Hate to see a legend go out like this.

Imagine watching 90 minutes - or God help us - 2.5 hours of this as a feature film. This is clearly the future Netflix, Paramount, and Disney want for popular entertainment. And when they crater what’s left of the film business, it’ll be consumers’ fault for not swallowing this shit.

A quarter of these scenes are clearly lifted from National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.

Pretty remarkable that almost 40 years ago: George Bush had to develop an entire vocabulary of racist dog whistles just to campaign. Now, we are here.

100% agreed.

Yes, but also: are we wrong?

Travis: save your t-shirt money and go to therapy.

So much of this feels like overcompensating. Kelce, IMO, should already be retired. Kelce, by his own admission, injured the teammate who was supposed to be the plan B for Rice. Kelce, as we’ve seen on TV for two weeks now, regularly loses his temper with his own teammates.

Ever since the “One day closer to death” presser earlier this year, it’s felt to me like he was angling to get fired.

Full disclosure: I fucking HATE the Cowboys (Go Birds). But also - this interview may be worth your time to watch as a companion to that Netflix series…

I guess so.

Stunning that there’s no decent #3 on this team. Even more stunning that they can’t be honest with themselves about Kelce at this point in his career.

Would it be wrong to assume - with new Colts ownership - that everyone, including the HC and GM, are being prepped to be sent to the wood chipper?

I hate the air show. It’s loud, obnoxious, and a waste of money.

Thank you. I live in the Midwest, from Philly, and miss the ocean. Which beach?

The Fox News chyron cites him as a “PostCast Host”.

A nearly minute long ad where he doesn’t cite a single accomplishment or policy proposal.

But he’s doing great and not going anywhere. Who is this ad for? Eric Adams’s mom?

Okay, so he pooped in every room of the building, bites every employee, and walks around with a permanent boner.

That doesn’t mean the board can just vote him out of office!
