I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

Moments later both ships are engulfed in a snow squall, cutting visibility to zero, and erasing the Edmund Fitzgerald from the Anderson’s radar.

“We are holding our own,” is the last communication ever received from the Edmund Fitzgerald.

The Replacements briefly covered "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" on Oct 15, 1985, the first gig of a 5-night homestand at the 7th Street Entry, opening with a song off their new album "Tim"—"Lay It Down, Clown"—and this was next. Video image is the Entry + the Fitz

I actually worked with him at the (now defunct) Notre Dame College.
What a way to learn that there was a Division I head football coach named Mickey Mental
Weber State has parted ways with football coach Mickey Mental, who went 3-7 this season and was 13-20 (8-14 Big Sky) in three overall years.

Brent Myers (offensive line) has been named interim head coach for the season’s final two games.

Great story.

"A half-century later...“The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” stands as a crucial work of historical preservation for an incident that might have otherwise faded from collective memory."

"Does anyone know where the love of God goes
When the Democrats turn victory into surrender.."
Someone should write a song about the disaster that is the Democrats to the tune of The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald (I have it stuck in my head, that's why).

It's reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaallly hard being a lifelong Cleveland Sports Fan
This MLB indictment is incredible. It alleges, among many other things, that a star Cleveland pitcher was placing bets *during a game* that a pitch he was about to throw would be a ball, and it would be under 98 mph.

Yes
Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

I hate that I've posed more about politics today instead of why Jandek is the greatest artist of the last 50 years, so here's Jandek's arguably greatest song, "Nancy Sings":
