Being part of this initiative changed my life and a lot of that is because of who Mike Siglain is as a person and creative director and how hard he fought to make the High Republic what it was all along the way
5 years ago today we launched #StarWarsTheHighRepublic w/ LIGHT OF THE JEDI and A TEST OF COURAGE. What an overwhelming, surreal, and incredible journey it’s been. Thank you to all the readers, fans, & creators for joining us on this grand adventure. We still have many more tales to tell!

Just had a conversation with someone about Pete Carroll being fired and after a lot of meandering, eventually got it to watching him download Who Killed College Football

If you're anywhere near Nashville and are free tonight, go check out the FCS title game. Tickets are very reasonable (compared to what they usually cost in Frisco).

A lot of times when I hear about a coach firing I feel bad for the coach but it sounds like this guy is free of the prison of this inept franchise so I'm happy for him.

The best kicking regular season in NFL history ends with a missed XP and a missed 44-yard FG both in the final minute.

I think it’s Mike Golic Sr. who deserves credit for the quote but the great thing about the Ravens-Steelers rivalry is their combined team colors are the same as a bruise.

Kim 0-2 since Lane joined her on campus.
Vandy gets its first top 5 win since 2009 and LSU falls to 0-2 in the SEC. Vandy scored 11 of the final 16 after Kentucky finished on an 11-3 run in LSU’s previous game. Outscored 22-8 down the stretch of their first 2 SEC games. #NCAAWBB

Really wish we’d gone back to Auburn for this one but work weekend and whatnot.
Lady Vols were way too much for Auburn to keep up with.

Strong games from Talaysia Cooper and Janiah Barker result in a combined 35 points, 13 rebounds, four assists, five blocks and five steals.
