When the NFL schedule came out, ABC must have been licking their chops for Dallas at Philly on MNF in week 7. I mean it's not Dolphins-Jets, but it's pretty bad.

Today is World Champagne Day, and we're reminded of this quote from Casino Royale.​ Whilst Bond is famous for his martinis, both he and Ian Fleming were partial to a glass of fizz. 007 actually drinks more Champagne in the books than he does martinis. We’ll raise a glass of ‘cheerful wine’ to that!​ #WorldChampagneDay #JamesBond #IanFleming #CasinoRoyale

It's been a lot of fun trying the Duo out for a week, but it feels like I've gotten to use an extraordinarily polished prototype — not a finished product that I'd want to buy and carry. daringfireball.net/2026/10/t…

Clearly out.
October 17, 1999: In the bottom of the 8th of ALCS game 4, Yankees’ 2B Chuck Knoblauch “tags” Red Sox Jose Offerman as part of an inning-ending double play, preserving a 3-2 lead. Yankees would score 6 in the top of the 9th and win the game 9-2.

There’s a “Why do we need this?” question here and Apple’s video doesn’t answer it. You need to think you want it if you’re going to buy it. And even if you already had a HomeView set up, I’m not sure how often you’d use it instead of your phone, or just talking to it like a screenless HomePod. daringfireball.net/2026/10/h…

John Smoltz talks about the Brewers like they had 84 wins. They had the best record in baseball.

The NFC East winning 0 games on a week in which two teams played each other feels like a pretty good encapsulation of the division at the moment
