Christian McCaffrey I love you

Is there a tipping point for people who think Christopher Nolan is a visionary genius no matter how middling his films are? Find out by watching The Odyssey, in theaters this summer.

People complain about Christmas stuff being out too early but this is at Mariano’s today

I have no idea if Murakami is going to be good but it's cool that the White Sox will have someone new and interesting worth watching next year

Going to watch Packers-Bears at a bar for the first time since moving to Chicago. Will see how good of friends @doctor1hundred.bsky.social and @jrfegan.soxmachine.com really are if I get drunk and run my mouth enough for someone to want to fight me.

Teams that lost to Texas this year are now 0-2 in the College Football Playoff

Las Vegas Raiders defensive coordinator Brent Venables

Will Venable > Brent Venables

Heisman*

Thinking about how late in the second quarter OU was about to go up 24-7, but the receiver dropped the ball, and then the punter dropped the ball, and instead it was 17-10, and then like a minute later it was 17-17.

Texting with OU alum friend

So John Mateer is basically poor man's Tebow is what I'm gathering

The No. 1 movie when you were 10 is how your 2026 is going to go.

If it weren't for the hats I wouldn't know which one I was looking at when they show Brent Venables or Kalen DeBoer

That game whipped ass. I was seconds from going to bed when it was 30-14 in the fourth quarter.

Pardoned

Prison for Blake Corum

Both of my coworkers decided to use my office today

I am continuously annoyed that someone, somewhere, decided that "A Knives Out Mystery" was necessary behind the titles of the Benoit Blanc films, as if the audiences are too dumb to connect the dots. Anyway, I really liked Wake Up Dead Man. My review: wannawatch.substack.com/p/wake-up-de...

hey if you're wondering "has a baseball website covered whatever the fuck Miller is talking about, for some reason and done it more accurately than he is?" the answer is absolutely, yes: www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article...

Just realized Lunch Winfield's real first name is D'Wayne so you can call him D'Wayne The Lunch Winfield.

Wife went out to dinner with a friend so you know what that means: time to drink zero (0) beers and play some Balatro

Hamnet successfully portrays grief and emotion in a way few films have. My latest review on Wanna Watch: wannawatch.substack.com/p/hamnet-2025

Hamnet successfully portrays grief and emotion in a way few films have. My latest review on Wanna Watch: wannawatch.substack.com/p/hamnet-2025

Me halfway through Hamnet: This is kinda basic. Maybe disappointing by Oscar Favorite standards. Not really doing much for me. Me by the end of Hamnet: This is a masterpiece. Looking forward to trying to write about this one.

Update: she made way too many goodies so is making gift packages for our neighbors instead of giving them to me.

Extremely here for "McCarthy looks kinda OK the last month of the season and the Vikings commit to him for 2026"

Every NFL star has gotten hurt in the last 30 minutes and Philip Rivers remains

Me at halftime: Packers could get the No. 1 seed. Me at the end of the third quarter: Season's over.

Testing Surtain 1-on-1 a major Heat Check by Love and not only did it not work but it got Christian Watson hut (again)

Tim Robinson goated

People complain and rightfully so to the frequency with which people react to sports news through the lens of sports betting, but reacting to news based on TV ratings, which no fan should ever care about, is also very stupid.

People who think Philip Rivers is throwing the ball weird because he's old and hasn't played in five years are simply forgetting what it was like the watch Philip Rivers play quarterback from from 2004-20

Josh Whyle of the Packers is questionable to return (embarrassment)

Colts started a trend in calling up Philip Rivers when they needed an emergency QB, so the Chiefs are already on the phone with Elvis Grbac to start next week.

Had out-of-town friends visiting this weekend, the coldest days of the year, so spent most of Saturday outdoors at the Gallagher Way Christkindlmarket, Mag Mile, etc. My entire body is frozen, but a good time was had by all.

Wife and I checked this out a few weeks ago as they have them at a local coffee shop we frequent. Always a fan of niche print media!

Today I wrote about Jay Kelly and how sometimes in life you just need to stop and eat the cheesecake. wannawatch.substack.com/p/jay-kelly-...

Lane Thomas is somehow the Royalest Royals signing possible

My least favorite recent trend of a particular degree of curmudgeon is people setting up cameras and recording themselves watching their team's big game, as if all of their reactions are interesting and normal and not for the sake of the camera.

Went to a wedding this weekend. This elderly couple went on the dance floor during the anniversary dance when they announced “50 year” and did exactly this for approximately the next two hours. I legit never saw them not on the dance floor. Perhaps a bit of levity for your dreary evening.

Fuck yeah we're finally getting Minority Report 2

I don't blame Steve Cohen for what he's doing. This is gonna be his first lockout and he's probably got the jitters.

Roch Cholowsky?

Absolutely thrilled to learn that the player who is currently most mentioned as the potential No. 1 overall pick is named Roch Cholowsky.

Hell yeah the White Sox won something

The Chair Company (2025)

Exactly half of my PS5 time this year has been spent playing Dead By Daylight and that's probably my lowest total playtime of that game since like 2019.

Seahawks got to face Max Brosmer last week and get to face Riley Leonard or Brett Rypien next week
