Obit watch: October 27, 2025.

Monday, October 27th, 2025

For the record (I got behind over the weekend): June Lockhart. THR.

Other credits include “Babylon 5”, “The John Larroquette Show”, “C.H.U.D. II: Bud the Chud”, three episodes of “Quincy, M.E.”, “Sword of Justice”…and pretty much every other darn thing.

Except she never did a “Mannix”.

Your NFL loser update: week 8, 2025.

They don’t call them the Cincinnati Bungles for nothing.

I apologize for being late in getting this up. I had a series of events (the good kind of event, not the bad kind) yesterday that had me out of the house until 7:30 PM. Among those events was driving down to Gruene to meet up with a relative I had not seen in at least 25 years, and maybe closer to 40. While it was fun, it’s also about 90 minutes each way in pretty heavy traffic, so I pretty much got home and went straight to bed.

Anyway, NFL teams that have a chance to go 0-17:

None.

Seriously, Cincinnati? 39-38?

Oh, well. There are still five winless teams in the NBA, and I’ll probably do an update on Friday.

Bonus firing:

Speaking of the war font…story here. ESPN. 34-14 over “four seasons”, but they’ve lost three out the past four games, and got beat 49-25 by Texas A&M on Saturday.

Texas A&M is 8-0. I’m wondering if there’s a chance that we might see a national champion from Texas this year…and it won’t be the one everyone expected at the start of the season.

Edited to add: also out now, LSU offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Joe Sloan. One story I saw said that the athletic director approached Brian Kelly and told him to fire Sloan. Kelly allegedly said “No, I want to fire these people instead,” and the response was to fire Kelly, then Sloan.
