I literally live and die by BC Football but god damn BC Basketball Twitter is better. Bunch of sickos watching a team that had 8 players transfer out and isn’t playing one of their best recruits sweating scheme for a Tuesday game against Dartmouth.

We are fucking cursed.
Sources: Boston College football GM Kenyatta Watson is no longer with the school after a “mutual decision” to part. He’d been the GM there since December of 2025.

I didn’t think that AI could make people stupider. Yet, here we are.

1. There are a trillion ways around this being an issue with even a modicum of effort. 2. LeBron should legitimately not take a helicopter.
Pablo Torre says NBA owners have contacted him about LeBron James flying in a Fanatics helicopter and he is "looking into" it.

Very interested to see how closely Guilfoyle follows the Tom Wambsgans arc she appears clearly set on. We’re somewhere between end of S2 and beginning of S3.
GUILFOYLE ASKED TO RESIGN: Trump appointee Kimberly Guilfoyle, the U.S. ambassador to Greece, has been asked to resign from her post after coming under severe criticism over allegations she has engaged in improper and possibly illegal conduct before and during her tenure in Athens.

Never thought we’d be getting the Browns Cinematic Universe.
Welcome to THE LAND. Premiering February 15 on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+. A new scripted drama series. Set within the world of the Cleveland Browns, Christopher Meloni, Mandy Moore, Chace Crawford and William H. Macy bring you the drama of the NFL like you’ve never seen it before.

There is a world where this team wins 50 games this year. I think they win, like, 34, but there is clearly a math game they are playing in the aggregate without a ball-dominant player. (Still wouldn’t have done the LaMelo deal).
Moussa Diabaté strips Myles Turner and Liam McNeeley throws the two-handed dunk (with replays) WHATTTTT

This is starting to piss me off.
Goldman Sachs reports 36% of people earning over $500k are living paycheck to paycheck.

So dumb, data literacy is dying: “About 41% of households earning $300,000 to $500,000 reported living paycheck to paycheck, and the rate was 40% for those earning above $500,000, compared with just 16% for households earning $200,000 to $300,000, the lowest rate of any group.”
Findings like this are stupid because around $250k HHI people begin to realize that you should be living paycheck to paycheck.

Since moving to Charlotte my boot preferences have completely changed. Weather is too good (“lobster too buttery”) to require a robust boot game. Duck/Cowboy/Dean I’ve got an old pair of leather chukkas I throw on in winter and end up hating every time they’re on.
Send me to fashion jail. Pulled every pair of boots out of my closet... and realized that I hate boots. Still, y'all deserve good content. So I ranked 'em and provided commentary. Four made the rotation. Three are heading to eBay. Pictured in order, left to right. MADE THE CUT / FRONT ROW 1. Lucchese Cowboy Boots No explanation needed. Goatskin boots from the GOAT. 2. John Lobb Alder Suede Boots Beautiful boots. Incredible construction. Too substantial for everyday wear. 3. Massimo Dutti Soft Leather Ankle Boots Brand new, but passed the first impression. Will report back. 4. Koio Brixen Hiking Boots Perfect for snow days. Unwearable any other time. I am out on this trend. NOT IN ROTATION / BACK ROW 5. Edward Green Shanklin Are these dress or casual boots? Somehow does neither well. I'm still out on chukkas, but if you're embracing the resurgence then I'd go more casual. 6. Crockett & Jones Chelsea VIII If I were buying Chelseas today, I'd go dark brown or black leather with a higher shaft. 7. Crockett & Jones Hayle Camel suede looks good with nothing. Unwearable.

This clip should go triple platinum. Incredible work.
Shannon Sharpe and Ochocinco looked up Madison Beer while discussing Justin Herbert’s POOR performances this season, leading to the Chargers being 0-5, and instantly understood why he might be DISTRACTED 😭💀 “Let me see what she looks like… OH SH-T. I don’t put too much cream in my coffee, but I get it.” 😭😭

This and Maniac McGee go bonkers.
this book hit young men so hard because you’re in middle school being forced to read the absolute worst most torturous irrelevant things imaginable for multiple years and then out of nowhere they hit you with 200 pages of “kid has to survive in the woods with an axe”

Mike I think you’re having a nervous episode here (or this is all a bit) because you just fell hook line and sinker for this bait. BOB has never coached on a team that won a SB or NC.
Exactly my point (but you made it better)

Usually requires one of two things: 1. A win necessitating a whole new banner format. 2. A decision to completely redesign/reformat all of the banners. I think my buddy got his from either the beanpot win in 2014 or a banner redesign in 2016. Live bidding.
.@BCBlakeJames how can I buy the old BC banners

One of the most bewildering seasons of any team I’ve followed. 19 points is all it would take to flip 5 games and make this squad 8-4 with a ranked win over ND at Fenway Park.
Happy bye week BC, and happy 11-year anniversary to the worst football game I’ve ever attended. October 10, 2015. BC loses 3-0 to Wake Forest. 3 missed FGs, 18 punts, 5 fumbles, 2 INTs, and 1 Steve Addazio clock mismanagement masterclass to end the game.

I honestly don’t think I’ll be able to handle this.
There's only been two preseason games so far... But do we think the LaMelo Ball trade was worth it from the games we've seen? 👀

I’m sorry “fresh peanut butter machine”?
Everyone wants to tell me how great their office pantry is but after the Bloomberg pantry nothing can surprise me. The Bloomberg pantry is the size of a small regional airport. The Bloomberg pantry has a fresh peanut butter machine and matcha on tap. The Bloomberg pantry makes the Thrive Capital pantry look positively soviet. Its memory will drive you to tears whenever you visit another newsroom

You’re on the Similac diet if you think 401ks are a scam. They’re a tool. If there is a company match it’s probably the SECOND most useful financial tool available to the masses, second only to the 30-year fixed mortgage.
When yall say 401k is a scam I just look the other way because I remember a few years ago a person at my job who just recently retired showed me he had 800k in there off of 20 years of work. So I just sit that one out 😭
