COLUMN: Brian Kelly is out of answers at LSU. He might be out of time, too. Is he worth a $53 million buyout? The Texas A&M team that beat up LSU on Saturday shows why it may be worth the risk. Me from Baton Rouge: www.nytimes.com/athletic/675...

LSU went from winning at halftime to one of the most embarrassing losses of Brian Kelly’s tenure in less than a quarter.

Time to start gathering the buyout money

Mansoor Delane should be CB1 in the draft

Googling defibrillator prices while watching my favorite team play

they might have to fire McDaniel today

I’m very ready for the Brian Kelly era to end.

Diego Pavia is ruining my life

I'm not sure how LSU got a 62 yd TD out of this but Zavion Thomas did

I’ve never woken up on an LSU-Vanderbilt gameday so sure that LSU — a talented LSU team at that — will lose.

My favorite football team is so unenjoyable to watch

we all did it

DAAAAA [INSERT WINNER] LOSE

no one deserves to win this game now

I remain convinced Cal Raleigh is a plumber who received super soldier serum

This game got me saying shit like good gravy and ayiyi to myself

Baseball’s rule book has been around for 783 years and somehow manages to let the game fall straight into the phantom zone at the worst possible moments

What a truthful baseball

That’s a bad call, right?

the winner of this should just be given the World Series trophy

Apologies to anyone who has seen me in person the last three days and heard me mutter “DAAAAA YANKEE LOSE!” every 35 seconds

praying for my Philly pals tonight

I might’ve been the only one watching Yanks/Jays and WNBA Finals in multiview but I’m pretty sure both games ended within five seconds of each other

Good for Spencer Rattler. He’s been playing much better than the Saints’ 0-4 record indicates.

I read this in the Auburn radio announcer's Kick Six voice

The Saints are going to win a football game

this is disgusting, man

yeah, LSU is a three-loss team.

The fact that USC-Illinois is a conference game is still so gross

watching Max Johnson play for Bill Belichick at North Carolina in 2025 is another sign we live in an unnatural world

I’ve already accepted an LSU loss. It’s better this way. Geaux Tigers.

you are far from alone on this, as we’ll talk about in the newsletter tomorrow.

Tyrann Mathieu is probably, overall, the best Louisiana college/pro athlete in my lifetime. I can't wait for him to replace Brian Kelly.

The 'Stud Budz' streaming duo took center stage during WNBA All-Star Weekend. While live on Twitch, Lynx guards Courtney Williams and Natisha Hiedeman gave fans a behind-the-scenes look at everything from conversations in their hotel room to parties to locker room scenes.

This shit is electric man. Best all-star game we have right now.

realized this morning I’ve reached a new level of washed because I had a dream about CDs. Not music, no, but certificates of deposit

Excited to see @theathletic.bsky.social leading the way in innovating here. Our Audience team is phenomenal. www.niemanlab.org/2025/07/blue...

logged into Twitter and saw grok calling itself “MechaHitler,” maybe I’ll spend some more time over here

so friggin cool to see @brodymiller.bsky.social’s name on a book cover. You should buy it a.co/d/34ZnwGT

does Nico Harrison already have one of the most, uh, consequential GM tenures in NBA history?

Imagine being the Wizards and seeing Dallas — who just completed the worst trade in NBA history — skip you in line for a generational superstar. Unbelievable.

Have any defending champions felt like a bigger group of losers than this Celtics team?

dude who just saw Sinners: the Stars are like vampires guys

saw Sinners tonight. Two things: -it absolutely ripped -it was incredible to see our theater packed on the movie’s third weekend. Real cinema.

Did the Saints just draft a millennial?

The official Pulse NFL Draft stance tonight: The Saints must be nice to me.

found a Final Boss Wife Guy at the beach this week

Unbelievable stuff. Go Rory.
