Sydney Thomas mocked LSU head coach Lane Kiffin before Halloween with a joke about dressing up as him losing to Ole Miss. The costume idea, for whatever reason, ended up not making the cut this year.Maybe she couldn’t figure out how to work boobs into the whole look. I don’t know, that’s purely speculation on my part. And before you laugh, with the costume she chose, she managed to make them part of it.Sydney went a step further with her Erling Haaland-inspired look. She reminded us that putting boobs on someone is truly one of the best ways to pay tribute to them. Again, don’t laugh. Not yet, anyway, you haven’t seen what I’m talking about.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW!A few days ago, the internet’s favorite ring girl shared her Halloween costume on Instagram with a carousel of pictures and a “Haappy Haaloween” caption. She tagged the Norwegian soccer star in the post.One of the images, the fourth one in the carousel for the impatient ones out there, is a face-swap type one, thanks to the power of AI. It put Haaland’s head on Thomas’ body while in her Halloween costume.PAUL SKENES AND LIVVY DUNNE’S HALLOWEEN COSTUME WILL ENRAGE ANYONE TIRED OF RUSHING THROUGH HOLIDAYSSome, I fear, missed the point here. They mistook a touching tribute to the World Cup star as something to be terrified of. I don’t believe that’s the intent.Sydney Thomas was having some fun with it, is all. Those make for some of the best costumes. They also make for some of the best tributes you’re going to find.Without question, the Lane Kiffin costume would have been good. The Erling Haaland costume, however, and the tribute that it includes is great.It checks several boxes. Arguably the most important box it checks is the tribute box. It’s never too late to go viral with your Halloween costume.

The pro wrestling conversation on social media usually ranges from hotly contested debates between which company is better, WWE or AEW, fans complaining about the way their favorite wrestler is booked or there being too many commercials on TV. OK, maybe the last one is just me tweeting into the void.Regardless, there was a lot of chatter online about independent wrestling being “dead.” The noise around the notion appeared to spark when Produce Wrestling and Absolute Intense Wrestling (AIW) announced hiatuses for different reasons for the end of the year. For what it’s worth, Produce already has a show booked for Feb. 25.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK PRO WRESTLING COVERAGEOutKick Dropkick has put the spotlight on several independent shows this year with a few different promotions, including Pandemonium Pro Wrestling, Awesome Championship Wrestling, Produce Wrestling, Gamechanger Wrestling, Fight Factory Wrestling and others. So, as social media wrote an obituary for the indies, OutKick Dropkick made its way to Middletown, New Jersey, on Friday night to take in Fight Factory’s No Thanks Given and to see whether the vibes would be more of a concert or a wake. It didn’t disappoint.Ben Bishop, who made a surprise appearance at Total Nonstop Action Wrestling’s (TNA) Bound for Glory pay-per-view assembled a team for an elimination eight-person tag team match against MADE. Richard Holliday, Jack Vaughn and Madisyn Maxwell went up against Made. Kristin Blaze then defeated Rachel Ley in a preview of what women’s wrestling may look like in the future. Even WWE Hall of Famer Arn Anderson showed up to support his sons as they took on Sent 2 Salute.The main event featured a no holds barred match between TNA star KC Navarro and Steve Gibki for the latter’s openweight championship. The match ended with Gibki spearing Navarro through a table and putting his opponent in the Hell Hammer for the win.The show was held at the Middletown Sports Complex, which is not a large venue by any means. But pro wrestling fans still showed up to fill the available seats. Most lasted through the chilly conditions since the event took place on a literal ice rink, which is also the home of the North American Hockey League’s New Jersey Titans.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGEThere certainly was no funeral for independent wrestling. In fact, attendees were actively engaged in the sport that was happening in and outside of the ring.OutKick Dropkick asked Bishop whether he believed the indies were dead.”I mean, look at it, look at it here. In Middletown, New Jersey, on a Friday night, you could be doing anything,” Bishop said. “We’re close to (New York City). There’s a ton of things you can do. We got about 300, almost 400-plus here in Middletown, New Jersey, here at Fight Factory. You can thank me for the house. So yeah, this whole notion, indies are dead, all that stuff, it’s just words, it’s just noise. It comes up every few months. Everyone wants to pretend that they think that when they were wrestling on the indies, it was so much better. It is what it is. Things evolve, things change. I believe that indie wrestling is alive and well.”Bishop is right.Anyone who was in the facility on Friday night could have been doing anything else. WWE’s “Friday Night SmackDown” was on TV, “World of Warcraft’s” new game just dropped, there was basketball and hockey going on at the same time.And maybe you don’t know who Ben Bishop is. Maybe you didn’t see his “curtain call” with Holliday, Vaughn and Tommy Invincible at War on the Shore 3 that had social media talking over the summer. And all of that is OK.OutKick Dropkick asked Killer Kross his thoughts about the same notion. Kross works for a big-time company in Major League Wrestling, which has multiple media rights deals and partnerships with CMLL and New Japan Pro-Wrestling. However, he’s gone on his own tours in the U.S. and abroad for promotions big and small.Kross said he wasn’t necessarily plugged into the conversation but suggested that the attendance at independent events undercut the notion that independent wrestling is dying.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW!”No, that’s hilarious to me,” he said. “These are people who don’t attend indies that are saying that, and I don’t even think they’re saying it to be malicious. I think they’re just innocently saying it because You know, when, when you’re a young adult and you have a very busy life, if you’re not paying attention to something, or like you’re not paying attention to the big main thing that everybody’s paying attention to, then you innocently will think that it’s not important cause it doesn’t have your attention.”But when you go to an independent show where there’s 2,000-3000 people there, That kind of speaks for itself. I don’t get involved with neurotic conversations online. You know what I mean? And it’s OK. Anyone can express their opinion about anything they want. I don’t get hung up on that, but like … I don’t know, I’m not emotionally prone to these types of conversations. Some people are like, ‘Well, I gotta drop everything I’m doing and respond.’ I’m like, I don’t have the time. I don’t have the time.”Pro wrestlers who aren’t exclusively signed to the major corporate companies are working their tails off to make a living in their sport and to put on a good show for those who do come out and see them.Not every venue is going to be Allegiant Stadium or Wembley Stadium. The pro wrestlers who work these shows know that and work together to put on the best matches they can to keep the fans coming back for more.Is independent wrestling dying? No chance.

