegers from Pacific Rim?
Keep Fishin’ is so good
I understand that the ten outs format could drag on and was supposedly stale. But this…I dunno, there is just no life on these monster shots. Sosa hit one 520 in 2002 (according to the broadcast) and it had time to breathe. This feels like BP. Crowd has no time to react.
“I was wondering what would break first…your mind…orderberdie”
Thinking about the 1986 Pennsylvania Gubernatorial election, pitting Robert P. Casey (Dem) against William Scranton (Rep), and wondering if it’s the only gubernatorial race to pit two guys from the same city (Scranton) against each other?
The Red Sox
This happened in 2017. I spent the previous four months executing a radio station rebrand. I went on my bachelor party for a weekend and came back that Monday. I had an impromptu meeting on a Thursday and was laid off for “restructuring.” My replacement was hired and in the office four days later.
This guy sucks and he says things loud and wrong for attention, but I wanted to point out, like many others have, that these millennials he decries got fired or let go for trying to be loyal. Like I did. Two weeks before my wedding.
I’m usually okay at figuring out what’s a bit and what isn’t with those people…and I’m flummoxed by missing on that guy.
Hey @edsbs.bsky.social go on home baby they’re ready for you
What happened to RGIII, man?
Biting the water is killing me
“Milk busin” here, so it’s the gift that keeps on giving
Can someone also edit in Mike Breen “BANG” for every punch?
Like, it spans from just east of State College to the Poconos, then the NY line north down to like Allentown south. It’s a ridiculous coverage area, and it handles all of the Skook.
One of the most important moments in the history of Northeast PA. Buc-ee’s billboards. In Dunmore. What an historic day.
Ronald McDonald in a compromising position with a guy wearing fish slippers. ALERT: @treblaw.bsky.social WNEP story: bit.ly/3Tsxp7K
Jurassic World marketing pulling out all the stops.
If Marv, Bill Walton, and Steve Snapper Jones somehow reunited for the return of the NBA on NBC.
This and the studio “American Land” on this album go so goddamn hard
