I think the High Point band has identified the proper amount of cowbell.

.@BoiledSports Screenshot from the PurdueSports site. Wait... Boilers playing Jax State on Friday, then the Domers on Saturday? Seems a bit unfair... NBC and the NCAA must really be nervous about Purdue to throw this kind of curveball.

@JeffBrohm @Brady_Brohm Coach: crazy idea- your new Aussie punter might be able to perform long distance drop kicks. Ultimate trick play- looks like a punt, but scores points. Aussies are schooled in their own brand of FB, with laser punting. Check it out: youtu.be/KnaK272SLvM

More of the specific long-distance stuff. Aussie Rules Football emphasizes big leg strength, expert ball control and pinpoint accuracy. Wild sport. youtu.be/ecaBlL96iks

@LegendofSM So, Mad Hatter likely on his way out, with lousy timing too. Do you have think KU will just give DeBord the keys for a season whole they do a search?

.@FOXSports Mad respect for airing @AFL games on @FS1. Greatest sport in the world, and with a bit of promotion, this educated gamble will pay off handsomely. Keep the replays of #FS2 & #FSP, but this sport belongs on the mothership. #Footy #AussieRules #AustralianRules
We lost one of the greats. Without Andy Gill, there would be no Red Hot Chili Peppers, no Rage Against the Machine, or post-punk in general. Massively influential, Gang of Four's 1st 2 albums still pack a wallop 41 years later. RIP.
Andy Gill, founding member and guitarist for the British post-punk outfit Gang of Four, has died at the age of 64 rol.st/2tg4mvw

After a call about an abandoned storage unit, Drexel University's music department inherited almost 7,000 tapes with hidden gems from David Bowie to Stevie Wonder. This spring, the university released a never-heard-before Nat Turner Rebellion R&B album. csmonitor.com/The-Culture/20…

Madonna's YouTube account autotuned her off-key Eurovision performance. Here it is compared to the original di.gg/126
The label wanted a corporate sound, and the Tubes went one step further and gave them a corporate image.” Read about The Completion Backward Principle in the Niagara Gazette's article in advance to their show this Saturday (May 18) at the @RivieraTheatre! niagara-gazette.com/news/nig…

I wish I took your picture 1000 more times, my beautiful neighbour. For all the history lovers, architecture lovers, Paris lovers: we're feeling the same helplessness and sadness. Here’s to our Notre Dame, who will continue to inspire even at her darkest moment #NotreDame 🕊️

Crazy to think that a 5’9 receiver from Purdue is going to win the Heisman trophy this year.
