The biggest issue with social media is that it rewards delusional thoughts. Someone saying something ridiculous receives attention & potential shared revenue on X / FB / Instagram.
That attention has value in social media world. If this person said it in a physical location, they'd be kicked out.

Most promising stuff about Bryce Underwood on a rewatch:
1. Mechanics - feet & throwing motion are as efficient as they come. Excellent technique.
2. Pocket Presence - ability to keep his eyes downfield while adjusting to pressure is +++.
3. Ball Placement - a few misses, otherwise exceptional.

Wild to think that you could be shipped off to El Salvador with no due process, and the response of the administration to the unanimous supreme court ruling is quite literally "🤷♂️".

Can we just have a ref automatically at the review table? This shouldn't take more than 10 seconds to confirm the call and move on.

You would think that people on Twitter / X would realize 90% of posts are made with the INTENTION to make you angry / engage with hate on their post.
Hate = engagement. Engagement = $$$.
The author of that post is thinking "what will get people mad" and people fall hook line and sinker for it.

The most important I thing did in college was a 2-day barrage of welcome week meetings for various engineering clubs (Solar Car, etc).
I was tentative CS in Engineering at the time. Every single time I mentioned "CS" their eyes lit up. And it was EVERY club.

Any man who is having a bunch of kids and failing to be present in their lives is a piece of shit, in my eyes.
If you cannot or are unwilling to help raise your children, but are continuing to have additional children, how are you NOT a piece of shit?

I'm a big proponent of "learn from people's behavior, not from their words." Essentially actions > words.
Truly feel like too many people value what an individual says more than what that individual does.

Great advice for dem politicians, but it also applies to people, in general.
Have empathy first for people & their problems. Listen & gain understanding. Acknowledge their struggles & pain.
THEN you can focus on solutions & how your approach will be addressing their problems.

This is advice every dem politician should take to heart.
Don’t sell against the competition.
Sell what you are doing to reduce people’s stress and make their life better
It’s not about what’s wrong with the competition. It’s about what is right with you

I found that the best way to build a business is to build a relationship with your customers ask how they are doing, how are the kids , how did their dad’s surgery go, show interest in them and mean it because they know what they want

I'm convinced that at least 20% of people you see in political replies on X are bot accounts. Even 20% feels low.

In the wake of tragedy, good leaders do not immediately cast blame.
Empathy for lives lost, reflection, and leaning on a thorough investigation are all appropriate paths to take in those scenarios.
The person in charge of the most powerful nation in the world misses that mark...egregiously.

Apparently you'll get pardoned for assaulting police officers as long as you're rioting in the name of Trump. Absolutely insane.

I truly think the world would be a much better place if this was said (and believed) by everyone:

One of the best things about CFB was the stakes of the rivalry games:
1) The biggest rivalries were held at the end of the season.
2) Rivals only played once a year.
I say "was" because #2 has drastically changed. Now, Michigan / OSU could very easily occur 3 times in a given season.
