Are we getting UFRs this week?

You have uncovered one of the many reasons that I hate what Elon Musk has done to Twitter. I do not have (and do not want) a Twitter account. Brian and Seth usually use Twitter to alert us to delays or changes to the usual posting schedule. But now that chronological feeds hide behind a login, Twitter is even more useless because I cannot find current updates on Brian's and Seth's (or others') feeds.

I stumbled across a twitter 'reader' site that shows things chronologically: nitter.net/"insert twitter handle here" I used to have twitter but deleted it a few years ago. I use nitter to check the folks I still like to keep tabs on. It's a bit clunky, but it works. 

*edited to add* Nitter also allows you to see replies which you can't see on Twitter if you don't have an account.

Those feeds do not exist if you do not have an account. If you are not signed in and head to Brian's feed, you now see a pinned post from 2016 about Scott Frost's mom, followed by a 2022 post about Purdue basketball scholarships for a city-destroying skeleton, and various other posts of varying untimeliness. For users without an account, Twitter/X now orders the default feed by popularity. There is no way to sort by new or see a particular account's most recent posts.

I thought we were getting guest UFRs this week: a Rutgers analyst is doing the defense and we're getting the offensive review from OSU.

What, you think they can just analyze a full football game from TV film? This level of analysis requires video at a scale that requires a 'vast network' of 'associates' to help out, and I don't if you've been following the news, but those days are over.

Seth will not be bullied despite your overwhelming numbers and the bylaws are unclear on this subject. This could be the worse scandal ever...well other than...
