Disney! Wheeee!

The Disney parks are quite obviously ridiculous things for childless adults to indulge. Which is exactly why they're so fun, if you're willing to give in to it. Yep. From my own experience, I first went to the parks in 1987 at 11 years old and didn't make it back until last year. It wasn't until ar...

Well it’s official: Guardians is the best ride in WDW. It's incredible. There isn't an on-ride Youtube clip of Guardians that comes close to doing it justice, especially once you get into the dark ride following the lift hill. I also thought sitting in the back made for a somewhat different & more ...

2023-2024 #22 Pitt Super Panthers (Football) Sports Thread

Pitt is actually putting together a really good class. They have 19 commits, including three that Rivals has ranked as 4-star players. Rivals has them ranked 14th overall right now, but they have three unannounced commitments and all three are believed to be 4-star players. One is expected to be 4-s...

Some dude who committed on 6/11 just decommitted lol This was Chasen Johnson, a 3-star corner from Florida. He just committed to UCF the other day. It sounds like this was expected, to some degree.

This has potential: https://youtu.be/XF0kMT39GNY They're revealing some gameplay of it today on UbiForward, so I'll be really interested to see that. From what I understand, it's an open-world game, in some ways carrying on what was rumored to be in Star Wars: 1313. It reportedly runs on the Snowdr...

Is there an adult contemporary hit from the 1980s-early 1990s that was more of a banger than this? I'm not sure there is.

As a Pitt fan, I was really happy to see Kancey go in the first round as expected. As a Seahawks fan, I was bummed out that he didn't fall just one more pick, because I think Seattle would have taken him at 20. That's twice in six years that I was hoping a Super Panther would fall to them only to be...

So you're probably not aware that R5 is Force-sensitive, and that he blew his own motivator on purpose to ensure Luke ended up with R2D2. (Non-canon comic from 1999 called, and I'm serious here, "Skippy the Jedi Droid") This was also a short story about R5 in the "A Certain Point of View" book that...

It hasn't been formally announced yet by player and/or coach, but it sounds like Pitt finally landed a wideout in the portal. From what Peak is mentioning on PL, Florida transfer Daejon Reynolds is enrolled at Pitt and on campus. Supposedly he's going to announce it soon. Pretty good write-up on Rey...

Not really surprised by V Davis transferring out. Peak mentioned on a recent podcast and said he may likely transfer someplace closer to home for him. Peak usually doesn't mention roster rumors unless he's fairly certain about it. By all accounts Davis was a solid teammate and I don't think ever lac...

You guys that have been to WDW recently, did you use the Mears bus service? At $32 round trip it seems like a pretty good deal and cheaper than an Uber, but the "limited stops" would have me concerned. We used Mears for standard service on both of our recent trips and it was OK. We used them for ro...

Does UCLA have any NFL prospects? He's a NTP66 nugget to play for so I doubt this is a flex on the loyalty he's garnered. I'm sure for non-NFL bound seniors this last bowl game is exciting. For UCLA, Charbonnet will almost certainly get some looks as an NFL RB. He's pretty good. Dorian Thompson-Rob...

I don't see a shot at Pitt there..
I'm probably reading too much into it. When I first read the quote, the initial impression I got was that it was delivered with this sort of snarky "well, OUR players aren't opting out," or "OUR players put their team first" tone to it.

Depth chart thoughts, not that any of that really matters... 1. Haba being listed was a bit unexpected. PL board is still skeptical as to whether he plays because he was hurt and he accepted the Senior Bowl invite, but I guess we'll see. 2. Last ride of the Patti Wagon. Let's go. 3. Hammond listed a...
