The sports product itself ended up being exemplary, including a major upset victory in the final bout by American Justin Gaethje over the heavily favored Topuria. But outside the octagon, advertisements for sports betting, crypto coins and sports betting platforms fueled by crypto coins, and artificial intelligence-generated military propaganda videos, along with heavyweight contender Josh Hokit’s postfight interview proclaiming that “Michelle Obama is a man,” all drew criticism online. (Even White criticized Hokit’s statement.)

It’s not just that the primary “supe” villain Homelander is a narcissistic bully who demands the world worship him to fill the gaping emotional void inside himself. (remind you of a certain world leader?) It’s also not just the way Homelander had gold statues of himself erected while throwing all of his political opponents into secret “black site” concentration camps (plotting that Kripke says was written years before Trump and his followers actually made these things reality.) Or the way in which those who worked the hardest to satisfy his whims and cement his rule wound up tossed aside the moment they had outlived their

Ice T Lyrics from Bitches 2: I knew this guy who was never that fly Couldn't act cool even when he tried When we played rough, he always cried When he told stories, he always lied A Black brother who was missin' the cool part He had the color but was missin' the true heart When we would fight he would always go down quick So he took karate and he still got his ass kicked But now he's married and he kicks his wife's ass Says it comes from problems that he had in the past Doesn't like Blacks, claims he's upper class Joined the police, got himself a badge Now he rolls the streets and he's out to jack Doggin' young brothers 'cause they usually don't fight back Got a White partner and he asked for that And every night another head they crack So now he's big man but he really ain't shit

CBN (cannabinol) is one of the most talked-about minor cannabinoids in 2025 — especially for sleep. But despite its growing popularity, true scientific knowledge about CBN is widely misunderstood. Much of the internet still repeats outdated claims, incomplete summaries, or marketing myths.

Penn State’s current D1 Dual Meet Win Streak is at 75. The Nittany Lions have not lost a dual meet since a 19-17 loss at Iowa on January 31, 2020, just a few weeks after Freestyle injuries to Brady Berge and Anthony Cassar decimated chances for a National Championship 5-peat. That 2020 National Tourney was itself shut down a few weeks later by the global pandemic. The Oklahoma State Cowboys own the record for longest Dual Meet Winning Streak at 76, which began March 5, 1937 and ended January 19, 1951 with a loss to Oklahoma. With a win over NDSU, Penn State will tie OkSt at 76, and with a win over Stanford, they will overtake the Cowboys and lead alone at 77. Going forward, Iowa owns the record for longest Dual Meet Unbeaten Streak, at 84. Would you be surprised to know that this streak was under Tom Brands and not Dan Gable? This streak began after a 19-15 loss to Oklahoma State on January 5, 2008, and continued as both a Winning AND Unbeaten streak until a 15-15 tie with OkSt on January 16, 2011 ended the Winning Streak at 69. From there, it continued as an Unbeaten Streak, until Oklahoma State again ended it, with a 17-16 victory on January 8, 2012, via the then-newly-introduced tiebreaker criteria rules.
2025 01 box score for Penn State 30, Iowa 8.

Cael Sanderson: I don’t know, we’re trying to figure things out, and the kids are making decisions, deciding what they want to do. He weighed in lower so he could move back down. Obviously, you’re doing all the math on those things before you weigh in. I really don’t know what the future looks like in there. Maybe [he’ll fill in longer], I really don’t know the answer to that. He could do really well at any of the three bottom weight classes. He has a big frame; he could bulk up in the future if he wanted to. We just have several guys that we are confident in, obviously at 141 [lbs]. It was a good opportunity to give him that match on the road in front of a full house. You want to see how guys do, just give him that opportunity for training purposes and preparation. He did a nice job. He was going up a couple weight classes from where he was maybe a month ago, but he obviously responded well, and we’re excited.

Once a beacon for high-flying, offensive football, Gundy leaves Oklahoma State with the Cowboys ranked 81st in total offense and 74th in scoring nationally in 2025. He agreed to a restructured contract in order to remain the program's coach late last year following a 3-9 finish to the 2024 season. Oklahoma State added more than 60 new players to its roster prior to the 2025 season. After a Week 1 win over UT-Martin, the Cowboys suffered a 69-3 drubbing on the road at Oregon before falling to in-state Group of 5 rivals Tulsa in Week 4. The Cowboys gave up 11 plays of 15-plus yards, made just three trips to the red zone and were outgained 424-403 in the loss to Tulsa -- the program's first home loss to the Golden Hurricane since 1951. Baylor opens Big 12 play against Baylor on Saturday. Monday marked the 17th anniversary of Gundy's infamous "I'm a man, I'm 40" rant.
