My pinned tweet for the past three years or so was a paused countdown of the number of new moons to the next total solar eclipse. We're getting there! It's about time for the #GreatNorthAmericanEclipse on April 8! #solareclipse Photo: Mine from 2017, Russellville, KY.

He’s back: The Bears are planning to start Caleb Williams after he missed the past three games due to a torn hamstring but went through a full week of practice this week without any setbacks, per NFLN and ESPN.

He’s back: The #Bears are planning to start QB Caleb Williams on Sunday, sources tell NFL Network and ESPN. After a full week of practice, Williams was listed as questionable. But he took the starter reps and is ready to roll.

NEW: The Vatican released the first pictures of Pope Leo XIV since he underwent surgery following a lung cancer diagnosis, showing him celebrating mass with medical staff in the clinic where he is being treated.

That loud scream you heard was probably just @RantyAmyCurtis going bananas over the Brewers winning the NL pennant.

Coffee experiment this morning: brewed a light roast Pink Bourbon from a local roaster. Two separate brews in a V60 pourover, freshly ground and brewed "my way" and "their way". I guess the local coffee roaster knows what they're doing... "their way" was a better!

The play ended in the end zone? You can muff the ball into the end zone and get a touchback? I'm a Bears fan, and that's just a stupid rule.

This app keeps trying to get me to use the "For You" tab.

The No Fun League has made some stupid decisions regarding celebrations lately. Looks like they're backing away from total dumbassery, at least. H/T @RapSheet
Essentially, the first move will now be a call — not a fine. The players have appealed all 20 of the fines going through the appeal process. Some have already been overturned, as the NFL and NFLPA have worked together to fix this issue.

About the roof at AFF: At least the ground rules are clear, with the only judgment being whether the ball was fair or foul. That said, that particular ground rule is dumb af. I can understand why Padres fans are pissed. Should just be a dead ball.

At this point I just want a Cub to get a hit so I can go to sleep without feeling guilty over not watching the rest of the game. I can't turn off a no-hit bid this late, even if it is for the bad guys. If I miss a great comeback win, well that's what the DVR is for. #Cubs

Awesome, I didn't think the jinx worked that way, but I'll take it!

Just when you think you have a handle on the AFL rules, they throw a "not 15, play on" at you in the Grand Final. Ok, that's a new one for me.

Does anybody check the Scheduling Assistant when creating a meeting in Outlook, or do people just figure they are more important than whatever else is already blocking the time they want on schedule? Trying to decide if it's ignorance or narcissism. Might be both.

Somebody tell Al Michaels that a 21 point lead means 3 TD w/ PAT kicks only tie the game. Sure, the odds GB does that anyway are super long, but this is football. Strange things can happen.

Sigh... #Bears
#Bears QB Tyson Bagent is dealing with a concussion and is in the NFL’s concussion protocol, sources say. With Caleb Williams likely out with a hamstring injury, Case Keenum could be the starter vs the #Eagles.

Mahomes has a magnesium knee brace? Stay away from open flames, Patrick!! #ChiefsKingdom

Ahoy, mateys!! Today it is perfectly acceptable to wear an eye patch and speak in a gravelly voice to embarrass your family and friends. Happy International Talk Like a Pirate Day!

The @NWSChicago radar is clear, the status page doesn't list any outages, yet it's raining in McHenry County. Blah, I need to mow the lawn now before the weekend deluge hits.
