@gabe03506597 @PattonAnalytics @FTNData Where a player falls left to right is partially a product of playing time. That's why Burrow is further right than O'Connell despite a lower miss %.

"44-0"

The #Bears run their record to 11-0 by handing the #Cowboys their worst loss in franchise history — 44-0 at Texas Stadium.

The win clinches the NFC Central crown — #Chicago's first division title in 22 years. It also is the first time that Mike Ditka defeats his mentor Tom Landry in a head-to-head coaching matchup.

The Bears "46" defense completely dominates the contest — two defensive touchdowns, six sacks (and numerous hurries), five takeaways, and a mere 171 yards allowed.

It is the first time Dallas is held scoreless since 1970, and only the second time ever.

Your honor, if not for shenanigans I'd have merely lost by 40 points rather than 60.

Republican states attorney candidate Bob Fioretti says he’s seen election and voting shenanigans. Might he challenge the results if he loses? “Absolutely.”

25 years since we lost Sweetness, but his legacy lives on.

I defer to experts regarding the degree to which this is true, but reading this made me remember this section of Alexis de Tocqueville's famous "Democracy in America," in which he writes a whole chapter warning industry could produce a new aristocracy within democracy.

8 years ago today, the Cubs beat the Dodgers in Game 6 of the 2016 NLCS to win the National League pennant and advance to their first World Series since 1945! 🐻

@AmericasFriend1 So there's this baseball player Jorge Soler. Power hitter, he swings a big bat, that's what the people who've seen him in the shower say. Jorge Soler. Soler power. The birds can't see it and fly directly into it and die. That's why we're going to drill the wind.

@egavactip They also seem to not understand how the line of succession works. Speaker becomes president if the offices of the president and vice president are both vacant. Speaker does not become VP of VP office is vacant.

Jackson Chourio of the @Brewers is the second player in MLB history to hit 2 game-tying homers in a postseason game.

The other was Babe Ruth in Game 4 of the 1928 World Series.
