The Daily Friday: Wednesday 10/30

1. Former celebrity Jimmy Fallon is blessed by Rizzler, Big Justice and AJ on his late night show. Fix your attitude, Jimbo. I had no idea who you were until the Costco Guys showed up on your show.

2. We are closing in on the election and things have escalated, as ‘garbage’ becomes the new insult of the week, Rogan runs the world, and Tim Walz is exposed for having a hot Chinese girlfriend in the ‘80s (pretty chill tbh.)

3. Big week for lawsuits as Diddy gets sued in case involving child, Elon $1M giveaway may backfire and Chase take ‘infinite money glitch’ perps to court. Happy to step in if anyone needs representation. I’ve watched 2.5 seasons of Suits and bough an LSAT prep book 8 years ago so I’m very qualified.

4. TGI Fridays closes 50 locations nationwide, as the chain eyes upcoming bankruptcy. RIP to my favorite place to get friend-zoned in high school. Bring back Endless Apps and let’s go out in style.

5. Yankees fans save the team from elimination. LET’S BREAK IT DOWN.

But first: tomorrow is Halloween. Let us know your costume for this year in the survey here (replying to this email with pics is also welcome) and we’ll pick out favorites.

Winner gets some free merch and a shoutout in Friday’s newsletter. That’s pretty sweet.

AYYYY I’M WATCHING HERE!

I haven’t seen a Yankees fan this impactful since the man who invented the hot dog beer straw guy.

Last night, a Yankees fan singlehandedly kept his team alive in the post-season when he ripped a foul ball out of Mookie Betts’ mitt in the first inning of an 11-4 win.

Sure, the hitter was technically ‘out’ but that’s not the point. LET’S BREAK IT DOWN

Baseball has a long history of fan interference and the spectators generally fall into three categories.

1. Helpful: Jeffrey Maier, the kid who won the 1996 ALCS and built Derek Jeter’s entire career.

2. Harmful: Steve Bartman, who nearly destroyed the city of Chicago.

3. Hot: can someone please do a Where Are They Now on the Kissing Bandit? Breath-taking woman.

Last night’s fan certainly fell into category 1, but the larger question is: what exactly is wrong with fan interference?

Look, it’s no secret that fans have always controlled the outcomes of games, whether it’s by berating players 15-20 years younger than them at the stadium or while watching from home (I’ve won several games for my teams by switching chairs at the exact right moment.) Why was last night any different?

Is there any greater home field advantage than having complete scumbag fans who are willing to risk lifetime banishment to save an out? No, no there is no (besides the Intuit Wall.)

WS tickets are expensive. Let fans get their money’s worth by being part of the action. Unless it directly affect the team I root them, in which case I’ll be fucking pissed.

NFL: Jets hold kicker auditions after Greg Zuerlin continues to shit the bed. Just sign Nigel Gruff and call it a day. Not gonna find a better talent out there.

Colts give starting nod to Joe Flacco after benching Anthony Richardson, who’ll finally get all the rest that he needs.

Quick trade updates: Rams pick up WR Dionate Johnson from Carolina while Vikings snag LT Cam Robinson. Expect more movement before the trade deadline on November 5th (love the balls on the NFL scheduling this during election day.)

NBA: Joe Mezulla is truly built different, says he wants to bring back fighting in the middle of games. The man is a demon and I support it.

No one wanted to play defense in Denver last night, as the Nuggets pull out at 144-138 win and Joker puts up a historic 29-18-16 line. Shouldn’t have pissed him off.

NHL: Record watch: Ovi has scored 4 goals already this year, trails Wayne Gretzky’s career mark by just 38. He’s gonna get it done this year, take it to the bank.

THE NO-NONSENSE GROOMING BRAND FOR EVERY MAN

Hey Handsome, Nice Face You Shaved There. 

Has anyone ever said that to you? If not, it’s probably because you haven’t tried out Dollar Shave Club yet. 

Whether you’re going for a clean, close shave or keeping the beard tight, Dollar Shave Club has all the shave and grooming products you need. Always high quality, never over-priced. 

My personal favorite has gotta be the Club Series Diamond Grip Handle. With a diamond patterned grip designed for comfort and control, it’s super clingy in a good way. And once you pair with their Club Series 6 Blade Razor, what’s better than that?

Plus, if you buy today with code DAILYFRIDAY, you’ll get 20% off any purchases $20 or more

WHAT ELSE IS GOOD

Relatable: Tom Brady posts ‘Landslide’ song on his IG story the day Giselle reveals she is pregnant with her jiu-jistu instructor’s child. Sucks that this kid doesn’t get to kiss Brady on the mouth like his other siblings. Tough break.

Dudes rock of the month: autistic man was saved from a deserted island and asked the rescuers to give him a few more weeks because he was enjoying himself so much.

RIP to Crumbs, the World’s Fattest Cat, who escaped from fat camp earlier this year. You’re finally free, sweet prince. May you enter a consumption vortex in cat heaven.

HUMP DAY HIPPO

Today’s entry: Halloween Hippo

This is disgusting. A human has decided to live inside of a hippo? What, do you not have enough human houses to live in, you disgusting beasts? 

I am being told that this is a Halloween costume. Honestly, that is even worse.

If you dress as a hippo this year, I will be forced to ruin you, physically, emotionally and reputationally (sp?) Our culture is not your costume. Show some respect.

RUSTY DATES A GHOST

The moment in this episode where Rusty realizes that the guy wasn’t joking about his wife leaving him has gotta be in my Top 5 How Cool moments of all time. And that’s saying something.

This very appropriately timed episode sees our hero Rusty Featherstone heading to Detroit in hopes that the spirit realm may offer him better romantic prospects than the real human world. Enjoy.

HUMP DAY HERO

STUFF TO CLICK WHEN YOU’RE BORED TODAY

• Guys, look: Tom Cruise fucks fish. Even the Simpson’s knows about it. That doesn’t mean you should kink shame him. Love is love, no matter the species.

• Read this on your lunch break: the Agony and the Ecstasy of the Timothee Chalamet look-alike contest.

• Our absolute boy Strider Wilson just released a special on YouTube and it’s 56 minutes of pure, unadulterated, comedic perfection. Chef’s kiss.

• Extremely impressed with the innovation from the science nerds at Nerds, who’ve introduced the original candy, then ropes and finally found their greatest product: Nerds Clusters, which have turned the company around.
