$5.79 & $5.69/gal for 89 octane (mid-grade) all over San Diego. Love CA all you want, but, the facts are the facts, Tom.

The Google commercial where the dad has his daughter use AI to construct a note to her favorite athlete rather than encourage her to write what she actually wants to tell her hero takes a little chunk out of my soul every time I see it.

You likely missed this while distracted by FSU, Florida and Miami getting outbid by Ohio State for the nation's top high schooler, and other signing day storylines, but the NCAA issued a Lvl 1 violation to Harbaugh for not remembering if he bought a recruit a cheeseburger today.

@Bry_Mac Ohio State fans are being way too hard on their coaches, saying Michigan got their signs and whatnot. Here's the most important snap of the game and Jim Knowles has the *perfect* playcall here: zero scrape exchange vs zone read.
