Not bowled over.

November 10, 2026

The NCAA and ESPN announced that starting in 2027-2028 there will be 24 (!) teams in the College Football Playoffs.

So will half of them be required to be from the SEC?

–

Although, leaving aside the fact that there aren’t really 24 teams in any given year capable of winning the National Championship that’s FIVE rounds. Five extra potential weeks on top of a 14-15 week season. That’s a lot of wear and tear on college athletes… and a lot of potential time away from class. (Oh, who am I kidding… class?:)

Thomas Massie, “I hope Hegseth addresses the 8 articles of impeachment, and doesn‘t get up and misquote the Bible in Quentin Tarantino fashion and do some pull-ups and call everybody fat and gay. I may have just given you half his speech, I don’t know.”

–

Did someone leak Massie an advance copy of Hegseth’s speech?

“To illustrate just how much power Texas has in a presidential election:

If Democrats win Texas, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, they can give up every other state that has voted for Republicans in a presidential election in the 21st century and still win the White House.”

So last week Trump said he’d accept the election results. Now he’s ranting again, despite all the efforts GOP put in to suppress the vote, that it was rigged…

Did he forget what he said 5 days ago, did Natalie print some articles to wind him up, or did the meds wear off?

–

Trump just told Americans struggling to pay for gasoline, groceries and rent to “buy more stocks.”

He’d have probably told them to eat cake but his administration wouldn’t let anyone using SNAP or other benefits buy sweets.

WTAF? Jake Tapper is releasing a new paperback version of “Original Sin.”

1. Who else will never buy it? 2. Why isn’t Jake writing the more relevant book, about the man reduced to bragging about repeat dementia/cognitive tests?

Can we enjoy 2026 – and focus on having our Democratic Congress sworn in and getting to work -before we start seriously thinking about 2028?
