Lakers are sold for $12B to former Disney head Bob Iger and Josh Kushner, the brother of Jared who tried to purchase FIFA last month. Please keep Bronny around, Mr. Iger and Kushner. We need to see him play his dad on Christmas Day. That’s the greatest gift you could give all of us.
Minnesota GOP primary won by Michelle Tafoya, as the ex-NFL reporter defeats former NBA player and current loser Royce White who has made headlines for stuff like this and this. Imagine telling this to someone in 2015.
Solar eclipse is happening today in Europe, with Spain receiving the greatest visibility worldwide. Is this a perk from winning the World Cup? We should’ve tried harder so we’re not stuck with these views. At least we got a meteor shower tonight. If you’re not staying up to watch, you don’t know sky, bro.
Kyler Murray named Vikings starting QB, beats out JJ McCarthy. Guy who calls himself “9” lost his job to someone a legally blind person would think is 9 years old. Add this to the list of blows to the Michigan mystique this week.
Tupac murder trial begins this week, as “Keffe D” is accused of orchestrating his killing nearly 30 years after the fact, with his memoir “Compton Street Legend” (total OJ move) and the Netflix doc serving as evidence (this is a must watch if you haven’t seen it.) 50 Cent is a hero.
WHAT ELSE IS GOOD
Many of us in the blob jump community didn’t think it was possible, but this weekend the record for highest blob jump mark, was shattered by Robin Steiner. The blob jump community will never be the same. This should stand for a longggg time.
Does this require actual skill? Genuinely curious. I feel like the dude who jumped ONTO the blob would receive the majority of the credit, right?
Can’t think of a better use of $20k for any parent than decorating your daughter’s freshman year dorm room, complete with a photo of the designer’s younger son. The SEC is a beautiful world that I will never understand. And that’s the mystery of life.
In a previous life, I would’ve loved to be invited here for a pregame. Ideal setting to house 3 40s, fall asleep in her bed with my shoes on, piss myself and scream out with night terrors while the rest of the 8 person pregame watched on in horror and failed to wake me up.
Ozempic claims another victim and it’s Chris Berman’s entire ass. Never seen a body like that or a man move in that manner. He’s a pioneer in the truest sense. Respect.
Sorry but this is the peak male physique. The mainstream media won’t admit this, but it’s true
I miss the days when Little League World Series teams got disqualified for having players who were actually 14. Now we have parents claiming their kid’s siblings had special needs and manipulating league scores in Tulsa. What the hell is going on?
Justice for Danny Almonte
What a beautiful world we live in. Every day you can see something new, like a man playing the national anthem on a Weber Grill at a Brewers game. Dudes rock.
This is as America as it gets. Fuck yeah
Who is Today's Hump Day Hero?
LET YOUR STICK DO THE TALKING
It’s back to school time for the good boys and girls across the country and also, thanks to Dr. Squatch, newsletter writers in their 30s like myself. LFG.
Dr. Squatch’s new head professor Megan Fox is running The F.O.X. (Foundation for Odor Excellence) and class is finally in session. The lesson? Real men pay attention to their deodorant.
As a big time sweater, there’s nothing that can compete with the Invisible Glide deodorant. Natural, aluminum-free, 72-hour odor protection that goes on invisible (no more leaving white marks behind on clothes.)
Plus - it’s Megan Fox. If she says to do something, are you really not gonna listen?
HUMP DAY HIPPO STORAGE ITEM
this is how I learned C$ is short for Canadian dollars. It’s so important to expand your horizons each and every day.
Hippopotoman was right there guys. One of the biggest missed opportunities in copywriting history. Let’s regroup and come back stronger next time.
Also, I gotta ask: what’s with the holes in the nostril? Are we supposed to put our feet in there? Use it as a hand warmer? Perhaps some additional storage for odds and ends around the domecile? I appreciate the dedication to recreating an anatomically correct hippo, but let’s only do that if there is a functional use. Capesh?
STUFF TO CLICK WHEN YOU’RE BORED TODAY
An excellent golf war was waged over on Hit Different Golf this week. They’ve been crushing these videos lately. Perfect to have on your desk this afternoon while you mindlessly grind through a shift at the Powerpoint factory.
Read this on your lunch break: 16 hours in an Oakland dive bar.
Thank you to this LA local who did the important work of supporting the strong guys at Muscle Beach (in an extremely nonsexual way.)
With the release of the Anthony Bourdain biopic Tony fast approaching, it’s a good time to bring back this deep dive from the Ringer. They don’t miss.
How to raise rent as an ethical landlord is an all-timer. From the man who brought you my weekend as a 28 year old in Chicago Illinois, too. Elite poster.
Perez Hilton and our live-streaming nightmare is a great read on one of the more fucked up stories of the past few years. Break the paywall here.
This is the most ideal meeting the parents situation ever. Dan should make weekly episodes where he finds himself in situations like this, do it for a decade and call it Curb Your Enthusiasm or something. Just a pitch.
If AI takes the jobs of young people, how will they react?? Good read from Jay Capian King (break the paywall here.)
It’s Hump Day. Let’s get to the better part of the week with Adrian Peterson’s greatest runs ever. Greatest back of the modern era and it’s not even close.
