An end zone is 10 yards long and 53 yards wide. ESPN’s ill-fated dining experience, The ESPN Zone, lasted for nearly 20 years ago. There is no measurable distance for how long the friend zone can stretch or how long it will last, all that’s known for certain is that the friend zone will trap us at least once in our lifetime.

Those on the US East Coast will see the peak around 12:30 am on Saturday, while the rest of the country (including us) gets a glimpse just after sunset on September 13. Having the special full moon in the sky during the superstitious night is a rare occurrence, says Newsweek, noting the last time was in 2000 and the next one won’t be until 2049.
There’s a high school swimming controversy in Alaska after a state swimming champion had a win taken away – because she had a wedgie. Anchorage School District officials disqualified the girl, a 17-year-old state champion, for violating modesty requirements due to a ‘suit wedgie’ which did not fully cover her buttocks. The girl’s suit was a school-issued uniform, just like her teammates wore. One coach said the swimmer is being punished for her athletic physique and that most competitive swimsuits don’t cover the buttocks. The school says it’s investigating the situation.

This will be the 13th album for Billie Joe, Tre, and Mike, following up 2016’s ‘Revolution Radio’.
Green Day also announced the Hella Mega Tour with Fall Out Boy, Weezer, and the Interrupters which will bring them across the United States in stadiums next summer.

Where do you go when you just absolutely need a burger? When it’s 95 degrees out and you only have a dollar in your pocket for a cold treat. When it’s Sunday and you can’t get a chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A?
That’s right, Wendy’s.
But there’s one thing us consumers could never turn to Wendy’s for. Delicious, greasy, heartburn inducing fast food breakfast… Well, that is until now!
Wendy’s announced in a news release that they are rolling out a brand new breakfast menu in 2020.
The menu will include new items such as a Breakfast Baconator, a Frosty- ccino, and a Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit.
Get excited because you know this new breakfast is going to be fresh… never frozen.
Step aside Jerusalem, Mecca, and Vatican City. Chicago is the new holiest city in the world.
When financial problems almost forced Holy Trinity Church, a Chicago Greek Orthodox church, to close it’s doors something happened that some would consider to be a miracle.
A portrait of the Virgin Mary that decorates the walls at the church began to “weep” which has attracted the attention of people from all faiths.
Is a miracle headed for Chicago? I guess only time will tell.
The roommate who never does their dishes, the landlord who never gets around to fixing the drain, or the father in-law who just can’t accept that his precious little girl isn’t wasting her life on some loser scumbag.
We all know that one D-bag who just get’s the blood boiling inside.
Though, Odell Beckham Jr may have taken the crown for D-bag of the year on Sunday during his debut game with the Cleveland Browns.

That’s right, Beckham was sporting a $300,000 dollar watch during a football game!!!!
Stylish, of course, that’s a great looking watch. But that is such a D-bag move.
That raises the question however… Who’s the biggest D-bag you know?
I present this without comment.
Do you dream of money randomly turning up in your bank account? For one Pennsylvania couple, that dream became a reality in May as a bank accidentally deposited $120,000 into their bank account.
Robert and Tiffany Williams, the couple who received the accidental payday, spent two and a half weeks blowing through the six-figure surprise thanks to a new SUV, two four-wheelers, and a camper among other things.
On June 20th, the bank contacted the couple and told the couple that they owed $107,000 in overdraft charges. The couple was promptly arrested on felony theft charges and released on a $25,000 bail.
White Claws have left their mark on American culture. It’s impossible to escape the grasp that the Claw has on consumers across the country.
According to reports, there’s now a nationwide shortage on the hard seltzer. A spokesperson noted, “We are working around the clock to increase supply given the rapid growth in customer demand.”
White Claw has been there when others haven’t. Friends, family, and coworkers may come and go, but as long as they’re stocked on the shelves, Claws will remain above the law.