Alanis Morissette’s recent decision to publicly identify as pansexual has cast her famous same-sex kiss with Sarah Jessica Parker on “Sex and the City” in a new light.The singer, 52, opened up about her sexuality during an appearance on the “Handsome” podcast after previously discussing the memorable 2000 scene on Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” podcast in September.Morissette appeared on “Sex and the City” in the season 3 episode “Boy, Girl, Boy, Girl…” as Dawn, a woman who kisses Parker’s character, Carrie Bradshaw, during a game of spin the bottle.ALANIS MORISSETTE SAYS WEBSITES WERE BUILT TO PLOT HER MURDER AFTER ‘JAGGED LITTLE PILL’ SUCCESSDuring her September appearance on “Call Her Daddy,” Morissette revealed that she helped pitch the storyline to the show’s producers.”I reached out to them and I said, ‘Might it be a nice time for Carrie to experience a lesbian moment?’” Morissette said. “And they said, ‘Why, yes. We were thinking the same thing.’”GET ENTERTAINMENT SCOOP DELIVERED RIGHT TO YOUR EMAIL BY CLICKING HERE”I think we literally had the same idea at the same time,” she added. “That happens.”Morissette also reflected on the kiss itself, describing the moment with Parker as “easy” and “buoyant.””I do recall kissing her,” she said. “It was very pleasant.”LIKE WHAT YOU’RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSMorissette’s comments resurfaced after she publicly identified as pansexual during Tuesday’s episode of the “Handsome” podcast, co-hosted by Tig Notaro, Fortune Feimster and Mae Martin.The conversation turned to the singer’s rocky dating history with men.”I’m sorry for the men that hurt you, but I’m not sorry for the songs that came from it,” Feimster told Morissette before asking, “Did it make you want to be a lesbian at any point?””I’m pansexual, so, yeah,” Morissette replied.”Wait, you’re not really pansexual, are you?” Notaro asked.”I am,” Morissette confirmed.”You’re supposed to come into the ‘Handsome’ podcast leading with, ‘I’m pansexual,’” Notaro said.”You know, I like to leave it for the epilogue,” Morissette responded. “I like to confuse people on the way out.”PUT YOUR ENTERTAINMENT KNOWLEDGE TO THE TEST AND SEE HOW YOU SCOREMorissette previously spoke about sexuality during a 2008 interview with The Advocate.”I think it’s a beautiful rite of passage for everyone to play with their sexuality at some point, so I did exactly that,” she said. “And it was great!””I’ve felt love from the gay community since I was really young because all my friends were gay,” Morissette added. “There’s a passion, a presence, and a curiosity with a lot of gay people that I meet, and that aliveness is such a special quality to me.”

