Long post incoming, because I think it’s important that someone says this…

I know and love a lot of addicts. I worked in the field at one point and I have family members who are clinicians currently working in addiction treatment.

The weaponizing of Sorsby’s addiction by Texas Tech has been disgusting, and the passage below heavily implies that TTU’s support of his recovery is dependent on him being a football player.

If TTU genuinely cared about Brendan Sorsby’s recovery they wouldn’t have waited until after a judge ruled he could play football to set these support systems up. And that’s before we even address what type of trigger a $5 million check could be for a gambling addict who supposedly gambles due to anxiety and will now feel the pressure of showing he was worth the money and backlash.

If Sorsby’s gambling is truly the manifestation of a generalized anxiety disorder as they have claimed then the least productive thing for his recovery is to turn him into a national story and a focal point for a lot of people who are rightly worried about what this means for the competitive integrity of all college sporting events.

There is a word for swooping in and fixing things for an addict so they don’t have to face the natural consequences of their actions— “ENABLING”

A player being punished for being an addict is not the same thing as him facing the natural consequences of crossing boundaries that he a) knew existed and b) took measures to circumvent.

I believe wholeheartedly in the disease model of addiction, and I have compassion for addicts who are trying to make a healthier lifestyle into a new habit. Texas Tech has created a false dichotomy that paints those supports as being dependent on Brendan’s football eligibility.

Not playing football does not equate to him being expelled from the university. These supports should never have been dependent on his being part of the team.

I don’t believe anybody at Texas Tech is actually making Brendan Sorsby’s addiction recovery the most important thing here. If they were, they never would have put him in this spot. They just want you to back off because they think it will help them win a few more games, and that part of this story feels way grosser to me than anything else.

Catcher in the Rye is a book about a deeply annoying teenager that adults decided was profound because they forgot what teenagers are actually like. Holden Caulfield would be insufferable on social media and we would all mute him immediately.

The largest amphibious invasion in human history began in the dark.

At dawn on June 6, 1944, nearly 7,000 vessels carrying 160,000 Allied troops closed in on the beaches of Normandy.

Through courage and sacrifice, they secured a foothold in Nazi-occupied France and began the liberation of Western Europe.

Today, we honor the heroes of D-Day.

Love it - especially at Riviera. What a badass look.

The whole 82-0 phenomenon reinforces that whole bit about how the only thing a bunch of dudes need in order to have a good time is to sit around announcing the names of a bunch of old athletes.

From the second they’re installed, they’ve always felt worn out to me. They’re definitely popular, but they aren’t for me. I’ve come to really love the Star Classic Wrap and Tour Star 360.

Notably left out the Cam Robinson trade. Everyone seems to forget that one. But these are all good deals.

[ESPN Cleveland @ESPNCleveland]

Andrew Berry's trades since 2025:

Browns get - Jared Verse, Mason Graham, KC Concepcion, Quinshon Judkins, Dylan Sampson, Tyson Campbell, 2027 1st, 2028, 2nd, 2029 3rd

Browns traded - Myles Garrett, Travis Hunter, Greg Newsome

@joycecalhio @Jeremyinakron17 My nephew is pretty big fan of LA’s. I got a Baker Funko Pop at one of the underground stores there when I was out for Browns-Chargers back in the day.

I find this story totally fascinating and I’m a little surprised it hasn’t received more attention.

[Lou Stagner (Golf Stat Pro) @LouStagner]

Does any other sport do this? Genuinely asking.

The NCAA men's division 1 golf championship starts today. They play four rounds of stroke play (Friday - Monday), followed by match play for the top 8 teams.

BYU does not play on Sunday, and they are allowed to play their "3rd" round yesterday... before any other team plays their first round today.

As an FYI, the field has a cut after round 3. Only the top 15 teams advance to the final day of stroke play. So, definitely increased pressure during the third round if you are around the cut line.

Weather/conditions can be variable throughout the day, but weather/conditions days apart can be very different as we all know.

Slightly unpopular opinion. I grew up with Keith and I totally get the love for him - he’s great. But he’s not my pick. I will never tire of “YOU ARE LOOKING LIVE” from Brent. He’s my first pick. Second is Uncle Verne - just an absolute treasure. Also - Nessler is underrated.

Who would you pick if you had to listen to one CFB Play-By-Play Announcer the rest of your life?

[Brad Stulberg @BStulberg]

Y'all—this optimization stuff can make you fragile.

If you are in recovery then yes, of course, a few glasses of wine will mess up your week (or worse). If you get drunk then yes, I could see it messing up a day or two.

But if going out to dinner and having a few glasses of wine throws you for this much of a loop then perhaps you've actually just become fragile?

I mean how would Steven manage having a newborn, or really any age kid? Or just the general uncertainty and messiness of life?

In my new book I tell the story of golfer JJ Spaun, who was up all night with his vomiting toddler. His Whoop sleep score would have been zero. The next morning, he went out and won the U.S. Open.

Actual excellence (not the elaborate, performative internet variety) demands resilience. It controls the controllables, no doubt. But it also ensures you don't optimize yourself into fragility, which is an increasingly common trap and performance killer. https://t.co/DXJIiW7M9z
