Japan is genuinely one of the best potential NFL markets.
Football is reasonably popular in Japan and has been played for nearly 100 years. There are at least 400 teams between high-school, college, and professional levels. And American culture is broadly seen as cool.
Roger Goodell expects an NFL game in Tokyo in 2027 or 2028. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal…
The NFL has been chasing “sexy” markets like the UK or Mexico but realistically Germany and Japan have the best-developed local environments and the broadest interest from the public for the sport.

…so what exactly is the appeal of the next gen supposed to be when:
1) The current gen barely has any games
2) You won’t own anything you buy
3) It costs a mortgage payment

This could have substantial ramifications.
Based off primary votes, Scott Brown in 2010 would not have made the top four.

New York Times says that Nintendo is weak for making Super Mario 64 and that they are squandering the power of the Nintendo 64 by making something so lame like a Mario platformer.

Big deal for this and future admins. Voters demonstrably appear to hate inflation more than basically anything.
The latest inflation data is expected to show price increases are accelerating cnbc.com/2026/10/13/septembe…
Only one stop-motion film in history - Chicken Run - has grossed even $200 million worldwide.
Unfortunately it’s just very hard to get people to go watch stop-motion films.

Fans also incorrectly attributed Kylo Ren’s “last the past die” line to Rian Johnson.
Ren is the villain of the movie! He’s also wrong and is depicted as having crossed a moral event horizon by the end.
Delmarva would lowkey be a fairly competitive swing state.

Disney had a Star Wars movie with a 91% critic and “A” CinemaScore that was the highest-grossing film of the year and had a lower 1st to 2nd entry drop than ESB or AoTC.
They got so freaked out by online comments that they pivoted the next entry to be safer and respond/retcon most major complaints.

Maine's Senate race is a pure Toss Up.
In the DDHQ Forecast, Republican Susan Collins and Democrat Troy Jackson both have a 50% win probability.
This must-win seat for both parties is the closest Senate race in our forecast.
Pretty much all of the things people dislike about TRoS are direct responses to online fan criticism about TLJ.
And a lot of the sequel stuff people complain about broadly (like the lack of politics) are direct responses to the most pervasive pre-2015 Star Wars fandom complaints about the prequels.
George Lucas infamously did not care about any fan criticisms and generally did whatever he wanted, also to broadly mixed results in his later years managing the franchise. People who ended up liking the prequels eventually won out. So maybe it ultimately doesn't matter.
