And let's also remember how much my beloved adored our sister! Bob took Lynne right into his heart and was a living example of lifelong love.

My Bob died yesterday and the loss is nearly unbearable. I’m so overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and condolences. All you guys LOVED my husband. What a joy that is to me! I wish I could reach out to thank each of you personally, but I see you and thank you for loving my Bob.

The revisionism is that the Phantom Menace was hated when it came out. It wasn't. The hype was real. I was there. The Duel of the Fates, the Podrace sequence and on and on. It was AFTER—around the time of Attack of the Clones—when the internet rewrote history to dump on it.
Kyle Mann@The_Kyle_Mann

I will not accept this newfangled historical revisionism claiming the prequels are good. They are not good. We knew they weren't good when we saw them opening night in the theaters. I was 12 years old when TPM came out and I was the biggest Star Wars nerd on the planet. Had all the EU books, toys, video games, you name it. I got Star Wars "banned" from my elementary school because we started two opposing Star Wars clubs and one kid ended up getting so mad arguing about Star Wars he punched another kid. Lol. The principal called us into the office and said "Today, you're joining Star Wars clubs. Tomorrow, you're joining gangs." I had to duct-tape over my Darth Vader backpack to take it to school. All of that, and when we went to see Phantom Menace, we were bored out of our skulls. There's this narrative that hating the prequels is "reddit-coded" or just cynical people who saw some YouTube video about them and decided they're bad. Nope. We knew they were bad at the time. We kind of ironically enjoyed the second 2 films, going in knowing they would be bad and everything, in the same way prequel memes ironically revere the film. The prequels have good elements - the technology was super-impressive for the time. Duel of the Fates. Maul/Qui-Gon/Obi duel. Interesting ideas and some interesting new worlds. There is maybe the bones of a good story buried somewhere in there. But they are painful to watch. Dialog, acting, plot, characters - none of them work. We should care that this teenager is turning into Darth Vader. But we do not care. That's failure on an epic scale. Yes, Disney Star Wars sucked. Yes, Disney Star Wars failed to clear the very low bar of "do not make a Star Wars movie that clearly hates Star Wars." That does not magically make the prequels good. I've heard it said that the prequels are good ideas, poorly done, while the Disney films are bad ideas, well done. I'm not sure if that's quite right, but what I think it means is if George had handed writing, maybe some directing, casting, editing, etc. off to experts, they could have been great. By way of contrast, most individual scenes of the Disney films are well-shot and acted and competently done. There's just no saving the story they tried to tell.

@sawyeurism @itsclementines Even mark Hamil questioned what they did to the character. It’s okay to like something even if it sucks.

"The Last Jedi ruined Luke's character" No Chad, it actually made him a more interesting, complex, and realistic hero.

New year, new list of best games of the year! This has been one of the best years for games in a long time, and picking ten was super tough. I know the conversation around GOTY has been spicy since TGA but I think there's room for more games to get recognition. Happy Holidays!

@TheHerdDispatch They hadn’t run the ball three straight times near the end they’d have been a five win team. Or. They’d have thrown and missed and we were still 4-4. Regardless it was close and that game was within our grasp couldn’t be prouder of the kids for not giving up.

26,727 That's the announced attendance for this year's 75-game. Win or lose, today this team fought with some heart. Today meant more, and even in defeat, I'm proud of this team. Also, fans showed up too. 26K for a 4-4 football team is crazy good work. GA State is next, let's right the ship. Go Herd!!

@TheHerdZone 24-14. I expect growing pains as we don’t have a true QB picked and decided on. But a win is a win.

First call for score predictions between the Herd and Missouri State! Can Marshall snag win number one of the 2025 season and win number one of the Tony Gibson era?

Rough day, Herd Nation. But don’t let this one game dictate how you feel about this team or this season. Georgia is a College Football Playoff contender and very likely a national title team. Remember—this is a completely new group of players learning how to play together. It’s going to take time to build chemistry, and there will be growing pains. But there were some bright spots, and improvement will come as this team gels. Our goals haven’t changed. A winning season and a bowl berth are still right in front of us. We should fully expect to take care of business at home against Mo State and EKU, and from there, we’ll see what kind of year this team can put together. Now it’s on us as fans—show up Saturday. Be loud. Back these players. Back this staff. It’s a long season, and growth is part of the journey. No matter what… Go Herd! #LLTB #WeAreMarshall
