This is the most insane thing I’ve ever seen. The fact that people do this race willingly is nuts.
Here is a video of taco bell 50k ultra marathon in Denver Colorado. They had to run to 10 different taco bells and had to eat a menu item at 9/10 taco bells. They have 11 hours to finish the race. 📹: road_to_leadville on IG #food #Marathon #funny #Colorado

This man must be protected at all costs
For more than six decades, 103-year-old Irvin Koch has been pouring drinks for customers out of the basement of his home in Maryland. His dive bar, legally zoned for commercial use, is a time capsule tucked away from the rest of the world above. wapo.st/4y7FQap

John Urschel just showed that the growth factor for Gaussian elimination with partial pivoting is ~n^{1/2} with high probability, resolving a long-standing conjecture of Nick Trefethen! arxiv.org/abs/2610.06785

Somewhere, someone was in a hurry and accidentally started Brian Robinson in fantasy over Bijan Robinson and they just experienced the craziest roller coaster of emotions tonight

Bowling alleys locally charge $30/hr. 10 years ago, it cost me $2/game. This is why so many people are beaten down. Real estate costs have driven out an entire lifestyle in this country
The guy who saved the bowling business did it by kicking out the bowlers. The ones who showed up every week, paid their dues, and kept the lights on for decades got shown the door on purpose. His name is Tom Shannon. In 1997 he bought a failing Manhattan alley and looked at his league bowlers the way no operator had before, as the problem. They locked up the prime evening lanes at discounted rates, 30-plus weeks a year, and nursed cheap pitchers all night. He handed those lanes to birthday parties and corporate events instead, people who paid full price for the same two hours and ordered cocktails. That one alley became Bowlero. The playbook rolled up AMF, Brunswick's bowling centers, and Lucky Strike, and the company now runs about 350 centers doing $1.2 billion a year, the largest bowling business ever built. Meanwhile the sport itself kept shrinking. America had roughly 12,000 bowling alleys in the mid-1960s and fewer than 4,000 remain. League membership went from nearly 10 million in the late 1970s to about 1 million today, an 89% collapse. Robert Putnam made league bowling the symbol of America's civic breakdown in Bowling Alone. The industry read the same decline and found a margin strategy inside it. A regular is a discount. A stranger pays rack rate. Once operators ran that math, the weekly customer was never coming back, because nobody was trying to win him back. So when economists describe the alone economy as Americans choosing the couch over third places, the bowling ledger adds the uncomfortable half. The third places did their own choosing. Belonging was the cheapest ticket in the building, and the building stopped selling it.

Sorry San Diego. That one is a tough loss

So, does anyone have the exit velocity and angle of that smash by San Diego? I want to see how far it would have been hit if it wasn’t for the roof Nothing like a 500’ out

Just coming back to this. Maybe it’s time decision makers should stop listening to the big money faction

Big money didn’t want Chesney. Pat doesn’t get the final say

I was way off. We had 48 yards rushing.
Replying to @BasicBluesPod
It’s going to be bad. That northwestern team is not playing ball. Total rushing yards under 30 for us. No defensive pressure on NW. I honestly don’t know how we win

The lights were flashing red last week
Replying to @joesmeltzer775
Why are we even talking about this? Unless Aiden Chiles has a massive reversion or is hurt, Northwestern is running this team out of the building. They took Indiana to the wire in Bloomington

What’s scary to me about this Penn State roster is I don’t see more than 6 or 7 players who are truly Big Ten caliber players that deserve to stay here If Campbell wants to get where he’s supposed to get this team to, he’s going to have to fully turn over the roster again

Remember when Pat Kraft basically said he couldn’t hire Terry because the boosters wouldn’t get behind him and he’d be on the street in 2 years? How’s that working?

Quick reminder that Bob Chesney is from PA. Pat Kraft chose Matt Campbell and even Sitake instead. I have very few words

My scouting report last year. Hasn’t changed my mind yet 🙄
Replying to @B1OBEY0ND
Unless Becht gets much better under pressure, I don’t want him. Makes good throws when the pocket is clean. When under pressure, he folds like a table in a Bills tailgate

D’Anton Lynn can go back to USC. Campbell and the entire roster can go back to Iowa. This is embarrassing.

Holy smokes
It was a seemingly innocuous email, sent on a Wednesday morning in January 2017, that started everything. Arriving in the inbox of a senior official at Manchester City, it appeared to have been sent by an employee from European football’s governing body, UEFA, and contained a link to a financial compliance report. The City official clicked the download button. That was all it took. It was not a genuine email from UEFA but a successful phishing attempt by Portuguese hacker and activist Rui Pinto. City’s servers were breached, allowing Pinto to retrieve thousands of emails and documents from the club’s systems. This week, almost 10 years on from Pinto’s first email, the Premier League announced that an independent panel had found City guilty of all but one of the charges against them, as The Athletic first revealed last Friday. 📝 @jwhitey98: nyti.ms/4z5sgoL
