Cam Skattebo runs like he just stole a porkchop from a giant cartoon dog

Getting walked off in OT on a long run (or long screen play) is a unique kind of devastation.

Jessie Bates is an absolute assassin with the Peanut Punch. Total sniper. Unreal accuracy/effectiveness with it.

Falcons clinch the win with the Peanut Punch! (And recovered by Daniels.)

My grandmother and I talked the day of the Dean Scream and she said, “Well I won’t be voting for him.” I said, “Huh? He was fired up and keeping his supporters energized.” She scoffed and said, “That’s not how presidents act.”

One week later, Kendal Daniels nabs his first career INT to potentially seal a win against the undefeated 49ers.

Niners kicker just missed a PAT. I wonder if any ex-Niners kickers who have never missed a kick in the playoffs are free… www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/r...

Thank you @robertloerzel.bsky.social for quoting me in this op-ed in @chicagotribune.com about the Uptown Theatre! I was honored to volunteer at the Uptown during Open House Chicago. There is a lot of momentum and optimism to build on in this moment. Let's keep the conversation going!

Great article by @keeanga.bsky.social in The New Yorker I've been to all 15 counties in TN-09. Many have been overlooked until now. My campaign for Congress focuses on giving them a meaningful voice in our political system. Together, we can win this race. Read: www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...

Love when the timeline gives us a natural double feature :) @juliapoe.bsky.social @jeffash26.bsky.social

went on a run and can report that the great city of Milwaukee is preparing for an unprecedented amount of beer consumption today

An oldie but a goodie ... Heard this on the Green Bay Press-Gazette newsroom scanner 15 years ago today: Someone called 911 to complain that a railroad engineer was parking his locomotive near the bars and going in to get drunk.

It's almost like there was a consensus #1 quarterback prospect in the 2024 NFL draft and we got him.