When SEC programs hire head coaches, a key part of their interview process must be testing their ability to do marketing and promotion.Few, if any, coaches excel at marketing, like LSU Tigers head coach Lane Kiffin, who has worked tirelessly to convince the broader college football public that losing games should not be punished because of SEC stadiums. Vanderbilt head coach Clark Lea campaigned in 2025 by telling fans, voters and media that SEC teams should be given preferential treatment over all other conferences if they have the same records.Then there’s Steve Sarkisian.SUDDENLY, STEVE SARKISIAN IS SINGING A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TUNE ABOUT PLAYING OHIO STATEThe Texas Longhorns head coach said in 2025 that excluding his 9-3 team from the College Football Playoff would be a “disservice to the sport.” A disservice! College football would forever be lesser if a 9-3 Texas team was not included, despite several awful performances against a bad Florida team, a bad Mississippi State team, a bad Kentucky team, and getting blown out by Georgia.Sark complained about the result of the 2025 matchup between the Longhorns and Ohio State Buckeyes hurt his team’s resume, saying that even in a 14-7 loss, Texas shouldn’t be punished for scheduling a tough opponent. There’s some truth to that, sure, but after their miraculous comeback in this year’s game, he had a totally different perspective.”We could be like other teams and play Jones Junior High and win 66-0,” he said to reporters after beating OSU. “I don’t know what that does for us. Tonight we found out that we can (win big games).”When they lose, the result shouldn’t matter. When they win, it’s a huge boost to their resume compared to teams that played lesser opponents. Shocking.COLLEGE FOOTBALL FANS AND MEDIA RIP SEC REFS OVER CONTROVERSIAL FORWARD FUMBLE CALL IN TEXAS-MISSOURI GAMEWell, Sark is back, and this time, the marketing effort is to convince those watching that the Longhorns are actually humble little “nobody believes in us” underdogs. Against Missouri.”I’m really proud of our football team overall because our guys, they’re not naive to noise. As much as I would love to say, tune it all out — and we try our best to do that — I could hear the talk getting on the plane yesterday. I could hear the talk when we got here,” he said after their 34-20 win. “Nobody believed we’d win the game. Nobody thought we were going to come here and win the game. Nobody thought we were we were tough enough at the line of scrimmage. Everyone thought we’d be pushed around.”He continued, saying that the “DNA” of Texas is “toughness,” which showed through against the Tigers.”The DNA of this organization is mental and physical toughness, and I think that poured out of our pores today in this ball game today, and so I’m very proud of them for that. I’m very proud of the way they hung together, the way they responded to adversity,” Sarkisian said.And finally, claimed that the win showed they’re “big game hunters.””We are big game hunters, and we showed up again today,” he added.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGESure! It was a good win for Texas, on the road against a solid, top-25 level opponent. They did face some “adversity,” mainly falling behind after a shaky first quarter, then fighting their way back. But acting as though Texas, literally Texas, with arguably the most expensive roster in the sport, or at worst, top 2-3, is a “nobody believed in us” team is ridiculous. Beyond ridiculous.Texas also had some help, well, a lot of help from the officials. A number of questionable calls went against the Tigers, including what appeared to be a completed pass on a big third down deep in Texas territory, and what seemed like a clear incomplete pass from Arch Manning on 3rd-and-10 being ruled a fumble that gave the Longhorns a 12-yard gain and a first down. Sure enough, that drive resulted in a touchdown and what wound up being 21 unanswered points.ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!That’s not to say officiating was the reason Texas won, but it sure didn’t hurt. Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz implied as much after the game, when asked about the number of calls that went against his team.”If I say what I want to say, I’m going to get fined until I don’t have any retirement, and I’m not going to do that. I’m not going to blame the officials. That would be disrespectful to Coach Sarkisian and his team,” he said, according to On3.Even the announcing team, including Jesse Palmer, were flabbergasted at the officiating.”If you’re a Missouri fan, if you’re Eli Drinkwitz, you are livid because it does feel like a lot of these calls are going against Missouri today,” he said.SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTERAgain, this isn’t to say Texas didn’t deserve to win, they outplayed Missouri on the field and were the better team. It’s the attitude that Sarkisian brings, that they were just humble underdogs clinging to a win against the big, bad Missouri Tigers that’s the marketing campaign.By acting as though every win his team gets is a monumental achievement, it builds the case that should Texas trip up against, say, a struggling LSU or on the road against a bad Texas A&M team, they can’t be punished for it. It’s marketing. It’s classic SEC. And it’s ridiculous.

