Here's what happened about 30 minutes ago when the feed of the Texas Tech-Tennessee WCWS softball game cut out on ABC. Kris Budden described the issue as a "power outage" after coming on air with the baseball Squeeze Play show to fill time. It is now the bottom of the 3rd inning.

This was easily my favorite 10 seconds of directing in 2025. The theme kicking in as Spanarkel starts laughing uncontrollably, and the perfectly-timed cuts where every person seemed like they knew they were on camera at that exact moment. It was just perfection.

Here is the cleanest rip I could get so far of Prime Video's new NBA theme song that they will be debuting this season. It is called "Victory" and was composed by Common, Karriem Riggins & James Poyser. This clip is from when it was played briefly on the TNF pregame last night.

Jonathan Vilma to Donald Trump: "We were trying to look up your stats and we wanted to know. How many touchdowns did you have back then? Six, seven?" "But, see, that's how you could've played tight end, right? ... You definitely would've had like six, seven touchdowns there."

The highlights shows are a relic of the past but they are also, to me, the best use of 'Augusta'. When it's played at night, it perfectly captures the feeling of winding down after watching the day's action.
