Covering politics, culture, media, and sports @OutKick/Fox News.

[Bobby Burack @BobbyBurack]

The greatest honor of my professional life came in 2020 when Clay called me and asked me to join his revamped OutKick.

We had a three-year plan. Yet here we are six and half years later.

As I told him privately, I can never thank Clay enough for taking a chance on me, giving me the freedom to find my voice, and letting me cover whatever I wanted, from two presidential elections to sports, from culture to Game of Thrones, and everything in between.

Clay is the most supportive person I have ever worked for or with. No one has helped me, or advocated for me more.

As someone who knows most of the biggest hitters in both sports and political media, he might just be the best person of them all. He is that good of a dude.

OutKick is now fully integrated into Fox News, the most dominant media company in America. That's a credit to Clay and what he built from scratch.

I'm going to miss working with him on a daily basis. I hate that part of it. Bit I know his new company is going to be another juggernaut. I can tell you firsthand that all of his new employees will soon be very, very fortunate.

As for me, you can find my stories now on both OutKick and Fox News. I also have some fun things in the works that I will announce soon.

For now, congratulations, Clay. And no, there is nothing wrong with men from the Midwest getting fake tans.

15 years ago I launched @outkick. May 2026 was our biggest month ever, 21 million uniques. Today I’m leaving. Awesome ride. Thanks to all. Final show this afternoon. I’ll be continuing with @clayandbuck, @FoxNews & @FOXSports. Details on new company soon: https://t.co/fcqY220sBj

I’ll have a column for @OutKick/@FoxNews on the Dianna Russini drama in the morning.

I think everyone is missing the key point — including her.

Caleb Williams is putting on a show. This guy is incredible at playing football.

My weekly tweet: The Chicago Bears will win the Super Bowl. Caleb Williams will be the face of the NFL:

[Bobby Burack @BobbyBurack]

Caleb Williams looks like the next face of the NFL. He's incredible.

But does celebrating the Dems winning the midterms, supporting BLM, tweeting about #whiteprivilege, and ignoring the US national anthem make him a bad candidate?

Hmm, Mahomes is the oldest of the group and hasn’t been as mobile this year, coming off the injury (or maybe he doesn’t need to run as much because of Walker; hard to say why).

But I agree that he’s overcoming more, so it’s hard to compare. Mahomes on this Bears team is a different story.

I tend to think Williams will have the most success of this group over the next decade given age + coach + team.

Then again, Mahomes and Burrow are the only ones of the group who have shown they can win big games.

[Bobby Burack @BobbyBurack]

Question: If you had to start an NFL franchise today, who would you take at QB?

Josh Allen (age 30), Jordan Love (28), Caleb Williams (24), Joe Burrow (29), Patrick Mahomes (31), Trevor Lawrence (27)?

Prayers up for Dave Ramsey. Good guy who didn’t deserve this.

@chiefs_outsider Don't worry. Josh Simmons will be eligible to come off IR soon and be back to day-to-day.

[Chris @chiefs_outsider]

Send your first round pick to go get an OT. Tell Josh Simmons to stop being a pussy or cut him. Get serious about shit and stop letting this happen.

[Show Me Football @ShowMeFB]

Hope Josh simmons feels good sitting his ass at home because his back is sore while his QB gets thumped to hell trying to carry this sorry ass football team

[Bobby Burack @BobbyBurack]

Hi, @CJScoobs. Remember when you said that Josh Simmons skipping football games wasn't a big deal and that I should stop covering it?

Moore wouldn't be on the field (Benson would be in at RT) if Simmons decided to play football.

Here's my response to Ryan Clark accusing ESPN of leaking to me his firing for the 12th time.

This time, he claims ESPN profiled Sophie Cunningham about trans athletes to show @OutKick it's no longer woke.

These people are gross. They first blame Caitlin Clark's popularity on "pretty privilege" and then say she isn't pretty.

A more honest response: "We are bothered that a white girl is better at basketball and more popular than us, so we are going to act like brats."

[Kyle Ingram @SnapshotKyle]

Angel McCoughtry believes beauty can play a big part in your success in the WNBA:

“I went to a conference. Everybody loved Indiana, they love Caitlin Clark. I said ‘How many of you know Kelsey Mitchell?’ none of them raised their hand. She’s the best player on that team…”

It's time for @Realrclark25 to move on. He's been crying about his firing and falsely claiming that ESPN leaked the story to OutKick and me for three months.

I've addressed it several times: ESPN didn't leak anything to us. If it did, it wouldn't have rushed to tell Clark in the middle of the show to avoid him finding out on the internet.

We also had four sources between Dan and me.

ESPN fired Ryan Clark because he was a bad teammate, made reckless comments about race, shamed RGIII for marrying a white woman, tried to fight Peter Scrhager off air, made defamatory remarks about Louisiana police, said weird things about Josh Allen, and kept bringing up non-sports topics on air.

Put simply, he was a constant headache and the numbers showed he did not drive viewers. He was far more trouble than he was worth.

I think there must be a significant amount of lost written material about Jesus’ life that predates the canonical Gospels.

Mark is generally dated around the time of the Temple’s destruction in 70. I think Mark 13 supports that dating.

This means Mark was written roughly two decades after Paul’s letters, which contain almost nothing about Jesus’ life.

By the time Mark was written, Christian communities had been expanding for years. It is difficult to imagine that they relied entirely on oral tradition.

The early churches must have had some written materials about Jesus’ life.

Further, the author of Luke begins by saying that “many” people had tried telling accurate accounts about Jesus before him. The author was familiar with Mark, but Mark is not “many.”

Some scholars also argue that Mark had access to an earlier written Passion narrative. I find this compelling.

For one, the style and pacing of Mark’s Gospel appear to change around Jesus’ final days and crucifixion.
The Passion sequence reads as more continuous and developed than many of the loosely connected passages before it in Mark.

At the very least, I think there were written collections of Jesus’ sayings (like Q) that existed before the destruction of the Temple, thus before Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John.

In fact, I would not be surprised if there were Gospels (maybe shorter ones) written before Mark that were lost.
