@RyanPaganetti In the moment, I couldn't believe the Giants were running an old-school QB sneak with no tush push. I didn't even realize that Skatt did that. And where was Ricard!?!?! It's not like Jameis is a Brady-level QB sneaker out there.

[Bill Barnwell @billbarnwell]

Giants threw away 11 percentage points of win probability by @ben_bot_baldwin model, missed a chip shot field goal, produced a 13 yard punt trying to protect a lead late, and fumbled away a trip to the red zone. Can't expect to win with that formula.

---> WAS (17) @ NYG (14) <---
NYG has 4th & 3 at the WAS 46, Q4 14:15

Recommendation (CERTAIN): 👉 Go for it (+5.0 WP)
Actual play: 🏈🦵 15-J.Stout punts 46 yards to end zone, Center-58-B.Mann, Touchback.
Go better in 101 of 101 model fits

2026 was the Cracker Barrel Election.

A blue wave swept the country, but precincts with a Cracker Barrel shifted toward Democrats by roughly twice as much as those with a Whole Foods or Starbucks.

Does it feel like America is coming apart today? Americans had real reason to worry in the 1860s, the 1930s, and the 1960s, and each time they saw the country through.

Watch AEI's Yuval Levin explain why we can too.

Hindsight is 20/20: NC Republicans could have easily drawn a 9R-5D or even a 10R-4D map that would have withstood a blue tsunami (by drawing one more safe Dem seat in the Triad). Instead, by trying for a 11R-3D map, they're on track to end up in a 11D-3R hole.

@oliviajune82 @rpondiscio You're hitting on something important here. Because many history professors are now so obsessively focused on race/gender/class to the exclusion of all else, you have a generation of future teachers graduating with weak foundational knowledge of leadership, politics, and war.

ラッシュの復活ツアーでドラムを担当するアニカ・ニルスには、ラッシュのセットリストにぜひとも復活させたい曲が一つあるという。それは40年以上もライヴで演奏されていない曲。「グルーヴも、盛り上がっていく展開も、すべてが大好き」。メンバーにも提案したという　https://t.co/PY5NE23fgh

After church today, discussing Trump and last week's dismal election today with a conservative friend, he sighed, "I hate to agree with David French on anything, but I guess there's just no getting away from 'character is destiny'. Eventually, it proves out."

1/ I'll explain exactly how this happened because I'm the person at Forbes who calculates these numbers.

This is going to take some unraveling, but here's a spoiler: The president's answer here is nonsense.

@rpondiscio Seriously, sometimes I see posts like that and I can't believe there are people who sincerely believe that pablum.

@NYGDaily Sticking with... Good word choice there

[Histgovguy @histgovguy]

@vesperlynd42 @karenvaites AP has plenty of issues, but at least it makes students take a damn test. And now College Board is trying to lean into PBL, which would negate their only reason for being 🤦

[Histgovguy @histgovguy]

@vesperlynd42 @karenvaites Most of the NAIS parents want an education that a) feels good for their kids (lots of attention) and b) produces the best college admissions outcomes. That's why many lean into "experiential ed", ie cool trips which are also are awesome marketing. Academic rigor is incidental.

[Histgovguy @histgovguy]

@rpondiscio How many times I heard from other history teachers, "It's not about WHAT they study it's about the skills" 🤮
