How 'bout that Shedeur Sanders? Everything we expected, and more?Exactly what I expected, especially after never practicing with the first team. But getting knocked around a bit will hopefully be good for him. Shut him and daddy up for a week or two, at least.

When I pulled this one up, the blue category answers were occupying the top row. Don't think I've ever had that happen before.Interesting. I would have assumed that we all start the same way, pre-shuffle. Turns out not to be the case.

We might, but I always shuffle once before I start, so I don't know what it was when I first pulled it up. My guess is they're all different, but there's only one way to find out.When I pulled this one up, the blue category answers were occupying the top row.

with 44 to follow.
The moon is waning. Morning stars are Jupiter, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus and Venus. Evening stars are Jupiter, Mars, Mercury, Neptune, Saturn and Uranus.
On this date in history:
In 1558, the Elizabethan Age begins when Britain's Queen Elizabeth I ascended to the throne upon her half-sister, Queen Mary's death.
In 1800, the U.S. Congress convened at the Capitol in Washington for the first time.
In 1869, the Suez Canal in Egypt was opened, linking the Red Sea and the Mediterranean.
In 1871, the National Rifle Association was founded by a journalist and a lawyer with a mission to improve its members' marksmanship skills through the organization of rifle clubs across the country.
In 1903, the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party splits into two factions: The Bolsheviks (Russian for "majority"), led by Vladimir Lenin, and the Mensheviks (Russian for "minority"), led by Julius Martov. The Bolsheviks would eventually morph into the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
In 1968, NBC angered football fans across the United States when it pre-empted the final minute of an Oakland Raiders-New York Jets game to air children's movie Heidi. Viewers jammed the phone lines at telephone companies, the network and local police to vent their frustrations.
In 1973, President Richard Nixon uttered the infamous words, "I am not a crook," in response to reporters' questions about the Watergate scandal.
In 1989, Czechoslovakia's Velvet Revolution began following the put down of a student demonstration by riot police. A larger uprising against the country's communist government succeeded on Dec. 29, ending 41 years of Communist rule.
In 1993, by a vote of 234-200, the United States House of Representatives passed a resolution to establish the North American Free Trade Agreement.
In 2006, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved marketing of silicone gel-filled breast implants, ending a 14-year moratorium on them.
In 2023, citing a lack of confidence, the board of OpenAI -- developer of the ChatGPT platform -- removed CEO Sam Altman from his position. The company rehired him less than a week later.
