France Offers to Refund Louisiana Purchase After Watching Saints Play in Paris thesadvocate.com/2026/10/fea…
Look to the right of the sun...do you see the sun dog? We've had lots of cirrus clouds in the area over the last couple of days and those clouds are composed of ice crystals. The ice crystals bend (refract) the sunlight passing through, revealing the colors of the rainbow.

From ESPN Research: The Saints are the first team without a 10-yard rusher in a game since the Buccaneers against the Chiefs in 2022. It's the 3rd time in Saints history that the team has not had a 10-yard rusher in a game. Other times were in 1993 and 1980.
LSU implodes at the end of that drive...the upside? They possessed the ball for half of the 3rd quarter.

Someone unleash Cousin Eddie on the Knicks front office
The Knicks' assistant coaches did not receive their championship rings during Tuesday's ceremony, despite being handed ring boxes, according to league sources.
Many longtime employees at Madison Square Garden will not receive rings at all, per team sources.
Those employees got their hopes up in late September, when they were sent a fake championship ring offer as part of a phishing test.

JOSEPHINE FORMS
Subtropical Storm #Josephine has formed off of the U.S. East Coast as of Wednesday afternoon. The National Hurricane Center will initiate advisories at 4 PM CDT.
Josephine will move northeastward and away from the U.S. over the next couple of days after producing some high surf, coastal erosion, and gusty winds in some areas.

NHC will initiate advisories on Subtropical Storm Josephine (formerly AL93), located offshore of the U.S. East Coast, at 500 PM EDT (2100 UTC).
Just an unreal view of Super Typhoon #Champi in '3D' as it churns through the western Pacific as the equivalent of a Category 5 hurricane. Maximum sustained winds peaked at 185 mph earlier today, making it one of the strongest storms on the planet so far in 2026.
It is still unclear whether it will present a direct threat to Taiwan, but there is at least some hope that it will recurve east of the island nation. It is forecast to weaken some before closest approach to Taiwan. @WAFB

Today in 1996, a frustrated Jim Mora faces the media and gives his iconic “diddly poo” speech. Perhaps the GOAT of all quotably pissed off head coaches.
