Shane MacGowan of The Pogues died today at 65. I feel drunk just looking at pictures of him. I know what I'll be listening to tonight.

Are the Fringe Bowl Team guys still around? I always thought that was a clever name.

I was discussing Wes Anderson movies with a coworker and defending Life Aquatic as my favorite. One of the best parts are all the Bowie covers in Portuguese by Seu Jorge.

New album from The Kills. The Kills are one of those bands on my short list to get more into.

Last Dinner Party & Durry have been getting lots of play on The Current. Good stuff.

Like a cross between Lorde & Billie Eilish.

Right, just like the WI & IA streaks predate Fleck. It's a Gopher thing, not a Fleck thing. Fleck is a streak-breaker (the Bielema streak hopefully next year). It's just kind of unfathomable that our streak against him is longer than our streak against MI and almost as long as against tOSU.

It's the inexplicable streaks that get me, not so much the individual losses. The NW loss doesn't frustrate me nearly as much as ILL. How are we 0-10 against Bret f**king Bielema? Plus the recently ended streaks against IA & WI. Streaks to, say, MI or OSU are understandable. But the Gophers...

And people graded Fleck an F... Coach had a plan and stuck to it!

I can see it going something similar to the NFL -- big league with more small divisions. Something like this would be cool: B1G West: USC, UCLA, Wash, Ore B1G North: Min, Wisc, Iowa, Neb B1G Central: NW, Ill, Purd, Ind B1G East: Mich, OSU, PSU, MSU B1G Northeast: Rut, MD, ??, ?? Two division...

I was chatting with a Gopher staffer ahead of the MI game. He said MI has 10x the support budget than MN. There's those new mid-rise apartments across the street from the practice field. So theoretically MI could rent an apartment and plant a scout there to watch the Gophers practice. I...

I like hardcover just so I can use the cover flap as a bookmark. But really hardcover & paperback are interchangeable for me. Depends on availability and publisher I guess. I don't use e-readers or audio books. I spend enough time looking at a screen and the radio is for music & news.

#1 Hendrix #2 Prince #3 Charo The rest of the rankings are all interchangeable.

What...no Charo???!!!

Seriously though, what's with all the sudden TS hate? I thought she was universally adored. Is it the Kelce thing and she's intruding on the NFL bro-fest?

Breaking out of the normal tOTB genres, but this song is fantastic.

No one listening to Taylor Swift is listening to CDs, grandpa.

The sequel to FFYR is good too.

Twins game at the Dome. Neighborhood dads took some neighborhood kids. I don't recall the opponent or date. I remember being in awe of the enormity of the place. The Twins won 1-0 on a mid-inning solo HR. When we got back, one of the dads said it was kind of a boring game, not a lot of...
