The Curt Cignetti College Football 27 cover looks like the poster for a 1994 Disney movie in which a recently divorced NFL head coach decides to coach an underachieving high school team of misfits as a way to reconnect with his son who's grown distant after his parents split up.

@tommyreamon I would also add, communicating with parents helps as well.

🚨 DAMN.

Ruby Bridges said the moment she finally understood what was happening during school integration was when a little white boy told her:

“My mom said I can’t play with you because you’re a nigger.”

She was SIX.

And she said hearing that felt like “a huge weight lifted,” because suddenly everything made sense.

Why the classrooms were empty.
Why adults were screaming.
Why U.S. Marshals had to escort her to school.
Not because of anything she did.

Just because of the color of her skin.

A six-year-old child realizing an entire country was angry at her for existing.

Daniel Nwaekwe just leveled all the way up.
This king finished #3 in his class at McKinney High School, dripping in honors (yellow stole, cords, sashes, medals) as he celebrates getting Princeton bound (accepted into THREE Ivies)!!!
He earned AP Scholar with Distinction, National Merit Commended, 17 AP classes, Black Student Union President, Mr. MHS, Distinguished Student Award, and building his own business (Starstruck World LLC) as a producer & audio engineer.
From the nonstop grind to the Ivy League stage… this is Black excellence in full motion.
Let’s gooooo, Daniel! The world is yours, king! 👏🏽🔥

Adam Hoffman raped his son’s best friend for 3 years

First-degree felony. Life without parole.

Ken Paxton’s office gutted it to 60 days. He walked free after 30.

No sex offender registration. His record scrubbed clean.
Texas protects predators with power!

Well said @naomiosaka 🙏🏾💪🏽

[The Tennis Letter @TheTennisLetter]

Naomi Osaka on why she chose to host a party for the black tennis players:

“You know I'm seeing a little bit of-
‘Why can't you love everyone for all skin tones?’ and ‘what if someone had an all white party?! First of all I do love everyone for who they are no matter their race + ethnicity, (I'm literally half Japanese lol). I can only speak from my experiences in my own life though, growing up as a tennis player I didn't see many people that looked like ME and I feel like it's important to celebrate them.

Secondly I feel like it's important to note that there have been all white dinners/parties. I don't know how else to tell you this, I literally seen them all the time and never had an issue with it at all. To the people who ask this question I want to ask you this question too, ‘What is it about POC getting together that unsettles you so much?’

I want to end this by saying I grew up watching my dad get discriminated against, having the cops called on him multiple times at the tennis court. There are multiple things I will apologize for in my life but celebrating being black and appreciating who we are will never be something I would consider saying sorry for. Thanks.

Actually I lied, I am sorry. I'm sorry for the people who cannot comprehend in their brains that this is not about exclusion, this is a celebration about how far we have come 🖤”

COLLEGE GHOST ALERT: Jaylen McClain (Ohio State)
While the entire media was hyping Caleb Downs in 2025… this dude was quietly cooking right next to him.
Same defense. Same opponents.
• 3.1 yards/target (better than Downs’ 4.4)
• Better PFF coverage grade
• 19 years old • 4.35 speed • 6’0” 201 lbs
Now Downs is gone.
McClain steps up as the leader of the secondary with more snaps, more targets, and full freedom to freelance and make plays.
DraftUncut Grade: A- Diamond 💎
Pro Comp: Young Minkah Fitzpatrick
2027 Projection: Top 15 pick (All-Pro upside)
The market is sleeping. Film doesn’t lie.
This is a future star FS.
