Everton have been playing dreadful footy since the calendar flipped to 2024, but hey - at least I caught wind of another beautiful woman (Giulia Bould, of BBC Merseyside) who shares my Toffees life sentence.  At least we've built ample character these last few years! And thank Mother of Fuck, we

I am not watching, but Scotchy's work ethic called and the content monster shall not rest.  So you get the below half-assedry! 10MW Colorado State (+2.5) v. 7MW Texas (6:50, TNT) I feel like this is an animal-fondler Derby.  One knows all the Texas jokes already, but have you BEEN to Fort
