I will never ever complain about my car smelling like stinky football gear. Because one day it won’t and I will miss these times.

Has Dr. Al-Hashimi been called a nurse by any of her patients yet this season?? if not, #ThePitt needs more female doctors on their writing staff.

History made in Jacksonville 🏆 @UVAFootball defeated Missouri 13–7 in the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl, securing the first 11-win season in program history. Chandler Morris was perfect on third down, and the Cavaliers controlled the game for 38+ minutes. @VirginiaSports | #GoHoos

That was my son! Glad others appreciated it as much as I did! #GoHoos 💙🧡 #taxslayergatorbowl
ACC ballboy snickering in Eli Drinkwitz's face and skipping down the sideline on that stop. Don't tell me these bowl games don't mean anything.

I’m going to have to mute the announcers of the #ACC championship, because they are talking about Miami while plays are happening rather than calling the game. Shut up about Miami while the game is taking place! They are not in the championship game. @ESPN @ACCFootball

Just watched a @salesforce commercial on Sunday Night Football that I found so offensive to Emergency Physicians. I guess it was supposed to be funny, but after all the moral injury and all the exploitation, suggesting we need AI to not call OB-Gyn for a fracture just hit wrong.

Her sons went off to college, and every shift reminded @ERGoddessMD that her EM career will not fill the void. Instead, she figures out how to prioritize the things she loves that were marginalized for emergency medicine. ow.ly/jNvB50Uj3qN

Arizona State got jobbed by the officiating which is being controlled by ESPN. 1) Clear missed blind side block on punt return for TD 2) Clear missed hold on the Ewers TD run 3) One of the worst targeting no calls I’ve ever seen Time and time and time again big brands get bailed out by horrific officiating. These officials actually need to be investigated.

No targeting on Texas with 1 minute left in the Peach Bowl? SEC referee corruption on full display. Sickening

This was 10000000% targeting. NO QUESTION. But of course they don’t call it. They can’t do that to the big bad SEC

This is the very definition of targeting. Horrible no call to protect an SEC team.

Textbook targeting. No flag. The most impactful no-call this season. An outrage.

My November / December @EMNews article is about the sadness I experienced when I became an empty nester. My job did not fill the void. In fact, working made it worse. journals.lww.com/em-news/ful…
