Anyone else spend a good chunk of their Saturday evening watching donkey videos on TikTok? Or is it just me?

Feeling crestfallen for Illinois State. What a gut punch of an ending.

Happy #TecmoSuperBowl day! The #NES classic turns 34 years old today! #TecmoBowl was a great game, but the sequel blew our minds with all 28 NFL teams, stat tracking, full schedule, expanded rosters & more. It's hard to explain how ground-breaking this title was back in 1991.

Took the young ones to Six Flags two days ago. It still feels like I played a game of football. So it goes.
