“Stick is candy!”

Jim Spanfeller looks like a guy who gives his niece lingerie for her birthday.

Seriously! But ALSO it’s the fucking day before Halloween: Reese’s Pumpkins, which are objectively the best Reese’s possible due to size, surface area, etc.

There is way too much sports talk diluting this website’s content. Please stick to dogs.

Waited until the final second, then nailed the 55 yarder. Well played.

A question for the Funbag: why should I keep reading anything on this website after Jim Spanfeller and Paul Maidment went to the lengths of firing Barry, like cowards, for the dumbest of reasons?

I want to support the writers here—this is both the best website that exists, and has ever existed, and the best sports…

Can you let me know when you will be returning to sports coverage so I can go back to checking in once or twice per day?

i’m going to paraphrase what I usually say about cities and racism:

So it’s Quebec, just with extra steps. 

Never forget that Brian Kelly made a kid stay in a scissor lift in 50+ mph winds because it was more important that the team practice outside than nobody die. Fuck him, and fuck Notre Dame for not firing that asshole for cause immediately.
