@PhilBurger813 @NFLSTROUD Saw them at The Sound in Clearwater last year. Only a couple of the original members are still with them, but it was a fantastic show.

For me it's Chicago 25 or 6 to 4 that brings back memories of the Rick and Tom Show! With @NFLSTROUD always saying wait for the trumpets to go dun dun dun dun.....and @TomWJones don't take the PSU slander! #WeAre

Well, folks, personal news: After 7 years, today is my last day with @latimes. It's been a privilege working with some of the world's best journalists at my hometown paper. Thank you to everyone who's supported my work. I'm not done telling climate stories. More news to come.

Thrilled to be joining @TheWrap as Media Editor I’ll be editing media coverage, like at VF, but also getting the opportunity to report and write regularly. Starting Monday!

@jprowell @NFLSTROUD I hear ya. I think I explained on the pod why she might have explained her ballot the way she did.

@TomWJones @NFLSTROUD I think it's almost certain she assumed UF won the game or something to that affect. Like we've seen countless times though - controversy multiplies when someone avoids admitting the mistake instead of embracing the truth.

Bombast? No, it’s Tombast! Tom Jones reacts to everyone reacting to an AP poll voter who snubbed USF in an obvious mistake (she likely assumed UF won). Chill out Bulls nation. Back and better than ever Rick&Tom. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/spo…

@needleknight @NFLSTROUD @SportsDayTB Actually, I think there COULD be a reason why. But this isn't really the platform to talk discuss with nuance. If you listened to what I said on the pod, I mentioned why she MIGHT have not been forthcoming if it was mistake.

@TomWJones @NFLSTROUD @SportsDayTB It’s important to say it’s not just her - errors and omissions are human and journalists are human. There’s no room for treating her with such animosity. Full stop. There is however zero reason to not be forthcoming about a mistake or oversight in her profession.

@TomWJones @NFLSTROUD @SportsDayTB I hear you. We don’t know for certain if she made an unintentional mistake or not. Only she can clarify that. I just feel it’s important to own that. If you can’t, it’s a major problem.

@needleknight @NFLSTROUD @SportsDayTB Hard to explain here in limited characters. I stand behind all that I said on the pod. I think she made an unintentional mistake and I'm hesitant to judge her response to it.

@NFLSTROUD @SportsDayTB @TomWJones I hear you and appreciate the perspective. Could we agree that personal integrity is important in journalism? Is not the most important thing to disclose an error or oversight? If it’s not, we have bigger problems.

@jprowell @NFLSTROUD Like I said on the pod, her answer was not great, but I still believe she simply made an unintentional mistake. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what my gut tells me.

@NFLSTROUD In one sense Sawyer was correct. Her single vote doesn’t add that much weight to the final poll. But it’s like saying that the other 61 AP voters presumably did their job properly so her lack of focus was fine. It looks horrible. @TomWJones

#Bucs rookie WR Tez Johnson with 8 catches for 58 yards and a touchdown. He celebrated with a front handspring and a back layout.

@audsnyder4 So sorry to hear this news. You're a terrific writer and reporter and your PSU coverage was outstanding. Terribly disappointed to hear about The Athletic's decision. PSU coverage is one of the reasons I subscribe.

So… After nearly 7 years at The Athletic, my time with the company has come to an end. They no longer want to cover Penn State with a full-time beat writer. Proud of the work I did and the stories I told. Thank you to so many who subscribed. Time to figure out what’s next!

Ovi! Gr8! Alex! There are many ways to say it. You can also call Alex Ovechkin this: The Greatest Goal Scorer in NHL History. So cool to watch him break the record. #NHL
