    what was the last movie you watched?

    I’m rather certain you mean Night of the Hunter Superb film by the way. Leaning on the Everlasting Arms is a killer motif.

    This Browns game has all the makings of a trap game to me. After the big win over Dallas, Niners hitting the road to Cleveland with the Browns coming off their bye trying to bounce back from an awful loss to their divisional rival. Couple that with rain in the forecast, and it sets up one of...

    He means Mac Jones in SF would be playing like Purdy … when he tore his UCL. If this argument had any merit, Josh Johnson would be the reigning Super Bowl MVP.

    Among everything else, I was happy to see Juice get his first TD of the season. While I know it’s not necessarily his role, I think it’s backbreaking for the Niners to remind teams that, yes, their smashmouth 90s-era FB is capable of dump-off passes for TDs too.

    Thought I might wait to give someone else a chance, but … Simone Arianne Biles is now the most decorated gymnast in history, earning her sixth all-around gold at Worlds today, and 34th total world and Olympic medal. Not even a Soviet tops her name on the list. Meanwhile teammate Shi Jones...

    USA wins an unprecedented 7th team gold in a row at Worlds with Wong stepping in for an injured Roberson putting in a shaky but sufficient performance, and Biles cementing things with an emphatic exclamation point with a 15.165 on floor. (Not to under sell this, but that’s really good) But...

    Personally I loved the vibe of the Nets’ tribute to Jean-Michel Basquiat. Great synergy of community and culture.

    And here we go Roberson instead of Carey (which is the right call) and DiCello as the alternate instead of Chiles. So Chiles can be the leader of the PanAm team (while DiCello pulls double duty on both) Sumanasekera gets bumped up from alternate to the main team with Carey out (she...
