Shoutout to Aden Durde, the first British coach to win a championship.

And shutout to Leslie Frazier, who was thrown under the mother of all buses in Buffalo. Now, he's a two-time champion coach.

I had thought, given how much the NFL wants to expand its international audience, that midnight UK time was late for a Superbowl start. turns out they just knew the game was going to be grindy shit
Do you like field goals? Do you like absolutely nothing but field goals? If so, has the NFL got a game for you

if they really wanted people to stand for the national anthem they'd make it jump around by house of pain
More people would stand for the National Anthem if it was 'Yall Ready For This' from 2Unlimited so I don't think people are protesting America when they stay seated it's just that they hate that dusty ass song

Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.

Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

plug this story directly into my veins
Last year, a human trafficking victim trapped in a crypto scam compound in the Golden Triangle region of Laos contacted me. He then proceeded to leak to me a huge collection of the compound's internal materials.

Then he had to get out alive. This is his story.
