Looking over UVA's seasons, some interesting nuggets... Our best ever season by winning percentage was 1908. We were 7-0-1, the tie being against a private school in Tennessee called Sewanee. The score was 0-0. #gohoos #uva

UVA’s only double digit win season was 1989. We won the ACC with a 10-3 (6-1) record, but lost the Sugar Bowl to Illinois. We’ve had 6 double digit loss seasons including back to back 0-10 seasons in 1959 & 1960 under Richard Voris. We actually went 0-10, and then decided to give him another year?

We had a few good teams in the 1920s, but we only had 2 more one loss teams before the ACC was formed in 1954. Both years we were 8-1. 1941 - Yale (21-19) 1951 - Washington Lee (42-14)

Our golden era was 1900 to WW1. During that stretch we had 5 one loss seasons. The games we lost listed below 1902 - Lehigh (34-6) 1909 - Lehigh (7-11) 1913 - Georgetown (7-8) 1914 - Yale (21-0) 1915 - Harvard (9-0) Didn’t field a team during WW1. I’m sure there was a shady call in that 1913 loss.

Dear Hollywood, I command you to you to put Nathan Fillion in anything he wants, and even to strong arm him into a few that he doesn’t. Thank you for your attention to this matter. #movies #nathanfillion #superman #firefly

It seems that despite the auto industry’s obsession with software-defined vehicles, many car purchasers would forego any number of digital doohickeys, so long as there was enough room in their new cars for multiple Big Gulps.

Sometimes a photo can be more powerful than a video, and I suspect this one will make the rounds in #NY17 tomorrow. Here is a pic of @emilyjaynef.bsky.social - flashing peace signs - as she was forcibly and unnecessarily picked up and removed from Mike Lawler’s Town Hall. Courtesy of @lohud.com:

I don’t really know much about the geography of the Canadian border, but if you all can quickly erect some south facing drive-in movie theaters tout suite, you might be able to make some serious money! #movies #tariffs #canada

The Cavaliers and Tigers are the only two sports team names to win titles in the same sport for college and pros. 🏀Cleveland/Virginia ⚾️Detroit/Missouri/LSU No player has won a title on both. Ty Jerome AND De’Andre Hunter have the chance to do the funniest thing…

That's nothing, I was run over by a 14 ton garbage truck just six months ago. As I lay dying, Christ appeared, and started quizzing me about the hit 80s tv show 'Knight Rider'. I failed the quiz and the Son of God told me it wasn't my time yet.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

As it goes with Will Wade, there are the perceptions, and there are realities. Even if you are among the many who think he's full of shit, you have to admit no one operates with unsentimental honesty like him. This week proves it. And is why McNeese is still riding. www.nytimes.com/athletic/621...

nytimes.comMcNeese’s upset of Clemson made possible by Will Wade’s unsentimental honestySome will see him only as the dirtiest coach in the game. At the same time, he might just be the most honest coach in the game.

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has discovered JADES-GS-z14-0, the most distant known galaxy, observed just 290 million years after the Big Bang. This galaxy is over 1.6K light-years in diameter and has a stellar mass several million times that of the Sun.  Image credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI

Man. What a timeline. Maybe we just live in a bad episode of Sliders.

There is no spoon… “On Wednesday, some employees at the General Services Administration found a creative way to express displeasure with the “Fork in the Road” offer to resign: a spoon emoji. During one video meeting in which members of the agency’s technology-focused branch were encouraged to…

take the offer, some rained down spoon emojis in an associated chat room. On Thursday, G.S.A. workers noticed that the spoon had been removed from the list of emojis permitted in their videoconferencing platform.