President Donalkd J. Trump shared a cartoon meme of UFC CEO Dana White as the White House press secretary on Sunday, Nov. 8, 2026
PALM BEACH, Florida – One day after offering the job of press secretary to Dana White, President Donald Trump on Sunday shared a “Family Guy”-style video in which the UFC CEO is taking questions from reporters at the White House.
“Trump made me press secretary. I brought help,” the cartoon version of White tells reporters.
A journalist is shown asking: “Is Trump a threat to democracy?”
White then beckons fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov to deal with the reporter, who gets instantly body-slammed to the floor.
A blue-haired journalist sporting a nose ring asks: “What are Trump’s pronouns?”
“Ladies,” says White, as two female fighters grapple with the reporter, before nearly taking on each other.
“Save it for next Saturday,” White urges the gals.
When White calls for final questions, a reporter hiding in the seats of the briefing room asks: “Is Michelle Obama running in 2028?”
An animated version of fighter Josh Hokit answers with the viral remark his real-life counterpart voiced in the Octagon in June: “Michelle Obama is a man. Am I right, America?”
Numerous journalists are shown beaten to a pulp a the conclusion of the press briefing, along with a burning trash fire.
“How was the briefing?” a cartoon President Trump asks White.
He responds: “Fiery, but mostly peaceful.”
WATCH:

The creator of the cartoon, Dr. Clown, PhD on X, was shocked his creation caught the attention of Trump.
“HOLY CR*P!” he exclaimed in all capital letters. “THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES JUST POSTED MY DANA WHITE MEME!!! I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING!!! ”
As WorldNetDaily reported, Trump offered the job of press secretary to White on Saturday, saying: “I am pleased to announce that the Great Dana White, a violent Fighter and Warrior, has been offered the job of Press Secretary of the United States.
“I have requested that he bring with him assistants, even though some are not from our Country, of Islam Makhachev, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Justin Gaethje, Daniel Cormier, Amanda Nunes, and Kayla Harris.
“We need these people to defend us against the Lunatic Left. Dana will be a Press Secretary like none other. Dana, please take the job!”

In response to Trump’s offer, White told reporters in London on Saturday he was flying back to America to discuss the matter with the president.
“I’m flying to Washington, D.C., right now,” White said.
A reporter asked: “You do a lot. How do you believe you could balance what you do at the moment alongside that?”
“Yeah, I got a lot of jobs already,” White responded with a laugh.
When asked about conversations he’s had with the president, White only said: “I’m going to meet with him. We have a meeting on Monday, so I’m sure we’ll have a lot to talk about after that.”

J.J. McCarthy had two basic issues during his time with the Minnesota Vikings: Ability. And durability.Since his trade to the New York Giants, McCarthy has shown no ability problems because he beat out Jameis Winston as the team’s starter and even provided something of a spark in helping New York beat the Houston Texans in overtime.So no ability issue.But Sunday presented a durability issue.McCarthy left the game against the Philadelphia Eagles with what the team is saying is a hip injury.PATRICK MAHOMES SUFFERS APPARENT ELBOW INJURY ON THROWING ARM BUT RETURNS TO FACE THE NEW YORK JETSSo, back to Jameis Winston for the Giants.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE.

He was sacked five times in the first half.He returned to the sideline and was seen encouraging his teammates as if he intended to return to the game. Despite what appeared to be too much pain to function, McCarthy returned to the game in the fourth quarter. It is possible he agreed to take a shot to deaden the pain and return.
