the most cursed nfl franchise is pretty obviously the diamondbacks, who in 1998 were transformed into an arizona baseball team by an evil wizard. i'm surprised this is ever debated

would anyone like to discuss mlb trade rumors

i actually don't have a lot of trouble believing that god returned for his flock and the refs were the only ones to be raptured

texas a&m fans right now: "dang it! we lost a playoff game! this one's a heartbreaker, no two ways about it. i guess that's a wrap on this season, but the upcoming offseason at least represents an opportunity to reflect on what we did well this year – and what we need to do better next season."

for retired nfl star pat mcafee, life in the world of broadcasting is a real “kick”

we can't add any more letters it'll make the stars on the flag look weird

let’s admit - as the 27th letter of the alphabet. i mean why not? just look at that little squirt. c’mon

Terrifying headline if you don’t realize they are sports teams.

lots of good players in the nfl these days

this series is unreal good. simultaneously an entertaining exploration of the history of the victorian internet and an excoriating review of the 1990s sitcom home improvement, where both sides enhance and clarify each other in perfect unison. you GOTTA watch this documentary!!!

maybe the greatest pitch frame in baseball history

i recently switched to a new brand of mouthwash that i’m pretty satisfied with

there's a moment here where jon talks about New Job Nightmares that is some of the most stressful documentary-making and editing i've, well, felt.

By far my favorite chart from any of @jonbois.bsky.social's videos

FOOL TIME, part 2 of 4 now free to watch on youtube youtu.be/WmC9fmEOwus?...

episode 2 out tomorrow

Same way I found out about Epstein

it’d be so sick if the super bowl was chargers-rams but they had to go play it in san fran because they were one year off

@jonbois.bsky.social watching basketball

so wait, do you get worse at football as you get older? it seems to me like you would get better at it since you'd have more time to learn football facts

i think philip rivers is gonna stare down that seattle defense and take it to 'em today. young folks might not remember this, but he could really sling it back in his time. now there's one guy who really knows how to wheel and deal out there

i’m going to the store

the weird two-year stretch in which i was older than every nfl quarterback is finally over. hopefully that will never happen again

Ah man @jonbois.bsky.social leveled the fuck up youtu.be/zmyBSrQodnI?...

“The hustle and bustle of the holiday season.” - Jon Bois

it's so cool that bijan robinson rolls with a whole crew of like 10 guys who dress exactly like him. they don't even do anything. what a life

watching football

i'm writing a screenplay called Heart Of A Champion about a guy who has a cold and has to sneeze and blow his nose all the time, but still gets a lot of work done on the computer. not sure yet but i think it'll probably wind up being a christian movie

film flubs: in my cousin vinny, joe pesci’s character speaks in a new york accent despite the movie taking place in alabama

Finally this has hit YouTube! I watched it earlier this year with my partner (an STS scholar) and we both agreed that it’s an excellent/creative way of exploring the problem of technological masculinities. Plus it’s a wild story that’s relevant to the here and now. 10/10, highly recommend

This is a top 3 Jon Bois Production for me, my order is 1) History of The Minnesota Vikings 2) Fool Time 3) The Bob Emergency and honestly I'd be willing to bump it up to 1 if we consider that I'm pretty sure you can fit 2 whole Fool Times in 1 History of the Vikings

I'm not lying when I say this series is probably my favorite from Jon and the secret base team. Extremely worth checking out

FOOL TIME, part 1 of 4 now free to watch on youtube youtu.be/zmyBSrQodnI?...

talk about double trouble: there are two teams in the nfl that are good

tony soprano: [looks up from jukebox] jimmy mcnulty: [bursts into restaurant] tony, it's me, jimmy! i need your help catching a murderer. you're the only one i can trust tony soprano: in this thing of ours, we're all part of the hbo family aj: i can help you guys with my special abilities and skills

beginning my football analysis with the words "well, from a football standpoint,"

in the nfl, coaches love those big play types of guys. big time players make big time plays, and they're always on the lookout for those kinds of big play types of guys

i subscribed to the red zone channel in order to hear the latest about draftkings, but i'd conservatively estimate that 75% of the broadcast has nothing to do with draftkings. they keep trying to shoehorn in all these football games. i don't like football. i don't watch football. what is this shit

so there are different colleges? i always heard people say “going to college,” which made it sound like there was just one of them, like “going to france” or something. but if there are lots of different colleges they need to come up with different names and colors and such so we can tell them apart

in august i posted: "when the dust settles on this football season, the indiana hoosiers will be the top-ranked team in the nation, and the colts, led by daniel jones, will be a super bowl contender! it's all coming up indiana! i am jon." unfortunately, this post was deleted by a computer spam virus

i don't think that they should put indiana in the playoff

mentioned this to a guy who said hey to me at the store yesterday so i might as well say it here: after spending all year on patreon, my four-part series FOOL TIME will drop on youtube this month. one episode every tuesday through the end of the year

Due to some very sad circumstances, this lovely pup Luna is now in need of a home. If you're in the Atlanta area and you're looking to bring a dog into your world, Luna would be a fantastic addition to your family.
