Are any of you Substack creators able to create a new video post right now, or does it default to an audio post (asking for an audio file) when you try to do that?

I was listening to a football player being interviewed and the commentator ask the player "When will you know you have become successful?" The athlete responded "When I have built a home for my father."

Afterwards I was thinking to myself and realized that as a believer I will also know I am a success when I have built a home for my Father.

The King's Grand Return

I love Jonathan Brentner's article "Our King Is Coming" in the “Prophecy Update Newsletter. It offers a profound perspective on Palm Sunday as a preview of Jesus' future return. Jesus' words in Matthew 23:39 promise a day when Jerusalem will truly welcome Him as Messiah.

What many don't realize is that biblical and …

Dear Deborah,

Thank you for opening your heart here with such tenderness and truth. I read your words slowly, feeling the weight of your story, the grief that has moved through your life, and the courage it takes to not only survive such deep loss—but to feel again after so many years of numbness. What you’ve shared is nothing short of sa…

Attachment tricks us into thinking happiness comes from outside—relationships, success, or possessions. But since nothing lasts forever, clinging creates fear, jealousy, and pain when things change. Buddhism says true peace comes from within, not from clinging. Reflect: How has attachment caused me pain? The less we cling, the more we en…

Cal tight end Jermaine Terry enters the portal, Oregon State TE J.T. Byrne ends up at Cal

If we have desperate need on the OL, why have we not seen any commits? Should we be concerned? Can we even field a team?

Yes, we’ll field a team, though it’s probably fair to wonder how good of one, and it’s definitely probably safe to be concerned…

Given the seemingly solid hires by ASU, Colorado and of course ‘Furd, coupled with the current stagnation under Wilcox at Cal, last place in the P12 is definitely on the table. This team doesn’t really land big fish in the portal, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if the preseason media poll pegs the Bears in 12th.

That said, still plenty of time left to land some solid players from the portal, and if they respond to coaching, who knows…

At this point, the site should only list players who are *still* at Cal; easier to keep track. If the new punter has an arm, let him throw a few on 4th down. Maybe the DL can go 2-way, old-school?! Srsly, Wilcox's inability to recruit depth is comical, like greek-tragedy level. I wonder if he confers w/ Fox on who sucks worse at his job, knowing that the feckless, incompetent AD won't get rid of either one of them? "Hey Mark, it's Justin" - "Sup?" "Well ya know how you've lost almost every ga…

There is not a doubt in my mind they will be tabbed for last in the conference. Pretty much every pre-season poll in the Wilcox era has correctly had them in the bottom half of the conference. The football pundits who write for these publications don't have the same unrealistic expectations for the teams as us fans. It really gets ridiculous around Spring ball time when we all start thinking this could be the break-out year based on a report some dude on the team had three one-handed grabs in a six on six shells drill.

The only hope for next year is, with our expectations the lowest they've been in a decade (maybe even lower than they were going into 2012, for some), we will somehow be pleasantly surprised by what we get.

Did we have low expectations going into 2012? That team was loaded and we opened the renovated Memorial Stadium
