39 years old. Never officially had a college football team. Grew up picking UCLA on NCAA Football during the Bob Toledo era. 🎮 Finally decided to ride with the Bruins this season. NOW WE’RE 9-0?! 😭🔥 LFG!!!
Is 38 too late to become a college football fan? 😂 I have ZERO ties to any college. My only connection is playing NCAA Football 🎮 as a kid and always choosing UCLA. Fuck it. Let’s go Bruins.

53 POINTS. ANOTHER LAKERS WIN. 🟣🟡 Luka Dončić’s MVP campaign is getting LOUD. Every night feels like another statement. If you’ve got someone ahead of him right now, who and why? 👀 LFG. #LakeShow

LeBron returned to Cleveland. The Cavs sent 76ers home with a 119–95 loss. The Sixers are now 8–2: 2–0 vs. Knicks 1–1 vs. Cavs 1–1 vs. Pistons Wins over Milwaukee, Indiana, Charlotte & Chicago. Superteam or still a work in progress? Is Philly the team to beat in the East?

We grew up watching Arthur. Now we understand him. I imagined a @PBS × @A24 collection for everyone who became the fist meme. A stress toy. A bookend. One festive grievance. Which one would you buy? ✊

YOU’RE THE Ravens GM! Lamar Jackson (No trade Clause) is headed to IR. Baltimore needs a QB. Who are you calling? Joe Flacco Homecoming? Shedeur Sanders QB1 ready? Justin Herbert Blockbuster trade? Someone else? Who’s your pick?

Lamar Jackson headed to IR. Tyler Huntley injured too. Shedeur Sanders is sitting on the bench in Cleveland. 👀 Could the Ravens make a bold move and trade for Shedeur? Thoughts?
#Ravens QB Lamar Jackson will have surgery on his thumb and will go on Injured Reserve, per coach Jesse Minter. “We’ll see” if it’s season ending.

Someone has to say it. Alex Call accidentally kicks Shohei Ohtani in the elbow. Ohtani hasn’t looked the same since. The struggles continue but all I keep thinking is… Was this the moment that changed everything? Dodgers in 6 LFG!!!

Coach B gets the game ball today. Congrats on the win Coach.

Vrabel make the call. Titans are 0-4. The Patriots need someone who can wreck the pocket. Jeffery Simmons to New England. If the Titans are willing to sell go get him. We just beat Buffalo. This team has a chance. LFG!!!

I’m not panicking over the Patriots being 1-2. We started 1-2 last year and ended up in the Super Bowl. Last year NE beat the teams they should beat and stayed competitive with good teams.

Drake Maye HAS to protect the football blood on the ball is an excuse. His decision making and confidence looks off. The offense has lacked creativity. And the pass rush simply isn’t good enough. Injuries explain some of it. They don’t explain all of it.

If Tennessee is willing to listen, I’m calling about Jeffery Simmons TODAY. New England needs somebody who can wreck a pocket. I’m not hitting the panic button at 1-2. But after getting punched in the mouth like that, Vrabel needs to respond. We’re on to Buffalo LFG!!!
