Two girls sat down in the seats behind me on the metro and proceeded to have a conversation in Portuguese. I had no idea what they were saying but I hit them with the "boa tarde" on my way off the train so maybe they think I did

Things are happening in Blacksburg

What is this nonsense, Atlantis doesn't use rooam for bar tabs anymore? Is this all IMP concerts (930, anthem) now? Something called billfold instead

Doomscrolling is the weaponization of literacy

Also mentioned later in the post, former VT standout and NCAA 800m champion Lindsey Butler got 3rd in the 1500!

CARLEIGH WENZEL HIVE STAND UP

The difference in conditions across the area is wild right now, getting on the train at L'Enfant plaza everything was just rainy then this in Arlington all of 4 miles west

Weird how snow doesn't pile up on the roads when it's gotten above freezing for days

Canada learning why we don't have free healthcare 🎆🇺🇸🦅

Glitter & Goals more like Glitter and GOLDS

USA USA USA

HILARY KNIGHT LET'S GOOOOOOOO 🦅🦅🦅

Glitter & Goals lmao

Bring on Canada. Your precious maple syrup can't save you on the ice

So, just so I understand this... the 2026 NBA All Star game was USA vs the rest of the world, and the rest of the world came in 3rd place

LET'S GO USA 🇺🇸🦅🎆

Come out of that Budweiser commercial immediately into Drake Maye getting sacked 🦅🇺🇸

Look I'm not saying I know what's going to happen tonight, but I do know that somehow we have broken free from the darkest timeline (unless you're a Purdue fan, I guess, but we don't have time to unpack all of that) and this is what I'm rolling up to the party in. Good things are possible

The rush of 2/3 of fan bases trying to claim this mantle

NOT TODAY JAPAN

Hans Zimmer when there’s a new Christopher Nolan movie coming out AND it’s an Olympic figure skating year

🎶 It means no worries 🎶

Maybe the problem is expecting a Corey to do a Trevor's job

My usual hotel was booked, this one has thinner walls. My neighbor was talking, I put ear to wall "So the thing about the LIBERALS-" oh boy here we go "and TRUMP, if he was just on the apprentice still he'd be BELOVED" That's a bit strong but I can squint at what you're trying to grasp at 1/3

Let's goooooo! Last second bacon, too

Run the ball

Welcome the fuck back, Carleigh Wenzel!

Is this a good time to soft launch that ya boy recently became a season ticket holder for the Spirit

Back on my watching deep space nine in a hotel room on Pluto TV bullshit and they have way more commercials now. It used to be that some commercial breaks had none and they would have to just show the Pluto logo for 8-10 minutes at the bottom of the hour because the episode finished early

I could almost do this just with CHVRCHES by themselves (even caught them twice on the same tour) but uh besides that I think most recently Wolf Alice PVRIS Pale Waves Does Renee Rapp count as a "lead singer"?

The Big Short With Big Naturals

Indiana was the worst team in college football for 150 years and then they let you start paying players and they immediately became No. 1 and the only conclusion one can draw is they were the only ones who didn’t realize you could pay players under the table for the first 150 years.

Jamari Sharpe getting the game winning INT is very cool. One of the few holdovers from the Tom Allen era. There’s zero chance he committed to Indiana in December 2021 thinking about a national championship. And now he clinches the title with an interception.

In terms of number of games I have been to in person, Indiana is actually #2 for me (family ties). I have been there for losses to Ball State etc. Never thought I'd see the day, what a win what a season

Here's the funny thing, in the postgame they're going to say "First I want to thank God for wanting that other team to lose" and this time they're actually correct

The sports app

THERE IT IS YES HAHAHAHA YES

What was that timeout

Let's gooooooo

How mad are the refs right now that they actually had to throw a flag

Are you kidding me (complimentary)

This could be about the football game or the bus story or Minneapolis, who’s to say

Gotta say an environment where penalties are not called, heavily favors Miami and takes away an IU advantage

Alright Indiana, just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, "Give me your best shot, pal. I can take it."

Shoulder to shoulder what a hit

DOINK

Haha Taylor Tannebaum's "Alright Coach Belichick, thanks for joining you're off the hook!" with the "Get the fuck out, Bill" undertones he definitely did not pick up on

1st and 20, Belichick: "run it!" (pass goes for a first down)

It's the closest thing we have to the old Coaches' Film Room broadcast (RIP)
