So the MCU of fantasy literature could become the next, well, MCU.
Sanderson’s creative control is interesting, as is making movies with a streaming partner that doesn’t have a strong theater/moviegoing foothold.

Apple has secured the rights to Brandon Sanderson’s ‘COSMERE’ universe in a major deal.
• ‘MISTBORN’ set as a film franchise
• ‘THE STORMLIGHT ARCHIVE’ to become a TV series
• Sanderson retains significant creative control

Jim Harbaugh and Mike McDaniel— personalities so polar-opposite, you’d think they were in a buddy cop movie.
NEWS: The Chargers are expected to hire former Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel as their next OC, sources tell me and Daniel Popper.
McDaniel has been a hot commodity this cycle, interviewing for both head coach and offensive coordinator roles. In the end, he opts for L.A.

If they’re firing the head coach, they’re probably parting with OC Joe Brady as well, which could sting. IMO he called a great game on Saturday.
Could go offense like Mike McCarthy, could go with a creative defensive mind like Jesse Minter and pair him with a proven OC, maybe Kliff Kingsbury.

I struggle to understand the overlap seen in modern culture between not paying attention to tv/movies (2nd screening) and nitpicking a disliked tv show/movie to death. Is it chasing the high of loving/hating something? Is it the online attention that can be gained from that love/hate?

Made 1 play on a gotta have it drive. Terrible execution before this play, somehow worse execution after. I didn’t know the Pop Tart Bowl could be ruined for me, but here we are. A remarkably pathetic ending to a promising season.

Lemon over Jeremiah Smith is like if Golden Tate won an award over Calvin Johnson. Both are good players, but come on.

3 Pie Takes
1. Pecan is the best. Whipped cream perfects it.
2. Cheesecake is a pie and the 2nd best pie there is.
3. Pate sucree (the “normal” slightly sweet pie crust) is the worst kind of pie crust. Layer some filo! Crush up some graham crackers or ginger snaps! Don’t settle for mediocrity!

So my pie take is there are no bad pies, but some pies have to be eaten a certain way:
1. Pecan: Always good
2. Fruit: Must be homemade. Otherwise bad.
3. Pumpkin: Best eaten cold at 7 am standing over a sink before everyone wakes up

Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.

When I think of the funniest people I’ve ever seen, one of the places my mind goes to is Patricia Routledge, specifically playing the boisterous yet vulnerable Hyacinth in the British sitcom Keeping Up Appearances. Physical humor, subtle comedic timing, she did it all. A legend that will be missed.

Halfway through the manga/anime, the story got rushed, and now it’s getting a live action tv adaptation, which famously tends to rush its source material. No thank you. First 4 seasons of the anime rip though.
The live-action ‘MY HERO ACADEMIA’ remake is moving forward at Netflix.
Jason Fuchs (Wonder Woman) is writing the script.

Jerry Jones needs to hang it up. This is inexcusably bad. You can’t replace a Micah Parsons, and you’ve operated with other key pieces (Dak, CeeDee, George Pickens) as though you’re in a win-now window. Terrible team management. No vision.
🚨 🚨 🚨
The Cowboys are trading All-Pro Micah Parsons to the Packers & they agreed to a 4-year, $188M deal done by David Mulugheta and Andre Odom of Athletes first including $136M gtd, per me, @tompelissero.bsky.social & Jane Slater.

One of my favorite Celtics players of the 2000s was Ray Allen. He went to the rival Heat.

Quite the parry from the NBPA. Ownership used the last CBA negotiations to pinch pennies? Fight back with one of the best bag-getters in the league.
FROM SHAMS:
Houston Rockets guard Fred VanVleet has been elected as the new President of the National Basketball Players Association, succeeding CJ McCollum, sources tell ESPN. VanVleet begins a four-year term as the next NBPA leader. https://t.co/Ghl3kcjg3m

From a guy just hoping to make the Celtics roster to a $40M man. Happy for him, but a big loss for Boston. We’ll miss you, Luke.

Free agent center Luke Kornet has agreed to a four-year, $41 million deal with the San Antonio Spurs, sources tell ESPN. Key frontcourt addition for the Spurs, who negotiated a contract tonight with Kornet's agent Max Wiepking of Gersh Sports.

I’m a little worried this is an over-correction from moving on from Aaron Nesmith too soon. “Crash” Nesmith went from borderline erratic to turning his motor into one of his greatest strengths. Gonzalez has similar gumption but no elite skill to hang his hat on (Nesmith had/has shooting).
