Artillery ranges exist all across the U.S., so there’s no reason to establish one in the Adirondack Park.

We lucked out in northern New York tonight since the northern lights came out.

Watched the video several times, and you can see Hawkins 11 yards off the ball clap twice, to get Carlton Davis’s attention, before making a quick hand gesture. I'm assuming he is signaling a coverage change. It is a BS claim if the Falcons are referring to this.

The Patriots are so back they are getting accused of cheating again.

This article made me laugh. The last time the Pats did this was back in 2002, and it didn’t go quite as planned with reintroducing the introductions yesterday. I’ve always liked the team introduction, but since they’re winning, I don’t really mind the change. #patriots

Holy Moses....I missed this during the game.
Morgan Moses, sheeeeesh.

Also: new run for the #Patriots. Haven't seen much "dart."

I remember watching The Last Chase as a kid and thinking how wild that story was and now I’m wondering if I should build a race car myself.

What do you think of the Patriots’ all-white uniforms for their game against the Saints? Personally, I’m not a fan.

This is a travesty. PBS shouldn’t have to resort to this just to stay funded. It’s a reflection of a government that no longer values programs that serve the public good.

These two showed up near my place this morning and stuck around long enough for some pictures. Watching them absolutely made my day.

Nice to see the Pats are stepping it up each week and what a show last night by Diggs.

In 2004, Green Day highlighted America’s decline, while politicians either failed to recognize the problems or chose to ignore them. Even Frank Zappa noted the issues in 1984. Maybe it's time that we start listening to artist for guidance instead of politicians.

Took Drax on a birthday hike up Rattlesnake Mountain today. Beautiful day in the Adirondacks. AI birthday hat for him since he would never tolerate a real one on his head.

So an anti ICE sniper shoots detainees to show that they are anti ICE? How does that even make sense. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the shooter isn't anti ICE but wanted to portray he or she was.

Another 30% rate hike to upgrade NYSEG’s infrastructure must be rejected. We already absorbed about a 30% increase over the past year and a half. NYSEG should have been investing in infrastructure all along instead of simply taking profits from the already high rates we pay.

The best part of the game was halftime and listening to Julian speak. It was brutal watching the actual football game.

Andy Borregales struggled for the Pats last week and already missed two extra-point attempts in the first quarter. It might be time for New England to start bringing in kickers for workouts. #patriots #NEPatriots

I usually make it to 3 or 4 Patriots home games each year, but I haven’t seen them win at home since November 2022. I expected some tough seasons after Brady, but watching really bad football is getting tough.
