It feels appropriate that the best reporting from The Atlantic and The New York Times has been by seasoned war reporters who understand the stakes and, by extension, the need to protect sources or sensitive information.

From weeks 11-18, Sam Darnold had a QBR of 8.2 under pressure--27th league-wide.
Last night, he threw all 3 TDs under pressure. Talk about conquering your demons.

Something that caught my eye--the Seahawks used trips at the lowest rate in the NFL this year (per NGS data). Yesterday, they used it at a rate that would've ranked in the top ten.
Great adjustment by Kubiak vs LA's zone coverage.

This was from a Kentucky middle school basketball game on the 23rd where a scuffle breaks out between the parents.
The commentators say “they just tased Ryan” and it’s been living in my head ever since.

During the Soviet era, at times of govt instability, the state broadcaster would typically preempt scheduled broadcasts by airing performances of Swan Lake
And, tonight, the network's flagship news program -- 60 Minutes -- ran a clip show of old celeb interviews to "celebrate the movies" rather than put together an episode focused on what's going on in Minnesota.
The person who publishes the Free Press — where the words “Minneapolis” and “Minnesota” never appear tonight — also runs CBS News.

This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.
Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared.
